Chang Hao looked at Yao Yishui to see what he meant. Yao Yishui said, do whatever the master says. The old Zen master smiled and said, then I still suggest reciting Guanshiyin Bodhisattva's six-character Great Ming Mantra to the drowned parrot. Reciting seventy-seven forty-nine heavens will surely save its soul, and ensure that its soul will not become a hungry ghost, become an animal, or go to hell. As a donor, you only need to put some incense money in the merit box. As for how much money to put, there is no hard and fast rule, just let it happen!
Master, you recite the six-character Great Ming Mantra for seventy-seven forty-nine days to that parrot, and I will put four hundred and ninety yuan incense money in the merit box. Yao Yishui took out the money as he spoke.
Is it enough? Always easy to ask questions.
Enough, enough. The old Zen master put his hands together and immediately recited the six-character mantra of Guanyin Bodhisattva: Om Mani Padme Hum...
That night when Chang Hao and Yao Yishui returned home, after having sex late at night, they had a good sleep. Chang Hao had a strange dream:
The budgerigar said that the master in the Guanyin Temple recited a mantra for it and its soul was saved. The Chakravartin King initially decided that it would lay eggs and become another kind of pet bird, and then under the action of the mantra, it eliminated numerous calamities. The evil deeds and sins committed in this life are allowed to be reincarnated as human beings. Chang Hao asked where it would be reincarnated, and it said you would understand soon.
A month later, Chang Hao stopped menstruating. She often vomited and had sour taste, and her belly slowly became bigger. All this seemed to announce to the world that she had entered the pregnancy period when she was preparing to be a mother.
When the pregnancy was over in ten months, Chang Hao gave birth to a baby boy painfully but happily. Because he was chubby, but a little dark, he had a tiger-like head and a big head.
Yao Yishui, who was pregnant with his son late, was so happy that he smiled from ear to ear. When he closed his mouth, he spit out two words to the baby boy who was just a few days old: black tiger. Chang Hao also liked this nickname. He touched the suckling baby boy in his arms and said, "You look so majestic like this, you really look like a black tiger." So he laughed.
Yao'er grows up easily, and Yao Heihu has grown up to eleven or twelve years old before he knows it. He has a bad temper and loves to play tricks. It may be because his parents are doting on him. If he doesn't obey him at all, he will yell and even tear him up. Damn it, it made the family restless.
That winter, Chang Hao saw that he was cold, so he bought him a down jacket to wear, but he didn't like it. Of course there are reasons: this down jacket has a zipper closure, not a button closure, and maybe the zipper is not very flexible. Waxing didn't work, he was impatient, and once he pulled it fast, he couldn't pull it anymore. He pulled it up with great force, but couldn't pull it off.
He finally pulled it off and couldn't pull it back up. He was so angry that he didn't ask his mother to help him pull it. Instead, he angrily found a pair of scissors from the house and cut and clipped it randomly. In the end, the zipper was I got it off, but this brand new down jacket was also damaged. I threw it in front of my mother and said in a good voice, "Mom, are you buying a coat from me?" It was not easy to put on, so I cut it off and it was useless for zipping.
Chang Hao met and said, "Son, you really don't hesitate to spend money. This down jacket costs more than 200 yuan. If you don't wear it, you shouldn't cut it into pieces. If it is cut into pieces, I'll take it to someone else to exchange it for you. They won't do it." No matter how rich your father is from running a coal mine, you shouldn't be so wasteful. You are really a waste of money.
Heihu retorted unconvinced, "Mom, you're still talking about me. Why did you spend so much money on a parallel-imported down jacket?" None of the zippers above can be used to zip up my coat. Next time you buy me a coat, I don’t want zippers, but buttons.
It is a sin for a child to be naughty too much. Even if the child is not aware of it, adults should strictly discipline him. Because Yao Yishui got this late child because he was old, he always relied on Black Tiger. No matter how angry he was, he would not talk about him or beat him, but still care for him like a treasure. This was actually harming him.
When Yao Heihu was in elementary school, he usually came home late at noon. His mother had finished eating and did not wait for him to eat with her. As soon as he came home, he slapped the pot lid loudly.
That's not all. If the rice is a little thin or cold, and it doesn't fit in the mouth, he will vomit it without swallowing it, spitting it all over the floor, or he will pick the rice out of the bowl with chopsticks in an emotional manner. The weight was thrown behind the head, and it fell all over the floor.
When his mother found out, she yelled at him angrily and he stopped eating. She was also worried that he was hungry, so he just yelled with reason, "I just won't eat the fresh food you have eaten."
Oh, it turns out that you are acting irritable because your mother had eaten first and did not wait for you. Okay, mom will do it with you. Chang Hao had no choice but to endure and serve his son like a father. After cleaning up the food that he had vomited and thrown on the ground, and cooking a fresh meal again, his son calmed down.
Yao Heihu is really a brat. His stubborn behavior can't be tolerated by his own family, and if he gets used to it, outsiders can't stand it.
That time, Yao Yishui brought an acquaintance named Shan Yuqiang from a nearby village to have dinner at home due to business. Chang Hao prepared several dishes, including a bowl of fragrant bacon as a table dish. Shan Yuqiang also liked to eat it, but when he arrived After all, the Yao family is here as a guest, so don't look too greedy. Occasionally, you pick up a piece of bacon and still want to eat it.
At this time, Yao Heihu was so greedy that he used a pair of chopsticks to poke the bacon into the bowl. In fact, it didn't matter. What did matter was that the little guy was so careless that he actually chopped the bacon into his rice bowl. After taking one or more bites, he would shovel the remaining thick pieces of bacon skin that were too chewy or uncooked into the bacon bowl on the table. His parents would not stop him.
Shan Yuqiang took a look and no longer put his chopsticks into the bowl of bacon. He had lost his appetite. In order to hide his inner boredom and even nausea, he put on a smile and said that this guy was really interesting. I thought to myself: If my child had caused such trouble, I would have swollen his butt. But Yao Heihu's father also had a smile on his face, but he didn't mean to blame him at all. Instead, he had a hint of indulgence.
Chang Hao just said, Heihu, don't spit the bacon skin into the bowl of bacon, will others still eat it? Heihu tilted his head and said nothing, still doing it as usual. It seemed that he was not afraid of his mother at all, not to mention his father did not object. He thought: What he did was quite obedient and well-behaved. Usually, he got angry when he didn't like it at all and made trouble. Emotional, he can also pry the table and shake the bowl.
Seeing this scene, Shan Yuqiang also thought to himself: This is because his master has spoiled him bad, and he can't reverse it all at once. Suddenly he looked at Heihu and teased, "Your name is Heihu. My family has a black-haired dog. He is very well-behaved. I call him Heimao." Of course not as good as you. Chang Hao pointed at Heihu again and said angrily that he was not as good as a dog, and all dogs were better than him.
Shan Yuqiang smiled again and said that he is not bad at a young age now, and he will be even better when he grows up in the future. After hearing these words of encouragement, Heihu raised his head and looked at Shan Yuqiang, opening his mouth and sticking out his tongue, with a slight smile on his face, as if he was grateful to him.
