Phrase search
     This tip is by Mike Rylander

To do phrase searching just add an additional WHERE clause to your query:

SELECT id FROM tab WHERE ts_idx_col @@ to_tsquery('history&lesson')
AND text_col ~* '.*history\\s+lesson.*';

The full-text index will still be used, and the regex will be used to
prune the results afterwards.

it has some improving, but not for your case.
