1, "1000 yuan for a meal"
When Han Xin was a child, his family was poor and his parents died. Although he studies hard and practices martial arts hard, he knows nothing about making money. As a last resort, he had to eat "free meals" at other people's homes. Because of this, they are often given the cold shoulder by others. Han Xin swallow not to descend this tone, went to the Huaihe River to fish, fish for food, and often had a hearty meal. On the Huaihe River, there is an old woman who washes yarn wadding for others, and she is called "Piaoniang". Seeing that Han Xin was starving, she gave him half of her food. Every day, without interruption, Han Xin vowed to repay her kindness. After Han Xin was named "Huaiyin Hou", she never forgot her wandering mother's kindness of sharing food, sent people to look around and finally gave her 1000 yuan. This is the origin of the idiom "a meal is worth 1000 yuan".
2. "Looking at plums to quench thirst"
One summer, Cao Cao led his army to crusade against Zhang Xiu. The weather is unusually hot, the sun is like fire, and there is not a cloud in the sky. The troops walked on the winding mountain road, and the dense trees and rocks scorched by the sun on both sides made people breathless. By noon, the soldiers' clothes were soaked, the marching speed slowed down, and several weak soldiers fainted on the side of the road.
Cao Cao was worried that the marching speed was getting slower and slower, and that the fighter plane would be delayed. However, at present, tens of thousands of people can't even drink water. How can we speed up? He immediately called the guide and asked him quietly, "Is there a water source near here?" The guide shook his head and said, "The spring is on the other side of the valley. It's a long detour. " Cao Cao thought for a moment and said, "No, it's too late." He looked at the forest in front of him, thought for a moment, and said to the guide, "Don't say anything, I'll think of something." He knew that even if he ordered the troops to speed up at the moment, it would not help. A brainwave, the solution came. He grabbed the horse by the stomach and quickly rushed to the front of the team. Pointing at the front with a whip, he said, "Soldiers, I know there is a large area of Merlin in front, where the plums are big and delicious. Let's hurry around this hill and get to Meilin! " Hearing this, the soldiers seemed to eat it in their mouths, and their spirits were greatly boosted, and their pace could not help but accelerate a lot.
