There are many floating mothers (old women cleaning silk floss or old clothes and old fabrics) working by the river. One of them sympathized with what happened to Han Xin, and she kept giving him relief and food. Han Xin is grateful to this hard-working and hard-working floating mother, and thanks her kindness in suffering.
He told her that he would repay her heavily in the future. Floating mother was very unhappy at Han Xin's words, saying that she would not be repaid by Han Xin in the future. Later, Han Xin made great contributions to Hanwang and was named King of Qi. Remembering that he had been indebted to his wandering mother before, he ordered someone to send her food, a table and even a thousand and two hundred gold to thank her. ?
Extended data:
The allusions of wandering mothers originated from Historical Records. Biography of Huaiyin Hou. Although Han Xin was brilliant as a teenager, he was not appreciated by others and was not good at planning in business, so he had to rely on others and was abused and despised.
Once, when he was hungry, he went fishing by the river. A woman who washed clothes felt sorry for him and gave her food to Han Xin for nothing.
Floating mother's words are actually very inspirational. She hopes that Han Xin can cheer up and make a difference! Some scholars have verified that rinsing silk floss was a business at that time. It's very hard and tired. I often crack my hand and I don't make much money. It's really commendable that floating mothers can help Han Xin with extremely low income!
