There is a big difference between Chinese people drinking and foreigners. Foreigners drink according to their mood, but Chinese people drink with peanuts, beautiful women, and fist pumps. No matter what mood you are in, if you are in a bad mood, just punch twice and it will be enough. If it still doesn't work, just punch again. Therefore, punching on the wine table, drinking orders, and small games have become small skills that people must master. Although it is not said that one can reach the pinnacle of life and marry Bai Fumei after learning, but it is at least possible to make people treat her differently.
I have always considered myself to be a master of games, including boxing, drinking orders and so on. But after reading these two stories, I instantly felt like I was so low! Then let’s see what the story is!
Xu Changwen Qin Shihuang annexed the six kingdoms
Xu Wenchang had been very intelligent since he was a child. One day, he had dinner and drank with six literati.
The six literati had planned to tease him in advance, and under their arrangement, six dishes were placed on the table. Since Xu Wenchang was the youngest, they asked for drinking orders based on age. Each drink order must tell an allusion and be related to the dish on the table, and then you can eat the dish, otherwise there will be no food.
The oldest one said: Jiang Taigong was fishing. After saying that, he brought the braised fish in front of him.
The second person said: Shi Qian stole the chicken. After that, he took the chicken away.
The third person said: Zhang Fei sells meat. Then take away the pork.
The fourth person then said: Su Wu Muyang. Then the mutton was served.
The fifth person said: Zhu Yuanzhang killed the cow. As soon as he finished speaking, the beef was taken away.
Seeing that there was only one plate of green rice left on the table.
The sixth person said: Liu Bei grows rice. I also took away the vegetables.
At this time, the table was empty, Xu Wenchang said loudly. Qin Shihuang annexed the six countries! Six plates of food were carried over at once. The other literati were stunned for a moment, and then they all kept talking. admire! admire!
Xu said that in his later years he was poor and lacked food and clothing. One day, I had just gritted my teeth and bought two taels of rice wine. Before I could satisfy my greed, three friends came to visit. Among the three friends, there is a scholar, a monk, and a doctor. At noon, guests are invited to have dinner. Seeing that there was little wine, they decided to make a drinking order and the winner would drink. It is stipulated that each sentence in the "order" must be embedded with the words "heaven, earth, left and right, front and back., three, four.", etc. The last word of the last sentence must be "heart", homophonic words can be used. It is also required that the wine order points should clearly indicate the identity of the person who makes the order. Identity.
The scholar is the first to write the order. He is the first scholar in the imperial examination and the second place in the ranking. He is famous all over the world for his three articles.
The monk followed closely and made the order. There is heaven above and hell below. The Bodhisattva Vajra is on the left and the Vajra is on the right. Avalokitesvara is on the front and behind, with three sticks of fragrance, kneeling on four sides and eight bows, with sincerity.
Slowly give the order: Tianmendong, Digupi, left sapison and right nepeta, three pieces of ginger from the front (back), red dates, and a wick (heart)
Xu Wei thought for a moment, and then The order said: There is no tile in the sky, no earth on the ground, no door on the left and right, no shelter behind the wall, and three ounces of rice wine, how can the four of them tolerate it!
Xu Wei's order came out. After that, the four of them looked at each other, laughed, and decided to let Xu drink it by himself.
