Dear Richard,
Huang Xiang (¶À») was another kid who was also very famous in his good conduct in the Dong Han (ªFº~) dynasty. He loved his parent very much. When he was nine years old, he noticed that his aged parent was suffered from the poor health. During the cold winter night, Huang Xiang used his own body to warm up the bed before his parent went to bed. He did this everyday to make his parent sleep well.
Richard, in Chinese culture, to love and respect parent (§µ) is recognized as human nature. We love and respect our parent simply for the return of their love and care given to us. It comes from our heart naturally. We do this with happiness and pleasure. Besides, it is not talking about money at all. Use Huang Xiang as an example. He didn't spend a cent but he had shown his greatest §µ on earth.
With love, Dad
