They are good friends and their age gap is
huge(忘年之交)
The Eastern Han Dynasty in China had a
famous minister named (Kong Rong). He is a descendant of the 20th generation of
Confucius.
His story is recorded in the history books.
He is a very tolerant person, he is not
suspicious of others, and he trusts others very much.
He likes to make friends, and his friends
come from a wide range of ages.
He often invited many young people to his
house for banquets.
Once, at a banquet, he picked up the wine
glass in his hand and said to all the guests in the audience.
There are two things that I am happiest
about. The first is that there are many guests in my house every day.
The second thing is that I can drink a lot
of alcohol every day.
He eats and chats with these young people.
He takes this opportunity to observe each person's strengths.
He will praise these young people, and he
will make his own criticisms.
He will be happy if these young people have
good behavior, and if these young people have good advice he will listen.
If he thinks a young man is talented, he
will take the initiative to recommend and help the young man.
He has a good friend who is 20 years
younger than him, and he admires this young man.
He thinks this young man is a genius, and
he thinks this young man will become an important pillar in the future of the
country.
The young man's name is (Miheng).
People at the time praised their
friendship, saying that the friendship between the two of them transcended the
limitations of age.
This idiom is used to describe two people
with a huge age gap, but they are very good friends.
Dear friends, what inspiration or thoughts

忘年之交(They are good friends and their age
gap is huge)
(他們是好朋友他們的年齡差距很大)
中國的東漢王朝有一個著名的大臣，他的名字叫做(孔融)。他是孔子的第20代的子孫。
歷史書上記載了一個他的故事。
他是一個很寬容的人，對別人都不猜忌，他很信任別人。
他很喜歡交朋友，他的朋友年齡層很廣。
他常常邀請很多年輕人到他家參加宴會。
有一次，他在一場宴會中，他拿起手中的酒杯對著全場的所有賓客說。
我最開心的事情有兩件，第一件就是我家每天都有很多賓客。
第二件事情就是我每天都可以喝很多酒。
他與這些年輕人一起吃飯，一起聊天。他藉由這個機會觀察每個人的長處。
他會讚美這些年輕人，他也會提出自已的諍言。
這些年輕人如果有好的行為他會很開心，這些年輕人如果提出好的建議他會聽從。
他如果覺得一個年輕人有才能，他會主動給予這個年輕人推薦與幫助。
他有一個好朋友，這個好朋友年紀比他輕20幾歲，他很欣賞這個年輕人。
他認為這個年輕人是一個天才，他認為這個年輕人會成為國家未來重要的棟樑。
這個年輕人的名字叫做(禰衡)。
當時的人們讚美他們之間的友誼，說他們兩個人的友誼超越年齡的侷限。
這句成語被用來形容兩個人的年齡差距很大，但他們是非常好的朋友。
親愛的朋友，你聽完這個故事有怎樣的啟發或有怎樣的想法呢。
最令你感到開心的事情是什麼呢?你的好朋友中，與你年紀差距最大的是誰呢?
我期待這故事能讓你產生一些新的收穫。
