Video: There are rules for pouring vegetables in the nine houses

Sima Qingyi shared in a Douyin number called "Boiled Chongqing": "Many Chongqing hot pots use the Nine Palace Grid. But few people know that the middle of the nine-square grid has a rule: you can't pour vegetables into it. You can pick up the dish and eat it hot, but you can't pour the dish inside. Because, according to the rules of old Chongqing, the rest of the dishes are all poured in the middle, which means that today's hot pot is over and the guests are rushed. ”

Citizen: I was once laughed at by the waiter for this

Hu Jie is 31 years old and his hometown is in Guizhou. Today, Hu Jie works as a tester at a technology company in Optoelectronic Park.

At the beginning of this year, Hu Jie invited several fellow villagers who came to Chongqing to go to WuliDian to eat an old hot pot hidden deep in the alley. The hot pot was very fragrant, and the stomach was hungry, hu jie and the compatriots wanted to eat more dishes quickly, so they poured bean sprouts and amaranth flour into the middle of the nine palace grid. Seeing the situation, a waiter aunt in her 50s rushed out to stop it, and she used a colander to fish the middle grid dishes around, laughing at them for not understanding the rules of Chongqing hot pot.

Auntie said that the fire in the middle interval is the most vigorous, that is used to burn the hairy belly, shabu duck intestines, can not be poured into this grid at the beginning, "Fortunately, you are not invited to eat hot pot by old Chongqing people, otherwise others will think that you are picking up guests." ”

Hu Jie said embarrassedly: "After that time, I remembered this rule, I didn't understand it before, and I felt often disrespectful, which was quite embarrassing." ”

Ms. Liu, the owner of the old hot pot on Huahua West Road, also told reporters that although the hot pot is a dish full of jianghu arrogance, this rule is adhered to by many old hot pot restaurants. I also hope that more people will pass on such old rules.

Extension: These "code words" also have the meaning of ending the meal

Chinese

Citizen Ms. Zhang (29-year-old accountant): Happy housewarming, I invited a few colleagues to eat Chinese food at home, and I saw that the table was a little messy, so I went to collect the plates. A colleague asked half-jokingly: "Aren't you afraid that you are urging us to get off the table?" "After that, I understood that don't sweep the table while the guests are eating.

Netizens "give it to it": the wine is full of respect for people and tea is full of sending guests, that is, pouring tea can not be poured, piping hot tea will burn the guests, and the guests can not drink it when they are served, which is not very polite to the guests, and also contains the meaning of evicting guests.

Mr. Xia ,32): When eating Chinese food outside, there will be fruit plates, but they can't be served earlier than the main dish. Once the fruit is on, it is a hint that the dishes are all finished, and the meal is over.

Netizen "wind blowing dance sleeve back": when eating Western food, if the dinner knife and fork are placed in a figure-of-eight shape, it can mean a rest, wait and continue to eat, can remind the waiter that the meal is not over, do not take the food away. If the knife and fork are placed together, you can convey to the waiter that the meal has been completed and remind the waiter that he can take away the tableware.

Citizen Ms. Jiang (30-year-old human): When eating Western food with others, it will be very embarrassing if the knives and forks are not placed correctly. Obviously, I still want to continue eating, but it sends a signal to end the meal, so be sure to pay attention.
