153. Then let's talk about gift-giving

"In fact, the gift-giving culture has a very long history in our country, no way, who made our history very long~

In fact, in the pre-Qin period, our country had the etiquette of meeting people with gifts.

For example, one of the thirteen classics of Confucianism, "Etiquette", has a description: When a scholar meets a scholar for the first time, he must bring 贽 (zhi). ”

Feng Hao also asked the director to type this word on the whiteboard behind him very intimately.

"I'll go, if he doesn't pronounce this word, I don't even know how to pronounce it."

"At first, I thought the host was talking about moles, and what do you mean by having moles, can't you meet without moles?"

Hahaha, this man's words also amused the people around him.

Feng Hao swallowed his saliva and said slowly:

"So what is a reel?

That is, the gift of meeting, if the host says thank you, and says: Come and come, what are you doing with it?

Then the guest has to answer, 'I dare not see the Venerable One,' which translates to 'How can you dare to come to see the person you respect without a gift?' ’

Translated again, my brother also talks about noodles, if I come empty-handed, will I let Tiezi look down on me? ”

Hahaha, the audience laughed unusually well.

Some people don't get into the mood, and some people don't think it's funny.

Yang Crooked in the background is a little worried, is this attempt to export culture a bit risky?

After all, the model of the first issue is fine, and it should be copied...

I don't know if he was affected by the bad comments on the Internet...

Feng Hao continued unhurriedly: "From this, it can be concluded that in that period, gifts between colleagues were already common, but what exactly should be given?

"Etiquette" also recorded that Shi A visited Shi B, and the gift he brought was a pheasant, and the pheasant here was a kind of pheasant, In addition, according to the record of "Zhou Li Chun Guan", at that time, the gift between friends was to give wild ducks, so at that time, the ancients visited the door, and really achieved a chicken in the left hand and a duck in the right hand. ”

The audience couldn't help but sing along:

A chicken in the left hand and a duck in the right hand

There's a fat doll on my back

Babbling babbling and feeding

Hahaha!

The atmosphere became very lively.

Feng Hao also looked relaxed: "Shi chose pheasant as a gift, not because it is an Internet celebrity food that can make soup, or nourishing the lungs and aphrodisiac." But because the ancients believed that pheasants, when they were about to be caught, they would quickly commit suicide, so they used pheasants as a greeting gift to remind each other that as a soldier, you should keep the festival and die! ”

To be honest, the effect of this paragraph is not very good, mainly because there was a cub just now, and now there is another pheasant, and the audience is stupid and can't tell the difference.

Feng Hao also felt that the reaction at the scene was a little cold, but he couldn't panic, if he panicked, it would be all over.

"What's interesting is that after a few days, Shi Yi will visit Shi A and will send this pheasant back, which means, I can't accept your gift for no reason, let outsiders see that we have no interest exchange, so I returned the pheasant, this is the famous sentence: "Etiquette is still exchanged, come but not exchange, incivility; It is not polite to come and go". ”

Feng Hao deliberately accelerated the pace of this passage, and then led to the next sentence:

In fact, our modern colleague relationship has also been implementing this sentence, for example, when a colleague gets married, you will use a red envelope to give a gift, and when you get married, a colleague will also use a red envelope to return the gift, of course, if it is Brother Wang, who has not been able to find a partner, giving a red envelope is equivalent to paying a single tax. ”

Hahaha! The audience looked at Wang Zijian in the front row

Wang Zijian, who was cue, was also confused, staring at himself with wide eyes as if to say, "Are you talking about me?" ”

Song Wenhong and Yang Crooked did not sit in the audience today, Song Wenhong has a good impression of this model of cultural output, but Yang Crooked is a little worried, after all, this model is too academic, and people are too impetuous nowadays to listen to it.

Feng Hao smiled at Wang Zijian and continued:

"In ancient times, not only colleagues and colleagues gave gifts to each other, but also subordinates often had to give gifts to their superiors, because there must be a problem in the middle of asking people to do things and conveying benefits, so what to give and how to send, gradually formed their own set of behavioral logic, so some people say that gift-giving is an art, and friends who have studied art know that art is quite expensive."

Hahaha!

The audience, who were about to listen, didn't expect this twist and fell out laughing instantly.

"Hahaha!"

"Teacher Feng, you're too funny, aren't you?"

"I didn't expect this stalk to appear here."

Feng Hao's left little thumb shook, and the backstage staff immediately understood and played a melodious background music.

Feng Hao said leisurely:

"For example, in the Qing Dynasty, there was a book "Chunming Dream Record" that recorded that in the Qing Dynasty, every year the magistrate would send ice to the Beijing official in the summer, and in the winter, he would also send charcoal to the official, to put it bluntly, it was to send money.

But at that time, there was no bank card and could not send red envelopes on WeChat, so everyone thought of a way, that is, to put the silver ticket in the envelope, in order to mark the gold content of the letter, the magistrate thought of an obscure and elegant method, such as the number of Dayan written on the envelope. ”

Feng Hao suddenly looked at the audience: "Does anyone know how much Dayan is?" ”

The audience stared at each other, you look at me, I look at you, and they are silent.

"Hey! You guys are more uneducated than me, a talk show actor. ”

"Hahaha!" The audience was amused by Feng Hao's wave of self-deprecation.

Completely forgetting that he is the protagonist who is offended.

Feng Hao shrugged his shoulders: "Dayan is that there are fifty taels of silver tickets here." The word "number of Dayan" comes from "Zhou Yi": the number of Dayan is fifty, and it is used for forty and nine,

Similarly, if you write a Qinguan, Qinguan is one hundred and twenty zhang high, which means that there are one hundred and twenty taels of silver tickets in it. ”

"Wow! Teacher Feng knows a lot! ”

"I admire Teacher Feng, I wish I had such erudition and talent."

"Teacher Feng is awesome plus!"

"Call Teacher Feng!"

Feng Hao waved his hand, indicating that this section was not over.

"In fact, there are some like our couples giving out red envelopes, such as boyfriends who write I love you on the red envelope, the red envelope is 520 yuan, if you write a lifetime, the red envelope is 1314 yuan.

Of course, there are exceptions, such as sending a red envelope to my girlfriend on Valentine's Day, saying: This means that I am wholeheartedly devoted to you, but my girlfriend sent a red envelope of 1 cent and said to him, which means that I am 10 points satisfied with you!

"Haha! Damn, it's not a dog brother! It's a real dog! ”

"It's good to have a dime, otherwise we won't pull out a dime."

"I don't think I should have a hair, I should pay him back ten corners, give him ten feet to calm down!"

The lesbians seem to have complained about this passage.
