Chapter 579 A Blessing in Disguise
The young woman was helped up by everyone and lay in the corner.
The son leaned against his mother with a pale face, sobbing softly: "Mom, don't leave me... Yu Yu doesn't want to be an orphan." He didn't understand life and death, but he gradually understood it as his father fell into a deep sleep.
The doctor came hurriedly with a medicine box and cleaned her wound carefully.
"Has she had nothing to drink to-day?" asked the doctor.
"Yes." The old lady was already crying and out of breath. She was blind, so she could only hold her daughter-in-law's hand tightly and dared not let go.
"She hasn't had a drop of water today, and she was exhausted from crying. She's weak, but she's not seriously injured. Fortunately, she's alive." The doctor prescribed some medicine, and after a while, the woman slowly woke up.
When she opened her eyes and saw her mother-in-law and son, she burst into tears.
The orphan and his widow cried bitterly.
Those who hear it are sad and those who listen to it cry.
Shanshan lowered his head. Lu Chaochao walked up to him and whispered, "Do you still think that a life is dispensable and can be plundered at will?"
Shanshan lowered her head and said nothing.
Lu Chaochao spread out her little hands, and a ball of faint light was in her palms. It's just that others can't see it...
Knowing that Shanshan had written the wrong name, she sought out the Emperor of Fengdu to intercept the other person's soul.
At this moment, she waved gently towards the coffin.
“Ahem…”
Suddenly a cough was heard from inside the coffin, but everyone was so busy comforting the orphans and didn't pay any attention.
The little boy suddenly tilted his head: "I heard Daddy's voice."
Everyone just thought he was too sad and didn't take it seriously.
After a while he said, "My father is coughing. It's my father's voice..." He suddenly jumped up and exclaimed.
There was a moment of silence in the hall.
In the silence, the coughing became more obvious.
Everyone's face changed drastically and they slowly looked towards the coffin, only to see Li Zhao, who was wearing shroud, holding onto the coffin and sitting up.
He coughed and suddenly spat out a mouthful of date pits.
"I'm choking to death..." He said hoarsely as he lay on the coffin.
"It's a zombie, it's haunted, it's haunted!!" The villagers were suddenly shocked by this scene, their heartbeats accelerated, and they screamed and rushed out of the courtyard.
In a flash, only Li Jia, Lu Chaochao and others were left in the hall.
"Is it my son? Is it my son?" The old lady was blind and could only rub around.
The daughter-in-law stood up with tears in her eyes and said, "My husband, are you going to take me with you? I will go with you, even to the underworld."
She cried and walked forward to hold Li Zhao's hand.
Her crying stopped for a moment, and she grabbed her husband's hand and pressed it against her cheek.
"Warm? Why are you warm?" She raised her hand again and touched Li Zhao's nose.
"Oh my, oh my, mother, he's not dead, not dead, my husband is not dead!!"
"He's still breathing, he's breathing!!" the woman shouted in ecstasy, crying and laughing.
The doctor was pushed into the room by the crowd and felt his pulse tremblingly.
The villagers outside the door were pulling at it and looking at the mourning hall cautiously.
After taking his pulse, the doctor checked his eyes and breathing. "I was lucky enough to get a copy of an ancient book. It said that when a person is in crisis, he may go into a state of suspended animation."
"Mr. Li was choked by a date pit. I'm afraid that's what happened."
"Just now, the Madam bumped into the coffin and shook out the date pit."
After saying that, he turned around and shouted, "He's alive, not dead."
When the Li family heard this, they burst into tears. Li Zhao stood up and thanked all the kind neighbors, and planned to visit them in person tomorrow to express his gratitude.
A funeral ends with the deceased crawling out of the coffin.
After Li Zhao settled his wife, children and mother, he looked at Zhu Mo and others in confusion: "My dear friends, it seems that Li Zhao doesn't know you..."
Zhu Mo had already thought of a plan before he came: "I heard that Master Li had come to the capital to submit a letter of invitation, hoping to find a master?"
