He made great sacrifices for his friends(兩肋插刀)
In China's Qing Dynasty, there was a folk
song enthusiast named Hua Guangsheng.
He collected many popular folk songs of the
time and compiled them into a book.
There are a total of 839 songs in this
book, and one of them mainly tells the story of the life of a famous general in
the Tang Dynasty. The name of this general is (Qin Qiong). .
The gist of the song is as follows.
Qin Qiong was the reincarnation of a famous
immortal in heaven. In his life, he met and befriended many of the most famous
heroes of the present day.
He once sold his horse because he had no
money. In the process of selling the horse, he met (Shan Tong), who later
became his lifelong friend.
He once met 45 people at a birthday party
in Shandong, and he and these 45 people later became good friends, closer than
brothers.
He was once sentenced for an accidental
injury case, but he happened to meet his aunt who had been separated for many
years. With the help of his aunt, he was able to save his life.
Once a good friend of his was arrested by
the authorities and he wanted to disguise himself as a robber to rob the
prison.
But if he made that decision, he would most
likely lose his life, and if he died, he would never see his family again.
Faced with a very difficult choice, he
later decided to leave his family.
He made great sacrifices for his friend,
whom he later managed to save.
He joined the revolutionary army resisting
the Sui dynasty and rescued a man called Li Yuan.
Li Yuan later became the founder of the
Tang Dynasty.
During the establishment of the Tang
Dynasty, he led the army to defeat many enemies. He was one of the 24 most
important heroes in the founding of the Tang Dynasty.
The literal translation of this idiom is
that a knife was stuck next to his right ribs and another knife next to his
left ribs.
The original meaning of this idiom is that he
was at a crossroads in his life and finally decided to help his friends.
This idiom is used to describe a person who
makes great sacrifices for his friends.
