守株待兔

宋国有一个农民，每天在田地里劳动。一年四季，早上天一亮就起床，扛着锄头往田野走；傍晚太阳快落山了，又扛着锄头回家。他实在是很辛苦。 有一天，这个农夫正在地里干活，突然一只野兔从草丛中窜出来。野兔见到有人而受了惊吓。它拼命地奔跑，不料一下子撞到农夫地头的一截树桩子上，折断脖子死了。农夫放下手中的农活，走过去捡起死兔子。他非常庆幸自己的好运气。 晚上回到家，农夫把死兔交给妻子。妻子做了香喷喷的野兔肉，两口子有说有笑美美地吃了一顿。 第二天，农夫照旧到地里干活，可是他再不像以往那么专心了。守株待兔他干一会儿就朝草丛里瞄一瞄、听一听，希望再有一只兔子窜出来撞在树桩上。就这样，他心不在焉地干了一天活，该锄的地也没锄完。直到天黑也没见到有兔子出来，他很不甘心地回家了。 第三天，农夫来到地边，已完全无心锄地。他把农具放在一边，自己则坐在树桩旁边的田埂上，专门等待野兔子窜出来。可是又白白地等了一天。 后来，农夫每天就这样守在树桩边，希望再捡到兔子，然而他始终没有再得到。而农夫地里的野草却越长越高，把他的庄稼都淹没了。农夫因此成了宋国人议论的笑柄。

曾子的妻子上街去，他的儿子跟在后面哭着要去。曾子的妻子没有办法，对儿子说："你回去吧，我从街上回来了杀猪给你吃。

曾子的妻子刚从街上回来，曾子便准备把猪抓来杀了，他的妻子劝阻他说："我只是哄小孩才说要杀猪的，不过是玩笑罢了。

曾子说："小孩不可以哄他玩的。小孩子并不懂事，什麽知识都需要从父母那里学来，需要父母的教导。现在你如果哄骗他，这就是教导小孩去哄骗他人。母亲哄骗小孩，小孩就不会相信他的母亲，这不是教育孩子成为正人君子的办法。"

说完，曾子便杀了猪给孩子吃。

赏析：曾子为了不失信于小孩，竞真的把猪杀了煮给孩子吃，目的在于用诚实守信的人生态度去教育后代、影响后代。但这不见得是韩非此则寓言的原意，韩非子的原意不过是宣扬他的重法守信的法制思想，要统治者制定严酷的法律，然后有法可依，有法必依，执法必严。
