What is the story of a girl eating a bowl of rice for her daughter?

The origin of this story is Biography of Historical Records of Huaiyin Hou, which originated from the story of Han Xin, a famous soldier in the early Han Dynasty, who was rewarded for a little kindness.

Han Xin, a native of Huaiyin, had a hard time when his parents died as a teenager, and often had no place to eat. "I have to go fishing in the Huaihe River at the gate, and I can sell it for a few dollars after I catch the fish. If I don't catch it, I will starve.

There are a group of grandmothers rinsing silk floss by the Huaihe River. Each of them is working here with a rice basket. One of them saw Han Xin faint from hunger, so she gave him her own food, which lasted for dozens of days. Han Xin was very grateful and said to her aunt,' I will repay you well in the future. "Aunt is angry. He said, "I only gave you food because I was sorry for you. How can I repay you? "

Han Xin was later appreciated by Liu Bang, the Emperor Gaozu, and worshipped as a general. He made great contributions to Emperor Gaozu in the Chu-Han War. He, Sean and Xiao He were also called "Three Heroes of Han Xing", and Han Xin was named King of Chu. Chu is the hometown of Han Xin, who is kind; I managed to find the old woman floating in the past, thanked her and gave her a thousand dollars in return. The floating mother didn't want the money, but she couldn't refuse, so she had to thank her and leave.

According to this story, later generations derived the idiom "a meal is dry gold", which means to be treated well. Some people also use "the grace of a meal" to show that gratitude will be rewarded.
