[The old lady didn’t know how to stop it, she just wanted to protect the gift of life]

[The blooming of redbud flowers in a scenic spot in Xi'an attracted a large number of tourists]

[There are repaired roads, but some tourists take shortcuts and ignore the hard work of others, trampling on vegetable fields that do not belong to the scenic area]

[At first, grandma just tried to dissuade him, but it was ineffective, so she had no choice but to kneel down]

[A head full of white hair, he was so strong that he was stumbling]

[She cried helplessly]

[No one around me pays any attention]

[They threw away the used garbage randomly and were indifferent and mocked the old man’s pleas]

[I remember that tourists trampled on the rice that the old lady had worked so hard to cultivate just to take pictures]

[It turns out that the sentence "The children in the south village bully me because I am old and weak" is not just a casual quote from a textbook.]

"There are also people who are digging wild vegetables recently. There are not so many wild Houttuynia cordata to dig. They are usually found on the ridges of people's fields."

"There are also people who steal to break other people's corn, steal to dig other people's bamboo shoots, steal other people's fruits and vegetables... They are simply a bunch of people who were born by their fathers but not raised by their mothers. They take stealing for granted and do not feel ashamed but proud of it."

"My hometown also makes a living by farming. My grandparents are farmers [crying] It's really sad to see this [crying]"

"Some bad guys will bully you more actively the more pitiful you are. I hope everyone can be more self-aware. After all, it's not easy for people. Don't make things difficult for others. [Eating melon]"

"We engaged the Chinese in the fields, they charged towards us in a single file along the ridges, seemingly unwilling to trample the locals' crops, which made it much easier for us to aim.

"You have to know that you are old. The police won't dare to arrest you if you use a knife to attack others. Just use a knife to guard your own vegetable garden and attack anyone who comes close. Naturally, someone will solve this problem for you."

"When an old man kneels down to a younger person, it will shorten his lifespan. Not to mention if he stands by and does nothing, his luck will deteriorate."

"Does this count as vandalism?"

"Yes, but the money is not much, the police usually won't care."

'There is no punishment like this'

"When you are older and encounter this kind of situation, I support what was said in the comments section just now, use a knife to scare them! Most people bully the good and fear the evil. The more you give in, even the weak who usually don't dare to bully others will step on you."

The common people under the sky witnessed this scene. They couldn't help feeling sad as they watched the old lady's thin and staggering body kneeling on the ground trembling.

Thinking of the elderly people in their family, if they were bullied like this outside, they would definitely go and defend their family members. If they just let it go and do nothing, wouldn’t they be unfilial as children!

They wanted to reach out and help the old man kneeling on the ceiling, but found that they could not touch him.

She was kneeling there at such an old age, with her children not around, and she was crying out in pain and helplessness in the face of the ridicule from the people around her.

What was she thinking at that time?

Even if it is a bandit or a bully who robs others of their property on the street, you will feel pity for him. No matter what, you should not treat an old lady like this and make her kneel down to beg for mercy!

I'm afraid only birth can be so cold and heartless. Even animals sometimes have some warmth and affection.

People can't, or at least shouldn't be so cold and indifferent!

During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty.

At the court, Li Shimin sat on the dragon throne with a sharp gaze. His eyes were deep and firm, revealing his deep concern for the country and the people.

However, seeing the old man kneeling down in sorrow on the sky curtain, I was momentarily out of control: this old man with gray hair was bullied by evil people, and his fields were trampled on at will, why did no one stop it, and the people around him just turned a blind eye?

He looked at his Prime Minister Zhangsun Wuji: Are there many vicious incidents like the one on the sky curtain where old people were bullied?

Faced with Li Shimin's question, Changsun Wuji pondered for a moment and told the truth: Your Majesty, our Tang Dynasty was open and inclusive in the early days of its founding, and there were indeed some incidents of this kind.

Then, as if afraid that Li Shimin would be sad, he added: "But Your Majesty is kind and loves the people. The benevolence you have always advocated is gradually taking root in the hearts of the people."

To be honest, I think this sky curtain is a warning to us.

Now that we can see the sky and know the oppression and suffering endured by the lower-class people, we can strengthen local supervision and allow the people to be exempted in advance. Isn't this a blessing for our Tang Dynasty?
