Loose food, Confucius, Confucianism.
Confucius was a Confucian sage, but in his time there was a shortage of ingredients. And Confucius's sparse food and drinking water also came from the "Analects of Confucius", he did two things in his life, one was to travel around the world, to persuade the monarchs of the vassal states to listen to his restoration of ritual and music civilization, but the result was a fiasco. Another thing is that the recruitment of disciples breaks the restrictions of learning in the government. You don't have to be a nobleman to study, and you have to pay a lot of hardship. In the end, it was a success. For Confucius, he had high requirements for food, because he himself was also from the aristocracy.
Confucius believed that grain should not be too finely cooked, and fish and meat slices should not be finely cut, otherwise it would be difficult to digest. The grain is rotten and smelly, and the fish and meat are rotten, so don't eat it, otherwise you will eat it and your stomach will be spoiled and your intestines will be infected. The color of the food is ugly, the smell is unpleasant, the cooking is not improper, and the meat that is not cut according to a certain method is not eaten, and it is not eaten when it is time to eat, but it hurts the body. Confucianism pays the most attention to the rules, there is no certain seasoning, and the sauce and vinegar are not delicious. Although there is a lot of meat on the table, the meat eaten does not exceed the staple food, and the main and secondary foods are clear.
There are also some things that Yan Hui misunderstood during the previous meal. Confucius also sighed and said that you should believe what your eyes see, but your eyes are not necessarily credible, you should trust your heart, but your heart is not completely credible. So remember, it's not easy to get to know people.
Meat, Qu Yuan, Chu customs.
Qu Yuan is a patriotic poet, and he would rather be a broken jade than a complete tile. He immersed himself in the Chu culture with a strong romantic temperament, "Drinking Mulan in the morning and dew, and eating autumn chrysanthemum in the evening." Gou Yu loves his letter to practice, and his long jaw does not hurt. This means that in the morning I drink the dew drops on the magnolia, and in the evening I feed my hunger with the remnants of the chrysanthemum. As long as my love is unswerving, what does it matter?"
