in

>Finally, Li-Li could not stand her mother-in-law's bad temper and

>Li-Li went to see her father's good friend, Mr. Huang, who sold herbs.
>She
>told him the situation and asked if he would give her some poison so
>that
>she could solve the problem once and for all.
>Mr.Huang thought for awhile, and finally said, "Li-Li, I will help you
>solve your problem, but you must listen to me and obey what I tell
you."
>Li-Li said, "Yes, Mr. Huang, I will do whatever you tell me to do."
Mr.
>Huang went into the back room, and returned in a few minutes with a
>package of herbs.
>He told Li-Li, "You can't use a quick-acting poison to get rid of your
>mother-in-law, because that would cause people to become suspicious.
>Therefore, I have given you a number of herbs that will slowly build
up
>poison in her body. Every other day prepare some delicious meal and
put
>a
>little of these herbs in her serving.
>
>Now, in order to make sure that nobody suspect You.When she dies, you
>must
>be very careful to act very friendly towards her. "Don't argue with
her,
>
>obey her every wish, and treat her like a queen."
>
>Li-Li was so happy. She thanked Mr. Huang and hurried home to start
her
>plot of murdering her mother-in-law.Weeks went by, and months went by,
>and
>every other day, Li-Li served the specially treated
>food to her mother-in-law. She remembered what Mr. Huang ha d said
about
>avoiding suspicion, so she controlled her temper, obeyed her
>mother-in-law, and treated her like her own mother.After six months
had
>passed, the whole household had changed. Li-Li had practiced
controlling
>her temper so much that she found that she almost never got mad or
>upset.
>She hadn't had an argument with her mother-in-law in six months
because
>she now seemed much kinder and easier to get along with.The
>mother-in-law's
>attitude toward Li-Li changed, and she began to love Li-Li like her
own

best

>daughter-in-law one could ever find.Li-Li and her mother-in-law were
now

was

my

like

>Mr. Huang smiled and nodded his head. "Li-Li, there's nothing to worry
