Chinese proverbs are rich and they are still widely used in Chinese people’s daily life. Behind these proverbs there are often interesting stories. For example, the proverb, “plucking up a crop 101 (help) it grow”, is based on the following story.
_102_ is said that a short—tempered man in the Song Dynasty (960—1279) was very anxious to help his rice crop grow up quickly. He was thinking about this day and night. But the crop was growing much slower than he expected.
One day, he came up with an idea 103 he would pluck up all of his crop a few inches. He did so _104_ next day.
He was very tired 105 doing this for a whole day, 106 he felt very happy since the crop did “grow” 107 (high).
His son had been told _108_ this and went to see the crop. Unfortunately the leaves of the crop began to wither.
This proverb is saying we have to let things go in their 109 (nature) course. Being too anxious to help an event develop often 110 (result) in the contrary to our intention.
