A dutiful son cut off his thigh and fed it to the poor old mother. Who is he?

Cai Yuanpei cut meat and fed it to his mother.

Cai Yuanpei's mother was widowed at an early age and raised three children alone. The good times didn't last long. When Cai Yuanpei 19 years old, her mother became ill from overwork, and her stomach trouble worsened, so she could not take medicine well. Cai Yuanpei's mother is the most filial. I heard that cutting off the arm meat as medicine can prolong life 12 years, but she still left a small piece of meat on her left arm for her family to treat her mother with medicine. When my brother learned that, he also imitated cutting meat to treat his mother's illness. But everyone in the world didn't want to. Their beloved mother finally couldn't resist death and passed away.

It is in line with the reality of the army to carry out "family education" among officers and men. As the army of China, we should use the excellent culture of China to educate young soldiers. We should love our own relatives and respect our parents. I put forward Twenty-Seven Filial Pieties as a reference.

"What is twenty-seven filial piety?" Twenty-four Filial Pieties written by Guo in Yuan Dynasty, together with Cai Yuanpei, Zhang Zongchang and Xu. Xu is a general in our army, but he has traditional filial piety. The story of "loyalty before death, filial piety after death" is well known. Zhang Zongchang, a great Shandong warlord, is a bad man, but the bad man is famous for being filial to his mother, who makes him worse. The story of Cai Yuanpei cutting meat to feed his mother made it hard for young officers to believe: "Don't blame the old leader wrongly. Isn't the great educator ignorant of science and stupid? " .

Twenty-four filial piety, mostly fools. Ten of them are from Shandong, all of them are idiots. The place where Wang Xiang lies on the ice looking for carp is not far from my hometown. It is in the Wangjiashuanghu River in the northern suburb of Linyi City. Now it's called Xiao He or Wang Xianghe. Wang Xiang, a scholar and official, took off his clothes in the ice and snow, warmed the river ice with his body and took carp for his stepmother. "Wang Xiang is so stupid, why not smash the ice?" Some people question it. I can't find the right words to answer: "At that time, the carp in Linyi was still very stupid, and was moved by Wang Xiang's filial piety and jumped out."

Confucianism attaches great importance to people's filial piety and becomes the first of all virtues. Driven by filial piety, Cai Yuanpei did some stupid things that did not conform to the status of a great educator. Under the guidance of serving the people infinitely, Lei Feng became the first fool warrior loved by the people.
