If you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you. There is a saying from the ancestors, and there is a truth in the end.
So what does the folk "four do not touch" refer to?
Cook's knife
The first reaction is that the chef's knife is a tool for stable food and clothing, how the knife is worked, how the knife is sharpened, and the taste of the single product made by the chef is also different.
In addition, in ancient times, knives were not cheap, and cooks relied on borrowing knives to fill food and clothing every day, so this knives were particularly precious to cooks.
Learn the craft everywhere, hone the knife work, even if you have seen too many knives, the knife pinned to the chef's waist is the most precious, so the chef's knife is not easy for people to touch.
It has always been said that if a stranger touches this knife, it will be bad luck for a chef's career, after all, in the chef's opinion, it is not easy to complete the grinding with a knife.
In addition, the chef's career has grown, and the knife has been given the meaning of "heirloom", which has been passed down from generation to generation.
Taking a step back, this knife is a sharp weapon after all, in case of scratches and bleeding, and the cook's knife is also a cooking tool, in order to ensure that the "food is not poisoned", this knife cannot be touched.
And after saying that, the cook's knife is the girl's waist.
The girl's waist
First of all, the girl's waist is a sensitive part, and under the former feudal social system, the concept of women is much more than the side, and the guests at home, the woman needs a screen in front of the woman, and to a certain extent, the ancient women's clothing is also more exquisite.
And the woman is also under the tutor, and she is more concerned about the protection of the sensitive waist. If a woman's waist is touched by others, it will be regarded as a violation of women's dignity and personal rights, and it will affect women's reputation.
When you go out, abide by morality, respect women's personal wishes, and maintain a sense of boundaries with women, no matter what the circumstances.
The cook's knife, the girl's waist, and then the carpenter's axe.
A carpenter's axe
In fact, a carpenter's axe is similar to a cook's knife.
This axe is a carpenter's tool to maintain food and clothing, and it is not easy for the axe and the carpenter to complete the run-in, so from this point alone, the carpenter's axe is untouchable.
In addition, the name of this axe in the folk is the first of the "Eight Great Craftsmen", and this folk legend says that this axe was invented by Lu Ban, so it also unexpectedly made the name of this axe particularly prestigious among the people.
It is also because of this that the name of the carpenter is spread among the people, and there is even a saying that no one owes money to the carpenter.
And the implication is that this carpenter can't be messed with.
In addition, the carpenter's axe cannot be touched, and another reason is that although the axe is not as good as touching the cook's knife, it is thought that it will ruin the career.
In the carpenter's view, this increases the risk of mistakes in the woodcarving process.
In short, the carpenter's axe is not to be touched.
The cook's knife, the girl's waist, the carpenter's axe, and finally the "baggage of a bachelor".
Singles' luggage
And the luggage of this "single" actually refers mainly to a kind of pronoun.
The main thing is to tell the outside world to learn to respect other people's belongings and protect the rights and interests of others, and if you treat other people's belongings at will, it will cause a series of moral problems and legal problems.
Respecting other people's belongings, respecting each other, not touching other people's personal belongings, but also setting a boundary rule for others, respecting and helping each other, is the meaning of this way of not touching the "singles' luggage".
The cook's knife, the girl's waist, the carpenter's axe, and the bachelor's luggage, even though they are passed down from folk to folk, have their own truth.
