Fuk Fuk Street Lushi: innocence and integrity, knowledge of integrity and frugality
“Be innocent and pure, and put the clan and the village first” “It is as difficult to establish as the sky” ; Falling down is as easy as singeing hair. This statement should be regarded as a violent province!" "You must learn etiquette and justice, be honest and shame, work hard, keep diligence and thrift", this is the family rules and family motto of the Lu family in Nanjing. The Lu family abides by the ancestral instructions, keeps their duties, and heirs poetry and books. The descendants of the family are still active in the cultural and educational circles.
[Interpretation of Family Instructions]
① We must take innocence and integrity as the foundation, and put the Mu clan and village first.
[Interpretation] One must be innocent, frank and open, upright and upright. People in the clan must be in harmony and help each other, and at the same time be kind to their neighbors, show courtesy, and respect justice. This is also the prerequisite for a gentleman to stand in the world.
② Choosing a wife for a son, and a husband for a woman, there are three ways: one chooses the virtues of his ancestors. If you are thick, you can enjoy the happiness of your children; one chooses the strictness of their parents' lessons. Strict rules and permanence, the virtues of the children must be prosperous; one chooses the innocence of the door. Innocence means chastity, and children's trip must be done.
[Interpretation] There are usually three criteria for marrying a son and choosing a husband-in-law for a daughter: First, the other's family ancestors are benevolent and have a deep accumulation of virtue. A good family must have Yuqing, and the children must be blessed; second, the other side’s family education must be strict, and the children must be able to understand the rules and keep their duties; third, the other side’s family must also be clean and clean. It is easy for children to develop pure and noble morals, and they must behave properly.
③The proverb goes: the establishment is as difficult as climbing to the sky; the fall is as easy as singing. This remark is regarded as a drastic province!
[Interpretation] The proverb says: If a person becomes a man and a family is prosperous, it often requires a step-by-step climb and great effort, which is extremely hard to come by; while the decline and fall of a person or a family may be as easy as burning fluff. . This sentence must be kept in mind and deeply self-examined. --The original text is taken from Lu's "Family Regulations About Sixteen Rules"
[Family Story]
On the east side of the Zhonghua Gate Castle in the south of the city, where the Qinhuai River turns to the west, there used to be a street called Yingfu Street. A house of the Lu family. Between 1760 and 1765, the brothers Lu Shude and Lu Shuyu from Runzhou (now Zhenjiang City) came to Nanjing for business and settled down. Lu Shude (1745-1766) died young and Lu Shuyu (1752-1819) had a successful business. Since his second son Lu Guanglun (1790-1854), after eight generations of unremitting efforts, he has gradually developed into a prominent family in Nanjing.
Reading and learning rituals, teaching students in accordance with their aptitude
Lu's "Genealogy" contains "Sixteen Prohibitions on Family Regulations", which lists "teaching descendants", "harmonious brothers", "respect for the elders", "Mu clan", "be careful to make friends and travel." ”, “Safety and security” and other house rules. "Every one of my ancestors and grandchildren, the one who teaches, reads poetry and books. The place where it is used is to teach Confucianism, and when it comes out, it is to be a good minister. Secondly, the qualifications are stupid. It is also necessary to learn etiquette and justice, be honest and shameful, work hard, be diligent and thrifty. Don't fall into my door!" This is a passage from the family rule "Teaching Children". As a family of scholars, Lu Shi emphasized "Ten years of trees, a hundred years of trees". For children and grandchildren with different aptitudes, we will teach students according to their needs and tailor their clothes. In such a family environment, learning and progress has become a family tradition that the children of the family consciously abide by, and the younger generations can be described as talented. Among them, the most prominent are Lu Shuyu's grandson, Lu Ying (1834-1893), a scholar in the tenth year of Tongzhi (1871), and later editor and editor of the Hanlin Academy. In the fifth year of Guangxu (1879), he served as a political student in Yunnan, and later lectured at Nanjing Zunjing Academy.
"But you can suffer a loss and not a small blessing"
Lu Qian (1905-1951), the great-grandson of Lu Ying, named Ji Ye, is a famous poet, scholar and professor in my country, and is known as the "Jiangnan Talent". In 1925, Lu's father died. At this time, as the eldest son, Lu Qian had a widow mother and younger siblings, who needed to bear the burden of life for the family. He always keeps in mind the family rules and motto: "Easily get a field, rarer brother. How can I exchange for something that is rare? ... This must be understood!" After graduation, Lu Qian also taught at the university.Part-time responsibilities of other schools. In order to earn more money to subsidize the family, I rushed around teaching. A good friend of his wrote in the article: "(Qian Lu) is a professor at National Jinan University, part-time in Shanghai and Nanjing... So in a week, two days in Zhenru, two days in Shanghai, and two days in Nanjing. , I was on the train one day. Yu Xiao asked, "Isn't it tired?" His moustache wrinkled and he smiled."
