Zeng Guofan's famous epigram:

1, where the government is, from frugality to extravagance, from extravagance to frugality. No matter how small scholars, farmers, workers and businessmen we are, we are diligent and thrifty, without disappointment, arrogance, burnout and unbeaten.

2, reading is a cold food industry, and you must not have a housekeeper's taste.

3, always introspect and blame yourself everywhere.

If you complain about the sky for no reason, the sky will not be allowed; If you are innocent and treat others, others will not accept it. Whenever you want to complain, you will bow your head and meditate. What is my weakness, to store this injustice?

5, people are happy, not jealous: people have disasters, not happy.

6. Don't talk too much. If you talk too much, you will lose.

7, don't think about giving benefits, don't forget to be grateful.

8. I often think when I am in a bad mood, when I go on stage, and when I leave.

9. If you leave room, don't be complacent.

10, the heart is often used for living, but it is suffocating when not used; What is commonly used is fine, not thick.
