V Three Stories of Mencius' Mother Teaching Her Son

Stories of Mencius' Mother Teaching Her Son:

I. Three Moves to Choose Neighbors:

1. Mencius, whose name was Meng Ke, was born in Teal Village, which is 25 miles north of the present Zoucheng City in Shandong Province (now belonging to the city of Qufu). According to the biography of Meng, the original residence of the Meng family was near a cemetery. Playing and imitating are the nature of children, and since they often saw crowds of mourners passing by, Meng Ke and the other children "enthusiastically built tombs and buried them for the purpose of burial". They mimicked the crowds of mourners, and played enthusiastically with carrying coffins and burying the dead. Mencius mother thought that such an environment would affect the child's reading, hinder the formation of normal thinking, and lead the child to an unhealthy path.

2. Meng mother decided to move, and resolutely brought Meng Ke to move to Miaotouying village, which is far away from the cemetery. Miaotuying village is located in the northwest of Zoucheng city, which was a busy market town at that time. Meng Ke was immersed in this bustling marketplace, and gradually began to play business with the children of the marketplace, learning from his peers how to buy and sell, how to bargain, and how to slaughter pigs and goats like the neighboring butchers. Meng mother felt that this is still not the ideal place to train the children, so the children will easily be influenced by the vendors and not serious about reading.

3. After living in this market town for just half a year, Meng's mother decided to move her residence once again. They moved to the side of the school palace. This palace is located in the present Zoucheng South Gate Chongjiao outside the east of the road, is the grandson of Confucius, that is, Zi Si set up the Palace of Lecture, later called it "Zi Si Shuyuan". Later, Zi Si's students in this apprenticeship lectures.

4. The mother of Meng thought that if her child lived near the palace, he would be influenced by the atmosphere of the palace, and it would be convenient for him to study when he grew up. After the mother and son moved here, the talented Meng Ke was really attracted by the sound of reading in the academy, and often went to the academy to follow the study of poems and books, and practiced etiquette. Meng's mother was so happy that she had finally found the ideal place to raise her child that she settled down here. Later, she sent Meng Ke to the academy to study with Zi Si's disciples, so that Meng Zi embarked on the path of learning.

Second, breaking the loom to teach her son:

1. Although Meng Zi was intelligent by nature, he also had the naughty nature of a normal child. After studying at the Academy for some time, the freshness of the beginning passed, and his playful nature could not be changed, so he sometimes skipped school and lied to his mother that he was looking for something lost. Once Mencius ran home early again, and his mother, who was knitting, realized that he had skipped school again. Mencius' mother called Mencius to her and cut off all the half-woven cloth.

2. When Mencius asked why this was necessary, Mencius' mother replied, "The son's abolition of learning is like my cutting off the weaving!" Only through perseverance and persistence can one acquire profound knowledge and become successful, and one must not give up halfway. Truancy is like a broken machine, the line is broken, the cloth can not be woven, often truancy, inevitably learning nothing.

3. Meng Ke came to his senses, and from then on, he studied hard and lived up to his mother's expectations, and finally became a great thinker and educator.

Third, kill the dolphin does not deceive the son

Meng mother for the growth of the child's character is also very important, her "kill the dolphin does not deceive the son," the story of the posterity to this day let the admiration. Once, a neighbor was sharpening his knife and preparing to kill a piglet. Mencius was very curious, so he ran to his mother and asked, "What is the neighbor doing?" "Killing a pig." "Killing a pig for what?" Meng's mother smiled and said casually, "It's for you to eat." As soon as she finished saying this, Meng's mother regretted it, thinking, "It wasn't for my child to kill the pig, so why did I deceive him? Am I not teaching him to lie? In order to make up for this mistake, Meng's mother really bought her neighbor's pork and gave it to Meng Zi to eat, so as to teach her child to be a man of his word and to be true to his deeds.

First, all things first:

1, after Mencius married his wife, he did not like his wife, that she was too arrogant. One day, when the weather was very hot, his wife came home from working in the fields and went into the room to take off her clothes and cool off, just as Mencius suddenly pushed the door in. Seeing his wife naked in the room to cool off, Meng Zi exceptionally angry, that his wife's behavior is slutty, do not abide by the rules of etiquette, immediately had the idea of repudiation of his wife.

2. Mencius' mother, after knowing this, severely reprimanded Mencius, saying: You should knock on the door before entering and ask if there is someone in the room before you can go in, and you pushed the door in without knocking, which is the first time you lost etiquette and is not your wife's fault. After listening to his mother's words, Mencius felt that he had been too reckless and was ashamed that he had not applied what he had learned in his life. Since then, he had no more trouble with his wife and made peace with her. Meng's mother used the family to educate Meng Zi, "everything is polite first," and her knowledge is admirable.

