Allusions to the state of Chinese etiquette

Examples of allusions in China's etiquette country are as follows:

Chapter One: Modesty and Politeness

During the Spring and Autumn Period, Confucius and his students traveled around the world to publicize their political opinions.

One day, they drove to the state of Jin. A child was playing with rubble tiles in the middle of the road, blocking their way. Confucius said, "You shouldn't play in the middle of the road and block our car!" " . The child pointed to the ground and said, "Grandpa, what do you think this is?" The first thing Confucius saw was a city made of rubble bricks. The child added, "Do you think the city gives way to the car or the car gives way to the city?" Confucius was puzzled. Confucius thought the child was very polite and asked, "What's your name? How old are you? " The child said, "My name is Xiang Tuo, and I am 7 years old!" Confucius said to his students, "Xiang Tuo knew etiquette at the age of seven. He can be my teacher! "

Chapter II: Respecting the old and loving the young.

The ancients said: "I am old, and people are old; Young, young, young people. " We should not only honor our parents, but also respect other old people, care for young children, and create an honest folk custom of respecting the old and loving the young in the whole society. This is the responsibility of our students in the new era. Luz was a native of Lu at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period. He is famous for his political affairs among Confucius disciples. Especially famous for being brave. However, when Luz was young, his family was very poor, and he lived by eating coarse grains and wild vegetables for many years.

Once, my elderly parents wanted to eat rice, but there was no rice at home. What should I do? Lutz thought, if he climbed several mountains and borrowed some rice from relatives, wouldn't he be able to meet his parents' requirements?

As a result, Xiaozi walked more than ten miles across the mountains and returned a small bag of rice from his relatives' home. Seeing that his parents ate delicious rice, Luz forgot his fatigue. The neighbors all praised Luz as a brave and filial child.
