Is there a contradiction in the old saying in the countryside that "eating without meat is better than living without bamboo, and not planting bamboo in front of the door"?

This sentence expresses that spiritual civilization construction is more critical than material culture, cultural activities are more critical than tongue desire, and spiritual cultivation is more critical than stomach. In short, this is also a noble person, a person with a strong heart, a moral person, and a person who has got rid of vulgarity. Followed by the expression that eating without meat is better than living without bamboo: no meat makes people thin, and no bamboo makes people vulgar. They say people must be thin if they don't eat meat.

But the living environment will be vulgar if it is not elegant. People are thin and fat, but most people are incurable. It is said that people can gain weight when they are thin, but it is also terrible to be vulgar and difficult to return. Bamboo often becomes the favorite object of literati, and may need to be related to the seven sages of bamboo forest. As a cultural connotation, their life track of the legendary swordsman in the sea of bamboo is rooted in the blood of China literati, and bamboo has become one of the spiritual pillars of literati.

Su Shi loves bamboo, and one of his cousins, Wen Tong, that is, Wen, happens to be the great god who paints bamboo. The short story with the answer comes from Wentong. By the time of Su Dongpo, bamboo had become the favorite of literati. Su Shi's love for bamboo is completely different from that of many people who play Wan Wen bracelets now. He is true love, and nowadays people are more pretending to be profound. The whole poem is like this, "Yu Qian monk Lu Yunxuan": I would rather eat without meat than live without bamboo.

No meat makes people thin, no bamboo makes people vulgar. People are thin and fat, but most people are incurable. Others laughed it off, as tall as a fool. If you still talk freely for this reason, there will be no Yangzhou crane in the world. The "gentleman" here happens to be Phyllostachys pubescens, and bamboo also has the metaphor of a house full of children and grandchildren. The development trend of Phyllostachys pubescens is fast. A osmanthus village produces a sea of bamboo in less than two years, and this family has a osmanthus village with bamboo shoots all year round. So others married their daughters and said; There is a "bamboo pond" (dialect) that is a good husband! The implication is that the daily life of other people in this osmanthus village is generally good. But planting a few naturally does not count. But on the whole, bamboo is auspicious, and saying a few words is not in conflict.
