Chapter 482 The truth about the monk giving birth

The method of grilling fish looks simple, but it is actually very difficult to do.

Because you need to control the heat when grilling fish, and the most important thing in controlling the heat is patience.

Anyone who has cooked knows that getting a dish cooked to perfection is a matter of a split second.

Sometimes, even if you just stand next to the stove and watch the food being cooked, it can get burnt if you’re not paying attention.

The same goes for grilled fish.

Fish meat is tender to begin with. If it is not cooked enough, it will taste fishy and will greatly affect the taste.

But if it is overcooked, the fish will be burnt from the inside out and will be completely inedible.

So now it is actually very difficult to eat a well-cooked grilled fish in the city.

The girls also praised the other dishes.

For example, fried pork intestines, crispy kidneys, mapo tofu, and spicy braised duck feet.

Perhaps the vegetarian meals they had in the temple left such a deep impression on them that they were so eager to eat the meat.

Even the waiter couldn't help but come over and pour them some water, asking them to eat slowly.

"You are some pretty girls, why do you look like you have never eaten meat? Eat slowly, don't choke."

If a waiter in the city spoke like this, he would definitely have been complained about.

But now, hearing what the waiter said, instead of getting angry, the girls smiled and said, "Boss, we ate vegetarian food in the temple, and that vegetarian food was really bad, so we ate like this."

When the waiter heard what Sun Ya said, he burst into laughter.

"Oh, I was wondering, you don't look like poor people, how could you not even afford meat? It turns out you went to eat vegetarian food."

"But the vegetarian food on this mountain is really bad. We all went there to eat when we were young. The monks in this temple are really vegetarians, so I think the Bodhisattvas in this temple are all very powerful."

"But it's different in other temples. Many of the monks there have to eat meat, and they are all fat and fat. They don't even follow the precepts. The Buddha in this temple will definitely not be effective."

When the girls heard what the waiter said, they immediately became interested.

Sun Ya asked, "Auntie, have you ever seen a monk eating meat?"

"Yes, I have. Many of them."

The waiter said seriously, "About five years ago, this temple on our mountain was quite popular, with many pilgrims coming to pray to the gods."

"Maybe because the incense was so popular, it aroused the jealousy of other monks, so many monks came from other places and insisted on staying in the temple."

"You also know that there is a rule in their circle, that is, when monks from other temples come, as long as they are serious monks, your temple will provide them with food and accommodation. In fact, those monks originally wanted to join that temple to see if they could make some money, but after eating vegetarian food for half a month, they simply ate those monks away."

The waiter also pointed to a pork elbow rice restaurant diagonally opposite.

"See the pork elbow rice over there? At that time, the monks loved to eat that pork elbow rice the most. Every time I saw them eating meat, I felt it was a sin." "Later, when these fake monks saw that they couldn't make any money, they all left. Those were the monks who ate meat, and there were many of them. They were wandering around our town."

After hearing what the waiter said, netizens in the live broadcast room couldn't help but complain.

"I have met a monk who eats meat before. When I was very young, he asked me to buy him a roast duck and gave me one yuan as a fee."

"It has always been like this. In the past, poor people would choose to become monks just to fill their stomachs and have a meal. In fact, everyone is just trying to make a living. There is no need to take it so seriously."

"What you said is that people are willing to donate money to you because they trust you, but you took my money and spent it at night. Now you tell me not to take it so seriously? Since you are fake, shouldn't I keep the money for myself? Do I still need your help?"

"Be content, at least most of these people haven't come to cheat you, right? I've seen many monks like this at the station before. They're swindling people everywhere, and they're all taking money from the elderly. I can only say that I've lost interest in these monks since then."

This waiter was quite interesting. Perhaps he was afraid that Sun Ya and the others would suffer a loss, so he told them a lot of interesting stories about the temple.

"You know how people used to pray to gods and Buddhas for help when they had problems, right? In the past, women who couldn't get pregnant would come to temples to pray to gods and Buddhas, and they would get pregnant within a few days."

Sun Ya opened her eyes wide with an innocent look on her face.

"So magical? What is going on? Does praying to the gods really work?"

The waiter smiled and said, "It works, but this child didn't appear out of thin air."

"Some temples have a secret door at the back. If you go through the secret door, you will go to another room. The so-called giving away of children is actually the affair between some playboy monks and those women. This kind of thing used to happen everywhere. No decent woman would go to the temple to pray for a child."

When the girls heard what the waiter said, they all found it incredible.

They originally thought that the waiter was talking about myths and legends, but they didn't expect that he was talking about this kind of gossip.

But if you think about it carefully, it actually makes sense.

After all, women had a relatively low status at that time, and the only reason their husband’s family valued them was whether they could give birth to children.

If she cannot give birth to children, no matter how virtuous you are, or how good you are at managing the household, you will most likely be divorced.

After all, there are three kinds of unfilial piety, and the worst is to have no descendants.

If you can't even have children, why would your husband's family support you?
Netizens in the live broadcast room couldn't help but sigh.

"Oh, now that I think about it, women in the past were really miserable. They were just tools for giving birth and couldn't even have their own lives."

"You can't say that. Weren't men in the past miserable? At that time, making money was risking one's life. All we can say is that everyone has their own difficulties."

"To be frank, in the past, temples were full of filth and dirt. It's only now that they are much cleaner. They just want to make some money, which is understandable. After all, monks have to eat, so it's normal to make a lot of money."

"No wonder Xu Gou arranged for them to visit the temple first. It turns out there are so many tricks in it."

"My grandfather used to be a monk, but later he returned to secular life. He just said it was too chaotic and it was completely different from what he had imagined before."
