Chinese Story 中国故事 Volume 1/8 - Story 01-25 V2020

Book excerpt: 这套中国故事，有历史故事、有寓言故事、有民间流传的故事、也有神话故事。但不论是那一类的故事，它除了知识和趣味，都是讲忠孝节义，劝人向善向上，一个好心的人，最后定有好报；一个乐意帮助他人的人，一定会博人喜悦，有所收获；一个肯努力上进的人，终能成功。当然，坏人永远是没有好下场的，这情形几乎成为一项必然的结果。仔细想想，其中确有道理，而不是一种虚构的故事情节。 The Chinese Stories Series has 8 volumes. There were history stories、fables、folk stories and fairy tales. And every kind of story, along with being informative and interesting, also taught us about filial piety and moral integrity, and encouraged us to do good and improve our-selves. A kind-hearted person was always rewarded in the end; a person who was willing to help others was always well-liked by others and always reaped benefits; and a person who was willing to work hard always succeeded in the end. Naturally, bad people always came to no good end. Each story was almost certain to finish in this way. And if we really think about it, endings such as these make sense; they are not just meaningless story plots.
