She was known for her ability to teach her children and her generosity towards others. Tao Kan was an orphan when he was young, and his family was poor. Tao\’s mother worked hard to make a living by spinning and weaving linen, and supported Tao Kan in his studies. Allusions such as Tao\’s mother \”cutting off the banquet guests\” and \”closing the altar and withdrawing the fish\” are widely spread, and everyone respects her as a \”virtuous mother\”. When Tao Kan was young, it snowed heavily, and Tao Kan\’s friend Xiaolian Fan Kui from Poyang came to visit. Tao Kan was very anxious because his family was poor and he was worried that he would neglect his friends by not entertaining them. His mother saw this and comforted him, saying, just keep the guests, I will try to entertain your friends. She cut off the long hair on her head and replaced it with food and wine; she \”cut the pillars of the house\” for firewood; she also rolled up the hay spread on the bed, cut it into fine pieces, and fed Fan Kui\’s horse. When Fan Kui learned about it later, he said with emotion: \”Only a mother like this can educate a talent like Tao Kan!\” His mother\’s virtue of \”treating people like a banquet guest\” was deeply engraved in Tao Kan\’s heart. After Tao Kan became an official, he always maintained a style of treating others that was \”respectful and courteous\” and \”welcoming guests who were far away and never stopped at home\”.

Unexpectedly, my mother returned the jar of fish bream intact and wrote in the letter: \”You are an official now. Giving me official gifts will not only fail to make me happy, but will also increase my worries.\” Tao Kan was shocked and felt extremely guilty when he received the return letter and the reply from his mother. This incident gave Tao Kan a great education and laid the foundation for Tao Kan\’s integrity as an official later. Tao Kan was a man of great learning, upright, impartial and law-abiding. He became a chief official, a lieutenant, a governor general, and a governor of Changsha, becoming a model for ancient Chinese scholars and officials. And all of this is inseparable from Tao Mu\’s education. Later generations praised: \”If a mother like Zhan can teach her son, why should the country suffer from having no talents to use?

When Ouyang Xiu was an official, he actively supported Fan Zhongyan in maintaining the new law, and was later demoted for this. But Ou\’s mother did not complain about her son\’s poor career, but comforted her son and said: \”You were demoted for justice, which cannot be said to be disgraceful.
