The story of Wang Xiang lying on ice to catch carp
In ancient China, there was a famous story about filial piety(孝顺) called “Wang Xiang Lying on Ice to Catch Carp”. It is one of the most well-known stories from The Twenty-Four Filial Exemplars (《二十四孝》), a book that records true stories of children showing respect and love for their parents.
Wang Xiang lived during the Three Kingdoms Period. His mother died when he was very young. Later, his father married a new wife, who was not kind to him. She often treated him badly and spoke ill of him to his father. Even so, Wang Xiang never complained. He always obeyed his stepmother and tried his best to make her happy.
One cold winter, his stepmother suddenly fell ill. She felt very weak and wanted to have fresh carp soup. But the weather was extremely cold. The river was completely covered with thick ice. There was no way to catch any carp. Wang Xiang was very worried about his stepmother's health. He thought hard and finally had an idea.
He ran to the river, took off his coat and lay down on the cold ice. The ice was freezing, and his body felt like it was in a snowstorm. But he didn't care about the cold. He kept lying there, hoping his body heat could melt(融化) the ice. After a while, the ice under him slowly melted. To his surprise, two lively carp jumped out of the water. He quickly caught them and ran home to make soup for his stepmother.
When his stepmother had the soup, she was deeply moved. From then on, she changed her attitude(态度) towards Wang Xiang and treated him like her own son.
This story tells us the importance of filial piety. Even when facing difficulties, we should always respect and care for our parents. It has been passed down for thousands of years and still teaches people to love their family members.
