The Rice Bowl

While his children are trying to bridge their two worlds, Otoosan is busy supporting his family during the economic depression and still providing his mother and Japanese Shigeno's happiness. Just one year after Black Thursday, this shows the stock market crash where the children returned. After the First World War, the American countryside lost more than 30% of its value, the house was seized, the factory slept, millions of people did not work, and the family needed basic essentials.

1) Please do not stand chopsticks on rice bowl. Instead put them on your dish. This is because when someone died, there is sand or rice in the holy place, and two incense incense is in it. So when I put chopsticks in a rice bowl, it looks like this shrine. The authors created questionnaires to investigate understanding of table manners in Western European countries. The author distributed 200 questionnaires to the campus; I collected 175 times together. According to the survey results, most college students are not accustomed to table manners and know only a part of our Chinese table culture, such as how to carefully play at the table and how toast. Wait a second. However, in Western countries, more than 70% of students do not understand correctly about how to set up tables, how to use knives and forks, and how to talk properly and carefully at the table.

In general, Chinese table manners have many taboos. Several people have been abandoned over time, and to name just a few: first, please do not put chopsticks upright on the bowl. Instead put them on your plate. The reason behind this is that when someone dies, the temple built for the deceased has rice with two incense. If you put chopsticks directly on chopsticks, it looks like something in the shrine, so it is unlucky. Second, please make sure that the spout of the teapot is not suitable for anyone. It is rude to put a teapot in a place where the spout faces someone. The spout should point to a place that no one is occupied. Third, please do not tap the bowl lightly with chopsticks. This is not appropriate as the begger often clicks on the begging bowl. This is also rude, as people can knock on their balls and dishes while food is eating slowly.
