One day, a king was walking alone in the garden. To his great surprise, all the flowers and trees in the garden withered and the garden was desolate. Later, the king learned that the oak tree was not as tall and straight as the pine tree, so it died of suicide and world-weariness; Pine trees also died, because they could not bear as many fruits as grapes; Grape lamented that he crawled on the shelf all day, unable to stand upright and produce beautiful and lovely flowers like peach trees, so he died; Morning glory is also sick, because it sighs that it is not as fragrant as lilacs. The rest of the plants are dejected and listless, only one grass grows luxuriantly.
The king asked, "the grass of peace of mind, all other plants have withered." Why are you so brave and optimistic and not depressed? "
The grass replied, "King, I am not discouraged at all, because I know that if you want an oak tree, a pine tree, a bunch of grapes, a peach tree, a morning glory, a lilac and so on. You will ask the gardener to plant them. I know what you want from me is a little peace of mind. "
This is a touching fable, but we might as well continue this fable now. Suppose the king was deeply moved by the new Cao An's words and said, "You used to be inconspicuous in the garden, so now I want to make you conspicuous. No, I won't let the gardener plant other flowers and trees now, but I will only let them wait on you, give you the most adequate water and nutrients, and take care of you. "
As a result, only Xin 'an grass grows luxuriantly in the garden, and the scenery in the garden is getting monotonous day by day, but this is nothing. Strangely, despite this, Xin 'an grass began to become uneasy, because they had higher and higher expectations of themselves, and they demanded better care and nutrition. They think that as long as they are carefully cultivated, they will eventually have tall and straight pine trees, rich grapes, beautiful peach blossoms and the fragrance of lilacs.
Worst of all, they even began to be more and more intolerant of other flowers and plants. Occasionally, the wind or birds bring the seeds of other flowers and plants, so they slander and run on these different flowers and plants, saying that they are not beautiful and begging the gardener to remove them. Even within themselves, they are jealous and mutually exclusive.
So, when the king came to the garden again later, he saw a wasteland.
The second children's bedtime fairy tale: The Beautiful Goose King
A long time ago, in the unheated pool by the Anapodado River, a large group of white geese lived, forming a goose kingdom. The king of the Goose Kingdom is called Toulai. He is tall and strong, with flawless feathers and beautiful appearance. He is called the "Beautiful Goose King".
King Goose has two sons. The first one is called Mann, and the second one is called Mann. The eldest son is born stubborn and unruly, likes to make trouble and bully others, and often hurts other geese in the goose country. Every time it does evil, the goose complains to the beautiful goose king, "The big prince has come to peck us again!" " "
With more and more complaints, the goose king was very worried and thought, "I am old, so it is only a matter of time before I become king." According to the rules, it should be passed on to the big prince, but it's really useless. When I was alive, it bullied its goose. Once it becomes king, I don't know how many people will be killed! The throne must not be full. "
The goose king thought hard and came up with an idea. He called his two sons to him and said to them:
"You have grown up, you should travel around the world and see the world. All rivers and lakes with geese should be visited to learn about the situation there. I will pass the throne to whoever comes back first. "
Hearing this, the two goose princes bid farewell to their father, each took some goose guards, went out to inspect and visit all the lakes and rivers, and gained a lot of knowledge.
On this day, the eldest prince flew to Ronnies with his guards. Shiva, the king of Ronnies, whose name is Vander, is wise and kind. She is very good at governing the country, so the country is prosperous and the people are happy. Not far from the capital of Ronnies, there is a beautiful pond called Miaohuachi. The water in the pond is crystal clear, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, and the fragrance floats on the surface of the pond. The pond is surrounded by green trees and colorful flowers.
On the surface of the pond, many kinds of birds are already playing.
"ah! What a beautiful pond! " The eldest prince was filled with admiration in the air: "Why don't we go down and play beautifully?" The guards came to him with it, playing as they pleased, and they were so happy that they forgot everything in the world.
At this time, the second prince also flew over the wonderful flower pond with a full face of guards. A guard said, "look, prince, how beautiful this pond is!" Let's go down and play. "
The prince said, "No, my father asked us to patrol. How do we play? Let's go back to the king's life first, and then make sense. "
The handsome prince led the guards back to the unheated pool by the Anaboda River to meet his father.
King Goose was overjoyed to see his second son come back first. After asking about the situation, it confessed everything the king should know, and then passed the throne to his second son. Soon, the goose king died suddenly.
He took care of his father's funeral with a sad face and officially became the new goose king. Because it looks like its father, and it is braver and more beautiful, it is also called "the beautiful goose king".
The Goose King Mesin worked day and night, and the Goose Country was more prosperous than when his father came to power.
A few months later, a guard patrolling with the beautiful goose king mentioned the wonderful flower pond again. The goose king thought, "There is such a wonderful place in the world, so don't waste this life." Now that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, it is also necessary to lead the public. "
So, he left some ministers and guards to guard their homes, and promised to let them go to Miao Hua to show him in the future, and then led the white geese all over the country to Miaohuachi.
The wonderful flower pond is beautiful, and many beautiful white geese come to make it more charming. People in Ronnies have heard that many beautiful white geese have flown to Miaohuachi, especially Wang Goose, and they have come to watch them.
Minister Ronnies reported to King Wonder: "Your Majesty, a flock of beautiful white geese flew in from nowhere recently, causing a sensation throughout the country. People all went to the wonderful flower pond and regarded it as a miracle.
