Brought mum to the nearby Bukit Canberra Hawker Centre (武吉坎贝拉小贩中心) for an early dinner. Mum was complaining about the hot and humid weather so we walked over to Sun Plaza shopping mall a stone throw away to enjoy the air conditioning and do some light grocery shopping. On the way out, we stopped at Nine Fresh (九鲜) to get takeaway Taiwanese desserts. Got for mum the S$2.90 Grass Jelly Special (黑糖芦荟仙草冻) and S$3.80 Fruity Ai-Yu Jelly (水果晶球爱玉冻) for myself. Topped up S$0.70 each to add sweetened red beans to the desserts.

During payment, the staff informed me that I will be receiving a complimentary set of Paper Lantern with LED Light (LED 灯笼) as I had spent S$8 or above. Even though I am too old to be playing with lantern, it is just a nice feeling to be getting something for Mid-Autumn Festival (中秋节).

Legend VS LMK Characters:

Kui Mulang (LMK):

[Kaui Mulang, Guard of the Celestial Court, Mansion of the White Tiger, Devourer of Earthly Souls]

Korean: Gyumokrang Mandarin: The Wood Wolf of Legs

Former Celestial Guard turned Yellow-Robed Demon.

After Falling in Love with Jade Maiden and having their love rejected by the Celestial Realm. He gave up their immortality and he awaited for her to reincarnate. As he waits to make sure he will be there to see her he consumes mortal lives to longavit his own.

The 28 Mansions mentioned by him are part of the Chinese constellation system as to why there is so much star imagery is in his castle.

Kui Mulang (Ledgend):

Kui Mulang originated from the ancient Chinese worship of the constellations, a spiritual practice that combines Chinese mythology and astronomy. He is considered to be one of the 28 Mansions, which are Chinese constellations. These are the same as those studied in Western astrology. He appears in Chinese mythology literate notably the JTTW & Fengshen Yanyi.

He is linked to a historical figure called Ma Wu, a general who hailed from the town of Huyang in Tanghe, located in the Henan province.

Kui Mulang is associated with the constellation Andromeda, which appears in the sky in the middle of November. In this constellation is Kui Xiu, described as the "four-legged fish palace" of Heshansu (和善宿) because its shape is similar to a fish. Another constellation, the White Tiger, is also associated with this cluster of stars.

According to the novel Investiture of the Gods (Fengshen Yanyi), Kui Mulang was originally named Li Xiong. After he died in the Battle of the Ten Thousand Immortals, Jiang Ziya deified him as the Wood Wolf of Legs, one of the twenty-eight stars.

In JTTW

Kui Mulang appears as a demon named Yellow Robe Demon . He lives the Moon Waves Cave on Bowl Mountain in the Kingdom of Baoxiang. In his past, the Yellow Robe Demon falls in love with the Jade Maiden in Heaven and decides to elope with her. He becomes a demon lord and the maiden is reincarnated from a goddess to a human who is named Baihuaxiu . She is the third princess of the Kingdom of Baoxiang. The demon then kidnaps the princess, though she has no memory of her existence as a Jade Maiden. He marries her and the couple has two children. Sun Wukong manages to defeat the demon, which mysteriously vanishes after his defeat. Wukong then seeks help from Heaven to track down the demon and learn his true identity. The Jade Emperor discovers that one of the 28 Mansions is missing, so he orders the remaining 27 to subdue the demon. The demon is revealed to be a disguised as Revatī, the Wood Wolf of Legs, a star deity in the heavenly court, and one of the 28 Mansions. The Wood Wolf is then subdued and brought back to Heaven. As punishment, he is ordered to become a furnace keeper under Taishang Laojun.

Jade Maiden:

Considering she is a huge part of Kui Mulang's life I thought maybe also some info about her as well.

[ Yunü / Jade Girl or Jade Maiden]

Yunü is a common designation for a beautiful woman or, in Daoism, for a fairy or immortal

A Taoist deity or goddess in Chinese mythology and Chinese traditional religion who, along with her male counterpart Jintong (Golden Boy), are favored servants of the Jade Emperor and Zhenwudadi. 

They are also believed to serve as guides in the underworld and the protectors of houses and temples. Some of the Golden Boy and Jade Girl pair could be found on some graves at Bukit Brown Cemetery as they are believed to serve as guides in the Spirit World or the Underworld.

During the spring festival, pictures featuring the two can be found on the doors of many households.

This couple helps virtuous souls over a golden bridge to paradise and helps souls whose good deeds outweighed the bad, over a silver bridge to paradise. Therefore by erecting the Golden Boy and Jade Maiden by the grave of the deceased, living family members hope that the deceased will not venture into the courts of hell but instead lead their afterlife in paradise. Yunü and Jintong have appeared in several stories since the Song and Yuan dynasties and have become important figures in Chinese mythology.

There are several mountain peaks bearing her name.

In Journey to the West, Yunü is a servant maid of the Jade Emperor in Heaven. She falls in love with a star god called Kui Mulang and decides to elope with him. However, she doesn't want to ruin Heaven's pureness, so she decides to reincarnate as a human. She enters the human world as Baihuaxiu, the third princess of the Kingdom of Baoxiang.

In Other Literature:

Specific examples are the southern opera version of the legend, Jintong and Yunü, In this context, Yunü is called Longnü and Jintong is called Shancai Tongzi. According to the Shenyijing, Yunü and her companions loved to play touhu, a Chinese game in which arrows or darts are thrown into a vase. In the Avatamsaka Sutra, she and Jintong seek enlightenment and are acolytes of Guan Yin. In this context, Yunü is called Longnü and Jintong is called Shancai Tongzi. Some folktales say that Xue Dingshan and Fan Lihua were originally the Golden Boy and Jade Girl. The Jade Emperor was furious with them and wanted to punish them for breaking the celestial utensils. Fortunately, the Old Man of the South Pole begged for their mercy and was demoted to the mortal world. In the Hanyi ji play, the protagonists Qi Liang and Meng Jiang are reincarnations of Jintong and Yunü. In most popular versions of The Butterfly Lovers, the protagonists Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai are human reincarnations of Jintong and Yunü who are expelled from Heaven Court by Guanyin or the Jade Emperor for their sin and forced to live as a thwarted couple for three or seven generations before being reunited and restored to their original status.

