Ceng Shiqiang's enlightenment to Zeng Guofan is also worth seeing.

The first time I heard about Ceng Shiqiang was in the second semester of Senior Two, in that snowy winter.

For two months, my monitor and I braved the cold every noon to watch the lecture hall ―― Ceng Shiqiang's Book of Changes in the house rented by another classmate.

It was really amazing at that time. The book of changes, which was originally bitter and difficult to understand, is so fun.

Later, I was old. I began to pay attention to practicality, and I gradually moved away from the mysterious things.

Last night, I was bored. I saw a copy of Ceng Shiqiang's "Zeng Guofan's Enlightenment" in the limited-time free reading on WeChat.

I'm not going to read this kind of book. Because, I feel that although Father Zeng is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, he is known as the "teacher of heaven and man"; However, after all, it's just high-end chicken soup.

Many of his masterpieces are aimed at enterprise executives and parents of children. After all, there is some distance from me.

Because I voted "Zeng Guofan says you are a loser" a few days ago and saw a free book about Zeng Guofan. Very kind, think it's fate. It's a pity not to take a look.

The first chapter, life rising from mediocrity.

Everyone only drinks two glasses of wine in his life: one bitter wine and one sweet wine. It depends on how you drink. You drink sweet things first, and then you will suffer. In fact, we would rather suffer a little when we are young, and then grow up with ourselves, and it will become more and more relaxed in the future.

I was shocked to see this passage. Master Zeng's language has always been straightforward and simple, and this paragraph is no exception. Now the society is so impetuous, everyone is eager for success, empty and boring.

"Suffering comes first, happiness comes last". This idea has no market among young people. I sat patiently and continued to watch.

Zengfu's chicken soup is naturally unique, and the ups and downs of Zeng Guofan are explained by the Book of Changes.

To be honest, I think it's far-fetched. Because I ching is really a panacea. Everything can be put in it. The most amazing thing is that you can still make a reasonable statement, so you can't help but believe it.

Excluding those mysterious parts, I think that it is not necessarily a good thing that a person's life is too smooth, because great things often come late. If Zeng Guofan had not experienced these ups and downs, it would be difficult to have those achievements he made later.

This is a sincere word from the heart. But we ask ourselves, how many people are willing to believe that success is late if they don't accept young people who become famous early?

Chapter two, the wisdom of dealing with the world lies in silence.

A few years ago, a fairly thick book was popular in the society, called "The Ice Guide of the Left Hand, the Classic of the Right Hand". Of course, there are "Left-handed Tathagata, right-handed Christ", "Left-handed Caigen Tan, right-handed La Roche", "Left-handed Analects of Confucius, right-handed Bible". If it is.

It is really "flowers are getting more and more charming."

I believe, in a word, thousands of books.

In fact, a book "The Classics of the Court" only talks about more than 2,000 words. What is Tingting? Zeng Guofan's student Li Hongzhang used a story to illustrate.

Once upon a time, a family invited their son to buy food in town, but he didn't come home at noon. The old man went out to look outside. I saw my son and a peddler, facing each other on the ridge of the field, to outdo each other. The old man came forward to persuade the vendor to say, "I have guests at home." Please make it convenient for my brother to pull over to the next paddy field and let him pass. It can be passed, so it is convenient. " The peddler heckled and said, "You told me to get into the water. What happened to him? . "

The old man explained, "He is short, so he will get wet in the water. Your brother is tall and won't get wet. " The peddler retorted, "There are valuable Beijing goods in my goods. If it is flooded, it is worthless. There are only vegetables in your basket. You can eat it even if you dip it in water. Why don't you tell me to make way, regardless of your value? "

Seeing that he was speechless, the old man stood up and said, "Let's go, my old man is going to the field, and your brother will give me the burden, go empty-handed and pick it up." Immediately, the old man leaned down and took off his shoes and socks. The peddler was sad to see the old man like this. Then he gave in and said, "Don't bother, I'll go to the rice field." .

This dispute was dissolved invisibly when the old man stood up. Old people combine hard and soft without using any means. Seemingly weak, but actually strong. Don't stop until you get what you want.

This is the truth of this story, which is also the so-called truth.

Chapter three, ice guide: Tao knows everyone's secrets.

The so-called "ice guide" is based on ice and can check people's faces. This book is divided into seven articles.

To put it bluntly, this chapter is to teach us how to judge a book by its cover. For example, women have high cheekbones, thick and honest lips, sinister aquiline nose and dark graphic face, and so on.

I am not very interested in this chapter. Because if quasimodo in Les Miserables is analyzed by Bing Jian, it is really "Nanyue bamboo is exhausted, and book crimes are endless;" Resolve the waves in the East China Sea, and evil will not flow. "But his heart is much more beautiful than most people. Historically, people like Qin Gui and Wang Jingwei were handsome men. According to the analysis of the ice guide theory, they are all perfect.

The fourth chapter and the fifth chapter are Zeng Guofan's employment and official accomplishment respectively.

I use one word to probability these two chapters: chicken soup.

If you have to add a restriction, it is Ceng Shiqiang Chicken Soup with Yijing flavor.

All in all, this book is not my type. But opening books is beneficial, after all, it is much better than drinking chicken soup without nutrition. When you are bored, it is also worth seeing.
