Lu Xingxin thought of this and smiled at the old monk: "Thank you for your kindness, master. It's just that the baby was born last night, so it's inconvenient to carry him. I'd like to ask the two masters to sit in the courtyard for a while, and I'll bring him here."
After Lu Xingxin finished speaking, he let the two monks into the small courtyard, then turned and entered the back room.
After a while, Lu Xingxin wrapped his precious son tightly and brought him to the old monk.
The child kept crying "Wow... wow".
When the old monk saw the baby, he immediately beamed with joy: "Amitabha, how good! How good! Your son is really good-looking. I will give you a few drops of nectar as a poor monk. May you break away from the fog and get rid of suffering as soon as possible." After saying this, he poured the alms bowl into the bowl. The nectar gently drips into the baby's mouth.
Strangely enough, the baby swallowed the nectar with a "gu" sound and stopped crying. He opened his eyes and looked around, looking at the old monk familiarly, as if he had known him before, but also as if he understood him.
When Lu Xingxin saw it, he was very surprised: "This... thank you, teacher, for stopping the crying."
The old monk said: "Amitabha, don't be polite to the donor. Just because your noble son is destined to the Dharma and has extraordinary abilities, the poor monk wants to give him a name."
Lu Xingxin: "Give him a name? What name?"
The old monk said: "Shang Hui and Xiao Neng."
Lu Xingxin: "Hui Neng? Master, why should my son be called Huineng?"
Old monk: "Those who are benevolent are those who benefit all living beings with the Buddha's Dharma; those who are capable are those who can perform Buddhist deeds and promote the Dharma to save a place. Please benefactors remember this name and do not change it at will."
Lu Xingxuan: "Yes, Master, you said my son has a predestined relationship with Buddhism. How big is the predestined relationship?"
Old monk: "Amitabha, you will know when the time comes, so why ask first? Donor Lu, please send your son back to the inner room quickly to avoid catching a cold."
Lu Xingxin agreed and hurriedly sent the baby back to the inner room. When he turned around and went to the outer room to take another look, the two monks were gone. Lu Xingxin felt that the two of them were like gods, why were they moving so fast.
He suddenly thought of the old monk's prediction just now, saying that his son could promote Buddhism and save people. Doesn't this mean that his son will be a monk in the future?
He suddenly became frightened. Thinking about the relationship between father and son and the important matter of inheriting Lumen Cigarettes, he did not want his son to convert to Buddhism, let alone allow his son to become a monk.
But he heard the old monk's words clearly. He was so frightened that he couldn't help shouting: "No, my son's name is not Huineng. I, Lu Xingxin, have been longing for a son day and night. It's not easy for me to have a son." I can't let him become a monk, no way!" Before he could finish his words, tears welled up in his eyes.
Suddenly, he felt a buzzing in his ears and listened attentively. It was the old monk talking to him: "Donor Lu, don't be sad. Besides, when your son grows up, not only will I be no longer alive, but you, Donor Lu, will also be there." He is no longer alive. No matter what he does, you and I can't control him. Everything has a cause and effect, so why should you be sad about the future? You should take care of yourself and take good care of your son. "
Lu Xingxin felt that he had been enveloped by this voice, and his ears and head were filled with dense sounds, as if the speaker was above his head and beside him.
Lu Xingxin looked up and then around, but there was no one there. He became even more convinced that these two monks were gods and Buddhas who came to enlighten him. He was so frightened that he collapsed helplessly on the ground, and tears of bitterness burst into his eyes.
Lu Xingxin only heard the monk's voice but did not see the monk's figure. He believed even more that these two monks were gods and Buddhas who came to enlighten him. He believed that this was God's will and he could not change it. He was in great pain.
In fact, it was not a manifestation of gods or Buddhas. It was just that the old monk had deep cultivation of internal power and used the superior internal power of transmitting sound into secrets to send the sound into his ears from a distance so that he could hear it clearly without disturbing him. Others.
