The family's income is not high, but they live in harmony. The couple is very loving, and the daughter is very understanding.

Mother's back did not know when to start growing some small red dots, at first did not care too much, no pain and itch, they do not have health insurance, medical fees is a small expenditure, the barely enough to maintain the expenditure of the family, there is no extra money to go to the doctor, and so the scope of the red dots is getting bigger and bigger, began to hurt and itch when the mother of a person secretly came to the hospital to do the examination, the doctor immediately asked her to hospitalization, the doctor said that she would be very happy to see you. The doctor immediately had to hospitalize her, saying that it was important to observe and watch, and that it could be a sign of leukemia.

The mother told the doctor about her family's financial situation and asked him to prescribe some medicine. The kind doctor gave her some cheapest medicines, and then directed her to the city's Love Hospital, where she could be treated for a very small amount of money, but her disease should be treated early in a big hospital, otherwise it would be life-threatening.

Without telling her husband and daughter, her wife often takes medicines that can only maintain the status quo after she finishes her chores. But paper can't hold fire, after a while, the wife's illness still let her husband and daughter know, they blamed her for not hiding it from her family, and at the same time took her to major hospitals for checkups and treatments. Strangely enough, all the hospitals could not finally diagnose whether she was suffering from leukemia or not. They all agreed that she should be hospitalized and the only savings the family had were soon spent, and they also borrowed some external debts from relatives and friends, but there was still no sign of improvement in the wife's illness. Daughter is usually a good child with little to say, the heart is very opinionated. I've been watching my mother being tortured by her illness, and it's like a knife in my heart, but I can't do anything about it.

New Year's Eve is approaching, and the daughter told her mother that she would have to go to the Spring Festival early in the morning. The mother has always been assured of her daughter's safety.

That year's Spring Festival was particularly cold, the daughter went out in the morning, to the evening more than ten o'clock before returning home. The parents were anxious, but looked at their daughter's red face, a word of blame did not say.

After two months, the mother's body of the small red spots slowly receded, to the hospital check, the doctor felt incredible, or with those drugs, even produced such a healing effect. I don't know if it's the medicine that's magical, or if it's the body that's miraculous.

One day the daughter said to her mother, she wants to go to Mount Tai. The mother advised her daughter to wait for a period of time, when her father was free to accompany her to go. The daughter blurted out that there is no need, last time I went alone it does not matter.

The last time?

This is the first time I've been to the United States.

Daughter see can not be covered up, said the truth: the day of the Spring Festival, the unit did not hold activities, listening to people say, the top of Mount Tai fairy is very spiritual, especially on the first day of every year, the gods to worship the Buddha is more spiritual. In order to be able to go back and forth on that day, so that parents do not worry, she will be in the early morning of the first day of the New Year, alone on the train to Taishan, bumpy three hours after arriving at Taishan, did not stop to climb to the mountain. In every temple she passed, she kneeled down to worship the gods and made a New Year's wish: May the gods bless her mom's recovery as soon as possible! Now that the gods have finally blessed her mother, and her mother's body is gradually recovering, she is going to return the wish.

Mother heard here, can no longer suppress the excitement, she hugged her daughter's thin body, choking back tears, children, mom's life is you save! This is a 58-year-old Henan Jiaozuo coal mine workers get up early every day after the "mandatory subjects" - while the whole family ready for breakfast, while the 86-year-old mother-in-law to wash the face and comb hair, and then to greet the 56-year-old mentally retarded wife and brother to eat.

Over the past 36 years, like the name "Xie Yanshun", he has kept and continued his promise, touched everyone around him with optimism and simple smile, and never bowed to the difficulties of life.

In 1973, Xie Yanshun married Xie Lan'e, a young woman from his hometown who didn't mind being poor. A year later, his wife died of post-partum syndrome after giving birth to a baby. Before dying, she held Xie Yanshin's hand for a long time unwilling to let go: "Please take care of my poor parents and younger brother!"

In order to appease the loss of their daughter's parents-in-law, so that they believe that they will not leave the family, Xie Yanshun changed his father-in-law and the same name, became a real "Xie family".

The gods of fate never seemed to favor Xie Yanshin, but in the spring of 1979, his father-in-law, Xie Zhaoyu, was hospitalized after a deep stroke while working at the Zhucun mine, and his life was saved, but he could never stand up.

In the next 18 years to wait for his father-in-law's days, Xie Yanxin's own actions to overturn the folk saying that "no son of filial piety in front of the bed of a long time": he helped the old man massage, turn over, scrubbing, activities, and to use the money earned to buy the old man fruits, but he ate a long time to eat pickled pickles.

