Zeng Zi saw Zi Xia and asked him, “Why have you gained weight?”
曾子見到子夏，問道：“你怎么胖了?”
Zi Xia said, “I had a victory, that is why I have gained weight.”
子夏說：“我獲得了勝利，所以胖了。”
“What victory do you refer to?” Zi Xia said, “When I immerged myself in reading books, xiaogushi8.com I revered the principles of the emperors and sages of the past. When I went out, I admired the life of nabodism. There was a fight between the two in my mind, and they came out even. So I got emaciated. Now that the principles of the emperors and sages of the past have won victory, my mind has become more and more peaceful. So I have gained weight.”
曾子問：“你是指什么?”子夏說：“我埋頭讀書時，敬仰先生至圣的`道理，出門在外則羨慕富貴生活的快樂，兩者在心中交戰，難分勝負，所以瘦了下來。現在，先王至圣的道理獲勝了，心中也日益安寧，所以人也胖了起來。”