"The descendants of today are the descendants of the ancestors. For example, the thousands of branches and leaves of the tree come together. One. Gou Yizhi is injured, and all the branches are withered." The Lu family follow the ancestral instructions, and the family members are tolerant and humble, warm and harmonious. On his mother’s 60th birthday, Lu Qian wrote a song "Chunhui Chapter", which quoted his mother’s usual nagging words: "But it’s not a small blessing..." In the prose "Our Mother", he He also wrote: "The maintenance of a big family is loyalty, and loyalty can only be reconciled. If you can be in harmony, you can help each other." The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law grow up in an orderly manner, and the concubines get along in harmony. He particularly admires his mother for doing housework in accordance with the family tradition of "tolerance and justice".
is full of innocence and devoted himself to the anti-Japanese literary creation.
"Innocent and pure" is the principle of life that the Lu clan people have always upheld. The famous female soldier writer Xie Bingying wrote in the article "Remembering Mr. Lu Jiye": Lu Qian is a person with a "naked heart", "On any occasion, as long as Ji Ye is here, everyone will feel relaxed and happy." . He teaches, studies, writes, makes friends, and lives in all kinds of things, all starting from his own pure heart. Lu Qian wrote a little poem "Ability": "I remember when I was young, I loved to talk and you loved to laugh. Once sitting side by side under a peach tree, the wind was in the forest and the birds were calling. We were sleepy. How many flowers fall." Later, Mr. Huang Zi, known as the "father of modern Chinese music", composed it into a song and sang it widely across the country. During the War of Resistance against Japan, Lu Qian’s collection of poems "ZTE Advocates" was presented to frontline soldiers to inspire the spirit of the resistance. "For such a universe, you should die with generosity and tragic songs. You can't see you, Hu Chen is full of eyes, and the mountains are left with water. Thousands of miles are thrown into waste and black, and a few children are waving. Ask Jianghuai, if you are a man, you have no more children. Press the sword and renew Oath. Willing to shed, heroic tears. Even innocence will perish me, and death will be only after death. It is all over the world, and the king will wash his shame..." The song "Man Jiang Hong" sang the passion of the Chinese sons and daughters to save their lives and fight to the end. In May 1940, Guo Moruo once said: "We read some of the anti-Japanese words in the collection of Mr. Lu Jiye's "ZTE Advocacy". We read it, and we also admire and be encouraged."
Lu Sheng, the fourth brother of Lu (1918-1977) Years), as a famous ancient architect, founded the Department of Architecture of Tianjin University. Lu Qian’s cousin Lu Zhenjing (1906-1969), a librarian and a former professor at Nantah University, edited the "Dictionary of Library Science", which was recognized as the first library professional reference book in China.
[Present style] The descendants of the
family are still active in the cultural and educational circles.
Lu Yongchun, the son of Lu's former cousin Lu Zhenggang, is a well-known lyrics writer in my country and the vice chairman of Jiangsu Music and Literature Society. On the Ching Ming Festival in 1964, the poem "Advance in the Footsteps of Martyrs" written by Lu Yongchun was composed and sung throughout the country. In 1973, he created "Uncle Lei Feng Looks at Us Laughing", which brought to life Lei Feng's kindness, nobleness and love. Since then, he has created a precedent for "neo-classical aesthetics" with lyrics of "Jiangnan Series" such as "Jiangnan Rain".
Lu Qian’s cousin, Lu Zhengyao’s daughter, Ye Juhua, is an architect who plans to rebuild the Confucius Temple. In 1983, Nanjing initiated the construction of the Confucius Temple Scenic Belt, and Ye Juhua, the chief engineer of the Municipal Construction Committee and chief engineer of the reconstruction of the Confucius Temple at the time, made contributions to the construction of the Confucius Temple Scenic Belt. During the Youth Olympic Games, Ye Juhua participated in the inspection and guidance work to ensure the design quality of the old house project in the Youth Olympic Culture and Sports Park. Now, Ye Juhua, who is over seventy years old, is still the planning consultant for the renewal and reconstruction of Nanjing Old City South. The descendants of
Lu's family have deep feelings for the historical origin of the family and consciously abide by the family traditions. In the spring of 2004, Lu Ji, the fourth son of Lu's former son, learned that the Zhonghua Book Company was about to publish "Jiye Wenchao" (four volumes), and he "poured everything and supported it." In 2008, he and his wife completed the continuation of "Nanjing Branch Genealogy Draft", but they had a wish.
