Reader comments
Just like the word "back door", it turns out that there is such an interesting historical allusion. I think this book is a bit similar to "Shuowen Jiezi", both of which are about deciphering the mysteries of Chinese characters. The author must have spent a lot of thought and researched a lot of information to complete this book. I really hope there can be more good books like this so that we can better understand the breadth and depth of Chinese culture.
Terminology explanations, classic stories, Internet language, everything is available, it's a matter of course.
There are many stories, but the format needs to be optimized
I came here because of the title of the book, and I didn't want to read a delicious snack with an oversized hat on. [Laugh][laugh][laugh][like]
This book reminds me of Teacher Yin teaching fifth grade here at Shuangrong School, explaining life-long experiences to students on stage. Also get rid of the black sheep