Secondly, she advised her son to go far away:

1. Meng's mother worked hard for her family all her life, and even though Meng Zi had already grown up, she never relaxed her education and supervision of Meng Zi. In the state of Qi, Meng Zi repeatedly expounded his political ideas to King Xuan of Qi. Although King Xuan of Qi rewarded Meng Zi with an annual salary of 100,000 bells, he refused to actively promote his political ideas. He wanted to go to the state of Song, which was willing to adopt his political ideas, but he was worried that his mother was old and had no one to take care of her.

2. Knowing what was on her son's mind, Meng's mother said to her son, "When you are young, you follow your parents; when you get married, you follow your husband; when your husband dies, you follow your son. Now my son is an adult, and I am old! The son acts in accordance with the son's righteousness, and I act in accordance with my rites." Meng mother's words swept away Meng Zi's worries and hesitations, Meng Zi traveled around the world with his family and was welcomed by an unprecedented number of countries, and his political ideas were successfully implemented in many vassal states.

3. It was at this time that Meng's mother, who had devoted her life to her son, fell ill at the moment when she watched her son's success with her own eyes, full of the joy of a mother's success. On the way back to the burial of his hometown, along the way through the place, regardless of the people officials, all scrambling to the roadside to pay homage, to express the great mother's respect and condolences

Six Meng mother story of the three original

kill dolphins do not deceive the son: when the Meng family is still in the village of Miaotouying marketplace next to the residence of Meng Zi saw the neighbors to kill the pig, puzzled to ask his mother: "What do the neighbors to kill a pig for? Meng Zi asked his mother, "What is the neighbor doing killing a pig?" Meng's mother, who was busy at the time, casually replied, "To cook meat for you to eat!" Mencius was very happy and waited for the meat. Meng's mother knew that one must be honest, and that "words must be faithful, actions must be fruitful", and she also knew that teaching by example is more important than words. In order not to lose faith in her son, despite the difficulties at home, Meng's mother took the money to buy a piece of pork from her neighbor to the east, so that her son could have a good meal.

Three moves to choose neighbors: Mengzi's family lived in Zoucheng North Maanshan, near a cemetery, the foothills of the mountain grave Ying everywhere, from time to time to see the funeral situation. Mencius and the village children together to imitate the adults to play the funeral process, and sometimes also grab people's offerings of fruit to eat, Meng's mother found that her son was affected by the bad environment, from the eider village moved to the west of the city Miaotou Ying. Here is a "day for the market" trading bazaar, the market businessmen sitting in the market, auction noisy, and the neighbor is a butcher to kill pigs, Mencius will be pinched into a pig with clay, imitating his neighbor's appearance with a bamboo slice to kill, and sell along the street. Meng's mother was so disturbed that she moved again, moving her home to the southern part of the county, next to the academy. There were often scholars coming and going near the palace, and their elegance, calm demeanor, graceful manners and well-behaved etiquette had a subtle influence on Mencius. Together with his companions, he practiced the etiquette of giving and receiving in the palace, a solemn scene that made Meng's mother, who was watching from afar, very happy: "This is the best living environment for children!" She sincerely exclaimed, and sent Mencius to study in the palace, leaving behind the beautiful story of "three moves to choose neighbors".

The story of Mencius is a metaphor for learning: Mencius was initially very interested in learning, but after a long time, he got bored and often skipped school. When Meng's mother found out about it, she was so angry that she took a knife and cut the warp threads on the loom, saying: "Your lack of learning is just like me cutting the threads on the loom, which are woven one by one, and now the threads are cut, so the cloth can't be woven. A gentleman seeks to learn in order to achieve success and fame, and it is only by learning and asking that one can increase one's wisdom. How can you become useful by skipping school so often? If you don't study hard today, but are too lazy to cultivate your body and virtues, you will not be able to keep away from trouble in the future, and if you don't become a robber in the future, you will be reduced to a servant!" Mencius' mother used "weaving" as a metaphor for "dropping out of school", pointing out that one must have perseverance in one's work, and once one has set one's sights on a goal, one must not be disturbed by the outside world. The consequences of giving up halfway would be very serious. The scene of the "broken weave metaphor" in the small mind of Mencius, leaving a sharp impression of both fear and surprise, Mencius from now on diligently study, and finally became a Confucian master in the history of our country.

