Idiom story

In the late Ming Dynasty and the early Qing Dynasty, a historian Tan Qian appeared in Zhejiang. Tan Qian studied hard since he was a child, read widely, especially loved history, and was determined to write a full and reliable history of the Ming Dynasty. But because of his poor family, he had no money to buy books, so he had to borrow books everywhere to copy. Once, in order to copy some historical materials, he took dry food with him for more than 100 miles. After more than 20 years of struggle and six revisions, Tan Qian finally completed a chronicle of the Ming Dynasty with more than 4 million words in his 50s, that is, Guo Yan (Qu è). In the face of this monumental work that can be handed down through the ages, Tan Qian's joy can be imagined. However, just before the manuscript went to press, something unexpected happened. One night, the thief sneaked into his house and saw that there was nothing to steal. He thought that the manuscript of Guoyan locked in the bamboo box was valuable property, so he stole the whole bamboo box. Since then, the precious manuscript has been missing. More than 20 years of painstaking efforts suddenly disappeared, which is a fatal blow to anyone, not to mention that Tan Qian is already a frail and sick old man at this time. He doesn't think about food and tea, and it's hard to sleep at night. Only two lines of tears are flowing. Many people thought that he would never stand up again, but Er Yun did not defeat Tan Qian. He soon got rid of the pain and returned to his desk, determined to write the history book from the beginning. After four years of hard work, he finished the first draft of his new book. In order to make the book more complete and accurate, Tan Qian, 59, took the manuscript to the capital Beijing. During his stay in Beijing, he went around, extensively collecting anecdotes of the previous dynasty, and personally went to the suburbs to inspect historical sites. He wears a ragged shirt and runs all day long in the wind and sand. In the face of Gudeng, regardless of his old age and infirmity, he wrote hard. He knew that there was not much time left for himself in his life. After several years of struggle, a new Guoyan was born. The newly written Guoyan, with 108 volumes and 4.284 million words, is a rare masterpiece of Ming history. Tan Qian is also famous in history. In the long journey of life, it is inevitable that there will be bumpy and bumpy, but as long as there is a belief that bad luck can not defeat, the light of hope will dispel the cloud of despair. The belief that misfortune can't defeat English historian Carlisle also suffered the same misfortune as Tan Qian. After years of hard work, Carlyle finally completed all the manuscripts of the history of the French Revolution. He entrusted all the manuscripts of this great work to his most trusted friend mill, and asked mill to put forward his valuable opinions in order to further improve the manuscript. After a few days, mill came to Carlisle, pale and out of breath. He had no choice but to tell Carlisle a sad news: except for a few loose pages, all the manuscripts of the history of the French Revolution had been used as waste paper by his housemaid and burned in the fire. Carlisle was extremely depressed in the face of the sudden blow. At the beginning, when he finished each chapter, he tore the original notes and drafts to pieces. The history of the French Revolution, which he wrote with all his heart and soul, did not leave any record that could be retrieved. However, Carlisle regained his spirits and said calmly, "it's like when I took my notebook to the primary school teacher to correct it, the teacher said to me," no! Child, you must write better! " He bought a large stack of paper and began to write from the beginning. The history of the French Revolution that we read is Carlyle's second writing achievement. Yes, when nothing happens, be as cautious as when something happens; when something happens, be as calm as when nothing happens. Because in the long journey, it is difficult to completely avoid bumpy and bumpy. As long as there is an outcome, no matter whether it is victory or defeat, luck or misfortune, objectively it is a brand new beginning. As long as bad luck does not break faith, the light of hope will dispel the cloud of despair.
