Strange, what does it mean for a grandson to marry a grandmother?

In Liang Wudi's time, there was a monk named Zhigong, who had great magic. At that time, shortly after the rise of Buddhism, there was a custom that when a large family had a happy event, they invited monks to recite scriptures, which was called "chanting auspicious scriptures", meaning that they hoped to seek happiness for their families.

Once, a rich man's son married his daughter-in-law, so he invited a monk, Zhigong, to recite the scriptures. As soon as he stepped into the door, he sighed.

Strange, strange, grandson marries grandmother.

Pigs and sheep sit on the kang and cook in the pot.

Women eat their mothers' meat and children beat their fathers.

Everyone came to congratulate me. I mean it's really bitter!

It turned out that after the son was born, his grandmother loved him very much and was always afraid that his parents would not take care of him. Grandma died when he was over one year old. Before she died, she took her grandson's hand and felt very reluctant. She said, "You are all married, but my little grandson is left unattended. Alas! What should I do? " After that, he died with this concern. Because of this worry, grandma and her grandson got married in the afterlife. After grandma died, she was sent to a neighboring village and turned into a girl. When she grew up, she became the daughter-in-law of her grandson. So "grandchildren marry grandmothers".

When the monk Zhi Gong looked on the kang, it turned out that the six relatives sitting on the kang were all pigs, sheep and goats of this family, and they were all slaughtered to eat meat. Now they are reincarnated as relatives, so they say "pigs and sheep sit on the kang"! When monk Zhigong looked into the vegetable pot, he saw that the six parents who used to eat pigs and sheep and their families were now reincarnated as pigs and sheep, boiled and cut, and paid their debts in the pot, so he said, "Six parents cook in the pot."

Outside, a girl is eating pig's trotters with relish. This pig turned out to be her mother in a previous life, so she said, "women eat their mother's meat."

Monks Zhigong look at those who play music, such as those who beat gongs and drums, those who play the trumpet and those who play the flute. How lively it is! Drumming hard alone. The drum is made of donkey skin, and this donkey turned out to be his father in a previous life! Therefore, it is said that "the child plays the father's leather drum."

So, "everyone comes to congratulate you", everyone thinks it is a happy day, but the monk Zhigong sighed: "I said it was really bitter!"
