Long ago, in a remote mountain village, there lived a young couple. The husband's name was Li Dabao, and the wife's name was Wang Xiuying. They had been married for three years, and their relationship had always been good. Every night they slept together in the same bed, affectionately and lovingly. One night, Li Dabao suddenly had a strange dream. He dreamed that he and his wife were sleeping in the same bed, but he couldn't feel his wife's body temperature, and his wife's face was pale, like a dead person. Li Dabao woke up in a cold sweat. He felt that this dream foreshadowed something bad. He spent a night full of anxiety and unease, and the next morning he went to the nearby town to find a fortune teller. The fortune teller, after a short calculation, said with a serious expression: "Your wife will soon have a disaster, you must be careful." Li Dabao was very worried and immediately rushed home. When he saw his wife, he found that her face was haggard and her spirit was weak. Li Dabao immediately told his wife what the fortune teller had said, and his wife was also shocked. The couple began to cherish each other more and support each other, and together they overcame the crisis. From then on, they loved each other even more, and every day they slept together in the same bed was filled with happiness and joy.
