Diligence redeems stupidity. Zheng Banqiao is one of the "Eight Monsters of Yangzhou" in the Qing Dynasty. He was not gifted with intelligence and had a bad memory. But diligence can make up for clumsiness, so he worked the word "diligence". For example: a book, others just need to read.

Once or twice, you can remember its content, but Zheng Banqiao can't.

So, he read it several times, and he would read some classic books hundreds of times, until he understood it thoroughly and did not give up. He was not only diligent in reading, but also diligent in thinking and practicing.

He often looks at the sky, motionless in a daze, and when others talk to him, he often answers the wrong question, or the preface is wrong, in fact, he is concentrating on the problem. Thanks to his hard work, he finally became a famous painter, calligrapher and poet in the Qing Dynasty.

1. The cantilever beam is piercing

During the Warring States Period, there was a person named Su Qin Minqin in Luoyang City, who worked hard to study in order to become a big official in the future. Sometimes I get so tired of reading that I inevitably doze off. So, he came up with a solution:

Holding an awl, when I fell asleep, I stabbed my thigh, and it hurt, and I couldn't sleep, so I could continue reading.

Sometimes he was so tired that in order to prevent him from dozing off, he used a rope, tied one end to a beam, and the other end of his hair was knotted, so that his head and neck hung upright. In this way, if you doze off, your hair will be pulled and you will wake up immediately. Therefore, later generations used "hanging beam thorn strands" to describe the spirit of diligent study and good reading.

2, Liu Gongquan became famous for his arrogance

From an early age, Liu Gongquan showed a talent for calligraphy, and his handwriting was famous far and wide. He was also a little proud of it. However, one day he met an old man who had no hands, and found that the old man's writing with his feet was better than his handwriting.

Since then, he has always kept "guarding against arrogance" in his heart, practiced calligraphy diligently, studied modestly, and finally became a generation of calligraphers.

3. Qu Yuan studied hard in the cave

Qu Yuan ignored the opposition of his elders when he was a child, regardless of the wind and rain, the weather was cold and freezing, and he hid in a cave to secretly read the "Book of Songs". After three full years, he familiarized himself with the 305 chapters of the Book of Songs, absorbed rich nutrients from these folk songs and ballads, and finally became a great poet.

4. Liu Xian's Buddha Hall is borrowed

Late at night, there was a sudden sound of reading in the Buddha hall. The little monks were frightened, thinking that there were ghosts inside, and Yu Tan immediately reported it to the old monk. So, the old monk led the little monk to catch ghosts, but he didn't expect that the "ghost" turned out to be a poor child named Liu Xian, who was borrowing a Buddhist lamp to study.

After studying hard, Liu Xian finally became a great writer.
