The ancients said: "When we are old, we are as old as others; when we are young, we are as young as others." We should not only honor our parents, but also respect other elderly people, care for young children, and create an honest custom of respecting the elderly and loving the young in the whole society. This is the responsibility of our students in the new era.

Zilu was a native of Lu in the late Spring and Autumn Period. Among the disciples of Confucius, he was famous for his political affairs. Especially famous for his bravery. But Zilu's family was very poor when he was young, and he lived on coarse grains and wild vegetables for many years.

Once, the elderly parents wanted to eat rice, but there was no rice at home. What should they do? Zilu thought that if he climbed a few mountains to borrow some rice from his relatives, wouldn't he be able to satisfy his parents' request?

So Xiao Zilu walked more than ten miles over the mountains and ridges, and carried back a small bag of rice from his relatives' house. Seeing his parents eating the delicious rice, Zilu forgot about his fatigue. Neighbors praised Zilu as a brave and filial boy.

Case 2

Bao Gong, also known as Bao Zheng (999-1062 AD), also named Xiren, was born in Hefei, Luzhou (now Hefei City, Anhui Province). His father Bao Yi was a former imperial minister. After his death, he was awarded the title of Minister of the Ministry of Punishment posthumously. When he was young, Bao Gong was known for his filial piety and his straightforward and honest nature. In the fifth year of Emperor Renzong's reign in the Song Dynasty, that is, in 1027 AD, he won the Jinshi Scholarship at the age of 28. He first served as a judge at Dali Temple, and later as the county magistrate of Jianchang (now Yongxiu, Jiangxi). Because his parents were old and unwilling to follow him to other places, Bao Gong immediately resigned from his official position and returned home to take care of his parents. His filial piety was praised by officials.

A few years later, his parents passed away one after another, and Bao Gong re-entered his official career. This was done only after the hard persuasion of the villagers.

In feudal society, if parents only have one son, the son cannot leave his parents alone and become an official in other places. This is against the provisions of feudal law. Under normal circumstances, parents will follow for the sake of their son's future. Or the son and other members of the family may advise. It was rare in the feudal era for parents to be unwilling to follow their son to serve as an official for retirement, because it meant that the son had to abide by the constraints of feudal ethics and resign from the official position to take care of himself. The history books do not specify the specific reason. It may be that his parents were ill and could not bear the bumps on the road, so Bao Gong resigned from his official position.

Regardless of the situation, Bao Gong can take the initiative to resign from his official position, which still shows that he is not the kind of person who is obsessed with officialdom. Filial piety to parents can also serve as an example for some people with low quality today. In the past, most of the stories were about Bao Gong's selflessness, and ignored Bao Gong's filial piety to his parents.

Example 3

Huang Xiang in the Eastern Han Dynasty is a historically recognized model of "filial piety". When Huang Xiang was a child, her family was in a difficult situation. She lost her mother at the age of 10 and her father was sick. On sultry summer days, he used a fan to swat mosquitoes before going to bed, and cooled the bed and pillow where his father slept, so that his father could fall asleep earlier; on cold winter nights, he got into the cold bed and warmed it with his body. Then he let his father sleep. In winter, he couldn't afford a cotton-padded jacket. In order to prevent his father from being sad, he never cried out and showed joy and joy. He worked hard to create a happy atmosphere at home so that his father could feel relieved and recover as soon as possible. .
