Han Shin was humiliated by the butcher, and the people around him ignored him
Born into a dilapidated farming family, the young Han Shin's parents died young, leaving him with a dilapidated mud house and a small plot of barren land. There is a big man in the village who works as a butcher and often bullies Han Xin, an orphan and widow.
Once, Han Xin cut a few bundles of grass to feed the sow, and the butcher thought he was in the way and pushed him to the ground. The butcher picked up his thigh and was about to kick Han Xin's crotch, and the terrible force seemed to kick Han Xin in half.
At this time, there were more than a dozen villagers standing around, but none of them said a fair word. Two teenagers laughed and watched the show, one old man brushed his clothes away, and the rest pretended not to know.
Han Xin curled up in pain, gritting his teeth and enduring the humiliation.
Han Xin entered Liu Bang's department and trained war horses day and night
After Han Xin came to Liu Bang's army, he was quickly appreciated by Liu Bang for his diligence and studiousness. Liu Bang sent him to the cavalry battalion of the Han army for training, and Han Xin cherished this opportunity.
Every day from dawn to dusk, Han Xin galloped on the grassland. At first he was not very good at riding horses, and was often dizzy from the bumps on horseback. But he knew the importance of this opportunity for his future, and resolutely endured the pain of the run-in period.
Day after day, Han Shin's riding skills gradually became proficient, and he could easily control the horse to gallop and jump. Watching his shadow on the grassland stretch and shorten, Han felt a sense of pride - he had finally taken a solid step towards realizing his long-cherished wish.
He wants to let those who once looked down on him know that Han Xin is a natural god of war, and he will definitely make great achievements for Liu Bang, overcome thorns and thorns, and kill the enemy for thousands of miles.
Han Xin is like a god and has made great achievements
After hard training, Han Xin finally made great achievements under Liu Bang. Every time he took the lead, he roared, and with a spear in hand, he slammed into the enemy's ranks.
When the enemy saw the young general's extraordinary bravery, they were all frightened, and the ironclad encirclement suddenly collapsed. Han Xin's spear pointed at the enemy's commander-in-chief, causing the enemy to suddenly lose their fighting spirit, throw away their armor and leave.
After Liu Bang saw Han Xin's true skills, he couldn't help but admire again and again, and called this person a natural soldier. Indescribable joy and pride surged in Han's confidence - he finally proved himself that he was no longer the poor creature who was bullied, but a real god of war! At this moment, his heart regained his dignity and found the value and meaning of life.
Han Shin thought back to the past and was grateful to the indifferent
The accomplished Han Shin finally had time to be alone, and he sat in his tent and pondered, reminiscing about the humiliating years of the past. He remembered the scene when he was bullied by the butcher when he was a teenager, and remembered the villagers around him who watched coldly, and none of them reached out to help.
Their indifference and ruthlessness drove the young Han Xin to a corner, but they also inspired him to have a strong sense of resistance. It was they who gave Han Xin the motivation to change his fate, and made Han Xin desperately follow Liu Bang and fight the battlefield.
The resentment accumulated over the years dissipated little by little, and Han Shin understood that indifference is also a kind of warmth - it stimulates our inner strength and allows us to grow. Without the indifference of the past, there would be no achievements now.
Han Shin no longer holds grudges, but instead holds gratitude. He wants to repay those who treat him indifferently with his achievements, because they are also the agents of his destiny.
During the Renaissance, the status of painters increased
During the Renaissance, painting as an art form was valued by the upper class. Many wealthy and famous people invited painters to decorate the ornate castles they built.
Painters carry toolboxes to the high scaffolding and depict the myths of the characters in the murals in brilliant colors and lifelike. Huge historical scenes and landscapes are presented under their pen, and the rich people are full of praise when they see it.
The skills of painters are no longer as simple as manual labor, they need to have a deep understanding of color, perspective, composition, and after a long period of Xi and practical training.
With the popularization of painting in the upper class, the social status of painters has also risen, and they are no longer lowly craftsmen in the eyes of people in the past. Perhaps many painters still remember the hardships when they first started to Xi painting, and those years that were not favored tempered them, and now they can finally hold their heads high.
Zhu Ziqing's father strictly required him to study
Zhu Ziqing's father is a typical traditional scholar from a Jinshi background, and he requires Zhu Ziqing to read and write since he was a child, and he will also enter the school to study when he grows up. Every article written by Zhu Ziqing, his father had to review it, and if he felt that it was not well written, he would angrily throw the article into the furnace and burn it.
Zhu Ziqing often couldn't understand his father's strict requirements, and he was secretly dissatisfied in his heart. Later, Zhu Ziqing got married and had children, and his father often criticized his wife for not doing things properly, and the relationship between the two became more and more tense.
Zhu Ziqing chose to leave his father to live an independent life, and once resented his father's harshness. However, many years later, Zhu Ziqing gradually understood his father's good intentions - his father actually wanted to stimulate his self-improvement heart through strict requirements, so that he could grow into a person who was in charge of himself.
The father's coldness is only a way of teaching, and its purpose is to do the good of the son.
Insight: Apathy stimulates our inner strength
Through the stories of Han Xin and Zhu Ziqing, we can realize that those who treat us indifferently in life may be the promoters of our destiny. In the face of apathy, we should not complain about the unfairness of life, but ponder the mystery of it—indifference often brings out the potential within us and makes us resilient in difficult situations.
When we look back on our lives, we will find that those indifference are actually a kind of alternative warmth, which makes us thrive. Without the indifference of the past, there would be no success now.
So, we have to thank everyone who appears in our lives, even if they only give us coldness, but perhaps it is this layer of frost that makes our hearts resilient and makes us shine in the face of adversity.
When we learn to be grateful for the little things in life, our world will become more loving and harmonious.
