Translation of Zhu's Preface to Dongyang
Translation:

If you study hard, you can also read and write articles at home to understand the content and truth of your speech or article. Don't stay away from your parents, follow the teacher all the way. Since you can't do this, you won't be easy to learn, and you can't be expected to understand this truth.

But the reason why I let you go out to study as a teacher now is that I am worried that you will be tied up by secular affairs at home and can't concentrate on your studies. At the same time, between father and son, I don't want to urge and blame you all day long. And there are no friends at home to discuss with you and increase your knowledge, so I want you to go out for a walk.

Original text:

Gairu is eager to learn, can read and write at home, explain righteousness and reason, and learn thousands of miles without leaving his knees. If you can't do this, you just don't study well and there is no hope. However, the people who sent you here today are afraid that you will be busy with worldly affairs at home. Between father and son, I don't want to supervise day and night. No friends heard about it, so I let you and your party. If you go, you can be brave, get rid of old habits and be diligent, then I still hope. Otherwise it will be in vain. Just like at home, it's just an illusion to come back one day. I wonder what you will do to meet your parents, relatives and old friends. Read it! Read it! "Don't sleep all night, what's there to worry about!" In this business, do your best.
