Where does the poor inheritance wind come from?

We often use "poverty makes us change" to describe parents' kindness to their children and their painstaking return to their children. However, I'm afraid few people know who said this sentence. Let's talk about the origin of poor inheritance.

The short answer is that "poverty inherits the wind" comes from Cixi. Cixi's mother wrote such a poem on her seventieth birthday: the love of parents is the truest in the world, and tears and blood are dissolved in children. Exhausted heart will eventually become a child, and the poor will bear the wind! The last sentence, "If you are poor, you will think about change" has become a classic that has been passed down to this day.

The specific content of "poverty spreads the wind" comes from the last sentence of the birthday poem written by Empress Dowager Cixi for her mother in the late Qing Dynasty. The full text is: inherit the wind is the truest, tears and blood dissolve in children. Exhausted, and finally a child. The poor inherit the wind.

The background of this poem is the 60th birthday of Cixi's mother. Cixi has no time to attend her mother's birthday. In addition to giving gifts to her mother, she also wrote a calligraphy, which is the poem above.

This poem is simple and easy to understand, without flowery rhetoric. It is simply a poem praising parents' feelings, and the phrase "poverty spreads the wind" has become a classic that has been passed down to this day. Although Cixi was unsuccessful as a politician, she brought disaster to this country as a ruler. However, this poem has spread so widely that Cixi probably didn't think of it.
