Eating is the placement of chopsticks. What's the point?
1, three long and two short, means to put chopsticks on the table with uneven length before or during eating. This is unlucky. Usually we call it "three long and two short". It means "death". 2. It is also extremely unacceptable for the gods to guide the way. This method of holding chopsticks is to hold chopsticks with thumb, middle finger, ring finger and little finger, and the index finger is extended. This is called "cursing the street" in the eyes of Beijingers. Because when you eat, your index finger sticks out and always points at others. When Beijingers generally extend their index fingers to each other, most of them have the meaning of accusation. Therefore, pointing at people while eating with chopsticks is tantamount to accusing others, just like swearing, which is not allowed. Another situation is this meaning, that is, talking to others and pointing at people with chopsticks while eating. 3. It is also impossible to leave a sound on chopsticks. The practice is to put one end of chopsticks in your mouth and push it back with your mouth, making a hissing sound from time to time. This kind of behavior is considered despicable. Because it is impolite to eat chopsticks with your mouth, and it is even more annoying when accompanied by sound. Therefore, this practice is generally considered to be the lack of family education and is not allowed. The act of knocking on cups is regarded as begging for food, and its practice is to knock on plates and bowls with chopsticks while eating. Because in the past, only beggars hit the begging bowl with chopsticks, and the sound was accompanied by crying in their mouths, which would attract the attention of pedestrians and give alms. This practice is considered extremely despicable and despised by others. 5, the practice of patrolling the city is to hold chopsticks in your hand and do it like no one is watching. Use chopsticks to inspect the dishes on the table and know where to get chopsticks. This kind of behavior is a typical lack of self-cultivation, and arrogance is extremely disgusting. 6. Unexplained digging a grave means holding chopsticks in your hand and pulling them in a dish in order to find prey, just like robbing a grave. This practice is similar to "visiting the city", which is both uneducated and boring. 7, tears, in fact, this is when you pick up the dishes on the plate with chopsticks, your hands are not neat, and the soup is spilled into other dishes or on the table. This practice is considered to be a serious faux pas, and it is also undesirable. 8, hanging upside down, this means that chopsticks are used backwards when eating. This practice is very despised. As the saying goes, people are so hungry that they don't care about their faces. It is absolutely impossible to knock down chopsticks. 9. It's no good holding the dishes on the plate with a chopstick when eating in Dinghai Shenzhen. This is considered as a humiliation to the diners at the same table. Making such a move while eating is tantamount to putting up the middle finger in public in Europe, which means the same thing, and this is unacceptable. 10, burning incense in public places is often out of kindness to help others fill their meals. In order to facilitate and save trouble, put a pair of chopsticks in their own meals and hand them to each other. It is regarded as disrespectful by people, because the tradition in Beijing is to do this when offering incense to the dead. If you insert a pair of chopsticks into your rice, it will be regarded as the same as offering incense to the dead. Therefore, it is absolutely unacceptable to put chopsticks in a bowl. 1 1, crossing is often overlooked, and chopsticks are crossed casually on the table when eating. This is not right, because Beijingers think that crossing at the dinner table is a total denial of others at the same table, just like the nature of students' wrong homework being crossed by teachers in this book is unacceptable to others. In addition, this practice is also disrespectful to myself, because in the past, I only used a fork to confess when I was in court, which is undoubtedly denying myself, and this is also not acceptable. 12, the so-called "landing shock" means accidentally dropping chopsticks on the ground, which is a serious rude performance. Because Beijingers think that all ancestors are buried underground and should not be disturbed, it is a great unfilial act to disturb the ancestors underground when chopsticks fall on the ground, so this kind of behavior is not allowed. But there is a way to break it. As soon as the chopsticks land, you should quickly draw a cross on the ground with the chopsticks that have landed according to the direction in which you sit. Its direction is east and west first, then north and south. It means that I am not a thing, I should not disturb my ancestors, and then I will pick up chopsticks and say that I should die at the same time.
