Children Cao, listen to the teachings: study hard and be filial to your parents; Learn to be modest, filial and humble, and follow etiquette; Diet and games; Not lying, not greedy; No feelings, no quarrels; Don't complain, be independent. Being a servant is determined to win; Being able to accommodate people is a great tool. Be a man, in your heart; Kind-hearted, a good man; Qiaoqiao is evil and vicious. Like a tree fruit, the heart is the pedicle; When the pedicle is broken, the fruit falls off. I teach you everything. Listen carefully and don't give up easily.