One of the most striking is the King Goose. All the birds are eclipsed in front of it. Why don't you go and have a look for yourself? "
King Vander was overjoyed and said, "Go and find some good hunters and send more people to surround the wonderful flower pond and catch the beautiful king goose. Let me see if it's like you said. Remember, you can't damage it! "
Three children's bedtime fairy tales: clever goats
On a mountain, there is a magnificent male goat. He eats grass in the mountains during the day and returns to the fence at the foot of the mountain at night. Year after year, goats live very comfortably.
On this day, the goat suddenly heard a gust of wind blowing outside, which made the branches rattle. There seems to be a strange voice shouting in the strong wind. The goat came to the door and looked out, surprised. "Oh,no." It turned out that a tiger was coming to its fence. The goat quickly closed the door and watched the tiger's movements through the crack of the door.
When the tiger came to the fenced house, it smelled it-well, it smelled like mutton-and began to slam the door. This collision, although the thin door cracked sharply and didn't break open, the tiger was still ejected and fell to the ground. When the tiger saw that the gate was cracked, he stepped back a few steps, rushed forward with all his strength and pounced on the gate again. At this time, the goat had a brainwave, suddenly opened the door, passed by the tiger who jumped in and took the opportunity to sneak out.
Because the tiger pushed too hard and nothing could stop it, it suddenly tripped. It got up and looked left and right, but there was no sign of the sheep. It feels as if a shadow has just run out. It knows the "Flash Gate Project". The tiger refused to let go of this delicious food, turned around and pulled up the tiger step to chase.
Although the goat is flexible, it doesn't run as fast as the tiger. Soon, the tiger will catch up soon.
Seeing that he couldn't run away, the goat used his quick wits and turned and swaggered towards the tiger.
The tiger chased after him and saw the goat turn and walk towards him, which was a bit puzzling. At this moment, I suddenly heard the goat shout to it: "Hey, stop! Aren't you a tiger? "
The tiger stopped before seeing the goat. "Yes, who are you?"
The goat said, "Tell me my name, which makes you afraid. My name is Yang Gongshan! " "
"Goat? Can goat meat be eaten? "
"Nonsense! Look, what is this? " The goat wagged its horn and said, "This is called a tiger-killing knife. Your grandparents and parents were killed by it. "
"Ah?" The tiger is a little scared.
"Look again, what is this?" The goat pointed to the "big egg ball" below.
"What?"
"This is called a seasoning bag." The goat put on an air and said, "Your grandparents and parents just asked me to kill them with a tiger knife and then soak them in the seasoning in this bag." The goat tried to push the tiger when he spoke. Seeing that the situation was not good, the tiger turned around and ran away. Where is the goat? He is bluffing in the back. After chasing a few steps, the goat saw that the tiger had run away, quickly stopped, took a long breath and turned and ran down the hill.
The tiger ran for miles at a stretch, out of breath. Suddenly, he saw a bear in front of him and shouted, "Brother Bear, help!" " "
The bear saw the tiger in a mess and asked, "Brother Tiger, what's the matter?"
"No, there is a monster who wants to eat me. Come after me and help me! "
The bear said, "impossible, big brother is among animals." Who dares to eat you? "
"Really, people have a knife to kill me on their heads and a seasoning bag on them!" The tiger was frightened.
"Come on, I'll go and see with my eldest brother. I don't believe there is a master who is more powerful than my big brother. " The bear wanted to please the tiger, so he said, "Big Brother is tired. I'll carry you on my back. You are behind me. I will block anything that is even more powerful. Don't worry! "
The tiger refused but agreed.
Besides, the goat ran home exhausted. It estimated that the tiger would not come again, so it rested. I didn't expect the bear to come with a tiger on his back. He looked at these two behemoths and thought, I am no match for these two guys in terms of strength. I have to find a way to subdue them. The goat came up with a plan with a frown, and then casually walked over to meet the bear and the tiger. When he was far away from the bear, he sneered and said, "Bear, bear, you lost to three tigers on the Internet yesterday. Do you want to carry one to settle accounts today? " No, you have to go back and take two! "
When the tiger heard this, it turned out that the bear was paying the gambling debt. He is angry and anxious. He opened his mouth and killed the bear in one bite. Then he ran away as fast as he could.
The goat looked at the escaped tiger and smiled happily.
Chapter 4 Children's bedtime fairy tales: frogs and scorpions
This story has been told repeatedly recently, and every time I tell it to different people, I have different feelings.
Scorpion crossed the river. It turned to the kind frog for help. The frog said, you are poisonous. What if you sting me? Scorpion said, I stung you and I will sink to the bottom of the river.
The kind frog thought it made sense and crossed the river with the scorpion on his back. When swimming to the middle of the river, the scorpion still stung the frog. At the moment of sinking into the bottom of the river, the frog asked the scorpion, why did you stab me when you knew that the scorpion would sink into the bottom of the river? Scorpion said slowly, because it is my nature.
I used to be confused about this story, because one sentence can naturally ignore the harm of two people. Now, I'm always used to saying, I'm sorry, that's who I am. I'm sorry, that's my style.
The frog knows that the scorpion is poisonous, but he still crosses the river with kindness and simplicity on his back. But just like the story, in the real society, this kindness and simplicity are often trampled on. Because of such trampling, there is no story of frogs crossing the river with scorpions on their backs.
Maybe some people do harm by nature, and even know that they will be hurt, but they still don't hesitate. I wonder if the scorpion shed tears and regretted it at the moment when it finally sank to the bottom of the water. God knows. However, some people still insist that they can change and influence themselves, knowing that the other party will bring harm to them. Kind frogs may not know that poison is the nature of scorpions, which is not something that a frog can influence, but requires a long evolutionary process.
