2. 孝感动天的文言文Yu Shun, the son of goze, was the son of a vulnerable man. He was a man of filial piety. The first time I saw him was when he was a young man, and he was a young woman. When Shun ploughed in the Calendar Mountain, an elephant plowed for him and a bird worked for him. His filial piety was so great that Emperor Yao heard about it and was rewarded with nine years of service. When Emperor Yao heard of this, he gave him nine men and two women as his wives, and then let him have the whole world.
Shun, the legendary ancient emperor, one of the five emperors, surnamed Yao, first name Chonghua, the name of Yu Clan, historically known as Yu Shun. According to legend, his father, goze, and his stepmother and half-brother, xiang, tried to kill him many times: when he was asked to repair the roof of a barn, he set fire to it from underneath, and escaped by jumping down with two hats in his hands; and when he was asked to dig a well, goze and xiang filled in the well with earth, and escaped by digging a tunnel. Afterward, Shun did not feel any resentment, but remained obedient to his father and compassionate to his brother. His filial piety touched the Heavenly Emperor. When Shun plowed in the Calendar Mountain, elephants ploughed the ground for him and birds hoeed the grass for him. Emperor Yao heard that Shun was very filial and had the ability to handle government affairs, and married his two daughters, E Huang and N Ying, to him; after years of observation and testing, he chose Shun to be his successor. When Shun ascended to the throne of heaven, he visited his father and remained respectful, and made Xiang a vassal.
A poem by a later generation says: "The elephants plowing in spring, the birds cultivating the grass in droves. The emperor's father was a great man, and his father was a great man, and his father was a great man, and his father was a great man.

6. Zhu Tai's filial piety to the tigerZhu Tai's family was very poor, but he was very filial to his mother. On weekdays, he went to the mountains to cut firewood, pick to the market to sell, the money always think to buy some good food for his mother to bring back, but he ate chaff and food. Of course, his wife was a little tired of talking. Zhu Tai often advised his wife, "My father died very early, my mother is very difficult to raise me, not easy! We should honor his old man."
One day, Zhu Tai was chopping wood in the mountains, when a tiger pounced on him. Zhu Tai did not escape a few steps by the tiger pounced on, a front foot on the chest of Zhu Tai, opened a bloody mouth - down to bite one of his arms. Zhu Tai was sobered up by the pain, and remembered his mother, so he resisted the pain and shouted, "Tiger, you are a fierce animal, you can eat whatever you want, and it doesn't matter if you eat me. But my mother has no one to feed her."
The tiger listened to him, and let go of Zhu Tai, turned around and ran away, without even looking back. Zhu Tai got out of danger and crawled back home, telling everyone that the tiger ate him, and his mother hugged her son and wept.
After hearing the story of how Zhu Tai's filial piety touched the tiger, the neighbors scrambled to give him gold, silver, and silk, which he returned one by one. Zhu Tai said, "I still have a good arm, and I can still support my mother by fetching firewood." Everyone marveled at this.
From then on, the neighbors called Zhu Tai "Zhu Hu Remnant", which means that Zhu Tai is the child left in the tiger's mouth. When they went back, they told their children: "Filial piety is about doing one's best, not just feeding one's body. The crows know how to feed, and the sheep know how to kneel and feed. Even the tiger respects those who have filial piety; it would rather starve than eat the remnants of Zhu Hu."
