释义宋国有个农民正在耕田。田里有棵大树桩,一只兔子飞奔过来,不小心撞在树桩上,折断脖子死了。这个农民无意中得到兔子,十分高兴。从此便放下农具,守在树桩旁边,希望再次捡到撞死的兔子。结果,他再也没有得到兔子,田地却被荒芜了。而他的这种行为也被当作笑话在宋国传开了。 Explanation The state-owned peasants of the Song Dynasty are ploughing fields. There was a big tree stump in the field. A rabbit flew over and crashed into the stump, breaking his neck and dying. The peasant was unhappy with the rabbit and was very happy. Since then, he has put down his farm implements and stood beside the stumps, hoping to pick up the dead rabbit again. As a result, he never got a rabbit again, and the field was deserted. And this kind of behavior was also used as a joke in the Song Dynasty.
