从前(cóng qián), 宋国有个人性子很急 (sòng guó yǒu gè rén xìng zǐ hěn jí), 插下秧苗后 (chā xià yāng miáo hòu), 他总是担心他的禾苗不长高 (tā zǒng shì dān xīn tā de hé miáo bù zhǎng gāo), 于是他每天都会跑到田边去看看秧苗长高了没有 (yú shì měi tiān dōu huì pǎo dào tián biān qù kàn kan yāng miáo zhǎng gāo le méi yǒu). 一连几天 (yì lián jǐ tiān), 都不见秧苗长高 (dōu bú jiàn yāng miáo zhǎng gāo), 他心里更着急了 (tā xīn li gèng zháo jí le).

有一天 (yǒu yī tiān), 他忽然想出了一个主意 (tā hū rán xiǎng chū le yī gè zhǔ yì). 他跑到田里 (tā pǎo dào tián lǐ), 把秧苗拔高了一些 (bǎ yāng miáo bá gāo le yì xiē), 然后走到田边一看 (rán hòu zǒu dào tián biān yī kàn), 秧苗果然长高了许多 (yāng miáo guǒ rán zhǎng gāo le xǔ duō). 于是他马上照着样子把整块田的秧苗全都拔高了 (yú shì tā mǎ shàng zhào zhe yàng zǐ bǎ zhěng kuài tián de yāng miáo quán dōu bá gāo le).

太阳像一团火球一样挂在天上 (tài yáng xiàng yī tuán huǒ qiú yí yàng guà zài tiān shàng), 农夫拔了一天的秧苗 (nóng fū bá le yì tiān de yāng miáo), 累得筋疲力尽 (lèi dé jīn pí lì jìn), 但是他心里却是十分高兴的 (dàn shì tā xīn li què shì shí fēn gāo xìng de).


回到家里 (huí dào jiā lǐ), 农夫对家人说 (nóng fū duì jiā rén shuō): "唉(āi), 今天可把我累坏了 (jīn tiān kě bǎ wǒ lèi huài le), 辛辛苦苦干了一天 (xīn xīn kǔ kǔ gàn le yì tiān), 总算帮助秧苗长高了一大截 (zǒng suàn bāng zhù yāng miáo zhǎng gāo le yī dà jié)." 他儿子一听 (tā ér zǐ yī tīng), 居然还有这样的好事 (jū rán hái yǒu zhè yàng de hào shì), 连忙跑到田里去看 (lián máng pǎo dào tián lǐ qù kàn), 只见满田的秧苗全都耷拉着脑袋枯死了 (zhǐ jiàn mǎn tián de yāng miáo quán dōu dā la zhe nǎo dài kū sǐ le).



寓意 (yù yì): 事物的发展 (shì wù de fā zhǎn), 以及人的成长 (yǐ jí rén de chéng zhǎng), 都是循序渐进的 (dōu shì xún xù jiàn jìn de), 违背了自然发展的客观规律 (wéi bèi le zì rán fā zhǎn de kè guān guī lǜ), 急于求成 (jí yú qiú chéng), 不仅无益 (bù jǐn wú yì), 反而有害 (fǎn ér yǒu hài).

_________________________________

Once in the State of Song, there was a man who was easy to get impatient. After planting the rice shoots, he was worried about his seedlings growing too slowly. Every day, he went to the field to see whether his seedlings grow. But it seemed they did not grow, the man got more worried.

One day, he came up with a great idea. He went to the field, and pulled some of the seedlings. Then he got back to the ridge of the field. As a result, the seedlings seemed grow a lot. The farmer was very satisfied and pulled all the seedlings of the entire field.

It was very hot, and the sun was like a fireball. The man worked hardly the whole day, and was exhausted. However, he was very happy with his work.

When he got home, he said proudly to his family members, "I am tired out today. After a whole day’s hard work, I helped the seedlings grow a lot." His son wondered how this happened, and hurried to the fields to have a look, only finding that all the seedlings had shriveled up.

Moral of the story: The growth of things and man is gradual and follows in proper sequence. Non-natural growth is useless and harmful.
