The dishes are all the same, but they are served in several pots.

Confucius, Lege, Qi Guan, Wolf Sister, Wei'er and the children eat in a vegetable pot and are an independent team.

Zilu only came today and was considered a guest, so he also ate in this team.

Yan Lu, Zeng Dian, Ran Boniu and others substitute teachers, another team.

Kong Carp was afraid of his father, so he didn't have a fixed position. Sometimes he eats at his father's place, and sometimes he goes to Yan Lu, Zeng Dian and others to eat food. Anyway! He is a mobile division, and he will go wherever there are few people.

Everyone is very conscious and does not occupy the food. On the side of Confucius's family, the number of people is basically fixed, and if Confucius does not eat at home, there is one less person.

On the substitute teacher's side, there is a lot of mobility. Sometimes there are many people, sometimes there are few people. When there are many people, there are not enough dishes to eat. When there are fewer people, there are more dishes. Anyway! Qi Guan's family cooks and eats according to the normal situation every day.

Only when the most distinguished guests came, the Qi Guan's family opened another small stove, and the dishes were different from everyone's dishes. Every now and then! Confucius generally received guests alone. The seat is still in the living room, but! Others didn't make it.

In the past, when Min Shigong was here, Min Shigong sat in chief.

In the past, Lege didn't have the opportunity to participate. Qi Guan's family and wolf sister are women, and they can only serve on one side, and it is impossible to sit on the seat.

Every now and then! Wolf Sister, Qi Guan's family, Kong Li, and others can only stand aside like substitute teachers.

Before that! None of them will be seated! The dishes are not brought to the living room, but are placed on the kitchen board or on the edge of the stove, and they will be eaten.

Later not? There are too many substitute teachers, and the kitchen is too small to accommodate the transfer to the living room.

Most of these substitute teachers are drawn from among the students, so! There is some reverence for Confucius. Being able to be a substitute teacher, that's really worthy of you! How nice it is to get your tuition free and take care of your food!

To know! This is a troubled time, and it is lucky to be able to have food and live. Isn't it?

While eating, Zilu felt that he was eating with Confucius, Lege, and Shiniang, as if he shouldn't be.

Oh, yes! Everyone is eating on the side, me? How can I eat with my husband?

Come to think of it! He took the bowl and went to Yan Lu and Zeng Dian. Squatted down to the side of the pot and ate it.

Since he is only an adult and a hunter, he is very edible. That eating appearance is very indecent.

Yan Lu and the others saw Zilu coming, and they all poured some vegetables into the bowl from the vegetable basin one by one, and then squatted aside.

"What are you doing?" Zilu suddenly didn't understand, and looked at everyone stupidly.

What do you think? Is it a bully? Or look down on people?

Still is? Afraid I'll hit you? Avoiding me one by one?

When Confucius saw the appearance of that honest man in Zilu, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly. And then! Nodding at the sub-road that had come over.

"Sir?" Zilu asked puzzled.

"Come here! You're the first time today, you're a guest. Seeing that Zilu was embarrassed, Le Ge quickly explained.

"Me?" Zilu wanted to say, didn't I think it was inappropriate for me to eat with my husband? That's just how I came. Where did you think they were hiding from me?

"Usually eat at this time! Generally, it is divided into two pots. There is a pot here, and the Confucius family and my family eat together. What about them! It is usually eaten in another pot! Hole carp! He is flexible and mobile. Sometimes here, sometimes there! Where there are fewer people, on which side. ”

Seeing that he was mentioned, Kong Li looked at Zilu and nodded.

"Oh?"

"You just came today, you're a guest. So! Is there anything wrong with having dinner with your husband? And later! When there are few people here, sir, you can also come over and pick up vegetables? Everyone can come and eat food. ”

"Oh?"

"You have to ask? How do they hide from you? In fact! They didn't hide from you. Isn't it? You've squatted down to the side of the pot, and everyone is out of the way for your convenience! Nothing else. ”

"Oh?" Zilu answered again.

"Hey, hey!" That's it! Zeng Dian couldn't help but snicker quietly.

"Hey, hey!" Yan Lu couldn't help but snicker when he heard this.

Zeng Dian and Yan Lu are both old people in the school, and they have been the longest. So! They're a little more casual.

No one else is as early as the two of them, so! It's all a bit more reserved.

Confucius didn't want to speak, but it was obvious that Le Ge said it, so he had to continue talking.

With the help of vivid examples, it is also more effective to be trained.

Originally! He and Min Shigong's principle is to eat and sleep.

Try not to talk when eating, and concentrate on eating. When you go to bed, you should sleep, and don't talk about anything, so as not to affect your mood and affect the quality of sleep. What can't we put to tomorrow? What's the use of talking and discussing in the evening?

"Zhou Li said that you can't speak loudly when eating, if you have anything to say, wait until you have eaten! When it's time to sleep! Generally, there is no longer any discussion about anything, so as not to affect sleep. But! In real life, it's not absolute! Don't generalize!

For example! Eat well! On the side of the Son of Heaven and the king, there are different particularities, and the number of dishes is richer. There are strict rules on the weekly ceremony, what are the dishes of the Son of Heaven? No more, no less.

The king's dishes were also regulated, and they could not exceed the standards of the Son of Heaven. But! In this society now, the Son of Heaven is very thrifty, but the King is becoming more and more extravagant.

Don't talk about that! Let's say now!

According to the rules of the week! We need to have a seat. But realistically! We don't have a seat! We're gentlemen! Where can you eat like this? Isn't it? We are gentlemen, and we want Svenwen. Isn't it? ”

Seeing that Confucius had spoken, everyone stopped eating, looked at the gentleman, and listened attentively.

Since Min Shigong left, Confucius has been a gentleman. When Min Shigong was there, he sat in the chief seat, and sat in the seat where Confucius is now sitting. Confucius respected him as a teacher and learned etiquette from him, so he naturally wanted to put him in the chief position.

"The rules on the weekly rites are an approximate standard, not an absolute standard. It's not the same, it's just a box. As long as we don't go beyond this box, within the approximate limit, it's okay!

For example! The scene of us eating. If we eat according to the rules of Zhou Li, according to the standards of the gentleman, then? We haven't been able to eat this meal yet? If you can't meet the standard of Mr. Dinner, I won't eat this meal, do you treat me as a gentleman? ……”

"Hey, hey, hey!" Zeng Dian, Yan Lu and others all snickered when they heard this.

"If you don't give me a table, if you don't give me a seat, if you don't treat me as a gentleman, I won't eat! Even! I'm not teaching this book anymore! Confucius said very seriously.

After glancing at everyone, Confucius continued, "In my school, where are there so many cases? Where is there such a spacious place to put a case? If you are so particular, then! I can't eat this meal! So! As long as we are within the approximate range, we are not overstepped! It's okay to have a low standard, but it's too much to go a high standard. Isn't it? ”
