About the artwork
父母恩情似海深,人生莫忘父母恩; 兄弟本是同根生,莫因小事起争论; 生儿育女循环理,世代相传自古今; 手足之情诚可贵,万事皆念骨肉亲 Parents’ kindness is as deep as the sea, and you should never forget your parents’ kindness in life; The cycle of childbirth and childbirth has been passed down from generation to generation; brotherhood is sincere and precious, and all things are relative