The story of Mencius' mother called me to understand: parents should shape a good learning environment and atmosphere for children, and parents of children to do "words must be faithful, deeds must be fruitful", said to do not missing is honesty, honesty is not innate, but the cultivation of the day after tomorrow. In the children just understand that parents should help them to set up in the heart of the "honesty-based". I have benefited a lot from the three stories of Mencius' mother teaching her children. (

Story

Mencius was a great thinker during the Warring States period. Mengzi lost his father when he was a child, and relied on his mother, Ni, to spin and weave cloth day and night to carry the heavy burden of living. Ni was a hard-working and insightful woman who wanted her son to study and become successful soon.

Once, Meng's mother saw Meng Ke fighting with the neighbor's children, Meng felt that the environment was not good and moved away.

On another day, Meng saw the neighbor's blacksmith's house with a big furnace, and several blacksmiths covered with oil were working on the iron. Meng Ke was in the corner of the yard, using a brick as an anvil and a wooden stick as a hammer, imitating the movements of the master blacksmith, and playing with it! When Meng's mother thought about it, the environment here was still not good, so she moved home again.

This time she moved her home to the middle of nowhere. One day, Mencius saw a funeral procession in mourning clothes, crying and carrying the coffin to the graveyard, where a few strong young men dug out the grave with hoes and buried the coffin. He thought it was quite funny, so he imitated their actions, also dug up the ground with a branch, and seriously buried a twig as if it were a dead person. It was only when Meng's mother came looking for him that she dragged him back home.

Meng's mother moved for the third time. This time, her home was next door to a school, where a gray-bearded teacher taught a group of small and large students. The teacher led the students to read every day with his head bobbing, and his voice was like a song, and the naughty Meng Ke followed him with his head bobbing. Meng's mother was so happy that she sent Meng Ke to school, thinking that her son liked to study.

But one day, Meng Ke skipped school. When Meng Ke came back from his playtime, his mother was very upset. When Meng Ke came back from playing, his mother called him to her side and said, "If you are greedy to skip school and don't study, you will be like a cut piece of cloth, you can't weave; if you can't weave, you won't have any clothes to wear; if you don't study well, you will never be able to become a talented person." Said, copied up the scissors, "wow" sound, the loom will be woven on the cloth cut off.

Meng Ke froze in fear. This time, Meng Ke's heart was really shaken. He thought seriously for a long time, and finally realized the truth, and from then on, he concentrated on reading books. Because of his natural intelligence, he later specialized in studying with Confucius' grandson, Zi Si, and finally became the main representative of Confucianism.

VIII The Story of Mencius' Mother

Mencius' Mother's Three Moves

The Biography of a Daughter: "Zou Meng Ke's mother was also called Mencius' Mother. Her house was near the tomb. When Mencius was young, he played for the tomb, and enthusiastically built and buried it. Mencius' mother said, 'This is not where I live.' Meng's mother said, 'This is not where I want to live.' She went to her house next to the market. When Mencius was a boy, he played with the things that were being sold by the merchants. Meng's mother said, 'This is not where I want to live with my son. She then moved to the side of the school palace. The playground was set up with chopping boards and beans, and people were invited to enter and leave. Meng's mother said: 'I can live with my son.' So she resided there. When Mencius grew up, he learned the six arts and became known as a great scholar. The gentleman said that Meng's mother was good at gradualization."

Meng Zi, name Ke. He was a native of the state of Lu (in what is now Shandong Province) during the Warring States period. His father died when he was three years old, and he was raised by his mother. As a child, Mencius was playful and imitative. His family used to live near a cemetery, and he used to play games like building graves or learning others to cry and worship. His mother thought this was not good, so she moved the family to the neighborhood of a marketplace, and Mencius imitated others' games of doing business and killing pigs. Meng's mother thought this was not a good environment either, so she moved her home next to a schoolhouse. Mencius then followed the students to learn manners and knowledge. Meng's mother thought that this was what her child should learn, and was so happy that she did not move again. This is the famous story of "Three Moves of Mencius' Mother".

Meng's mother broke her weaving

The Extraordinary Biography of Han Dynasty Poetry: "When Meng Zi was young, he was reciting, and his mother was weaving. When Mencius was young, his mother was weaving. His mother was aware of his friendship. She called out and asked him, 'Why did you stop?' She said, 'I lost something, but I gained it back.' His mother admonished him by breaking his weave with a knife. Since then, Mengzi has not been able to fulfill his promise."