Lu Xingxin was sad for a long time before he slowly stood up and walked towards the yard. When I came to the house, I saw that my wife was protecting my beloved son and sleeping sweetly.
Lu Xingxuan knew that his wife was very tired after giving birth. In addition, the child kept crying after birth, and his wife had no rest. Now that she was asleep, he should not disturb her. Besides, we can't let her know about this, lest she can't bear the blow.
Lu Xingxin thought of this and collapsed on the chair exhausted. Thinking about how I have been looking forward to giving birth to a son day and night, but once I was looking forward to giving birth to a son, I was destined to have a relationship with the Buddha. I really have unspeakable difficulties in my heart. He does not want his son to become a monk in the future, but he does not know what his son will do in the future.
Be an official? No, it is not good to be an official. The officialdom is changeable and very dangerous. The magic power of that official chair was so great that it deformed many good people and forced them to spend money to buy an official position, spend money to become an official, and spend money to keep an official position. In order to achieve the goal, you have to use power, strategy, strategy, everything. Who doesn't know that "there are no winning generals in casinos, and there are no loyal men in officialdom". It is too difficult to be an official, but it is too sinful to be a corrupt official, so it is better not to be an official;
Be a citizen? It is not good to be a citizen. A good person can only make a living, but if he is not good, he will be oppressed by others, have no food and clothing, and work hard all his life. It is better to escape into a Buddhism and be free and easy... But... don't the cigarettes in my Lu family's door keep flowing? Absolutely?
Dear friends, the author said in the previous article that when Lu Xingxuan saw the birth of his son, he felt joyful. With the four great joys of life, such as sweet rain after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, the night of flowers and candles in the wedding room, and the inscription on the gold medal list, all of them were It’s not enough to describe it, so the author added another joy to it after the “four great joys”, that is: when I look forward to giving birth to a child.
While drinking tea and discussing Zen, Qin Wenbin, a local scholar, heard what the author said and humorously added two words after each of the "four joys":
After a long drought comes sweet rain, a few drops;
Meeting old friends and enemies in a foreign land;
The wedding night, next door;
Not necessarily when naming names on the gold list.
Everyone! Think about it, how happy it is to be greeted by sweet rain after a long drought, but just a few drops are incomprehensible; meeting an old friend in a foreign land is originally a good thing, but when you meet an enemy, it is better not to meet him; the night of flowers and candles in the wedding room, Next door, if we can't get together, we will be anxious; when we are nominated for the gold medal, we may not be named on the gold medal, and good things will turn into sad things. Then, following the elegance, the author also added two words to Lu Xingxin's fifth happiness: "When he is looking forward to having a son, he is "empty happiness".
Besides, at this moment, Lu Xingxin felt as if he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle. Sweet, sour, bitter, spicy, salty, all five flavors...
After a long time, he was freed from the pain and thought: Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. No matter where they go in the future, we will talk about the future. I will do the things in front of me first and cook for my wife. Madam, take good care of yourself so that you can raise your children well. Thinking of this, his mood improved slightly and he went into the kitchen to cook.
It was around noon that Ms. Li woke up from her sweet dream. When she opened her eyes and saw her precious son beside her, she couldn't help but be overjoyed.
For the first time in her life, Ms. Li enjoyed the warmth and happiness of being a mother, and she was extremely happy.
But Lu Xingxin was half happy and half worried. He forced a smile and brought the hot meal in front of Mrs. Li: "Madam, please have a meal."
"Husband, you look so ugly, are you uncomfortable?" Although Lu Xingxin pretended to be good, the smart and careful Li still noticed that something was wrong with his expression.
Lu Xingxin forced a happy face: "Really? No, maybe I was too happy last night and didn't sleep well."
Mrs. Li looked at Lu Xingxin intently: "There is no better wife than a wife who knows her husband. How can you hide your worries from me? I think you seem to have difficulties in your heart. What difficulties can't you tell your wife?"
