Be filial to ancestors and respectful to subordinates; work hard to practice virtue and righteousness.
Others leave wealth to their descendants; I leave integrity and honor.
If parents love their children, they should plan for their long-term future.
A hundred years pass easily, but youth never returns. — *Zeng Guang Xian Wen*
Hiding resentment and using hidden arrows brings misfortune to descendants.
If children are not taught, whose fault is it? If children are unfilial, who is to blame? Good parents determine a good future; good children determine the future of a family.
Those who accumulate vast wealth leave misfortune to their descendants; those who indulge in sensory pleasures destroy their lives.
In study and work, never cease to learn and never tire of knowledge; in industry, be diligent and never delay; in family education, be consistent in old age and do not indulge children; in strength, be unyielding and do not bully the weak; in morality, be polite but not excessive, be honest but not unfaithful, follow ethics, and respect the law.
When others have celebrations, do not harbor envy.
If the family is not harmonious, beware of neighbors' bullying; if neighbors are not harmonious, beware of outsiders' bullying.
Every family has its own troubles; only with a happy heart can they be resolved.
Treat others and guests with politeness; be less dependent and more autonomous; be honest and act with integrity, without concealment or deception.
Simple and clean utensils are better than gold and jade.
Use both kindness and righteousness; live in harmony, support each other, and stay together for a lifetime.
Always think of the days you have and the days you may lack; do not wait until the time comes to think of it.
When a husband is righteous and a wife is submissive, the balance of Yin and Yang is harmonious, bringing peace to the home and prosperity to descendants.
If one does not work hard in youth, one will regret it in old age.
It is easy to learn in youth but difficult to achieve in old age; do not treat a single moment of time lightly.
In silence, reflect on your own faults; in idle talk, do not discuss the faults of others.
Having fame without virtue is an ill omen; having excessive wealth in turbulent times is a source of disaster.
Goodness does not come from without; a reputation should not be built on falsehoods.
To raise a high-status family, one must be kind; to have good descendants, one must study hard.
Do not follow the extreme when others are at their peak, and do not rejoice when others are in sorrow.
If youth does not know the hardship of diligent study, old age will regret the delay in reading.
When people regret, do not complain; when people are ashamed, do not expose them.
A child who builds a home is like a treasure; a child who ruins a home treats money like grass.
When managing others, do not let anger take over; when facing slander, focus on self-improvement.
Without detachment, one cannot clarify their will; without tranquility, one cannot reach far.
Forgiving others is not foolishness, for a fool would not forgive.
Always cherish the present and plan for the future; do not wait until the time has passed to think of it.
