The story of the calligrapher?

Wang Xizhi began to practice calligraphy with the calligrapher Mrs. Wei when he was seven years old. Within three years, he showed his talent. Somewhat arrogant.

One day, Wang Xizhi went to the market to play. What he saw was that the words "Duck Dumpling Shop" on the signboard were written very rigidly and without any skills. He went to find the owner of the shop, who was a The white-haired old lady was making dumplings. When she saw him wrapping a dumpling, she threw it over the low wall without looking at it. The dumpling just fell into the pot. Wang Xizhi was secretly surprised and couldn't help but ask: " "Old man, how deep is your skill and how long will it take to master it?" The old lady said: "It takes fifty years to practice deeply."

This sentence touched Wang Xizhi. Then she asked: "You are so skilled at craftsmanship, why don't you find a famous person to write the signboard?" The old lady said unhappily: "It's hard to invite famous people, let's talk about Wang Xizhi, who just showed up. He is praised by people at a young age. He has wings. To be honest, his writing skills are not as good as my dumpling writing skills. Don’t imitate him.”

Wang Xizhi’s face turned red all of a sudden, and he told the old lady. I recognized my own identity and admitted my shortcomings. To make up for it, he immediately wrote a sign for "Ya'er Dumpling Shop" and at the same time wrote a couplet: "It's hard to pass the test, but the taste will last forever."

Wang Xizhi only learned calligraphy for three years, and he was so proud. He learned a lesson from the words and deeds of the old lady in the dumpling restaurant, so I understood that in the palace of knowledge, complacency will only lead to failure. People stop moving forward, so whether it is doing things or being a person, it is better to be more modest. Moreover, Wang Xizhi is also a child who knows his mistakes and must correct them. After the old lady pointed out his shortcomings, he corrected them immediately, so we must regard him as ours. example!
