At this time, Hua Xinmin said that it would be best to give Ya'er a name that was neither expensive nor cheap. My mother-in-law said, just think about it carefully.
Can we just call it Shenbao? The father-in-law suddenly seemed inspired and asked for advice by naming a name.
all right! My mother-in-law agreed.
Hua Xinmin ran from the main room to the inner room and said to Jin Mingfang, who still had a floral towel wrapped around his head, "Dad gave you a name, Shenbao, okay?" Jin Mingfang had heard it a long time ago, and she nodded.
Perhaps he learned the lesson from the previous times when he gave birth to a child and couldn't support it. Jin Mingfang thought to himself: God can protect this child. It's not enough to just ask God for protection. He also needs to ask for help from Buddha and Bodhisattva. Asking for help from Buddha and Bodhisattva actually means asking inwardly, not outwardly. Asking means asking for help yourself, because everyone has Buddha nature. To express your Buddha nature, you must have bodhicitta, be compassionate, joyful, and give up, abstain from killing and releasing animals, so as to eliminate evil obstacles and protect yourself and your family. The peace of God, especially the safety of this child.
Of course, Jin Mingfang did not have such a high level of consciousness, but she only believed in one dead principle. In order to raise a good child, she had to listen to Master Wu. From then on, she did not kill animals or eat meat, and insisted on a vegetarian diet. Every morning and evening when she got up and went to bed, she chanted She chants the Buddha's name ten times. In addition, she spends some of the money her husband gives her to buy frogs, loaches, snakes and other live animals at the vegetable market to release.
Father-in-law Huacai saw it and said unhappily, "You don't have much money to begin with, but you still spend it on this. Who is forcing you?" Jin Mingfang was not angry and answered with a smile, "Dad, you don't know. I am doing this to raise your grandson well. If I don't do some good deeds and accumulate some bad virtues, my family will be uneasy!" Do more good deeds and accumulate more yin virtues, and your family will be blessed with good fortune and peace.
Huacai thought about it. For more than a year, the gods had kept the child safe and sound, and he had never even caught a cold. Could it be that the daughter-in-law's fasting, chanting Buddha's name, abstaining from killing and releasing animals had an effect? He wasn't sure, but the fact was before him.
He often heard his wife Hexiu advise him that after making money, you should also do some good deeds, which will be good for your children and grandchildren. Last time I went to a temple fair, I saw the words printed on the front of the clothes worn by the pilgrims in the temple: "Do good deeds for one day, and your whole family will be blessed!" This shows that doing good deeds has benefits.
But Huacai doesn't really believe it, thinking that it doesn't matter if he does good or not, as long as he doesn't do bad things. Therefore, he always turned a deaf ear to these words. Now, when I heard my daughter-in-law Jin Mingfang say this again, I felt different.
He was thinking: Is it really beneficial to accumulate virtue and do good deeds? During the meal, he mentioned these pondering questions to his wife. His wife said that the reason why Shenbao grew up smoothly and safely to over one year old was directly related to the fact that his daughter-in-law abandoned evil and turned to good deeds and practiced spiritual practice at home. , if she hadn't been like this, everything would have been difficult to say.
oh! There are real benefits to doing good deeds. Flower wealth also gives birth to a kind thought. That winter, he took the initiative to buy 30,000 yuan worth of cotton-padded clothes, cotton shoes and hot water bottle heaters to donate to the orphaned elderly people in Jinshan Town Welfare Institute to keep out the cold. The next year, the town held a third-level cadre meeting and commended him as an advanced private business owner. , social caring people.
From then on, not only did he have a good reputation, but his grandson Shenbao, whom he cared about most, grew up peacefully and happily as if he was truly blessed by gods.
Hua Xinmin was also inspired by his family's charity. Whenever he saw wandering beggars on the street, he would take the initiative to buy a meal for them, or give them a few pieces of pocket money, and then quietly walk away.
Six years later, Shenbao went to school with his schoolbag on his back; ten years later, Shenbao lived in middle school; twelve years later, Shenbao was admitted to a normal university in the provincial capital. That was the age when he was young and energetic, and it was also a sensitive period in his life when he was in love and pursuing dreams. On the way to send him to college, his mother, who had a little gray hair on her head, whispered to him, Shenbao, you must not fall in love.
mom! You can refer to my personal affairs, but you can't interfere with them. After all, I am a human being and I have emotions and desires. How can you say such a thing? Hanamibo felt very strange and stared at his mother and asked.
