• In the Zhou dynasty lived a man named Tan whose nature was very filial. His parents were old, and both suffered from a malady of the eyes (for the cure of which) they desired to drink deer's milk. Tan therefore (disguised himself in) a deerskin and went to a herd of deer deep in the mountains to obtain deer's milk to give his parents. Some hunters saw him and were about to shoot him, when Tan revealed himself to them to avoid (being shot).

• Zeng Shen of the Zhou dynasty was called Zi-yu. He was extremely filial to his mother. Shen once went to the mountains to gather firewood. A guest came to the house, and his mother had no arrangements (to entertain him). She longed for Shen , who did not return. Then she bit her finger, drawing blood. Suddenly Shen felt a pain in his heart. He shouldered the firewood and returned home. Kneeling, he asked his mother what the matter was. His mother said: "A guest came unexpectedly. I bit my finger to alert you. "

• Emperor Shun of the Yu dynasty was the son of Gushou (literally means Blind Old-Man). His nature was most filial. But his father was obstinate and his mother was boorish. His younger brother Xiang was proud and overbearing. Shun ploughed on Mount Li , where the elephants ploughed for him and the birds weeded for him, for his feelings of filial piety were so great. Emperor Yao heard of this; he sent nine of his sons to wait on him and two of his daughters to be his wives and later abdicated the throne in his favor.

Summary • Take your responsibility to respect your parents and grand parnents, take care of them if they need, and of course to love them. • Everyone can be parent , and of course everyone will be becoming old • Today you show respect and love to your parents, tomorrow your children will do so to you. That ‘s the life we need.
