The wisdom of the ancient ancestors was infinite, they had a wealth of creativity and imagination, and with their own hands, they created countless objects that still seem to be desirable today.
At the same time, we often lament the wisdom of the ancients, and the text summarizes many complex expressions in a short and precise manner. There are also idioms, poems and other literary arts, so that the text is full of poetic texture.
But in ancient times, poetry and song were only learned by large families, and the cost of learning was expensive, forcing many poor people who had been farming for generations to not know the words.
But this did not prevent them from having a particular literary approach, less elegant and charming, full of wisdom of working people, inventing a more simple image of the colloquialism, used to express the phenomenon or beautiful vision of life.
This sentence "Good men have hair and do not whip spring, and good women have fat and do not look at the lamp" is a widely spread saying, which expresses the evaluation criteria of the working people for good men and good women in that era.

A colloquialism is a sentence that has been conventionally established and has a certain degree of circulation. Most of them reflect the experience accumulated by working people in working life and the vision of a better life.
Like everyone knows, "planting melons to get melons, planting beans to get beans" not only shows the fact that crops grow, but also can extend a certain causal significance accordingly.
Because it was created by the masses, it was more colloquial and did not have too specific written expressions. Compared with poetry and song, it is more popular, and in the life of labor, it is a way to increase interest.
While taking into account the nature of popular colloquialism, colloquialisms also take into account a certain degree of inspiration, but also without losing the beauty of language.
Sentences with certain literary overtones, such as "frozen three feet, not a day's cold", "soldiers will block, water will cover", and sentences with a certain literary color, are also an important part of the colloquialism.
The sentence in the title reflects people's expectations for good men and women, hoping that they will become.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="45" > the standard for good men and women</h1>
An important criterion for strong men in ancient times is the amount of body hair on the body, and men with thick hair will give people a feeling of being strong and strong, and the feudal society dominated by the agricultural economy will naturally favor such men.
The "whip spring" is a custom spread in the folk countryside, before the spring, the laborers will use paper to tie a spring cow, which is filled with grain, after the spring ceremony, use the whip to whip the paper cow, the grain spilled from the belly, to herald a good harvest, as a good omen.
The man who whipped the spring cow, because he was closest to the spring cow, was often able to grab more grain. But this kind of behavior seems to be a bit "bargaining" in the eyes of most people.
Therefore, although this matter is a beautiful difference, the ancients believed that the really high-quality men would not go to the scramble for this little bit of small profit, which also showed the preference for men with solid families.
Therefore, the high-quality men that the ancients thought were the kind of men with strong hair, strong bodies, and a good family, which was very different from the small people in the city.
The criteria for judging quality women are even more different from those now. The ancients did not pursue slim body in the extreme, as they do now, but believed that a plump and solid woman was more suitable for a family.
On the one hand, a stronger woman can help the family to do work and supplement the family to improve the "male farming and female weaving" labor model.
On the other hand, it is because in ancient times, passing on the generations was the most important thing for newlyweds. "No filial piety has three, no queen is greater", if there is no heir, it was a very serious sin at that time, and many people divorced their wives because of this.
Regardless of the family's situation, the children and grandchildren are the expectations of each family. And women who are too slender have a lower probability of conception, and giving birth to a child is closed from the ghost door, the thinner it is, the more dangerous it is.
In this way, the ancient nature of the pursuit of women to fat beauty, in the final analysis, is only that fat women look more blessed, but also better breeding. Therefore, "fat" women are also more popular.
"Don't look at the lamp" is a requirement from the shackles of etiquette, as we all know, "looking at the flower lantern on the fifteenth day of the first month" is a popular activity project today, which is a traditional folk custom handed down from ancient times.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, men and women go to the streets together to watch all kinds of different flower lanterns, enjoy the lanterns and guess the puzzles, and under the background of the lively atmosphere, there are countless men and women who have feelings for each other, and they are identified as lifelong events at this grand event.
In ancient times, when women were strictly bound, this kind of behavior of seeking a husband on the street was regarded as prodigal, unruly, and unruly. Therefore, the ancients believed that a really good woman would not go to the street to see the lights in order to find her husband.
It can be seen that the requirements for women are to be able to work, have good children, and abide by women's morality, and try not to show their faces.

Although the saying is the embodiment of the wonderful wisdom of the ancients in our country, it does not mean that the truth and requirements contained in it are all correct.
In that era of feudal three principles and strict requirements, the marriage of men and women itself rarely had their own choices, which led to these so-called judging criteria.
Women going to the street to see the lamp is considered to be unconventional, and whether the man's quality is good or not depends on the thickness of the hair. From the perspective of modern society, it is really absurd.
But in those days, these were the most normal phenomena. Under the shackles of feudal etiquette, they have not been able to talk about freedom since childhood, and what makes people feel even more helpless is that most people's common cognition makes them not feel that there is anything strange about this matter.

Ancient ancestors had outstanding wisdom and created a variety of traditional arts. These have been handed down to this day, are irreplaceable treasures in our country's culture, and are the precious wealth of the country and the people.
They also have some crap, which we can also snoop on from their daily sayings. But there are still many sayings that are still very applicable in today's contemporary environment. This requires us to remove its dross and take its essence in order to better inherit traditional culture.
Feudal society is far from today's modern society, and the economic model has changed dramatically, and women are no longer subordinate to men, but independent people who can support half the sky.
Equal rights between men and women, equality between men and women, is the common pursuit of contemporary society. Whether outsiders judge whether they are good or not is not the only criterion for measuring whether people are excellent.
Both men and women have the right to choose, free love, and jointly decide whether to have children, can draw richer and better conclusions about our society. And those so-called three principles and five permanents that have bound our country for more than a thousand years have also been abandoned by the times.
It is everyone's duty to learn the wisdom of the ancients from all kinds of sayings, to abandon those that are not applicable, and to pass on the true essence. At the same time, we are no longer subordinate to anyone, and everyone lives for themselves.
