"I understand, old lady. I'll go prepare the gifts right away, and our family will go to thank them tomorrow morning."
"Okay, I'll go with you then."
Early the next morning, Wu Aijun and Aunt Zhao came to the Li family with gifts.
As soon as Aunt Zhao entered the door, she held Li Wenjing's hand tightly and kept thanking Li Wenjing for saving Goudan.
"Yulan, you don't know, I used to have a little girl. She died because she ate a peanut and it got stuck in her throat. She didn't get timely treatment! If Jing hadn't intervened in time, Goudan would have ended up like her aunt yesterday!"
Aunt Zhao was crying while talking to Xia Yulan.
"Sister-in-law, you're too polite. Don't mention Goudan. Even if Jingjing saw our own child, she wouldn't stand by and watch him die, even if she saw a stranger!"
Xia Yulan said very modestly.
Wu Aijun and Li Shuhua grew up together. Later, one became the team leader and the other an accountant, and the two families have a good relationship.
Li Wenjing looked at Aunt Zhao's face. Her forehead was dark. She counted with her fingers again and the result was not good. She was hesitating whether to tell her.
"Aunt Wu, are you planning to visit relatives recently?"
(Aunt Zhao’s surname is Zhao. Wen Jing calls her Aunt Wu because she is Wu Aijun’s wife. This is how people in the countryside usually address her!)
Li Wenjing thought for a moment and decided to ask directly.
"How did you know that? My nephew from my mother's family is getting married in a few days, and our whole family is going to help!"
"Aunt Wu, is there a small river or stream, or a reservoir near your mother's home?"
At this time, everyone in the family felt that something was wrong with Li Wenjing today, and everyone looked at her.
Aunt Zhao was also a little strange.
"There's a reservoir near my mother's hometown. How did you know about it, Jing? You're asking this..."
When she was a girl, there was no reservoir land there, but later for some unknown reason, a reservoir was built behind the village.
Her brother from her mother's side even joked that the team leader must have gone crazy to build a reservoir there.
Aunt Zhao's parents are from another village, and she has never told anyone about the situation there.
She didn't know how this little girl Li Wenjing knew this, and why she asked this question. She stared at Li Wenjing closely.
"Aunt Wu, I hope you can trust me and do exactly what I say. When you go there, don't get close to the reservoir, especially Goudan. Stay as far away from the reservoir as possible!"
Li Wenjing said this very seriously.
Not only were the family members surprised that Li Wenjing said this, but even Aunt Zhao was curious.
"Jing girl, why do you say that?"
Li Wenjing wondered what to say?
Could it be that she calculated it by looking at her face?
Will I be reported or arrested and criticized?
In the end, she wanted to take a gamble because she felt that Captain Wu Aijun was a good person, and Aunt Wu also gave her a good impression. And there was also the child Goudan. She couldn't just watch a living life disappear like that, and she was afraid that she would regret it later.
It was obvious that if she had said a few more words, the child would have survived.
So she chose to speak the truth again: "Aunt Wu, I see that your forehead is dark, but your face is also rosy. This is a sign of disaster amidst joy. I just checked Goudan's forehead and he also has a dark, slightly blue hue. Blue represents water, so this means disaster caused by water."
Li Wenjing's explanation was very logical. Except for Li Shuhua and Xia Yulan, everyone else in the room was confused.
Li Yuanshan, Li Yuanbing and Goudan really didn't understand what Li Wenjing meant. They understood each word separately, but they couldn't understand when they were put together.
Wu Aijun looked unhappy and unhappy. If it weren't for Li Wenjing saving Goudan's life, he would have wanted to stop here and listen to Li Wenjing's nonsense.
The good impression I had of Li Wenjing disappeared completely in an instant.
I feel that there is no difference between Li Wenjing and Li Yuerong, they both love to show off.
Li Yuerong: Why do I get hurt even when I’m lying down?
Wu Aijun was about to speak to stop Li Wenjing, not wanting her to say this.
He is the team leader and a village official. How could he take the lead in promoting these feudal superstitions!
Then I heard Aunt Zhao speak impatiently: "Jing girl, is everything you said true?"
Li Shuhua also spoke at the right time: "When Jingjing was in Kyoto, she learned a little from the old man Zhidao. Later, the old man had an accident and only left her with a book. She read it when she had nothing to do. You can just listen to this story, don't take it seriously!"
Li Wenjing didn't want to let it go like this. She didn't want Aunt Zhao and the others to ignore this matter. This could cost lives, and it would be Goudan's life that was at stake!
As she spoke, she began to count on her fingers again: "Dad, Aunt Wu, I really am not speaking without purpose this time, I am telling the truth!
Aunt Wu, if you believe me, around noon the day after tomorrow, keep an eye on Goudan and don't let him leave the house!"
Li Wenjing said solemnly again.
What Li Wenjing had expected was that Goudan would fall into the water, and Aunt Wu, eager to save her grandson, would also jump into the water. However, her grandson could not be saved. After Aunt Wu was rescued, she could not accept the blow and went crazy.
She reminded him because she thought Aunt Wu was a good person.
What's more, she is the wife of my team leader. Whatever she wants to do in the future, even if her father is an accountant, the team leader has the final say.
After Wu Aijun and his family returned home, he saw that his old wife looked absent-minded.
Some were speechless and said, "Old woman, don't listen to Jing's nonsense. What does a sixteen-year-old know? She just said it like that, and we should just listen to it. Don't take it seriously!"
Aunt Zhao glared at Wu Aijun and said unhappily, "What do you know?"
"Before I married you, a Taoist priest happened to pass by my house and told me that I would lose my daughter at an early age and my grandson in old age, and that I would have to bury my young children. He also said that my future husband would be an official..."
Aunt Zhao was not lying. At that time, the Taoist priest had been hungry all day, and she was kind-hearted and gave her own rations to the old Taoist priest.
After the old Taoist priest had eaten and drunk his fill, he said that it was fate that brought them together. To repay the favor of the meal, he gave Aunt Zhao a fortune-telling, which led to the above words.
In fact, Aunt Zhao didn't believe these words at first. She thought that the old Taoist priest said these words to make himself feel better.
Later, she married Wu Aijun, the team leader, who was also an official, in charge of the entire Qingshan Brigade. Her daughter was indeed gone, and now all she had left was...
After Li Wenjing finished speaking today, she didn’t know why, but she suddenly remembered what the old Taoist said at that time!