In 1983, Xie Yanshun entered the Coking Coal Group's Zhucun mine as a digger. A lot of people proposed marriage to Xie Yanshin, but once they met, a lot of people were discouraged. Xie Yanxin to the other side of the conditions put forward only one: must not leave his father-in-law's family of three people. In September 1984, a kind peasant girl Xie Fanxiang into the Xie family, became Xie Yanshin's wife. Talking about why to choose Xie Yanshun, Xie Fanxiang's reason is only one: "He is so good to his ex-wife's parents, I can not be worse." Now, 26 years have passed, they have always been in the same boat, *** with the burden of the family.

On his current life, Xie Yanshun is very satisfied with all the hardships of the past, he talked about it and did not have any complaints. He loves calligraphy, and his small house is filled with calligraphic banners, full of scrolls.

Stories about filial piety Part 3

In the first decade of the first century A.D., Wang Mang usurped the throne and seized the rule of the Han Dynasty, changing the country's name to Xin.

The whole country of China was thrown into a state of fear and unrest everywhere. Farmers could no longer work their fields because they had been ravaged by chariots and horses; merchants were afraid of looting and closed their doors; and young men were dragged off to work as laborers or bandits.

At that time, there was a young man named Cai Shun, who lost his father at a very young age and was raised by his mother. He was raised by his mother, who sewed and mended things for him. Because of the recent war and chaos, there was no work in the fields, so he had to carry a basket every day to look for food in the wild. In fact, all the wild vegetables, taro and carrots in the nearby fields had been dug up. One day he walked farther and farther, and the sun was baking like a fire, roasting his thirst and drying his tongue. After walking for a while, he was lucky to see a mulberry forest in front of him. He went into the mulberry forest and saw no one, the owner of the mulberry forest had long ago fled to the field. Inside the mulberry forest, it was very cool and green.

He hung the baskets on the ends of the stretcher and prepared to carry them home. Suddenly, he heard sharp footsteps and human voices outside the mulberry forest. He thought to himself, "Hey! Someone is coming, maybe some robbers are passing through here?" He was so frightened that he stood there not daring to move a muscle.

"And take care of mom? But why are you here?" A bandit yelled.

"I came here to find food, mom and I haven't had anything to eat for days. I couldn't find food anywhere this morning, so I easily came here and picked some mulberry fruits, ready to take them back to my mom. If you want them, you can take all the red mulberry fruits."

"Is it true? But why is one basket black and one red?"

Cai Shun said, "The black mulberry is sweet and ready for my mom to eat; the red mulberry fruits are not ripe enough and a bit sour for me to eat myself. So if you want to eat it, moncler, please take away the red mulberry fruit."

"Really, are you telling the truth?" One of the bandits frowned and asked, "The sweet mulberry fruit is for your mom? The sour mulberry fruit is for yourself?"

"Yes, I love my mom, I am her only son and relative. Everything is the truth, moncler." Cai Shun answered truthfully.

The red-eyebrowed thief, who looked like the leader, was greatly surprised, "Ah! In this time of turmoil, it is rare to meet a filial child like you! Frankly speaking, none of us can compare to you! Great, we have finally met a filial son today, a truly filial son!"

This group of Red Eyebrows thieves, not only did not take away Cai Shun's mulberry fruit, but instead pulled Cai Shun to their big cart, took down a bag of white rice and some food from the cart, and gave it to Cai Shun, saying, "Young man! This is our gift to you, take it back and eat it slowly with your mother! You, a filial child, deserve to eat these things more than any of us. Come on, get in the car and we'll take you home."

The story of filial piety Part 11

Bao Gong that is Bao Zheng (999-1062 AD), the word Xiren, Luzhou Hefei (now Hefei City, Anhui Province), his father, Bao Yi, served as Chaozan Daifu, after his death, posthumously awarded the Ministry of Criminal Affairs Minister. He was known for his filial piety as a young boy, and for his straightforward and generous nature. In the fifth year of Emperor Renzong's reign, in 1027 A.D., he was awarded a bachelor's degree at the age of 28. He was first appointed as a judge of the Da Lisi, and later became the governor of Jianchang (present-day Yongxiu, Jiangxi Province). Because his parents were old and did not want to go with him to another country, Bao immediately resigned from his post and returned home to take care of his parents. His filial piety was praised by the officials.

After a few years, his parents passed away, and he returned to his career. This was only after the folks had persuaded him to go. In feudal society, if a parent had only one son, then that son could not leave his parents behind and go abroad to become an official by himself. This was against the provisions of the feudal law. Usually, the parents would follow their son for the sake of his future. Or the son with other people in the family to persuade. It was rare in feudal times for parents to be reluctant to follow their son to retire where he was an official, because it meant that the son would have to abide by the constraints of feudal etiquette - resigning from his official position to care for himself. The history books do not state the exact reason, it may be that his parents were sick and could not bear the bumps on the road, which is why Bao Gong resigned from his official position.

