As the saying goes, 'good and evil look at the mouth and eyes, rich and poor look at the hands and feet': how do you think? Does it make sense

As the saying goes, phases are born from the heart.

People have been superstitious about each other for a long time. Therefore, there are many stories about faces and many proverbs.

For example, in legend, when Wu Zetian was a baby, Yuan Tian had just passed by. He only glanced at it, predicting that the child will have the order of the emperor in the future. Sure enough, she later became the first queen in history.

Perhaps it is because of the circulation of such stories that people believe in faces more and proverbs are enriched.

Some of these proverbs are relatively straightforward and can be understood at a glance, such as having no flesh on the cheeks, and showing flesh on the face is an evil spirit; others have extended meanings, such as good and evil, and hands and feet, rich and poor. If you want to explain, you have to think deeply.

Good and evil look at the mouth, and rich and poor look at the hands and feet? has no meaning?

1. Good and evil see the mouth and the eye.

The history of people meeting is relatively long, and it may have appeared in the pre-Qin period. There are also many professional teachers in the society who make a living. After the Han Dynasty, facial science gradually formed a unified theoretical system. Some famous, well-known physiognomy records are also more.

The Book of Rites, which is regarded as a classic of etiquette, also says: If you look at the top, you will be proud, the bottom will be worried, and if you look down, you will be treacherous. It means to be able to see a person's heart through the eyes.

Meaning: if the eyes are always looking up, it means that the person is proud; always looking down, it means that the person is worried; if people always look to the side, it means that the person is treacherous and cunning.

For a long time, people believed that a person's eyes could tell the character, to distinguish between good and evil.

It is generally believed that kind-hearted people are mostly firm and gentle in their eyes, while those who are sullen and mean and do things ferociously tend to be snarky, with fierce eyes.

Looking at the mouth, although there is a saying that the type of mouth is used to judge a person's character, it is more that it comes out of the mouth. A kind-hearted person should always speak modestly and tenderly, never say right or wrong, or speak ill.

Those who are insidious in their hearts are also bitter and mean when they speak out. At the same time, they can't see the good in others, they like to gossip, and the neighbors are most disturbed.

Therefore, the good and the evil look at the mouth and the eye means that to understand whether a person's inner quality is good or evil, one can observe his eyes, or listen to his state of speech.

2. The rich and the poor depend on their hands and feet.

In the ancient farming society, ordinary people could only rely on their own hands and feet to work hard if they wanted to have enough food and clothing.

People who work in the fields all year round will have rough hands and feet, chapped and frostbite in winter, so just by looking at their hands and feet, you can tell who is poor.

Wealthy families are different. They don't need to work in the fields, some are waiting for maintenance and conditioning, so their hands and feet are fine, smooth, plump, and rosy as they stretch.

Therefore, to distinguish a person's rich and poor, you only need to look at one hand and you can basically see that one is inseparable from ten.

However, the phrase rich and poor look at their hands and feet also has an extended meaning, which is that it is easy for a person with sharp hands and feet and a strong body to live a good life; conversely, it is difficult for the clumsy and infirm to escape poor.

Another meaning is that people who keep their hands and feet and work hard will live a good life sooner or later; those who are lazy and lazy are destined to be poor all their lives.

As the old saying goes:

Not afraid of being poor at home, afraid of lazy bugs.

Diligent, food and clothing; lazy, starving sooner or later.

Lazy people have no future, and even rich families will fall into poverty if they rely on lazy people to manage their families.

On the surface, the phrase that rich and poor look at hands and feet seems to be about looking at hands and feet to distinguish between rich and poor. The extended meaning is to teach people that those who are dexterous, industrious, and industrious will sooner or later lead a prosperous life.

Conclusion:

Good and evil not only look at people's faces, but also judge a person's quality through people's eyes and words; the rich and the poor look at their hands and feet, not only to judge their living conditions, but also to teach people to work hard to become rich.

However, drawing a tiger is difficult to draw bones, and it is difficult to know people and faces. If you want to judge a person's good and evil and life situation, you need to get along and understand on a deeper level. It's easier to be invisible just by relying on a few superficial phenomena.
