Playing the piano to a cow

During the Warring States Period, there was a musician named Gong Mingyi, who could compose and play. He played the lyre very well and played beautiful music. Many people liked to listen to him play the piano, and people respected him very much.

One spring, he went for a walk in the suburbs with his harp. The warm spring breeze blew the fragrance of grass in front of him, which made him feel very comfortable. He looked around and found a big bull eating grass not far away. He was in high spirits and had a whim to play a song for this bull, so he plucked the strings and played an elegant "Song of the Clear Horn" for this bull.

Although the music played by Gong Mingyi is very pleasing to the ear, the grazing cow ignored the elegant tune and continued to eat grass with his head down. Because the bull can hear the sound of the strings, but it can't understand the wonderful artistic conception in the song.

Gong Mingyi was very helpless when she saw that the wonderful piano sound could not impress this cow who didn't know music. After a while, he came up with another idea. Gong Mingyi stroked the strings, popping up strange and messy sounds, some like buzzing mosquitoes and flies, and some like the cry of a lost calf. At this time, the big bull seemed to suddenly understand something, wagging its tail, pricking up its ears and listening.

Enlightenment from casting pearls before swine: It is not advisable to talk without looking at the object, nor is it advisable to reason with fools.

Pulling out seedlings encourages growth

There was a man in the Song Dynasty who lived by growing crops and had to work in the fields every day. When the sun was in the sky, there was no shelter. The sweat on Song Guo's head was as big as a bean, and his clothes were soaked with sweat, but he had to bow down in the scorching sun to transplant rice seedlings. When it rained heavily, there was no place to escape, so the Song people had to plow the fields in the rain, and the rain made him lift his head and sweat.

It's like this day after day. Whenever Chinese people come home after a hard day's work, they are too tired to move or even say a word. Song people think it's really hard. What bothers him even more is that he goes to the fields with a hoe every day to work hard, but the incomprehensible crops don't seem to grow at all, which is really worrying.

On this day, the people of the Song Dynasty plowed the land for a long time and sat on the ridge to rest. He looked at the farmland as big as if it had no edge, and he couldn't help but feel anxious again. He said to himself, "crops, do you know how hard I work every day?" Why don't you understand me at all? Why don't you grow taller? Fast grow taller, fast grow taller ..... "He chanted, while conveniently to pull out a thread of clothing, thread didn't pull off, but came out a lot. Song Guoren looked at the thread, lost in thought, and suddenly an idea popped up in his mind: "Yes, I didn't think of it before, just do it!" The people of the Song Dynasty suddenly got excited, jumped up and began to get busy.

In the evening, the Song people came back sweating profusely. He said excitedly when he entered the door, "I'm exhausted today!" I pulled out some of every crop, and they grew so much at once. What did he say and gesticulate? You ..... "Song Guoren's wife was surprised. She even forgot to finish her words, so she quickly raised a lantern and ran to the field with a shallow foot. But it was already late, and all the crops had died. Reading experience The growth of all things in nature has its own objective laws, and people can't change these laws forcibly. Only by following the laws can they succeed. Stupid Song people don't understand this truth. They are eager for quick success and quick success. They just want to make crops grow and grow as fast as they want, and the result is the opposite.
