A very nice set of 8 paintings. 5 of them are of the 24 filliar exemplars. Paintings are signed Qian Hui'an (1833-1911), Qing Xi Qiao Zi. He Felt Pain in His Heart When His Mother Bit Her Finger (????; ????; Nie Zhi Tong Xin) Zeng Shen ?? Spring and Autumn period Zeng Shen was born in a poor family and was known for his filial piety. Once, when he was out gathering firewood, some visitors showed up at his house. His mother bit her finger and hoped that he would sense something and come home quickly. As she expected, Zeng felt a sharp pain in his heart and thought that something had happened to his mother, so he immediately rushed home. His mother told him the reason when he returned. The guests praised him for his filial piety. He Laboured to Support His Mother (????; ????; Xing Yong Gong Mu) Jiang Ge ?? Han dynasty Jiang Ge carried his mother on his back and took care of her along the way as they travelled from Linzi to Xiapi . When they encountered robbers on the journey, Jiang tearfully pleaded with them to spare him and his mother. The robbers were so touched by Jiang's filial piety that they spared him and his mother, and pointed out a safe travel route for him. In Xiapi, Jiang worked hard to ensure that his mother could live comfortably. He Fought a Tiger to Save His Father (????; ????; E Hu Jiu Qin) Yang Xiang ?? Jin dynasty When Yang Xiang was 14, he once followed his father to harvest the crops. A tiger suddenly appeared and attacked his father. In desperation, Yang jumped onto the tiger and attempted to strangle it with his bare hands. The tiger released his father and ran away. His Filial Piety Moves Heaven and Earth (????; ????; Xiao Gan Dong Tian) Shun ? Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors era This story was set in the childhood of Shun, a mythical Chinese ruler. Shun's mother died when he was young so his father remarried and had another son with Shun's stepmother. Shun remained filial to his father, respected his stepmother and loved his half brother even though they tried to kill him. His filial piety moved the gods so they protected him from harm and made the animals help him in his daily farming chores. He Sold Himself for His Father's Funeral (????; ????; Mai Shen Zang Fu) Dong Yong ?? Eastern Han dynasty Dong Yong lost his mother at a young age so he lived with his father, who also died not long later. As he could not afford to give his father a proper funeral, Dong sold himself as a slave to a rich man, who paid for his father's funeral. One day, he met a homeless woman and married her. She helped him weave 300 rolls of silk within a month. Dong sold the silk and used the money to buy his freedom. On the way back, the woman revealed that she was actually the Heavenly Emperor's daughter and was sent to Earth to help Dong gain back his freedom. She then returned to Heaven since her task was complete.
