As the saying goes: 'Blessed people have hair on their legs, and unfortunate people have hair on their legs.' Although it is vulgar, it is reasonable.

I believe that many people will hear such a sentence, that is, the saying goes well, and the ideas behind many common sayings will feel very abrupt in modern times.

After all, the vicissitudes of the years and the vicissitudes of the times have often created differences in the thinking of people in different eras, and feudal thinking has now been eliminated by the new era.

However, there are still some ideas that are truly worth savoring, and they are still passed down from generation to generation. Many of them are catchy proverbs. When it comes to proverb culture, countless people will remember a proverb.

Proverbs also accompany many people's childhood lives, and the proverb culture has the same key role in Chinese civilization as the poetry culture.

So far, hundreds of years have passed. Now, a random word represents the wisdom of the ancestors. As the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancestors, this sentence often confirms the changes of the times, but it is more about the care of the elders for the descendants.

Through the culture of proverbs, we can know how the ancients treated those who were blessed or not. Blessed people have hair on their legs, and unfortunate people have hair on their legs. This sentence expresses the concept. It's vulgar, but reasonable.

01 The concept of the ancestors environmental products.

In fact, until now, people have not been able to immediately see the essence through the appearance, and now blindly following the point of view of physiognomy is really not in line with the current trend of the times.

However, I have to admit that the concept of the ancestors can help people avoid too many detours in many cases, and the character of people in daily life will also be displayed in various aspects.

Perhaps an inadvertent subtle action will also become a fuse to reveal nature and personal style, and there is a sentence once said, who will do what.

The reason why the ancients said that the relationship is born from the heart is because people are immersed in a certain environment for a long time, and the way of thinking and behavior will also be subtly changed.

After all, people are products of their environment. Even if they are alone in an environment for years, they will blend in with the style of their surroundings. Once a distinct style is formed, others will judge who they are based on their actions.

For example, when you look at people, you will see three courts and five eyes, and it is commonplace in the distant feudal era to judge a person's character based on the five senses.

Likewise, if you look at a person's leg hair, you can roughly see what that person's blessing is. In the first half of the sentence, the leg hair of the blessed person, that is to say, the leg hair of the blessed person is mostly exuberant. Of course, if you only use it as a criterion for judging blessings, you will not see any way or secret.

Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the ancient social phenomena and the concepts of the ancients, and rewind the time train back to the era of relying on farming. Since there was basically no hope for ordinary people to study at that time, only a few families in poor families would provide opportunities for their children.

The lives of most ordinary people are still spent in repeated farming, and those who have been engaged in agricultural work for a long time were often considered unhappy in ancient times. Characters do not have to work hard all their lives. The opposite of natural hard work is natural happiness.

In any era, worrying less and enjoying life more is a symbol of happiness, but there are differences in the criteria for judging happiness in ancient and modern times. In ancient times, as a veritable farming society, there has always been such a concept that as long as you work hard enough, you cannot solve the problem of food and clothing.

02 Rare things are expensive and more are cheap.

Some people may ask that diligence is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. Why did it characterize the unhappy period of that period? In fact, the fundamental reason lies in the yearning of ordinary people to enjoy life. Those who are rare are cheap. Imagine that in an environment where you can only work for many years, people who don't need to work so hard are sure to be especially present in the crowd.

However, the speed of information dissemination in ancient times was too slow, and there was no such technology as the Internet to understand various fields at any time. When ordinary people in ancient times looked forward to a high-quality life, their imaginations could only stay at the level that they could not enjoy happiness without hard work.

Those who deal with agricultural work are sure to plant rice in the ground. The hair on their legs will naturally thin out in the long run, but those who don't need to work naturally don't rub their leg hair from transplanting.

Leg hairs that are not affected by external forces can also be retained, so the leg hair of the blessed person is luxuriant, and this saying has gradually spread.

However, from another point of view, other conclusions can also be drawn. Since frequent farm work also represents a small area of ​​activity, prolonged immersion in water will also cause leg hair to be rubbed.

In contrast, those who have hairy legs year-round may go elsewhere if they are not doing farm work. However, in ancient times, their clothing was relatively long, so they also protected the leg hair to some extent and disguised as a protective layer for the leg hair.

Mao in this sentence also has the same pronunciation as busy, which fell in the eyes of the ancients. That's what it means for aristocrats to be busy. Just like the dignitaries in society, which one is not busy every day.

Over time, busyness has become the peculiarity of the blessed person, who is idle all day, and generally does not achieve any dazzling achievements.

Being busy also shows that you are striving for the future. The ancients admired those who were willing to work hard.

When people around them start to get busy, ordinary people naturally rate them highly. In addition, there were too few entertainment items for people's leisure in ancient times, which was almost equivalent to ordinary people.

In such a boring living environment, it is really easy for people to become lazy except for work, and it is very difficult to develop a good habit.

Learning a bad habit is easy. Whether a person is blessed or not depends on the concept of leg hair. On the contrary, the ancients gradually formed the phrase by looking at the essence through appearance and incorporating the characteristics of the blessed into the viewpoint.

03 Inspiration, trial and error.

In fact, so are the origins of many proverbs. The ancients drew inspiration from real life, and then came to a conclusion based on their own life experience, after repeated observation and trial.

Such conclusions can often stand the test of time, and those things that can withstand wind, rain and tribulation can resist the trend of the times and survive.

The adage still in vogue is excellent proof that there would not be so much experience without countless guesses and observations.

They are called experiences because they are drawn from failures, not just from the same successes.

The ancestors understood that there are too few people who can go smoothly. Nine out of ten people are already in a good situation. For ordinary people without superpowers, it is more reliable to avoid detours through experience.
