Nowadays, liquor and beer are often used as decorations at rural banquets. Why don’t you like drinking anymore?

Nowadays, there are indeed fewer and fewer people drinking at rural banquets.

In the past, there were more people drinking in rural areas. After drinking at noon, they continued to drink at night. One table of white wine was not enough. Some tables cannot hold more than two or three bottles. There are eight people at a table. Calculate how much each person needs to drink.

Some people make trouble after drinking too much. This phenomenon used to be very common. Why? The fundamental reason is poverty. Because of poverty, it is not easy to get free drinks. If you don’t drink, you will have nothing to drink. Anyway, you have to drink back the dozens of dollars as a gift, so you take advantage of the banquet and drink as hard as you can, and you will be happy after drinking. With the development of the times, drinking is no longer the most important need.

As the living standards of urban people improve, they also pay great attention to their health, so they drink less.

When rural people go to the city, they also learn this, and they also know how to take care of their bodies. It is impossible to let them drink two or three bottles.

The living standards in rural areas have improved. You can drink whenever you want. There is no need to wait until the banquet to drink as hard as you can.

Drinking is no longer to satisfy one's own addiction. Drinking is just to be happy. As long as the people at the table are happy, there will no longer be people trying to persuade people to drink like in the past. Anyone who doesn't drink will not do it. Everything is random. .

Since it is casual, no one will drink from a bottle non-stop. It is just a symbolic drink of a little bit of wine.

This is a manifestation of civilization. Wine culture does not mean that you must drink more. You can drink if you want to drink and don't drink if you don't want to. This is wine culture.

As society develops, fewer and fewer people drink alcohol. Wine in rural areas will naturally become a decoration. Sometimes it is just a decoration, but wine has already played its role

Modern life is rich and happy,

Farmers often travel by car.

Driving for weddings and funerals,

I already care about safe driving.

Even if you drink a little, nothing will happen.

Drinking is easy to get caught by the traffic police.

At least you will get points deducted for asking for money.

If something happens, you will go straight to jail.

You are fully responsible for canceling your driver’s license.

In serious cases, you may be jailed.

No matter how good the food and wine are,

your own safety must be guaranteed.

There are only a few people at the table who drink,

Some people at the table don’t drink at all.

The wine shop originally relied on the fragrance of air,

It is difficult to liven up the place with so few people.

Moreover, if you are a drunkard,

Drinking too much will ruin the table.

Originally it was a gathering of relatives and friends.

Who wants to spend money to find bad luck?

If you really have to pay tens of thousands,

A year's work will be in vain.

Let the wine be polite and respectful,

Don’t bully until the point is reached.

There are more simple words among relatives and friends,

No more risking wine fights.

Originally I could drink more than a kilogram,

I stopped quickly after drinking half a kilogram.

If something really happens, the family will be in chaos.

The boss’s relatives and friends will also be uneasy.

If you have another stupid drink,

others will be upset just looking at it.

Besides, there is a lot of wine at home,

Why go out and drink stupidly.

Therefore, when the wine is placed on the wine table,

it is also a ceremonial setting.

Nowadays, when banquets are held in rural areas, it is true that the liquor and beer on the table have become decorations. It’s not that people don’t like to drink it, but that they don’t dare to drink it. Not daring to drink does not mean that there is any quality problem with the drink, but that many factors add up to make everyone have to be self-disciplined, otherwise, it is directly related to their own vital interests.

The first reason why drinks have become a decoration: Nowadays, when banquets are held in rural areas, to be honest, many of them hold banquets with another purpose. In the past, the intention of building relationships with relatives and friends has completely disappeared.

Especially in my hometown, birthdays such as 1st, 3rd, 6th, 9th, 15th, 36th, 50th, 60th, and 70th birthdays, as well as moving to a new house, installing a beam, buying a car, etc. are all celebrated for various reasons. It can be a reason to have a drink. As a result, many people hold banquets for reasons other than building relationships with relatives and friends. As a result, many people are numbed by such banquets. Even in the past, they just fill up the banquet, eat casually and leave.

