A small story of courtesy to neighbors and revenge with virtue
- "Zhu Chong sends cattle".
The image comes from the Internet
During the Western Jin Dynasty, there was a villager named Zhu Chong. When he was a child, because he had no money to go to school, Zhu Chong had to help farm and herd cattle at home.
One day, he was herding cattle in the wild, and one of his neighbors ran over in a panic, looking east, west, and then without saying a word, he took one of Zhu Chong's calves and left. Zhu Chong saw that the neighbor had taken away his calf, and he was not in a hurry or angry.
But the man next to him couldn't look at it anymore, so he said to him, "The man took your calf, why aren't you in a hurry at all?" Hurry up and chase it back! Zhu Chong smiled slightly: "There must be some reason for him to do this, wait until I go home and ask him." ”
Not long after, the man led the calf of Zhu Chong's family back, very ashamed to apologize to Zhu Chong, it turned out that the neighbor's calf ran away, in the process of searching, he thought that Zhu Chong had taken it away, until he saw the calf lost by his family in the forest, and realized that Zhu Chong was wrong. But Zhu Chong did not blame, but sympathized with his hard life and gave him his calf.
Another time, a neighbor who loved to take advantage of the situation always deliberately put cattle in Zhu Chong's field to eat crops. Zhu Chong didn't care when he saw it, but instead brought back some grass at the end of the work, along with the cow that ate the crops, and sent it back to the man's house. Zhu Chong said, "Your family has more cattle and less grass, and my family has more grass, so I will take some for you to feed the cattle!" When you're done, I can send you some more. When the man heard this, he was ashamed and grateful, and said to Zhu Chong, "You are really a very good person!" Rest assured, I will never let the cattle spoil your crops again! ”
Zhu Chong treated people kindly, always loved, and impressed the neighbors with virtue, not only the neighborhood relations became harmonious, but also made a great change in the atmosphere in the village. It can be seen how important it is for neighbors to get along with each other and unite and help each other!