Regardless of the circumstances, the fact that Bao Gong was able to voluntarily resign from his official position still shows that he was not the kind of person who was obsessed with officialdom. The filial piety and respect for his parents is also an example for some of today's under-qualified people. In the past, most stories were about the iron face of Bao Gong, which neglected the filial piety of Bao Gong to his parents.

The story of filial piety Part 12

Filial piety can enrich the foothold of one's life, guide the direction of the journey of life, and nourish the value of infinite life realm. In today's world, it may seem outdated to talk about filial piety, but it is the secret of the development of human potential, and it is also the basic virtue of a person's life in the world.

The filial piety is the scripture of heaven, the righteousness of the earth, the behavior of man, and the foundation of virtue.

The grace of birth is soaked in the universe, and the virtue of restoration is equal to that of the heavens.

The ideal of life is ultimate care. We have accompanied our parents through old age, watching their shoulders no longer solid, hair gray, and even from time to time, but their hearts through the years, naturally emitting a kind of light, can be a candle in the hustle and bustle of the world and the human condition. The elderly are the treasure of mankind, and the more traditional a civilization is, the more importance it attaches to the elderly. The Chinese often say, "If there is an old man in the family, there is a treasure", which is really a profoundly wise saying. A person who does not dare to face up to aging, illness and death is obviously not mature enough. Especially in the face of these difficulties with our beloved parents, we will naturally make a holistic and deep reflection on life, and thus establish our own more authentic beliefs.

The home is the root of a person's being, a base for the continuation of traditional concepts, from which our meaning of life is nourished, grows, and matures, and from which the value and meaning of life is inspired and realized. Therefore, it is important to understand that love begins with the family, and even extends to others, which is what every human being aspires to and desires to accomplish, and is the manifestation of human nature and true self-fulfillment.

Jesus Christ once said, "As far as the world is concerned, it was I who was crucified, and as far as I am concerned, it was the world that was crucified."

Perhaps, we really crucified ourselves in the externalization of the unawareness of the idea, the human nature of the conscience nailed to the competition in the merciless materialization of life, so that the eternal value of the real self is trapped in the vortex of the birth of the unrealistic delusion of the empty dream.

Few modern people are so awakened, not in this life, not in the next. If the mind cannot be awakened, there is no way to experience it, and the value of a life full of inner vitality can't be developed, leaving only a natural, short-lived life that is pieced together by foreign transplanted and undigested knowledge, and then the meaning of life will be atrophied due to the externalization of the human personality into "I am all that I am," and when others ask me "Who am I? When someone asks me who I am, the answer may be only what I "have". If the human nature (inner self) is dissolved in external fame, fortune, power and position, the ideal of life will be completely lost, and the happiness of life will be unprotected, because everything people have is only temporarily borrowed, and when the time has changed, or even at the end of his life, what else do I really "have"? It is a painful bondage to be awakened to such a lack of meaning of existence!

Anyone who cannot live out the value life of the group from the natural life of the individual, who cannot transcend the isolation of individual existence, and who cannot awaken to the value of the existence of human nature as a whole, will not be able to realize the deepest requirement of human nature - ultimate care (moral practice), and the value potential of human nature will not be able to grow and manifest due to the lack of interaction of the mind. The value potential of human nature will not be realized due to the lack of spiritual interaction and inspiration. At the beginning of human growth, the potential of the heart develops a special power due to the special care of parental affection. Human beings are blessed with a long period of early childhood dependence, a long period of physical and mental dependence on their parents, and the family is like a person's root, from which we get rest and recuperation, as well as growth and maturity. The family fulfills the requirements of human nature and enables us to have the deepest care for our parents from the primordial emotion of human communion, which is then gradually extended to others. The true heart of this human connection is the moral practice that comes from within, the humanistic foundation of father's kindness and son's filial piety. The connotation of filial piety is to return to the deepest feelings of the heart, to express sincere concern for the human world, the universe and life.

For a long time, history has taught us that, in the long run, it is easiest for us to reveal our true nature in the family, and that true and pure character is cultivated at home, and that filial piety is the first and foremost foundation of character cultivation. Only by harmonizing fundamental human relationships, starting with the family, can we establish a normal order of life and integrate into the wider community. Confucius and Mencius had a particularly deep experience of filial piety, and so they both emphasized clearly that life must be based on filial piety and virtue in order to have true fulfillment and satisfaction.
