Let’s talk about this story first.
When Zhou Chu was young, he was fierce and arrogant, causing trouble. Villagers call it the "three major scourges" along with dragons in the water and tigers in the mountains.
In order to let the three evils fight each other, someone advised Zhou Chu to deal with the dragons and tigers.
So Zhou Chu went up the mountain to kill the tigers and went into the water to kill the dragons. As a result, during the fight with the dragon, Zhou Chu and the dragon floated in the water for dozens of miles. After three days and three nights, the villagers thought that Zhou Chu was dead, so they held a banquet to celebrate that "the three major evils had finally disappeared."
Unexpectedly, during the celebration, Zhou Chu came back. At that time, he suddenly realized that the villagers regarded him as a disaster.
Zhou Chu knew that he was disliked by others, so he went to seek advice from brothers Lu Ji and Lu Yun.
Lu Ji was not around at the time, and Lu Yun persuaded Zhou Chu: "The ancients valued changes in the morning and evening, and your future is still promising. If your ambition is not established, why worry about your reputation."
From then on, Zhou Chu changed his ways with an open mind and became inspirational. He was eager to learn and became a famous scholar.
In order to prevent his descendants from making the same mistake, Zhou Chu established the sixteen-character ancestral motto of "filial piety, loyalty, etiquette, integrity, thrift, humility, fairness, justice, and integrity."
The family motto of the Zhou family reflects the traditional ideas advocated by Confucianism such as filial piety and respect for ancestors, respecting literature and teaching, being diligent, thrifty and modest, and being charitable and charitable. At the same time, Zhou Chu's spiritual factor of not being afraid of correction gave the Zhou family's family motto the power to keep pace with the times.
