It is said that once Xu Beihong commented on his works at an art exhibition, an old farmer from the countryside came up to him and said, "Sir, the duck you drew is not right. You drew a duck. How can the mother duck's tail be so long? "
It turns out that Xu Beihong's "Writing Dongpo Chunjiang Plumbing Poetry" shows that the tail feathers of ducks are long and curly like rings. The old farmer told Xu Beihong that the drake had bright feathers and a curly tail. The mother duck's hair is hemp brown and her tail is very short. Xu Beihong accepted the criticism and expressed deep gratitude to the old farmer.
2. Mei Lanfang is an apprentice.
Mei Lanfang, a master of Peking Opera, not only has profound attainments in Peking Opera art, but also is a master of Danqing. He worships the famous painter Qi Baishi and asks for advice modestly. He always holds a disciple ceremony and often grinds ink and rice paper for the old man Baishi. He is not proud of being a famous actor.
Mei Lanfang not only worships painters as teachers, but also ordinary people as teachers. He once performed the Peking Opera "Killing Life", and among the cheers, he heard an elderly audience say "bad".
Mei Lanfang took the old man home by car before she could unload the goods and change clothes. He respectfully said to the old man, "The person who says I'm not good is my teacher. If the teacher says I'm not good, I must have a good opinion. Please give me advice. Students are determined to make up for it. "
The old man pointed out: "Yan Xijiao's catwalk upstairs and downstairs, according to the regulations of the pear garden, should be seven ups and eight downs. Why do doctors go up and down? " Mei Lanfang suddenly realized and praised again and again. In the future, Mei Lanfang often asked the old gentleman to watch him act, asked him to correct me and called him "teacher".
3. Dr Bian Que.
Once, the monarch of Qi wanted Bian Que to be "the best doctor in the world". However, Bian Que refused, saying that he was not the best in the world, and his two brothers were better than him in medicine. The king was a little puzzled when he heard this, so he asked, Since your two brothers are above you in medical skills, why are they unknown?
Bian Que replied, "My second brother Bian Yan can treat serious diseases from childhood, and he can diagnose and treat those major diseases in time when only minor symptoms appear. Therefore, he is only famous in his hometown village, and everyone in the village knows that he can go to the second brother for minor problems. Brother Bian Hong's medical skill is superb, and he can nip in the bud. He can see at a glance what's wrong with this person, and then treat him in time before he gets sick.
Therefore, only the family knows that Big Brother's medical skill is brilliant, and even the villagers don't know his level. Only I, Bian Que, can neither cure a serious illness with minor ailments nor nip in the bud. By the time I was rejuvenated, the patient was terminally ill, so my two unknown brothers were doctors, and I was just a world famous doctor.

4. Chengmen Sydney
Shi Yang in Song Dynasty liked studying very much. At noon on a snowy day, he and his classmates went to the philosopher Cheng Yi for advice. Teacher Cheng is taking a nap, and they are waiting outside the door. The snow is getting heavier and heavier. In order not to disturb the teacher, I still wait patiently outside the door. The teacher woke up. Found Shi Yang two people standing in the snow, busy call them into the house, Shi Yang hurriedly salute to the teacher, ask. Confucius was a famous thinker and educator in ancient China. He is knowledgeable, but never complacent.
When he was traveling around the world, on his way to the State of Jin, he met a seven-year-old child who blocked the way and asked him to answer two questions before giving way. One is: Why do geese bark loudly? Confucius said, "Goose has a long neck, so it cries loudly." The child said, "The frog's neck is very short. Why does it cry so loudly? " Confucius was speechless. He was embarrassed to say to the students, "I am not as good as him." He can be my teacher! "
5. Learn to bow your head
Franklin was called the father of America. When talking about the road to success, he said that it all started with a visit. When he was young, an old-timer invited him to meet him in a low hut. Franklin is here. He puffed out his chest and walked with great strides. As soon as he entered the door, his forehead slammed into the door frame and suddenly swelled up, which made him laugh and cry.
Seeing him like this, the old-timer smiled and said, "Does it hurt? Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? This is your biggest gain today. If a person wants to gain insight into the world and cultivate human feelings, he must always remember to bow his head. " Franklin thought this visit was an enlightenment. He firmly remembered the teachings of his predecessors and made modesty his life rule.
