    [1] "Song of Water in the River" by Xiao Yan. Poetry

    The water in the river flows eastward,

    The daughter of Luoyang is named Mochou.

    Mo Chou Thirteen Can Weave Qi,

    Fourteen picking mulberry on the south street.

    Fifteen married to Lu's wife,

    The sixteenth child's character is Ahou.

    ? Lu Jialan's room is Gui Weiliang,

    There are tulip styrax in it.

    Twelve rows of gold hairpins on the head,

    There are five articles on the silk foot with one step.

    The coral hanging mirror is rotten and shining,

    A flat-headed slave lifts a shoe box.

    What is the hope of wealth and honor in life,

    I hate not to marry the king of my host.

    Hearing that Wansheng's junior sister was only twelve years old, Ji Xu immediately recited a poem from "Song of Water in the River" by Xiao Yan, Emperor Wu of Liang Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty: "Lu Jialan's house is a beam with laurel, and there are tulips and Suhexiang in it. There are twelve gold hairpins on his head.  Okay, five articles on the silk with one step."

    Wan Sheng thought that Ji Xu was telling him something again, so he asked the mystery.

    Zhu Aifang told him: "Mr. Ji said that the junior sister is in the 'year of the golden hairpin', and it is still early."

    Wan Sheng asked: "What is the 'Year of the Gold Hairpin'?"

    Zhu Aifang explained: "We Han girls can wear gold and silver at the age of twelve."

    Wan Sheng asked again: "Wear gold and silver?"

    Zhu Aifang said with a smile, "That is to say, a twelve-year-old girl should learn how to dress herself up, so that she can find a good husband!"

    "That is to say, you can marry someone?" Wan Sheng cheered up.

    Ji Xu said: "Marry? It's still early! It's just that you can make a marriage for a girl."

    "Oh~" Wan Sheng said, "Looks like it's the right time for me to go to the teacher's house to propose marriage today!"

    Ji Xu asked: "Why, did you go to your husband's house to propose marriage today?"

    Wan Sheng said, "Yes!"

    Ji Xu complained: "You, you are so confused, how can you go to someone's house to propose marriage today!"

    Wan Sheng asked: "What's wrong?"

    Zhu Aifang said: "Today is July and a half, and it is the day when we Han people worship our ancestors."

    "Besides, how can you propose marriage for yourself?" Ji Xu said, "Why are you so thick-skinned!"

    Wan Sheng said: "Didn't you say that chasing girls should be thick-skinned?"

    "Are you thicker?" Ji Xu said angrily, "You are so shameless!"

    "No wonder I was kicked out by the teacher" Wansheng said shyly, "Why, is it not easy to propose marriage during the Ghost Festival?"

    Ji Xu said: "It's not just a marriage proposal, you shouldn't have stepped into the door of your husband's house!"

    Wan Sheng said: "Is it so serious!?"

    Ji Xu told him, "Hungry Ghost Festival is also called 'Ghost Festival', and it is a day when ghosts come out to visit the house. What kind of ghost are you just randomly wandering into people's houses?"

    Zhu Aifang answered, "The pervert."

    Hearing this, Wan Sheng regretted a little, "You Han people, you have a lot of things to do. Obviously it is the "July and a half" Ghost Festival, and it should be on July 15th. Why do you have to celebrate July 14th?"

    Ji Xu said: "Because fourteen is double 'seven'!"

    Wan Sheng asked: "Why do you Han people like 'seven'?"

    Ji Xu told him: "In our Han culture, 'seven' is a number with infinite changes and connotations. Because there are seven stars in the sky, people have seven orifices; music has seven scales, and poetry has seven uniques  "

    Wan Sheng said: "You guys are pedantic, what's the point of artificially making it up?"

    "It's man-made, it's the way of heaven!" Ji Xu said, "I said, 'Tao begets one, one begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things.' The 'three' here is not an exact number, but a fictitious finger.  Refers to everything and everything, and the development of things is divided into six different stages[1]. According to common sense, completing these six stages means the successful end of things. However, the occurrence and development of things, every  When the number "seven" is encountered, it is easy to change. This is the principle of 'every seven must change'."

    Wan Sheng was still puzzled: "What's the point?"

    "What's the point!?" Ji Xu smiled and said, "If you go to your husband's house to propose marriage today, you will definitely fail!"

    Wan Sheng wondered, "How do you know?"

    "How do you know that every seventh day will change!" Ji Xu said, "Today, July 14th, there are three "sevens" piled up together. What do you think you can do smoothly?"

    Wan Sheng repeated: "Every seven will change, so amazing!"

    Ji Xu said: "You??Extreme, but don't let up at this time, you must maintain the original intention of "don't use potential dragons" in the first stage in order to last.

    The sixth stage: Going up to the ninth, Kanglong has regrets

    If in the Ninth Five-Year Stage one develops arrogance and forgets the original intention, forgets the internal and external worries, it will inevitably lead to remorse, and enters the sixth stage, and the dragon will have regrets.

    Nothing can be filled for a long time, so it is the reason why we often see many companies that go from prosperity to decline.

    Qian Gua tells us to learn to "submerge" to increase our strength at the beginning, and to show it when the time is right.  Do not be proud.

    (4) The best example of seeing things as six stages is Confucius

    The Master said: "When I am ten, I am determined to learn. At thirty, I stand up. At forty, I am not confused. At fifty, I know the destiny. At sixty, my ears are compliant. At seventy, I do what my heart wants and do not exceed the rules."

    The first stage: five out of ten are determined to learn.  At the age of fifteen, he began to accumulate knowledge power for life development;

    The second stage: stand at thirty.  At the age of thirty, I found the fundamental principle of standing up;

    The third stage: forty without confusion.  At the age of forty, the mind gradually becomes firm;

    The fourth stage: know the destiny at the age of fifty.  At the age of fifty, I know how my life will be spent;

    The fifth stage: Sixty and ears are smooth.  At the age of sixty, you can listen to anything;

    The sixth stage: At seventy, follow one's heart's desire without exceeding the rules.  At the age of seventy, I finally learned to develop in accordance with the laws of nature, not to violate the laws of heaven and earth, and not to make major mistakes.  How old is just to point out an approximate age range, don't need to be too serious.

    Finally, Tian Xingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement.  When a gentleman sees how vigorous and active the sky is, he is inspired and realizes that he must follow the principles of nature, so that he will continue to strive for self-improvement.  Knowing the law of development of things can enable us to better find the direction in the face of things.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
