food culture and customs.
First, you cannot insert chopsticks into a bowl filled with rice when eating. Especially if you have an elderly person in your family who is 70 or 80 years old, you are absolutely not allowed to insert chopsticks into a bowl filled with rice.
This is because in the early years, offerings were made after a death in the family. Among them, "pouring rice" meant inserting chopsticks into a bowl filled with rice.
It is the greatest disrespect to the elderly at home if you insert your chopsticks into the bowl of rice.
Second, after eating the rice, the bowl should be clean. There should be no remaining rice grains stuck to the bowl. Older generations often tell young people that if rice grains stick to the bowl, they will marry a pockmarked wife in the future.
In fact, it is to warn young people to develop good habits of cherishing food and being diligent and thrifty.
Third, when you don't have enough rice, you can't say "begging for rice" or "ask for another bowl." Instead, say "for another bowl" or "for another bowl." Because in the past, old Beijingers called beggars on the street "beggars."

Fourth, you can't squeak when eating, and you can't make any noise when drinking soup. You should drink it gently with a spoon, and you can't pick up the bowl and drink in big mouths. If the sound is too loud, it will be regarded as disrespectful and disrespectful to the person eating next to you.

Fifth, you are not allowed to use chopsticks to knock on the rice bowl. When the food is not brought to the table, the children must sit quietly at the table and wait.

Sixth, you should not chat while eating. Nowadays, people mostly chat while eating, but in the past, old Beijingers believed in "eating without talking" and "eating without talking". Especially when large families sit together to eat, they are not allowed to talk casually.
Especially for children, eating is eating. If anyone talks casually while eating, the mild one will be scolded by the adults, and the serious ones will be hit twice with chopsticks by the adults.
Seventh, you cannot change seats casually when eating. Wherever you sit at the beginning, you will continue to sit there. You cannot hold the rice bowl and sit here and there.
Because only beggars on the street beg from one house after another, constantly changing their "positions."
Eighth, when eating, if someone accidentally loses his hand and breaks his rice bowl, plate, etc., he should quickly say "Bear in pieces (Sui Sui)" to ease the atmosphere so that the person who missed it will not be embarrassed.
