In ancient times, people used to call their children "dogs". Why not "tigers"?

In fact, this is mainly to show your modesty, so that others will think you are more arrogant.

Dogs are better than tigers in ancient times and now. Therefore, in order to feel humble, ancient people usually took their children out, and everyone they met would say they were dogs. Then, someone came out with their daughter. Praise means tiger girl and modesty. I remember in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, once, a Wu Dongren proposed to Guan Yu and wanted to take his daughter to deepen the relationship. Guan Yu was angry on the spot: how can a tiger girl marry her son?

The man who proposed was angry, too. How can they hit the face on the spot? Your daughter is Bao and my son is a son. So the word "son-in-law" refers to his father and others. First, follow the tradition of modesty and carry forward its virtue. The other is complete provocation. Obviously, you look down on your son. Frankly speaking, your son is not good enough for my daughter. At that time, I felt very domineering when I read this sentence, which showed the image characteristics of Guan Yu incisively and vividly.

China has always been modest in ancient times. This is something that has existed for thousands of years. In addition to dogs and sons, there are many usual appellations that should be paid attention to, such as calling someone else's father to say your father; Say your own, your wife says your wife; When you invite someone to your home, you must say it's great. China's culture is full of this sense of modesty and gentleness, which is worth learning from our young people. Don't be too arrogant.

Let's popularize some words to express our modesty: Liu Pu's posture, the younger generation, my father, my brother ... there are countless words. Although we don't need to call them that in reality, we should learn from them, learn to hide others, and learn to be humble.