Ya'er! You don't know, you can't get married. My mother remembered what the boy ghost said on the night when she went to Yaopo Dang to cry at the grave eighteen or nineteen years ago. She had been keeping it in her heart for all these years and no one had ever said it to her. She was mysterious now and her voice was still very low.
mom! I am a normal person, why can't I fall in love and get married? He's not impotent, and he's not a eunuch...Mom, I still don't understand why you said this? Hua Shenbao was a little annoyed. He put the package away and stood on the road to ask.
Shenbao, that's the thing. When others get married, it brings joy, but if you get married, it brings bad luck. I can’t say much more. It was inconvenient for his mother to tell him what the ghost boy said in Yaopo Dang, so she had no choice but to tell him this.
Mom, you are totally superstitious. I don’t believe it. I believe in science. Don’t say such things. Hua Shenbao turned around, picked up the package and continued on his way.
But his steps were not fast, even a little heavy. His mother's words were a hint to him that there was indeed a girl in their graduating class, a girl with a round face, almond eyes and a cherry mouth, who liked him and often praised Hanamiho as the god of flowers. He should be the one who knows how to cherish fragrance and pity jade. He also joked that you should be called Flower God, and you don’t need the word "protection".
Hua Shenbao said that a man would not change his name in business, but he would not change his surname in office. Then laughed.
Recently, the girl handed him a love letter, which contained this sentence: This world has prepared me because of you, and I am your only one!
He was attracted as soon as he saw it, and now the prelude to a different first love has begun. It seems that it has just begun. It is difficult and impossible to end it immediately according to mother's words. He suddenly turned around and looked at his mother strangely and asked, "Mom, who told you that my marriage would be evil?"
My child, forget it if you don’t believe it. As a mother, Jin Mingfang was helpless. The child did not believe what she said, but she believed that kind of thing, because the first three children were lost, and the tragedy of the dead baby was still vivid in her mind. This was far more terrifying than the lesson of blood. This made her even more anxious and anxious in times of peace. She suddenly came up with an idea. Can she solve the problem of her son Hanashenbao's marriage? It’s hard to say.
Seeing that he was about to graduate from college in a few years, Hua Shenbao brought his sweet girlfriend home to discuss the matter of marriage. Now Jin Mingfang panicked and asked a fortune teller to tell her son.
The fortune teller said in surprise, "Let me tell you the truth!" There are still problems with your son's marriage.
what is the problem? Jin Mingfang asked deliberately.
He has a bad marriage!
Can you beat it?
I'm afraid it's difficult!
Can it be resolved?
The evil spirit is too strong and I'm not sure it can be resolved. I won't charge you for the horoscope you asked me to calculate.
Jin Mingfang successively found four horoscope tellers who all said the same thing. She was anxious, so she went to the city to find the famous Wei Xiazi on North Street.
Generally, people who tell horoscopes are blind. It is said that the fortune teller, who was called Blind Wei on the back, could memorize Guiguzi's fortune-telling book smoothly without hindrance, and the horoscopes were surprisingly accurate. I have a clue in my mind that if the person who seeks his horoscope has a birth scar or a mole on his body, he can tell it accurately.
At that moment, Jin Mingfang went to find him. When he heard the birth date reported by Jin Mingfang, he "rhymed" it in his heart and immediately rejected it. I don't count this horoscope.
Jin Mingfang kept kneeling in front of his house. Of course Blind Wei couldn't see it, but his family could see it, so they said, "Brother Wei, you and this woman's son can help you to resolve the disaster!" She knelt for several hours and was so pitiful.
Blind Wei moved his shadow-covered eyes a few times, took a breath and said, "You can come tomorrow!" I want to think about whether there is a way to resolve it. I can only give it a try, but I can't guarantee it.
In this way, Jin Mingfang, who was eager to save his son and had a glimmer of hope, left. Before leaving, he said, "Master Wei, I'll leave it to you to solve the disaster. You must find a way!"
