Long long ago, in the period of chunqiu(literally "Spring Fall period" 770 to 476 B.C.), there was a peasant in song kingdom. Eeveryday after hardworking, he would had a rest under a tree in his field.One day, he was digging in his field, a panic rabbit run past him, crashed to the tree and killed himself. The peasant got a rabbit without doing anything , he happily took it home and had a delicious meal. Since then, the peasant did no work in his field. He just waited and waited under the tree and waiting for another rabbit rash into it, surely this didn’t happen and from then on his field lay fallow and bare.Chinese idiom: (shǒu zhū dài tù - literally "guard tree wait rabbit" ) You're waiting for a rabbit. Meaning: Foolishly waiting for a most unlikely windfall instead of doing any work.
