Pinyin: yàMiao zhüzhüng ng
Source: From "Mencius Appreciating Ugliness": "In the Song Dynasty, someone died before his seedlings grew, and returned to his hometown, saying that he was sick today! Help Miao Miao! " His son hurried to see it, Miao was dying. The world can't afford to help seedlings, and there are few old people. Those who give up because they feel useless don't cultivate seedlings; Help the old and help the young. Inaction is useless and harmful. "
Translation:
In the Song Dynasty, there was a man who was very eager for the seedlings to grow tall, so he went to the fields and pulled them up one by one. He was very tired, but he was still satisfied at the end of the day. He came home and said to his family, "I'm exhausted." I helped the seedlings grow taller! " When his son heard about it, he hurried to the field to see the seedlings, but they all withered.
(? Song people know a face of regret)
Few people in the world don't want their seedlings to grow faster! People who give up thinking that seedlings are useless are like lazy people who don't mow the grass. People who help it grow at their own expense, like this one, are not good, but harmful.

Source: "Huai Nan Zi Xiu Wu Xun": "The husband's terrain flows eastward, people must do things, and then the water flows to the valley; When crops are born in spring, people will make contributions, so grains will grow. Let it drift and let it live, then the merits will not stand, and Hou Ji's wisdom will not be used. "
Because the terrain is high in the west and low in the east, rivers and running water also flow into the sea from west to east, but it must be managed by someone to make the water flow eastward along the river; Seedling crops grow and develop in spring, but they must be cultivated and managed by people to have a good harvest in autumn. Let the water drift, let the seedlings grow, the merits of Gun and Yu will not be established, and Hou Ji's wisdom will be useless.