There are even people who are too lazy to go there, just send a red envelope using WeChat and say a few greetings and that's it. There are so many such things, and the enthusiasm for walking around in the past has faded. It used to be a way to connect with each other, but now it has become a transaction mode, making people very passive.

The second reason why drinks have become a decoration: Nowadays, whether in cities or rural areas, cars are everywhere on the streets, and cars are used to travel far and near. Don’t drink while driving, don’t drive after drinking, and you are most afraid of being caught by the traffic police for drinking. This is also one of the things that drivers worry about the most.

"No feast without wine" has been a rule since ancient times. In the past, when people went to the city, they would spend half a day just waiting for the bus. Now, when they go to the city, they can come and go. It only takes half a day. With more and more convenient cars, various corresponding management systems have been introduced. Drunk driving is a "nightmare" for many drivers today. Not only do they suffer monetary losses, but they also face more severe penalties.

Three reasons why drinks have become a decoration: People nowadays are busy with their own affairs. When invited, a close friend will be there in person. If the relationship is just average, many people will shirk it with excuses. .

Most of the friends present were not very familiar with each other, and even if they were sitting together, they could not say a few words. Even if I drink, I won’t open a bottle of wine alone. Besides, the boss carefully prepared a variety of banquet dishes. Many of the people sitting at the same table did not know each other, so there was little chance of drinking alone.

It has long been a common sight in rural areas that drinks become a decoration. In fact, there are still many people drinking in rural areas, but nowadays people drink according to different occasions, different times, and they also need to meet the right person for drinking.

Last year, my brother got married. Because there were 18 tables of guests, my uncle insisted that I prepare 8 boxes of liquor and 48 bottles each. In addition to putting 2 bottles on each table, I also reserved 12 bottles to spare. As a result, I was surprised. Only 5 of the 18 tables of guests opened the liquor, but none of them drank it.

I could only carry the remaining 7 boxes of liquor to the cigarette shop to return it. I will never forget the look that the owner of the cigarette shop looked at me. That look clearly said, brother, you Think of me as a Sunday, right? 8 boxes were moved and 7 boxes were returned to me.

Why are fewer and fewer people drinking at rural banquets now?

The conversation I had with several relatives of our family during lunch that day can completely answer this question.

Sitting at the same table with me were my three cousins ??and uncles, and two uncles and aunts. I was the only junior at this table.

So, after I sat down, I reached for the liquor and prepared to open it and pour it for them.

At this time, one of my cousins ??saw me taking the wine and said, "I don't drink, and I have to go to work in the afternoon."

Another cousin continued: " I don’t drink either, I came by car. You can’t drink and drive.”

My eyes could only move downwards. Finally, my uncle took out a medicine bottle, shook it and said, “I want to drink it very much.” , but I have no choice but to quit. "

I don’t need to ask my uncle. He had a minor stroke last year and his mouth is still a little crooked. Naturally, I can only sigh while looking at the wine.

After asking around, I retracted my hand that was about to open the liquor, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Then I won't open it."

My uncle opened his slightly crooked mouth and said with difficulty: "You can drink alone."

I took the liquor to the side and said with a smile: "Me neither Drink, I have a lot of things waiting for me to do in the afternoon."

At this point, although there are 10 people sitting at our table, not a bottle of liquor has been opened. I guess the situation at other tables was similar to ours. I summarized why liquor has gradually become a decoration at rural banquets, for the following reasons.

One: The banquet time is usually at noon, which results in many people coming to work in a hurry. After the banquet, they have to rush back to work. Which unit allows employees to continue working after drinking?

Two: Today’s rural areas are no longer the rural areas of a few decades ago. Farmers have money in their pockets, and almost every household has a car. There was a wedding held at a relative's house, so of course I drove there to save face.

