Introduction to the Main Contents of Twenty-four Filial Piety Pictures

"Twenty-four Filial Pieties" is a book telling the story of twenty-four filial sons in ancient China, with pictures. Filial piety is the core of Confucian ethics, the moral criterion for maintaining family relations in China for thousands of years, and the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. In Yuan Dynasty, Guo compiled the stories of 24 filial sons in ancient times into Twenty-four Filial Piety Classics. The following are the main contents of 24 filial piety pictures I compiled for you, for reference only, I hope it will help you!

Twenty-four filial piety pictures are from Mr. Lu Xun's collection of reminiscence essays, "Morning Flowers Picking Up in the Evening".

"Filial piety" is the core of Confucian ethics, the moral criterion for maintaining family relations in China for thousands of years, and the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. In Yuan Dynasty, Guo compiled the stories of 24 filial sons in ancient times into Twenty-four Filial Piety Classics. Later printed books were all equipped with pictures, commonly known as "24 filial piety pictures", which became popular reading materials to promote filial piety. Filial piety is the essence of China traditional culture.

In addition, Lu Xun believes that the main purpose of the 24 th filial piety map is to promote feudal filial piety. Starting with his feelings of reading Twenty-four Filial Pieties when he was a child, he mainly described the strong antipathy caused by reading two stories, Lao Lai Entertainment and Guo Ju Buried the Son.

job responsibility

I always have to go up and down to find the blackest, blackest and blackest mantra, and curse all those who oppose and hinder the vernacular first. Even if a person really has a soul after death, he will go to hell because of this sinful heart and never repent. He must first curse all those who oppose and hinder the vernacular.

Since the so-called "literary revolution", children's books have been compared with Europe, America and Japan. Although poor, there is still a picture to say in the end. As long as they can read on, they can understand. But people with ulterior motives try their best to stop it and make the children's world no fun.

Anyone who tries to hurt dialects should be eliminated.

These words, gentlemen naturally have to cover their ears, because as the saying goes, "jump up and swear, and still refuse to give up." Moreover, the scribes must also scold, thinking that this is a big violation of "style", that is, a big loss of "personality." Isn't it "the voice of the speaker" "Wen" and "people" are of course related. Although the world is strange, there are some special races among professors who "don't respect" the author's personality and can't "say his novels are good". But I don't care about this, because fortunately I didn't climb the "ivory tower", so I don't need to be careful. If you accidentally hit it, you will fall immediately. However, in the middle of the fall, before we reach the ground, we must say it again:

Anyone who tries to hurt dialects should be eliminated.

Every time I see primary school students looking at a simple children's world with joy and thinking of the exquisite books used by children in other countries, I naturally feel sorry for the children in China. But when I recall my childhood with my classmates, I can't help but think that he is happy and pay a sad condolence to our eternal youth. What are we going to see then? As long as there is a little picture in the book, it will be banned, reprimanded and even slapped by the then "predecessor" teacher. My little classmate died because he was bored reading "Nature is good at the beginning of life", so he had to secretly open the first page and look at the devil-like kuixing with the words "satellite shining high" to satisfy his naive nature of loving beauty. I saw this yesterday and this today, but their eyes are still shining with the light of awakening and joy.

Outside the bookstore, the ban can be relatively lenient, but this is your own business, and everyone is probably different. What I can read in front of the public with dignity are Wen Chang Di Yin Jun Twain's Theory and Li Yuchao's Biography, both of which are painted with stories of punishing evil and promoting good. Lei Gong Dian Mu stood in the clouds, his head and horse face were covered with the ground. Not only is it against the dogma to "jump up", but even if he doesn't say a word, he will suffer considerable retribution. This newspaper is not a "bitter complaint", because that place is where ghosts and gods are king, "justice" is slaughtered, and wine is invited to kneel down, all in vain, which is simply unimaginable. Between heaven and earth in China, it is difficult not only to be a man, but also to be a ghost. However, there is a better place than the dead: no "gentlemen" and no "gossip".

