洛阳纸贵

Long ago, the writer Zuo Si lived in a village in the state of Qi. His family was poor, but they were rich in knowledge.

They studied the teachings of Confucius. Zuo Si’s father was in charge of the royal records of the Wei Kingdom.

Zuo Si liked to play word games with his sister. She grew up to become a famous writer.

When she moved to the capital city of Luoyang, Zuo Si decided to move there, too.

Zuo Si was a quiet man. He spent most of his time at home, writing.

If Zuo Si had a thought, he would write it down immediately.
