Sima niuyou said: all men have brothers, but I have none. Zixia said: Business News: life and death, wealth in heaven. A gentleman should be respectful and polite. Within the four seas, all brothers are brothers -- why does a gentleman have no brothers?

Sima Niu said sadly, "everyone else has brothers, but I don't have them." Zixia said, "I've heard of life and death, and wealth lies in heaven.". A gentleman is dedicated and does not make mistakes. He is respectful and polite to others. All men are brothers. What does a gentleman worry about? No brothers? "
