Handan learns to walk
This story tells about the Warring States Period, Yan Guoshou There was a young man in Ling who went to Handan, the capital of the State of Zhao. He saw the beautiful walking posture of the Handan people, so he started to learn from it. As a result, not only did he not learn well, but he even forgot his original walking method, so he had to crawl back to his hometown. Later, this story evolved into an idiom - Handan learning to walk, which means that if you fail to imitate others, you will lose your own original skills.
This is a widely circulated story. For a period of time, I often went to Handan. When my colleagues saw me, they all joked, "Seeing as you can't walk anymore, have you gone to Handan again?" It seems that this is already a story known to everyone. It is a good thing that it has been widely circulated, but more importantly, we cannot ignore the enlightenment significance of this story today. Nowadays, whether it is economic development or people's lives, there is a serious tendency to copy the West, ignoring its own characteristics, and the result is nondescript.
There is a walking bridge in the center of Handan City. It is said that the young people of Yan Kingdom learned to walk from Handan people here.
The existing stone bridge was built in the Ming Dynasty and is no longer open to traffic. A public leisure and entertainment square was built around the stone bridge. The story of toddlers was carved into sculptures to educate future generations. Many inscriptions were also engraved on the square to tell the history of Handan. There is also an irregular sculpture with idioms related to Handan engraved on it, which is both educational and entertaining. It is very interesting
Ask for forgiveness
In the old city of Handan, not far from the train station In the street, there is a very short alley - Huiche Lane. This is the narrow alley where Lin Xiangru avoided Lian Po. Nowadays, many antique buildings have been newly built here, and the alleys exist in name only, and the ancient style has been lost. However, a stone tablet is still erected at the entrance of the alley to record the story of those who bear a thorn and plead guilty.
This is a story that was once selected into middle school textbooks. During the Warring States Period, Lin Xiangru, a civil servant of the State of Zhao, sent an envoy to the State of Qin to find ways to defend against the enemy, and the priceless Heshi jade was returned to Zhao in perfect condition. He also went to Mianchi to fight with the King of Qin, maintaining the dignity of the country, and was named Shangqing, ranking above General Lian Po. Lian Po, a veteran who had made many military exploits, was dissatisfied and threatened to humiliate Lin Xiangru if he saw him. Once when two people met in a carriage in a narrow alley, Lin Xiangru took the overall situation into consideration and asked his carriage to withdraw from the narrow alley to avoid Lian Po. Lian Po was deeply moved, so Lian Po went to Lin Xiangru's home with his shirtless body and a thorn stick on his back to apologize. From then on, the two became friends of life and death. The generals of Zhao State were in harmony with each other, and the country's power was greatly strengthened. This story soon evolved into an idiom, expressing the courage to admit one's mistakes and sincerely accept the other party's punishment. People are not sages, how can they have no faults? If you have the courage to admit your mistakes and accept punishment, you will be able to gain forgiveness and respect from others. Now, this is a very widely used idiom.
The Huiche Lane area is the old city of Handan. There are many old houses there and several deep residential compounds. They were the courtyards of the Handan Municipal Government during the Republic of China. Today, ordinary people live there. Although the house is old, the folk customs are still chivalrous. That day I was wandering around the old streets with my camera on my back. A middle-aged man who looked like a worker volunteered to lead me around. Under his guidance, I saw the remains of the ancient city wall of Handan, the Taxation Bureau and the Machinery Bureau of the Handan Government of the Republic of China. There is also a simple earth temple in the compound. The people on the old street are leisurely and at ease, and the students are laughing and playing after school. There are no roaring cars. Occasionally, a hawker's cry can be heard, and it feels like another world in the depths. However, the roar of the bulldozers for demolition and reconstruction has been vaguely heard, and I wonder how long this tranquility can be maintained.
