Because I'm sorry, so! Min Shigong was very patient.

Seeing that Le Ge asked, he smiled and said, "Zhou Li is Zhou Li!" The weekly ceremony is stipulated! How to eat in the Son of Heaven, dining standards, dining etiquette and procedures! Kings also have kingly rules, which cannot be overcome! And to the nobleman's house! It's different again! The standards of the aristocratic family must not be higher than that of the king. And so on! Hehehe! ”

"So? Where are you eating? When? Lege asked.

"We? Hehehe! Min Shigong smiled bitterly: "We? The old me! It's aristocrats! When I was teaching in Qufu City, I was very gentlemanly! ”

"What sir?" Lege asked.

Confucius was also curious, stopped eating, and looked at Mr. Min Shigong Min, waiting for the following.

"What sir? It's a serious gentleman! We are a school though! But we're a public school! It is a school funded by Lu State! So! There are men in it who serve us gentlemen. When we eat, we sit in front of the desk, served by the servants, procedurally! It's about the same as a king and a nobleman! But in terms of dishes, you can't have more than five dishes! Four dishes and one soup ......"

"Four dishes and one soup?" Lege asked in surprise.

"Let's say! Say! Min Shigong explained: "It means that in terms of quantity, there must be no more than four!" It doesn't matter what you're eating! Do you understand? It's four in number! And! Can't be wasted! Finish eating! If you can't finish eating, you can let your subordinates eat it! ……”

"Oh?" Lege pretended to understand very well and let out an "oh".

Confucius listened attentively and nodded from time to time.

"People in the world often have misunderstandings about Zhou Li! Where is the misunderstanding? Misunderstanding in the hierarchy! ......" Min Shigong stopped eating and continued to explain.

"Hierarchy? What is a hierarchy? Lege asked.

In fact! He is teasing Min Shigong to play. He asked while eating, listening, and asking. Instead, if Min Shigong wants to preach the scriptures, he has to stop eating.

This is not! I'm teasing you, just to make you talk, not to eat!

"Didn't I just say that? There are hierarchies for weekly rites! The Son of Heaven has the rank standard of the Son of Heaven! Kings have a hierarchy of kings. There are nobles, there are noble hierarchical standards! When you go to the taxi, you have your own level standards! Do you understand? Songs! To the civilian side! There is a standard ...... for the common people"

"So? What about our standards? Le Ge asked.

"You're just standing in the kitchen and eating?" Min Shigong said seriously.

Seeing that Le Ge didn't seem to understand, he couldn't help laughing.

"Hehehe!"

"Sir!" Confucius looked at Min Shigong and responded.

"And we! If you measure it by the standards of the Son of Heaven, kings, nobles, and scholars, then! We're going to break the Weekly Rites today! No! It's just that it doesn't meet the standards set by the weekly rites! Isn't it? Am I a nobleman? Isn't it? Your brother-in-law Kong Qiu is a scholar! It's an official of the country of Lu! How can you stand in the kitchen and eat? Isn't it? ”

"This?"

"So! The world doesn't know about Zhou Li! Therefore, I think that everything in others is not in line with Zhou etiquette! Isn't it? In fact! As long as we stand on the actual needs of life, we can correctly understand the relevant regulations of the weekly rite and the weekly system!

What if we don't eat in the kitchen? Let's take the food to the table. You can also follow the example of the Son of Heaven and the nobles, and let a few students come and serve us! Let's pretend to compare! Loading ratio! Isn't that what you often say? ”

"Loading ratio? Pretending to be more than you have learned? Lege asked incredulously.

The word pretending, he often mentions it in front of Yan Lu, saying that this is pretending! Outcome! Yan Lu was interrogated by Min Shigong and relayed his words to Min Shigong. When Min Shigong listened, he understood what it meant to be "pretending to be better".

"Eat! Eat! Mr! If you don't eat it, it'll be cold! After eating, let's give us a lecture again! Confucius played a round game.

"Good!" Min Shigong nodded and said, "According to the rules of Zhou Li!" When eating, you are not allowed to speak. But! Not absolutely! For example! Where can you not speak at a banquet? Isn't it?

The so-called food and sleep without saying anything means not talking nonsense. Or! Don't get down to business! For example, discuss, discuss, and spread something! Serious things, wait until you're done. Very serious things, don't say it while sleeping. It should be said before going to bed, or after going to bed. To sleep is to sleep, to rest! That's what it means!

How can you not speak when you are entertaining guests? Isn't it? Kind words, right? The host said a kind word, and the guest wants to thank him? Where can you not speak?

And also! When the guests have eaten the food, they naturally want to ask the host, what is the name of this food? Isn't it? On the surface, it is an inquiry, but in fact it is flattery! Compliments on the good food of the hosts. And what about the hosts! I'm going to explain what kind of dish it is! Or! Let the chef come and interpret it.

So! When eating, you can talk! Hehehe! ”

In the past, Confucius also interpreted that food is silent and sleep is silent. Min Shigong and Confucius both have the same interpretation: when they eat and sleep, they both have to speak. It's just that! No nonsense! Don't get down to business!

Between husband and wife, can you sleep at night without talking? Can't snap yet? Isn't it?

In later generations, there were many people who only interpreted it literally, using "food without speech, sleep without speaking" to prevent others from speaking.

Min Shigong tonight, why do you interpret it like this? Because! He spoke while eating. And! Delayed eating. Outcome! The food in the bowl was cold.

Until now! He hadn't remembered yet: Lege was teasing him, deliberately teasing him and making him talk. Just as he was talking, Le Ge ate two bowls in one go.

What was left in the pot just now doesn't seem to be much, in fact! I can't hold two bowls.

You say! I eat!

That's what Lege means!

Lege ate two bowls, and when he saw that there was still one on the side of the pot, he scraped it down. Outcome! I made do with a small half bowl again!

After Min Shigong and Confucius finished eating, they came out of the kitchen and sat in the living room to talk. As is customary, classes are held in the evenings!

The evening was the time when Confucius and Min Shigong learned Zhou etiquette. Besides! Confucius also had to give lessons to Qi Guanshi and Yan Lu.

After Lege finished eating, he didn't clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and he came out.

He suddenly felt: Min Shigong is not so old-fashioned and nerdy! This man may be like him, pretending!

Since you can understand the meaning of pretending, you should also know the pretending ratio!

"Yan Lu! Come here! Brush the dishes! Wash the pot! Le Ge came out and called Yan Lu in.

Don't know what's going on? The relationship between Yan Lu and Da Niu is very good. Until now, the two of them were still chattering from the eaves outside?

It's true! Why is there so much nonsense? I can't say enough!

Lege was very worried: Yan Lu and Da Niu colluded and sold him! Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Confucius Scumbag Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
