1. Wolf and Egret The wolf accidentally swallowed a bone and felt very uncomfortable. It ran around looking for a doctor.
It met the heron and agreed to pay him to take out the bones. The heron stuck his head into the wolf's throat, took out the bones, and asked the wolf for the agreed payment.
The wolf replied: "Hey, friend, you can take your head back from the wolf's mouth without incident. Aren't you satisfied? Why do you need to talk about rewards?" This fable shows that the reward for doing good to bad people is to know the bad people and not tell them.
The nature of credit.
2. The Little Boy and the Scorpion There was a little boy catching grasshoppers in front of the city wall, and he caught a lot of them in a short time.
Suddenly he saw a scorpion. He thought it was also a grasshopper, so he used both hands to catch it.
The scorpion raised its stinger and said, "Come on, if you really dare to do this, even the grasshoppers you catch will be lost." This story warns people to distinguish between good people and bad people and treat them differently.
3. The Fox and the Grapes One hot summer day, the fox was walking through an orchard. He stopped in front of a large bunch of ripe and juicy grapes.
The fox thought: I am thirsty.
So he took a few steps back, rushed forward, and jumped up, but he couldn't reach the grapes.
The fox backed away and tried again.
Once, twice, three times, but no grapes.
The fox tried again and again without success.
Finally, he decided to give up. He held his head high and said as he walked: "I'm sure it's sour."
It is a metaphor that some people are powerless and unable to accomplish something, so they use the excuse that the time is not yet ripe.
4. The Widow and the Hen There was a widow who kept a hen, and the hen laid an egg every day.
She thought that if the chickens were fed more barley, they would lay two eggs every day.
So she fed her like this every day. As a result, the hens grew fatter and fatter, and they couldn't even lay an egg every day.
It is a metaphor that some people want to get more benefits because of greed, but in the end they even lose what they already have.
5. The fox and the billy goat who fell into the well. A fox lost his footing and fell into the well. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not climb up, so he had to stay there.
The goat felt very thirsty. When he came to the well, he saw the fox under the well and asked him if the water in the well was good.
The fox felt that the opportunity had come, and was secretly happy. He immediately calmed down and praised the well water for drinking. He said that the water was the best spring in the world, sweet and refreshing, and persuaded the goat to come down quickly and drink with him.
He just wanted to drink water and believed it was a real goat, so he jumped in without thinking. After he drank the water, he had to discuss with the fox how to get to the well.
The fox was well prepared. He said cunningly: "I have a way. You put your front feet on the wall of the well and straighten your horns. I will jump up to the well from your back and pull you up. We will all
Saved." The billy goat agreed to his proposal, and the fox stepped on his hind feet, jumped on his back, and then jumped out of the well with a powerful jump from its horns.
After the fox went up, he was ready to escape alone.
The billy goat accused the fox of not keeping his promise.
The fox turned back to the billy goat and said, "Hey, friend, if your mind was as perfect as your beard, you wouldn't jump blindly before seeing the exit clearly." This story shows that smart people should jump in beforehand.
Thinking about the consequences of things before doing it is the right thing to do.