The Legend of the Daughters: "Meng Zi's young also, both learning and return. Meng mother square performance, asked: 'Learning to carry on.' Meng Zi said: 'Since if also.' Mencius' mother cut off his weaving with a knife. Mencius was afraid and asked why. Mencius's mother said, 'The son's abolition of learning is like my breaking his weaving. A gentleman learns to make a name for himself, and asks questions to gain knowledge. This is the reason why they live in peace, and when they move, they are far away from harm. Now, the abolition, is not exempt from the service and not to leave the disaster. Why is it different from the weaving performance and food, the middle way to abolish and not to do, rather than clothing their husband and long not lack of food! If a woman is to waste her food, if a man is to fall in the cultivation of virtue, and if she is not to steal, then she will be a captive.' Mencius was afraid, and he studied diligently at all times. He studied under Zi Si, and became a famous scholar in the world. The gentleman said: Meng mother knows the way to be a mother."

For Mengzi's education, Meng's mother paid more attention. In addition to sending him to school, she also urged him to study. One day, Mencius skipped school from his teacher, Zisi, and went home. Mencius' mother was weaving, and when she saw Mencius skipping school, she was so angry that she picked up a pair of scissors and cut the cloth on the loom. Seeing this, Mencius was terrified and knelt down to ask why. Mencius' mother rebuked him, saying, "Your study is like my weaving. The cloth must be woven thread by thread into an inch, and then into a foot, and then into a zhang or a pi, and only when it is finished will it be something useful. Learning must also come by accumulation of time, day and night, and diligently seeking. If you are lazy, don't study well, and give up halfway, you will become useless like this section of cloth that has been cut off."

Mencius listened to his mother's teaching and was y ashamed. From then on, he concentrated on his studies, and practiced the teachings of the sages, and finally became a great scholar, known as the "Sage".

Stop Zi out of his wife

"Han Shi Wai Zhuan": "Meng Zi's wife lived alone, crouching. Mencius entered and looked at her, and said to her mother, 'The woman is impolite. Said: 'Why?' He said, 'I'm crouching.' His mother said: 'How do you know?' Mencius said, 'I saw it myself.' His mother said: 'It is you who are impolite, not the woman who is impolite. Ritual is not: will enter the door, ask who exists; will go to the hall, the voice must be raised; will enter the house.... The view must be down. Do not hide people are not prepared. Now you go to the Yan private place, into the house does not have a sound, people are entrenched and look at it, it is you are not polite, not the woman is not polite.'' So Mencius blamed himself and did not dare to go to the woman."

The Legend of the Ladies: "Mengzi married, will enter the private room, the woman bared and inside. The woman was not happy, so she went and did not enter the room. The woman resigned from Meng's mother and begged to go, said: 'I heard that the way of husband and wife, private rooms are not with. Now I am in the room, and I am happy to see you, but I am a guest. A woman's duty is not to stay in a private room, so please return to your parents.' Then Mencius' mother summoned Mencius and said: 'The etiquette of the man is that when he is about to enter a house, he should ask who is there, so as to show respect; when he is about to go to the hall, his voice should be raised, so as to warn others; when he is about to enter a house, his eyes should be lowered, so as to fear that others may pass by. Now, if you do not observe etiquette, but blame etiquette on others, is it not far from the truth? Meng Zi thanked, and then stayed his wife gentleman said: mother Meng know the etiquette and the way of the aunt."

Buying a dolphin to eat a son

The Extraordinary Biography of Han Shi: "When Mencius was young, the east family killed a dolphin. Mencius asked his mother, 'What is the purpose of killing a dolphin?' His mother said: 'To eat you.' His mother regretted and said: 'I am pregnant with a son, the seat is not correct not to sit, cut not correct not to eat, the fetus taught. This is suitable to know and deceive, is to teach not believe also.' He bought the dolphin meat from an eastern family and ate it, so he was not deceived. The Poetry says: 'It is desirable that your children and grandchildren should be taught the ropes', which means that a virtuous mother makes her children virtuous."

Translation: When Mencius was a young man, there was a time when his eastern neighbor killed a pig, and Mencius asked his mother, "Why did the eastern neighbor kill the pig?" Meng's mother said, "To give you meat." Meng's mother later regretted it and said, "When I was pregnant with this child, I didn't sit down when the mat was improperly arranged, and I didn't eat the meat when it was improperly cut, all of which was a foetal teaching for him (Meng Zi), but now that he has just learned his lesson and I am cheating him, I am teaching him to be untrustworthy." So she bought the pork of the proprietor's house and gave it to Mencius to prove that she had not deceived him.
