Are chopsticks placed horizontally or vertically after meals?

In China, when you stop eating at a banquet, you can put chopsticks directly on the plate or spoon. Putting chopsticks horizontally on the plate means that you are full and don't eat, but you don't clean up the dishes, which means "people don't accompany you to get chopsticks." The horizontal chopsticks ceremony is generally used between peers or close friends. In order to show respect for the elderly, the younger generation must wait for the elderly to cross chopsticks before they can follow suit.

Precautions for using chopsticks:

Don't look for prey in dishes with chopsticks in your hand, just like the general practice of robbing tombs and digging graves, which is similar to "visiting the city", which is neither cultural nor interesting. Don't knock on the cup. This behavior is regarded as a beggar begging. Its practice is to knock on the plates and bowls with chopsticks while eating. Because in the past, only beggars hit the begging bowl with chopsticks, and the sound accompanied by the cry in their mouths would attract the attention of pedestrians and give alms. This practice is considered extremely despicable and despised by others.
