About grateful animals

The lamb knelt down to suck its mother's milk.

"The lamb kneels and suckles" comes from the old saying "those who enlarge the sages".

The following are folk stories:

Long ago, a ewe gave birth to a lamb. Mother sheep loves this lamb very much. She snuggled up to her at night, warmed the lamb with her body, and made the lamb sleep soundly. Eating grass during the day, with lambs, inseparable. When other animals bully the lamb, the ewe resists and protects the lamb with her head. Once, mother sheep was feeding a lamb. A hen came up and said, "Mother Sheep, you have lost a lot of weight recently. The lamb swallowed everything it ate. You see, I never care what those chickens eat and drink, but they have to make trouble by themselves. " If mother sheep hates hens, she will say rudely, "What good will it do you if you gossip and end up committing the capital crime of wringing your neck?" The lamb was angry with the hen and said, "Mom, you love me so much. How can I repay your kindness?" Mother sheep said, "I don't want anything in return from you. As long as you have this piece of filial piety, you will be satisfied ... the lamb kneels and suckles."

As long as you have this piece of filial piety, you will be satisfied." After hearing this, the lamb burst into tears and fell to the ground, indicating that it was difficult to repay the kindness of his loving mother. From then on, every time the lamb eats milk, it is kneeling. He knew that his mother fed him with milk, and he thanked her for breastfeeding on his knee. This is "the lamb kneels and suckles".
