This is the 10th painting that I painted for the series stories and my long scroll銆婁簩鍗佸洓瀛濄��: Er Shi Si Xiao Tu -- The Twenty-Four Dutiful Children .
This story names锛� 钄￠『鎷捐憵寮傚櫒 -- Cai Shun Shi Shen Yi Qi -- Cai Shun Picked up Mulberries and Put Them into Different Baskets.
Cai Shun lived in Runan (in today's Henan Province) Han Dynastry (206 BC - 221). When he was young, his father was dead, he treated his mother very well.
It was just the times that Rebellion of Wang Meng and met the famine, food was too expensive to buy, so that he had to pick up the mulberries as food.
One day, when Cai Shun was picking up the mulberries, met some soldiers of the rebel army. They asked him why put the mulberries into two different baskets? Cai Shun answered: "The black (ripened) mulberries will be supplied to my mother to eat, the red (unripe) mulberries for myself."
The soldiers commiserated his filial piety, and sent him two bushels of rice and one of beef feet, to express their respect to Cai Shun.
