One person stays for dinner, only tofu blindly.

Translation: Someone keeps a guest at home for dinner, but the food he eats is only a bowl of tofu. He tells the guest that tofu is his life, and thinks that the taste of other dishes is not as good as tofu. One day, he arrived at the guest's house. The guest remembered his preference and mixed tofu in the fish dish. Unexpectedly, he chose fish to eat. The guest (surprised) asked him, "You once said tofu was your life. Why don't you eat it today?" He said, "I lost my life when I saw fish."

Original: One person stays for dinner, only tofu blindly, saying that tofu is my life, but I feel that it is not as good as it is. When I come to Hakka in a different day, guests remember that their favorite food is fish mixed with tofu, and their choice of fish is big. The guest asked, "Brother, it's your life to taste cloud tofu. Why don't you eat it today?" Answer: "I don't want my life when I see fish."

Extended information:

This classical Chinese is recorded in humorous short words, which tells the story of an ancient man who invited guests to eat at his house, but only one dish was served, namely tofu. Moreover, he plausibly said, "Tofu is my life, and I feel that eating nothing is like eating tofu."

But a few days later, he went to the guest's house. The guest remembered that he liked tofu best, so he added tofu to all the fish, meat and other dishes, but the man only ate fish instead of tofu. So the guest asked him curiously, "You said tofu is your life. Why don't you eat it today?" The man replied, "I don't even want my life when I see fish."

It can be seen that the IQ of ancient people is not lower than that of modern crosstalk performers. Through a short joke, it shows that classical Chinese has a very strong cultural background and can give people unlimited imagination.
