In "Zeng Guofan's Family Letters", Zeng Guofan's letters to his brothers, parents and elders in the family are sincere, and every word reflects his own cultivation. At the same time, I also learned principles that are still applicable even now, such as: We can only rely on improving our morality and cultivating our profession; when we encounter complaints, we should reflect on ourselves; there are many wells dug but none of them can reach the springs, etc. If we can apply these principles in practice and persevere, we will definitely achieve something.

After a cursory reading, I was deeply touched by the fact that in Zeng Guofan's family letter, he covered a lot of content about the conquest of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Zeng Guofan's letters are detailed and specific, and are very good historical materials that guided him on how to run the army and how to arrange arrangements during the process of pacifying the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. For example, Zeng Guofan's letter home on the fourth day of April in the fourth year of Xianfeng recorded in detail the Battle of Xiangtan, in which his deputy general Ta Qi marched to defeat the Taiping Army. What is particularly rare is that he did not deny his defeat, and the army he personally led was defeated by the enemy. Combined with this description in Zeng Guofan's letters and other historical materials, it has a more substantial and three-dimensional impact on this image. In his family letters, he also expresses his care for his relatives and his expectations for his disciples to study, and various aspects of the Zeng family are shown.

In Zeng Guofan's family letters, the first thing I paid attention to was the large amount of content he mentioned in his letters about the conquest of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Reading and re-reading more will be very beneficial to me.
It makes sense. Even after years of baptism, some sincere feelings and blessings can still be felt by a big brother's requirements and wishes for his brothers. Although it is unavoidable to elaborate, it cannot conceal his sincerity.
The book teaches you the key to success and the quality of life
After reading "Zeng Guofan's Family Letters", I became more and more appreciative of this first famous official in the late Qing Dynasty. In terms of reading, as the only successor of Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism, his articles are written eloquently and read catchy. When he recalled his studies in his later years, he once said that he was a person with low reading talent, but he particularly emphasized the word "quiet" and did not allow anyone to disturb him every time he read a book. He said that only by reading quietly can one truly understand the true meaning of the book and fully understand the meaning of the book. In today's noisy environment and social atmosphere, we should calm down, as Zhuge Liang said, "Quietness cultivates one's morality, and frugality cultivates virtue." Don't be infected by the prosperity outside, and don't be attracted by the temptations in life. "If a person perseveres, anything can be accomplished" is his portrayal. When we look at a person, we always see his sweat, but we don't see him still running with tears in his eyes. Zeng Guofan's persistence is something few people can achieve.
His letters home are full of knowledge and wisdom, not only covering politics, family management, scholarship, etc., But also covering many aspects, such as conduct in life, self-cultivation, etc.
Just finished reading the first chapter, The subtitles are well designed, highlighting the key points, and separate each book, making it easy to read. There are also many good sentences in the wonderful comments, the principles are clear and easy to understand, and many of them can be directly used in compositions. Benefited a lot!

Very real and beautiful
Beautiful and educational
After I read "Zeng Guofan's Family Letters", I felt that the content was very extensive, and it can still be used as an excellent example for modern parents to teach their children and establish good tutoring to this day.
"Zeng Guofan's Family Letter" was shocked by some of his life concepts. The four words of pride, perseverance, sincerity and laziness are the essence of the book. This is a reminder to each of us that only by cultivating one's self can one be able to maintain a harmonious family. Only by starting from arrogance, perseverance, sincerity and laziness can we truly improve our self-cultivation so that we can meet the challenges of the new era and the new direction of highway work, and truly contribute our strength. 👍👍
He attaches great importance to moral cultivation and career development, which resonates with me very much. Just like I just got married, I am also working hard to improve myself, hoping to have a better impact on my family. Moreover, some of the content about housework and advice in the book also reminded me of my own life, which was of great help to me in dealing with family relationships. I think this book can not only help people understand Zeng Guofan's thoughts, but also bring a lot of inspiration to people.

Teacher Zeng Guofan not only expresses his sincere expectations and requirements for his family, but also expresses his concern for his family beyond words.
The letters home written by Zeng Guofan really embody that "knowledge of worldly affairs is knowledge, and understanding of human feelings are articles." His experience is also closely related to the letters he wrote home, and his emotions are integrated into the words.
Learned a lot of rich knowledge By reading "Letters from the Family of Zeng Guofan", looking back at history, basing ourselves on ourselves, and adhering to excellent cultural traditions, we can better find our own value and positioning in the infinitely extending era, and only then can we live up to the times and the country.
In learning, we should use the sculls of "enjoyment in learning" and "ingenious thinking", and advocate the learning attitude and method of "there are roads in the mountains of books, and there are ingenious paths in the mountains of books, and there is no end to the sea of learning, and there is joy in making boats", so that we can learn lively and comprehensively.
After a brief read, I found that although the book is far back in time, it still has high educational significance for today. No matter what angle you read this book, you will be enlightened. Absolutely good book
Wonderful narration with distinctive characters
Very pretty! Gained a lot of truth