In addition, the intensity of inspections on drunk driving is getting higher and higher, and the cost of violation is getting higher and higher. No one dares to test the law.

Three: Rural people now pay more and more attention to health care. In addition, in recent years, there have been an increasing number of people suffering from “three highs”, and more and more people are giving up drinking.

Four: This is the most important reason. Farmers’ living standards have improved and they have lost their previous interest in wine.

After returning the drink, I drove home. After I got home, my uncle asked me: "Have you withdrawn the wine?"

I spread my hands and said: "I have withdrawn. I told you not to prepare so much, but you didn't listen. The boss looked happy. Look at me. Fortunately, I said hello in advance, otherwise I would have been afraid that they would refuse to leave me."

Today's rural areas are no longer what they used to be.

The quality of farmers has not only improved to a higher level.

So for this question, I think the word "rural" should be removed from the title, and the question is obviously asked with colored glasses, because this situation also exists in cities.

What do you think?

The strange phenomenon of rural banquets, liquor and beer has become a decoration. Do people nowadays not like drinking? No, there are reasons for not drinking. In our rural areas, it is true that not many people drink heavily at banquets. If they want to drink, they only take one or two symbolic sips to show a kind of etiquette. Drinking nothing is a bit unreasonable, and there is no atmosphere of a banquet.

Let me tell you why liquor and beer have become a decoration.

From the perspective of the owner, the service must be in place, whether there are people drinking or not, it must be there. For people who don’t drink, it becomes a decoration. At our rural banquet, the whole family must be present. The elderly, children, and women generally do not drink. They are the majority. However, the host cannot not serve wine because of this. This seems not sincere. Let’s do it next time. People may not want to come to the banquet.

From the perspective of the people attending the banquet, there are many reasons.

First, if you drink alcohol, how can you eat meat? If you don't eat meat after paying the money, you will inevitably feel that you are losing a lot. Some people really think like this, and it is normal.

Second, the banquet in my hometown starts very early in the morning, between about 8:30 and 9:30, which is the peak period of crowds. It is breakfast time, and there is no drinking at all. atmosphere. Some people are also afraid that drinking will cause trouble and prevent them from working all day.

Thirdly, many people nowadays are in a sub-healthy state, their physique is not as good as before, and they often suffer from high blood sugar and high blood pressure. It is not acceptable for such people to drink.

Fourth, many people in Guangxi like to guess numbers and drink heavily. Doing so in an occasion like a banquet is offensive, steals the spotlight from the host, and is a sign of disrespect.

1. In today’s rural areas, it is basically possible to buy whatever you want to eat. Unlike previous years, there was a lack of food and drink.

2. Nowadays, there are fewer people smoking and drinking, and more people are quitting smoking and drinking. Self-health awareness has been greatly improved.

3. Drunk driving is illegal. Everyone basically drives a motor vehicle to attend a banquet, and some people dare not drink even if they want to. Unlike in previous years, when people were riding bicycles or walking, they fell down drunk and slept directly on the roadside.

The main reason is that everyone’s living standards have indeed improved.

My wife is from the countryside, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law are both born and raised in the countryside. They have many brothers and sisters and can be considered a big family in their local area.

Every year, my wife and I go to the countryside to attend several banquets, whether they are wedding banquets, birthday banquets, or centenary banquets.

According to my observation, there have been some new changes in rural banquets in recent years, which are mainly reflected in the following points: Why do beer and liquor become decorations at rural banquets now, and why don’t they like drinking anymore? ? This is because:

First, the people attending the banquet have changed

Second, people’s ideas have changed. Nowadays, rural banquets are more like an occasion to show family strength, and everyone who comes is You have to drive here so that you can "show off" in front of your relatives and friends. This face is much more important than drinking! Because of these reasons, liquor and beer have almost become decorations at rural banquets nowadays. What do you think?

