Source: Yujian (Han Han Ying's "Han Shi Wai Zhuan" Volume 9): "Zixia passed by Zengzi. Zengzi said: 'Eat.' Zixia said: 'Isn't it for public expense? Zengzi said: "A gentleman has three things, food and drink are not among them; a gentleman has three kinds of music, but the bell, chime, harp and harp are not among them." Zixia said: "Dare you ask about the three kinds of music?" Zengzi said: "There are relatives to fear, and there are kings to do." There are two joys: having relatives to admonish, having children to go to, and having children to anger. There are three joys to having friends to help. 'Zi Xia asked: ' Dare you ask about the three charges? 'Zengzi said: 'Learn with little, and forget with long time. This is the first charge. It is the second charge to serve the king lightly, and it is the third charge to make friends for a long time.' Zi Xia said: "How good! A single word of deed can be used throughout a lifetime; and a single word of deed can be used to govern all peoples. Madam, you can't be ignorant of it. My fields will not be harvested every year, and the soil will be harvested." It's not the same, let alone with others! When you are with others, you will be close even if you are distant; when you are with others, you will be distant even if you are distant. Reality and reality are like glue and paint; virtuality and virtuality are like thin ice. Day. Gentleman, don't pay attention! 'The poem says: 'God listens, and peace finally comes.'"

About the idiom story about being like glue:

The idiom story tells that during the Western Han Dynasty, Zou Yang and Mei Cheng took refuge with Liu Wu, the king of Liang Xiao, because Wu Wang Liu Bi did not listen to their dissuasion. Liu Wu's minister Gongsun Gui was jealous of their talents, so he framed Zou Yang and forced Liu Wu to arrest Zou Yang. Zou Yang wrote a letter to Liu Wu in prison, which said, "I feel it in my heart, I agree with my actions, and I am as close as glue." Liu Wu was deeply moved and released him.