Gangdom, if you want to be safe, you can't be praised. Especially when people who always love pen and ink, such as China at present, are controlled by rumors and talk about "matching words with deeds". As a lesson from the past, I heard that Arriba Suifu once answered a girl's question and said, "Only those who find happiness in the facts of life can live. If they see nothing, they might as well die. " So a man named Mi Halloff wrote a letter and laughed at him, saying ... so I sincerely advise you to kill yourself by suicide, because this is logical first, and your words and deeds will not run counter to each other. "

In fact, this legal theory is murder, so he found pleasure in life. Arriba Suifu just complained a lot and didn't commit suicide. Later, Mr Halloff didn't know how this was lost, but he found something else. It is true that "these times, courage is stability; Heat is not dangerous. "

However, for the underworld, I have finally praised it and can't change it; Although it is suspected that "words and deeds are not the same", it is true that I have not received a half-text allowance from Yan or imp, and I can solve it myself. To sum up, or write down:

All the pictures of the underworld I have seen are my old books, not my own. The first picture book I received was a gift from an elder: Twenty-four Filial Pieties. Although this is only a thin book, the picture below says that there are fewer people and more ghosts, which is unique to me and makes me very happy. Everyone seems to know the story there; Even illiterate people, such as Chang, can see the story at a glance. However, I was happy, and then I was disappointed, because I asked someone to tell 24 stories before I realized that "filial piety" was so difficult, and I completely despaired of my previous wishful thinking and plans to be a filial son.

At the beginning of life, human nature is good? This is not the problem to be studied. But I still vaguely remember that I never deliberately disobeyed my parents when I was a child, but I was very willing to be filial to my parents. But I am young and ignorant, and I only explain the practice of filial piety with my personal opinions, thinking that it is nothing more than "obedience" and "obedience", and I will feed my elderly parents well when I grow up. Since I had the textbook "dutiful son", I realized that this is not the case, and it is even more difficult. There are naturally some imitations, such as "Luzi Negative Rice" and "Huang Xiang Fan Pillow". It is not difficult to conceive oranges, as long as rich people invite me to dinner. "Mr. Lu Xun is a guest and pregnant with oranges?" I knelt down and answered, "A mother's love wants to return to her mother." The rich admire him very much, so the dutiful son is very steady and easy-going. "Crying bamboo shoots" is suspicious, fearing that my sincerity may not touch the world in this way. But if you can't cry out bamboo shoots, it's just a slap in the face. If you go "lying on the ice looking for carp", your life will be in danger. The weather in my hometown is very mild. In severe winter, there is only a thin layer of ice on the water. Even if the child is lying down, it will definitely crash, the ice will break into the water, and the carp can't swim. Naturally, I have to risk my life. This is the only way to show filial piety, and there will be unexpected miracles, but I was still young and really didn't understand these.

Among them, the two things that puzzled me the most, even made me sick, were "Lao Lai entertaining relatives" and "Guo Ju burying children".

I still remember an old man lying in front of his parents and a child in his mother's hand, which gave me different feelings. They all hold "shake" in one hand. This thing is really cute. Beijing calls it a small drum, which is awkward to cover. Zhu Yue said, "Hey, there are ears on both sides of the snare drum; Shake it with its handle, and the ear will make a "pop" sound by itself. However, this thing should not be held by Lao Laizi. He should have a cane. Pretend to insult the child. I didn't watch it twice. As soon as I got to this page, I quickly turned it over.

At that time, the Twenty-four Filial Pieties no longer existed. What is left now is a book painted by Hai Xian of Oda, Japan, which tells the story of Lao Laizi: "When you are 70 years old, you don't call yourself old. You often wear colorful clothes to play with your baby. I often take water to court, cheat my servant to the ground, and make a baby cry to entertain my relatives. " It's almost the same as the old one. What distastes me is that no matter how rebellious and filial, children don't want to cheat, and they don't like rumors when they listen to stories. This is known to those who pay a little attention to children's psychology.

