His wife was joking, but why did Ceng Zi take it seriously and kill pigs for his son?

Ceng Zi's wife went to the market, and her son walked behind her crying. His mother said, "If you return it, you will kill me for you.

When his wife came to the market at the right time, Ceng Zi wanted to arrest him and kill him. His wife said, "I'm playing with the baby."

Ceng Zi said, "Babies are not playing with their ears. Babies must be knowledgeable, treat their parents and scholars, and listen to their parents. Today's son deceives him, and his godson deceives him. "The mother cheated her son, but the son didn't trust her. This is not the reason why he became a teacher. "

So Ceng Zi cooked the pig for the baby.

Ceng Zi's wife walked into the street, followed by her son, crying to leave. Ceng Zi's wife had no choice but to say to her son, "Go home. I came back from the street to kill pigs for you. "

As soon as Ceng Zi's wife came back from the street, Ceng Zi was ready to catch the pig and kill it. His wife dissuaded him and said, "I just told the children to kill pigs, but it was just a joke."

Ceng Zi said, "Children can't play with him. Children are not sensible, and all knowledge needs to be learned from their parents and taught by them. Now if you cajole him, you are teaching your child to cajole others. If the mother coaxes the child, the child will not believe her. This is not the way to educate children to be gentlemen. "

Say that finish, Ceng Zi killed the pig for the children to eat.

Appreciation: In order not to lose trust in children, Zeng Zi really killed pigs and cooked them for children. The purpose is to educate and influence future generations with an honest and trustworthy attitude towards life. But this is not necessarily the original intention of Han Fei's fable. Han Feizi's original intention is only to publicize his legal thought of attaching importance to law and keeping promise, and to ask the rulers to make strict laws, and then there are laws to follow and the laws must be strictly enforced.
