That thrilling scene of fear seems to have returned to the fixation of yesteryear.
Recall that Zeng Guofan, when bidding farewell to Zeng Guozuan, waved his pen and wrote a song for the ages: "Thousands of autumn miao left me alone, a hundred battles to return to study again".
Some people interpreted it as: Lao Jiu ah, the long years have passed, you have experienced countless battles, and the corpses of soldiers piled up like mountains. You are lucky to have survived the baptism of blood and fire. There's no need to fret over emperors and thrones. Go home, settle down to study, cultivate your body and mind, and spend the rest of your life happily!
However, as more people know well, Zeng Guofan was then deprived of his official position and was forced to return home to save his family and was disheartened. When the brothers left, Zeng Kuo-fan presented them with this couplet to inspire them to strive for knowledge and improve their own cultivation after a long battle, and ultimately achieve greatness. Does Lao Jiu really want to return to the mountains, study hard, cultivate his body and mind, and then achieve greatness?
The writer, though not gifted, believes this to be true. Zhu Ting's contribution to the women's volleyball team is self-evident, but I fear that her power is too thin to turn things around.
Zhu Ting's journey home was difficult, but compared to her inner struggle, it was a hundred times more difficult! Because there were many unspeakable pains and many unspeakable joys.
This emotion is like a fish drinking water, cold and warm, not outsiders can fully understand.
In short, the reality is always more powerful than people imagine. For Zhu Ting, this is indeed the case; her life is like "a thousand autumns left me alone, a hundred battles to return to read 'lose' again" ah!
