The story of toddler in Handan

What hurts is the Vietnamese people in the Spring and Autumn Period. Frowning your chest when you are sick is better than usual. Dong Shi, a girl from the same village, frowned like Shi, because she was ugly, and because she deliberately imitated Shi's movements, her strange posture was even more offensive.

Handan toddler:

During the Warring States Period, a Yan man, Zhao from Handan, heard that his walking posture was very beautiful, so he came to Handan to learn to walk. Walking posture, who didn't get it, forgot his own, and finally climbed back to Yan State. In Li Bai's poem, he said: Keeping the mausoleum out of step makes people laugh at Handan.

In fact, toddlers in Handan learn not ordinary gait, but dance steps in Handan. At that time, a popular dance step in Handan, Zhao Jiaotiao, was similar to the toe dance of modern western ballet, which was very beautiful.

Extended data:

The article "Zhuangzi Qiushui" wrote: "I don't know that Fu Shouling's Yuzi studied in Handan? If you can't get the power of the country, you will lose your reason and go straight to your ears. "

This allusion means that during the Warring States period, people in Handan, the capital of Zhao State, were famous for their beautiful walking posture. A man from Yan came to Handan to learn to walk. He found that people all over the street walk in different ways, but they are all elegant, so they learn from each other. As a result, he learned nothing, even forgot how to walk before, so he had to climb back.

Li Bai, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote a poem "Keeping the mausoleum out of step and laughing at Handan people". The idiom "Handan toddler" comes from this story. Some scholars believe that toddlers in Handan actually learn not ordinary walking, but Handan dance steps. At that time, dance machines were popular in the ancient capital Handan. This is a tiptoe dance similar to modern western ballet, which is very beautiful.

"Narrow alleys are expensive, and walking bridges are wide and beautiful." This is a antithesis in the modern writer Ma Xinmin's "Handan Fu". In my opinion, the young guards came to Handan to learn dance steps similar to modern ballet style, not to walk.

The youth guarding the mausoleum studied hard and jumped his feet to the point where they were swollen and couldn't walk. This spirit can't be laughed at, but should be rewarded. Even outsiders can warn people not to imitate blindly and lose their nature. But Handan people should never take this as a joke to those who come to study hard.
