Don't envy wealth and dignity, don't worry about poverty and humbleness. What you care about should be entering Germany and studying. Where is your status worth worrying about?
Don't be too sad to hear slander; When you hear praise, you don't have to be overjoyed. What I care about is whether what I do is aboveboard, and it's really not worth caring about the slander and praise of others.
Don't be arrogant, so you can stay away from the humiliation of others. Don't try to find a job by sweet talk, but respect your personality.
Keep away from bad friends when making friends, so as not to be tempted and influenced. The residence must be adjacent to the gentleman, which can play a subtle role. There are only good and evil, not intimacy and alienation.
Cultivate the external kung fu to achieve the internal, so that the internal is more peaceful and sincere. When cultivating the internal, don't miss the external, and follow the benevolence and righteousness in every word and deed.
Wan Li road, but also from the foot of the first step. Towering peaks are made up of tiny dust particles. Studying in Germany is like this, and the most important thing is novelty.

If my descendants violate these teachings, they are not my descendants.
