What is the original story of fox and crow?

One day, the crow got a piece of meat and was seen by the fox. The fox really wants that piece of meat from the crow's mouth. Because the crow has the meat from the branch in its mouth, the fox can't get it under the tree. He rolled his eyes and said, "Dear crow, how are you?" No one answered. "Dear crow, how is your child?" The crow looked at the fox, but still didn't answer.

The fox wagged its tail. "Your feathers are beautiful, more beautiful than other birds, and your voice is really nice. Can you sing me a song? " The crow was very proud and began to sing. But as soon as I opened my mouth, the meat fell, and the fox ran away with the meat in his mouth.

From the crow's point of view, when you encounter flattery and rhetoric from others, you should keep a clear head, think calmly, don't believe it easily, and don't act blindly, otherwise you will be cheated, trapped by others and regret it.

People often have a weakness, that is, they like to listen to compliments from others. Even if this kind of praise is exaggerated, it will be fully accepted and willing to listen. It's understandable that you like to listen to praise, but nature is not good for you.

People with ulterior motives will use it to achieve their goals, just like foxes. Therefore, people should be self-aware, have an objective understanding of themselves, and have a rational judgment on the praise of others. ?