However, the check in an older book is not so hypocritical. Teacher Jue told the story of his dutiful son, "Lao Laizi ... always wears colorful clothes to get drinks for his relatives. He fell down in class for fear of hurting his parents' hearts, and the restrained servant cried for a baby." Compared with today, it seems to be closer to human feelings. Somehow, the latter gentleman must let him "cheat" so that he can feel comfortable. Deng Bodao abandoned his son to save his nephew. I think it was just "abandonment". A fool will certainly say that he tied his son to a tree so that he wouldn't stop until he could catch up. It's like treating "disgusting" as fun, slandering the ancients and teaching future generations bad. Lao Laizi is an example. When Mr. Daoism thought he was perfect, he died in the child's heart.

As for Guo Ju's son, he is playing "Shake Plump", and he really deserves sympathy. He was held by his mother and smiled happily; His father is digging a hole to bury him. Shi Yun said, "South Korea's family is poor, and she has a three-year-old son. Her mother eats as little as possible. The giant refers to the wife, saying that poverty cannot feed the mother, and the son is the denominator. Bury this child? " However, what Liu told the biography of the dutiful son was somewhat different: the giant family had money and he gave it to his two younger brothers; The child is just born, not yet three years old. It's over, and it's almost the same again. "Dig two feet, you can get a bucket of gold. Its cloud: Guo Jutian gave it, the official can't take it, and the people can't take it! "

I was really worried about my children at first, and I didn't feel relaxed until I dug up a bucket of gold. However, I am not only afraid of being a dutiful son myself, but also afraid of my father being a dutiful son. The family scene is getting worse and worse, and I often hear my parents worry about firewood; Grandma is old again. If my father should learn from Guo Ju, then I should be buried. It would be a blessing if I could dig a bucket of gold without going out of shape, but at that time, although I was young, I seemed to understand that there might not be such a smart thing in the world.

Looking back now, I really feel stupid. This is because people already know these old things, and no one implemented them at first. It is common to sort out Lungi's telegrams, but it is rare for a gentleman to lie naked on the ice and a general to jump off the bus and go to the negative meter. Besides, I have grown up, read some ancient books, and bought some new books, such as Magnolia in Peace, Biography of Ancient Filial Piety, Population Problem, Birth Control, The 20th Century is a Children's World, and so on. There are many reasons to resist being buried. But at that time, at that time, I was really a little scared: I dug a deep pit, but I couldn't see the gold. I buried it together, covered it with soil and stepped on it. what can I do? I think, although things may not come true, I am always afraid to hear that my parents are poor and see my white-haired grandmother. I have always felt that she is out of place with me. At least, she is a person who has some obstacles to my life. Later, this impression faded, but there was always something left until her death-which was probably unexpected for the Confucian scholars who gave their twenty-four filial piety.

works appreciation

Starting with the children's books at that time, this paper recalls the feelings of reading Twenty-four Filial Pieties in childhood and reveals the hypocrisy and cruelty of feudal filial piety. The stories of filial piety, such as "Seeking carp on the ice", "Old Lai entertaining relatives" and "Guo Ju burying children", are emphatically analyzed, accusing this feudal filial piety of ignoring children's lives, taking nausea as pleasure, "taking unkindness as a training, slandering ancient evils and teaching future generations ill". The work sharply criticized the tendency of opposing vernacular Chinese and advocating retro at that time. In fact, the story of the dutiful son in Twenty-four Filial Pieties should be very touching. It is a pity that generations of people have covered it with silk and cosmetics, smearing the touching truth into a disgusting sitcom. Lu Xun wants to tell us through this article that filial piety is justified, pedantry is stupid, blind obedience is sad and defending morality is hateful. How to advocate filial piety is still a question worthy of consideration and discussion for China people now. Those perfect gods who have been painstakingly "decorated" and worshipped and admired cannot touch people's hearts. What really touches us ordinary people will always be those ordinary heroes, those who used to be cowardly, selfish and hesitant, but finally chose brave, persistent and determined people.
