The daily life of orphans is not respected and depends on others —— Qi Ge in The Book of Songs

Since entering civilized society, human beings have never been truly equal. The strong always bully the weak, and the rich always oppress the poor. If you want not to be bullied or squeezed, the world will be more friendly to us only if you try to cross the class and make yourself stronger. The ancients understood this truth a long time ago, so there is a proverb that "laugh at the poor and don't laugh at prostitutes", and there is even a saying that "if you are poor, you will think about change, agriculture is not as good as work, work is not as good as business, and embroidery is not as good as relying on the city gate". Even so, there are still so many people of insight who advance wave after wave to find ways to make the world more equal and warm, but their efforts often end in failure.

From this perspective, human society has not changed for thousands of years. Society is the condensation of human nature. Unless human nature changes, society will not change.

Qiu Ge, a poem from The Book of Songs, tells how an orphan was bullied and lived a life without dignity. It's sad to read.

He (mián) is in the middle of the river (h incarnation).

"Luan Luan" means "continuous", long and continuous.

Kudzu vine is kudzu vine,

"Hu", the water, the shore.

Look at the endless kudzu vine, although it grows so long, it has been by the river and never left.

Why write kudzu vine? Because this is an orphan's song, orphans are far away from their homeland and miss their hometown. When they saw kudzu vine, they thought of their miserable life, so they felt it.

Yu Yan brothers call others dad.

Speaking of kudzu vine, this sentence began to talk about myself. The orphan was far away from his parents and brothers and came to a strange place. He also called a father who had nothing to do with himself. Do you think this orphan is sad? But why do orphans stay away from their parents and brothers and even be forced to be sons to strangers? There is nothing in the poem, but we can guess.

Now there is such a thing. There are often such examples in the news. The police cracked a criminal gang. These people specialize in abducting and kidnapping children and making black-hearted money. They are the traffickers that our people hate most. Maybe the orphan was abducted by traffickers. Probably he had a good memory when he was kidnapped. He still remembers that his hometown is beside a big river. This is just a guess. Another guess is that ancient science and technology were underdeveloped, and farmers relied on God to grow food. If there is drought or flood, or locusts come and there is not enough food, parents have no choice but to sell their children to survive. This is the most tragic thing in the world. What parents in the world are willing to sell their children cruelly, but they can't starve to death. If they sell them, they may still survive.

We don't know the real reason, but what we do know is that the situation of orphans is the most tragic.

My father is sad, and he will be our pleasure.

Look at the life of orphans. Even if the orphan called the man's father, the man didn't even look at him.

What an insult! Being ignored, as if this person does not exist, completely negates his value as a human being, which is the greatest humiliation in the world.

As we can imagine, the orphan must have something to call his father. Either he was hungry and wanted to eat, or he was forced, otherwise the orphan would refuse to call him, but after calling him, the man ignored him and didn't even look at him. What does it taste like?

I believe that as long as we put ourselves in the orphans' shoes, we can understand their feelings at this moment.

The above six sentences are the first chapter of this poem, and the following six sentences are the second chapter.

He is in the river. My mother was very sad that my brother and sister were separated. A mother who is sad can also help.

The orphan remembered his hometown again, the village near the river, where there were his parents, brothers and his loved ones, but he was far away from them and never saw them again. In this stranger's home, the orphan was forced to call a strange woman mother. Is that his mother? No, but you must scream, or you will be beaten and starved. Even if mom was called, those people wouldn't give him anything, just a little bit.

It's in the middle of the river (chún). The brother and sister were separated, and my brother was very sad. His brother is sad and sad, and he only treats deaf people.

"Osmium", riverside, river bank.

Brother Kun

There is another child in this family who looks a little older than an orphan. We should call him brother. But what about calling my brother? This brother ignores orphans and has no kindness to be a brother.

This poem completely describes the situation that orphans are bullied and insulted when they are far away from home and dependent on others. It comes from life, but it goes beyond life. Every sentence is bloody. This is a wonderful realistic poem. It has always been the mission of literature to care about people's sufferings and their living conditions. Since ancient times, great poets of all ages have created countless classic works with this belief, and this belief should be in.

The whole poem is as follows:

He is in the river.

Brother and sister have separated, and the heart of the father is desolate.

My father is sad, and he will be our pleasure.

He is in the river.

My mother was very sad that my brother and sister were separated.

A mother who is sad can also help.

It's in the middle of the river.

The brother and sister were separated, and my brother was very sad.

His brother is sad and sad, and he only treats deaf people.
