Folk story: monks get married

During the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, the Qing government had long since lost sight of the prosperity of Kanggan. In a small mountain village under the jurisdiction of Fengyang Prefecture, there is a family named Wang. The husband and wife are honest, and the mountain people rely on the mountain to eat the mountain. When men are idle, they rely on firewood to subsidize their families. This woman is busy at home all day and lives in poverty. The couple have been married for 20 years, but they have no children. If it's not the man's family, it's too much. The couple had to burn incense and worship Buddha all day long, praying that God would give them a child, even a daughter, or go to the underworld to explain to their ancestors a hundred years later! I don't know whether it is the bodhisattva's manifestation or the ancestor's blessing. When the man was forty-five years old, he gave birth to twins, both boys. Unfortunately, the woman eventually died of excessive blood loss! Three fathers and sons are very difficult. A big man has to take care of the newborn baby. Fortunately, the neighbor's daughter-in-law sees their father and son pitiful. He usually takes care of one or two when he is free. Mountain people look for fortune tellers to name their children. That day, he invited Mr. Wang to go home. Although his family was poor, he got a few snacks and drinks to entertain him. After dinner, the boy's birthday was reported. The gentleman thought for a moment, and his face became ugly. He repeatedly said, No, No, No! Mr. Wang was surprised to explain that only one of the two children could grow up, which made his family very worried. He took money to eliminate disasters, but Mr. Wang did one thing, sending one of the children to a temple to become a monk, often accompanying the Buddha, fasting and chanting Buddha all day, so that both children could survive and solve the problem for the other.

When the child was five years old, Tianci was sent to Jueyun Temple, 30 miles away from home, saying it was a temple. Actually, he is an old monk in his sixties. The old monk is also willing to come as a disciple or companion, although the old monk is the only one in the temple. In fact, the old monk is also knowledgeable and proficient in medical skills. In the first month of every year, the Wangs will come to the temple with their treasures, so that the two brothers can meet. Fifteen years have passed. Tianbao worked in a W room in the city, and decided to get married with the girl next door from an early age. This girl is very beautiful, and her name is Xier. On this day, Xi Er and her father came to the market in the city and went to see Tianbao, who works in the city. When I arrived at W House, the back door was about to leave, and I happened to meet the young master who had just returned from outside. When he saw this Xi, he immediately became lustful and ready to accept it. It turns out that Tianbao and Xier are engaged. The young master had no choice but to ruffian, and a vicious plan was born in his heart. He sent someone to add chronic poison to Tianbao's food. A month later, the Wangs heard the bad news of Tianbao. Joy is even sadder now. People in the mountains don't know anything. They think Tianbao must be suffering from something. Fortunately, when he learned that his brother had an accident, God sent him home. When he saw Tianbao's body, he immediately discovered the poisoning. A few days later, master rascal asked the matchmaker to take the dowry and marry Xi Er back to be a child. The Xi refused on the spot, but the baby's family was rich and powerful, and God sent him back to the temple to tell the old master about it. The old monk said thoughtfully for a while, God-given, since your brother is dead, you'd better go to secularization, or go back to take care of your father and marry Xi 'er. At first, the God-given family refused and advised him to go down the mountain in a few days.
