The son of man cares about his family, his heart is the highest, his body is the second, and his body is the lowest, but he doesn't care about his heart, his writing and his body.
translate
When children serve their parents, it is important to take care of their parents' hearts, followed by their own bodies.

When people are happy, their mentality will be smooth, and if they eat too much, they will not feel pain, and their qi and blood will be harmonious but not depressed. Naturally, you will be healthy and live a long life.
Therefore, the dutiful son works hard all day, for fear that something will happen to his parents. The family is neither troublesome nor exposed, and it is extremely tolerant of leisure. No matter how rich or poor, they are constantly changing and obedient, just based on pleasing their loved ones. Gai "Yue" is the first heart-to-heart formula.
Even if you are unfortunate enough to have a close relationship, you should work hard on the word "Yue", make more exhortations, pay patient attention and bend your strategy, which has its own magical use.
If you go straight to extremes and abandon it to increase your anger, you will be unhappy, so you can't be a son without following the crowd.
translate
When people are happy, their emotions will be carefree and their appetite will increase without hurting their health. If qi and blood are harmonious and not depressed, they will be healthy and not sick. How can they not live long?
Therefore, dutiful sons should always pay attention to their parents, for fear that anything unpleasant will disturb them. I don't offend my parents, and I also prevent external influences. No matter whether I am poor or rich, high or low, in times of change or adversity, I must make my parents happy first. Making parents happy is the first secret of serving parents.
Even if parents are at fault, we should work hard on the word "Yue" and find ways to make them happy. Sincere suggestions, unremitting efforts, careful attention and tactful strategies have their own wonderful effects.
If you make more mistakes and get angry with your bad temper, you will be greatly hurt.
So it can be said that disobedient parents are not good children.
