The lotus has bloomed and is still full

Shan Situ had selected almost all the officials and made no mistakes in his selections. All the topics are as they say. Only Lu Liang was employed, as he was appointed by the imperial edict, and his opinion was different from yours, so you argued against it and refused to follow his advice. Liang also failed in his attempt to take bribes.

Mr. Li, your wife got first place again

When Yin Zhongkan was the governor of Jingzhou, there was a flood season and he usually ate only five bowls of food, with no other dishes. When rice grains fell on the plate or table, he would pick them up and eat them. Although we want to lead things, we must do so according to their true nature. I always tell my children, "Don't think that I am giving up my former ambitions because I have been appointed to a provincial post. It is not easy for me to be in this position now. Poverty is the norm for scholars. How can I climb the branch and abandon my roots? You should save it!"

My job is to spend money

Xu Yuan once visited Jianwen. It was a windy and calm night with a bright moon, so they composed music and talked in the room. Expressing one’s inner thoughts is Xu’s forte. The words are clear and graceful, more than usual. Although Jianwen and he had always been in sync, this encounter was even more regrettable. Unconsciously they knelt down and spoke with their hands, and the conversation lasted until almost dawn. Then he said: "Xuan Du has great talent and sentiment, so it is not easy to give him many compliments."

The Devil President found me

Someone asked: "Why do those who wear a cap not bare their flesh?" The answer is: The cap is the highest honor, and it is not suitable for the body to bare flesh, so it is replaced by stripping.

President Gu's tricks are deep

The evil

When serving food to a gentleman, eat first and then stop; do not leave the food or drink it fluently; eat small portions and quickly; do not eat too much. The guest should drink by himself and stop when he says goodbye. The guest's cup should be on the left, and his drink should be on the left. Right; the jiejue, zujue, and xujue are all on the right. When offering fish, the tail is served; in winter, the fat is served on the right, and in summer, the fin is served on the right; when offering meat. In all cases, hold it with the right and place it on the left. Offer money from the left, and edict from the right. Servant of the corpse is like servant of the king. When in the car, hold the reins with the left and receive the jug with the right, and drink from the left and right. When offering sacrifices, offer sacrifices inside the sacrificial table. Gentlemen do not eat meat. Young men walk but do not rush, and when offering, sit down and drink when offering. When washing, wash your hands. Lungs of cattle and sheep , leaving without lifting the heart. All the dishes with scallions are not to be taken together. Choosing onions and scallions for a gentleman cuts off the root and the end. For the dish head, offer the beak to the ear. The left of the drinker is the highest dish. The pottery is facing the nose. Drinkers, those who worship, and those who offer sacrifices have to break the table and not sit down. Before stepping into the cup, do not taste the dishes. The fishy smell of cattle, sheep, and fish is cut into sashimi; elk is pickled, wild boar is xuan, all of which are cut and not cut; deer is made into piji, rabbit is made into wanpi, all of which are cut and not cut. Cut the onion into pieces like scallions, and put them in a sauce to soften them. If there is a person who breaks the table, take the sacrificial lungs, turn them over, and do not sit; the same is true for burning. For corpses, sit.
