25、During the time of Three Kingdoms, there lived a man named Meng Zong. He lost his father when he was a child. When his mother was old and sick, the doctor said that fresh bamboo shoots could save her life. It was winter and he had no idea how to get them. He went into a bamboo field and cried. His love moved heaven and earth. The ground opened. Many bamboo shoots came out. Meng Zong carried them home and made them into a soup for his mother. As soon as she had eaten, she felt much better.

This is one story from The Twenty-four Examples of Filial Piety Stories. The stories were chosen and edited by Kuo Jujing during the Yuan Dynasty. All the stories are about family conduct in Chinese history. In Chinese tradition, filial piety was a very important duty. To be a filial son, one has to completely obey one’s parents during their lifetime. As they grow older, one has to take the best possible care of them.

Today, the form of filial piety is a little different from that in ancient times. People don’t stay in one place for a lifetime. They might study, work and live far away from their parents. The young have their own opinions, which may be different from those of the older generation. But the core filial piety remains the same. That is to love our parents and respect old people.