Thoughts:

Yunü has a lot of love and being kicked/leaving heaven tales.

But did love she was more than just known for this story alone.

The JTTW and LMK versions of Kui Mulang are not too different. However, in the retelling of their love tale he only mentioned himself ridding them of their immortality it almost sounded like in that tale she might have had second thoughts and he did it by force. But I hope not but we can never know because the LMK changed a lot of the characters and tweaked some backstories.

I think the real change in the LMK is that Kui Mulang captured Ao Lie before the JTTW. From the way he talked about the Jade Maiden, she had not been reincarnated or at least he had not captured her yet. For Ao Lie It had to be after his banishment of course because he talked about his powers causing damage he felt bad for aka when he burned his dad's stuff.

Well, I hope you, readers enjoyed:)

How to Choose the Best Chinese Tuition in Singapore

Several studies found out that learning the Chinese language offers a gateway to understanding Chinese culture on a deeper level and opens up opportunities for career advancement and international business partnerships.

But how and where can your child learn the Chinese language? The good news is that there are many Chinese tuition centres in Singapore to choose from. However, with so many choices out there, finding the perfect fit for your child’s learning needs can be challenging. To make the decision easier, here’s a simple guide for you.

Whether your child is a struggling student looking to boost his or her grades or simply a learner aiming for fluency, we'll help you find the best Chinese tuition in Singapore.

Why is Learning Chinese Important?

With China’s growing influence not only in Singapore but also in the global economy, knowing the Chinese language can help your child gain a competitive edge in various industries. 

Chinese language skills can seriously up your child’s professional game. Whether he or she wants to work for a multinational corporation or a local startup, speaking Mandarin could help him or her stand out in a competitive job market.

Moreover, learning Chinese opens doors to a rich tapestry of traditions and values. From appreciating Chinese literature to fully enjoying local festivals, language proficiency deepens your child’s cultural experience.

And did you know that learning Chinese can actually rewire your child’s brain? Studies show that mastering this tonal language enhances cognitive abilities, improves multitasking skills, and even boosts creativity. It's like a mental workout for your child!

Lastly, with over a billion speakers worldwide, Chinese is your child’s passport to connecting with a large global community. Speaking Mandarin allows him or her to make new friends beyond Singapore's borders.

What are the Factors to Consider When Choosing a Chinese Tuition Centre?

When selecting Chinese tuition at Bukit Timah for your child, consider factors such as the qualifications and experience of the teachers, class size, teaching methods, and the availability of resources for practice and reinforcement. In addition, look for a centre that offers a conducive learning environment and personalised attention to help your child achieve language learning goals effectively.

Examine the centre's teaching approach. Does it match your child’s learning style? Some centres focus on rote memorisation, while others emphasise interactive learning. Consider whether they offer a structured curriculum that covers all aspects of Chinese language proficiency—speaking, listening, reading, and writing.

Plus, the expertise of the tutor can make or break your child’s learning experience. A tutor who has a proven track record of helping students succeed can be a game changer.

Additionally, keep in mind that smaller class sizes typically result in more individualised attention. This can be especially beneficial if your child is struggling with specific areas of the language. However, take note that some learners thrive in larger group settings. Consider your child’s personal preferences and learning needs when evaluating class sizes.

Choose a Chinese tuition centre that is easily accessible and has flexible scheduling. This will ensure that your child can attend classes regularly without any inconvenience. 

Lastly, the best Chinese tuition in Singapore can provide progress reports and feedback to keep you updated on your child's language development.

How to Get Started with the Best Chinese Tuition in Singapore?

Learning Mandarin in a Chinese tuition centre can be a nerve-racking experience for your child. Not only is he or she learning a new language, but he or she may also be adapting to a new learning environment and teaching style.

So, as a parent, how can you help your child in getting started with the best Chinese tuition in Singapore?

First, assess your child’s current level. It is important to understand where your child stands. Talk to your child and honestly evaluate his or her Mandarin skills. Determine if your child is a complete beginner or does he or she have some foundation? Knowing your child’s starting point will help you choose the right Chinese tuition centre program that matches his or her needs.

Second, set clear goals. Having clear and specific goals will guide your search for the perfect tuition option. What does your child want to achieve when learning the Chinese language? Does he or she want to become fluent in speaking, reading, and writing? Understanding your child’s goals will help you narrow down the options.

Third, research different tuition options. From one-on-one private tutors to group classes and online platforms, there's something for everyone. Take time to consider various options, including teaching style, class size, and location. Don't forget to read reviews and ask for recommendations from friends or family who've had success with Chinese tuition.

Remember, finding the right fit might take some trial and error. Many tuition centres offer trial classes or introductory sessions. Take advantage of these to get a feel for the teaching style and environment before committing long-term. Your perfect Chinese tuition experience is out there—it's just a matter of finding it!

Conclusion

When finding the best Chinese tuition in Singapore, don't be afraid to explore different options, ask questions, and trust your instincts. Whether you opt for a large learning centre, a small group setting, or one-on-one lessons, the key is to find a program that suits your child’s learning style and goals. Remember that consistency and practice are essential in mastering the Chinese language, so choose a tuition program that will keep your child motivated and engaged throughout his or her learning journey.
