1. Chiseling the wall to borrow light

When the Western Han Dynasty was in progress, there was a farmer's child named Kuangheng. When he was young, he wanted to study very much, but because his family was poor, he couldn't afford to go to school. Later, he learned to read from a relative, and only then did he have the ability to read books. Kuang Heng could not afford to buy books, so he had to borrow books to read. At that time, books were very expensive, and those who had them refused to lend them to others easily. Kuang Heng then worked as a short-term laborer for rich people during the busy farming season, asking them to lend him books instead of paying for them.

After a few years, Kuang Heng grew up and became the main laborer of his family. He worked in the field all day long, and only when he rested at noon did he have time to read a little, so it often took ten days and half a month to finish a volume. Kuang Heng was very anxious, and thought to himself, "I have no time to read during the daytime when I plant crops, but I can make use of more time in the evening to read books.

But Kuang Heng's family was so poor that they could not afford to buy the oil to light the lamps. One night, Kuang Heng was lying in bed, memorizing the books he had read during the day. As he was memorizing, he suddenly saw a bright light coming from the east wall. He stood up, walked to the wall and saw that the light coming through the crack was his neighbor's light.

So Kuang Heng came up with a plan: he took a knife and dug the crack in the wall a little wider. The light coming through was also bigger, so he read a book with the light coming through. Kuangheng studied hard in this way, and later became a very learned man?