Li Zhao nodded immediately: "Yes."
"It's just that Li Zhao has no talent and was born in a poor family..."
Naturally, he failed.
"My young master once met Master Li Zhao by chance and admired him. If you don't mind, you can become my master's disciple." Zhu Mo said with a smile.
Li Zhao was startled: "Excuse me, which teacher is this?"
He originally thought that if the other party had the title of a juren, he, Li Zhao, would have a master in this life.
But the other party smiled and said, "The new number one scholar Lu Yuanxiao."
"If you don't mind, I can come to your house to become your disciple in a few days. I just hope that Master Li will not despise me because I am young..."
Li Zhao was so shocked that he couldn't recover. Even his hands were shaking. "Really? It's the fourteen-year-old Yuanxiao Master who won the top three places in the imperial examination?"
"How can I be worthy of being accepted as a disciple of the top scholar!!"
"It's Li Zhao's blessing, it's Li Zhao's blessing!!" Li Zhao was so happy that he cried, and the whole family was even happier.
"It is true that those who survive a great disaster will be blessed in the future." The old lady said while laughing.
"This is my wife Lin, and this is my son Ayu." Seeing that the house was still like a mourning hall, Master Li invited them to sit outside the yard.
When Daddy woke up, Ayu was very happy.
He took out a small snack that he was reluctant to eat and handed it to Shanshan: "Brother, you eat it...here you eat it."
Little brother A Yu, with red and swollen eyes, was drooling with greed as he stuffed snacks into Shan Shan's mouth.
Shanshan chewed the snack and found it very sweet.
But there is also a hint of bitterness.
Perhaps, it was a change in his mood.
When Li Zhao saw Lu Chaochao, he patted his head gently and said, "This little girl looks a little familiar..."
"I seem to have seen it somewhere..."
Lu Chaochao smiled without saying anything. “I was the one who stopped you when your soul was locked this morning.”
"Maybe it's fate..." Lu Chaochao smiled.
"Dear guests, please have lunch at our house. There is nothing good in the village, so let's eat some farm food." The old woman rubbed her hands. She was blind, but she could barely make fire, wash clothes and do some simple chores.
The family lived in extreme poverty.
This is also the general state of scholars.
"It's a pity that all the chickens at home have been let out and we can't catch them... otherwise I would kill one for my brother to try." Little A Yu sighed, looking regretful.
Just finished...
Then Shanshan got up from the ground and flew out.
I have never seen him so skillful before, he knocked down a chicken with ease.
Then he grabbed the struggling hen and lifted it up towards his sister in a flattering manner.
Ayu…………
Li Zhao was too embarrassed to raise his head: "I'm sorry to make you all laugh, my family is poor, and A-Yu's temper..."
"Kill two chickens quickly and give them to the nobles to taste at noon."
During lunch, Lu Chaochao's mouth was full of oil.
When leaving, he secretly left a big red envelope on the table.
She thought about it and decided to make up for the shock the Li family had suffered. Another mark was left on the Li family, which could avert a life-and-death disaster for the Li family.
Wait for a few people to leave.
Li Zhao was very surprised to see the generous red envelope on the table. Lin picked up the red envelope and said, "This red envelope is enough for our family to buy a small house in the capital." They can even run a small business and be a little wealthy. It's like a windfall.
"I'll thank you after we get to Beijing." Li Zhao's heart was filled with excitement. His lifelong wish was for his old mother, wife and children to live a good life.
Now, everything is complete.
at night……
Li Zhao was lying on the bed, drowsy, when suddenly a thought flashed through his mind...
He sat up suddenly.
"I remember now! I remember where I saw Miss Chao Chao!!"
"When I was passing through the underworld, she stopped me and said that her younger brother was naughty and had drawn the wrong name! She accidentally locked my soul away... To show her love, she sent me back to the mortal world and gave me ten years of life!!"
At that time, the Emperor of Fengdu was also very polite to her.
For him, it was a blessing in disguise, he got a big advantage!