A few days ago, we held a banquet here. The banquet started at 5:30 in the afternoon. The venue was a courtyard in the countryside. As soon as we entered the gate, the host handed him cigarettes and chatted with him. After a while, we went to follow the ceremony. After the ceremony, the steward of the host family said, "Old Li, if you can drink, you can make an appointment for yourself." Obviously the host family is very warm and hospitable. I looked around and saw several friends from this village. was waving to me, so I walked towards their table, while my family joined another table.

Before the food was on the table, the drinks were put on the table first, including two bottles of beer, one bottle of drink, and one bottle of bulk Xiaozao wine. For those of us who know how to drink, beer and drinks are naturally not the same thing. Yes, the main thing is to drink liquor. Since everyone is usually busy with their own affairs, it is difficult to get together. Everyone drank happily that day, and the liquor at our table was not enough. Fortunately, several people nearby The table was filled with people who didn’t like to drink, so of course we enjoyed their wine.

In today’s banquets, wine has become a kind of decoration. This is not absolute. It can only depend on the specific situation. If the host invites many people and the venue for the banquet is small, Naturally, there are flowing water seats. In this situation, you have to wait in line to eat. Even if you want to take a sip, but you see many people waiting behind you, your thoughts of drinking will stop here, because drinking requires time and good habits. It is an interactive environment, but there is no such drinking atmosphere at the flowing table, so Cong Cong can only finish the meal and run away.

Some hosts hold banquets in a relatively spacious place, so there is no need to eat at the flowing banquet. Drinkers can enjoy it slowly, but there are still fewer people drinking than before. Take the drunk driving and drinking at the same table. In terms of joint liability, once these two situations occur, the drinker will be punished accordingly, so everyone drinks more civilized than before. If you want to drive, of course you will not touch alcohol. People who drink at the same table are also more cautious. , people who are often together, everyone knows how much they can drink, and just drink as much as possible. But when drinking with strangers at a banquet, most people don't dare to persuade them to drink, and it will be over if they just drink casually. Therefore, drinkers have a strong balance in their hearts. He will not drink easily when it is time to drink.

In addition, people’s material life has improved. Everyone who drinks alcohol pays more attention to the quality of the wine. If you encounter something that is not harmful to your health, you can drink it appropriately. If you encounter a fake wine, everyone is unwilling to do so. Go and touch it, and modern people regard longevity as very important, and they will control the scale when drinking, and stop in moderation. Rural banquets are "strange", liquor and beer have become decorations, why don't people like drinking anymore?

A month ago, my wife’s uncle passed away. In order to see the old man off for the last time, we rushed back to our hometown in the countryside. After experiencing it, we discovered that the rules for holding funerals in rural areas are completely different from those in cities;

A year ago in the city, I attended the funeral of an old man from my aunt’s family. On the early morning of the third day, at dawn, a group of people rushed to the crematorium. After the old man was cremated and buried, the host’s family wanted to express their gratitude. Dear relatives and friends, we will arrange for everyone to have a meal at the hotel at noon that day to express our gratitude;

When I returned to the countryside this time, I originally thought it would be like this, but the actual situation was completely beyond my imagination. A funeral in the countryside, the third Instead of rushing to the crematorium early, Tian invites relatives and friends to have a meal at 10 o'clock. This is also the most important meal, and is used to express gratitude to relatives and friends just like in the city.

In order to answer the question asked by the questioner, I need to first tell you about the differences between having a banquet in the countryside and having a banquet in the city:

1. The dining places are different, both in the city In regular hotels, banquets in rural areas are held at the door of one's home, with mobile chefs and running-water banquets set up on the stove;

2. The time is different, it is mostly lunch time in the city. Most of the time in rural areas is in the morning, around 9-10 o'clock;

3. The banquet in rural areas will turn over the table, clear the table immediately after eating, and then start the banquet again immediately;

4. In order to serve the food quickly, there are relatively few soups and desserts. At least this is the case in several rural flowing water banquets I have encountered;

5. Packing, several rural flowing water banquets I have eaten, Most of the dishes are hard dishes and the portions are large. It is inevitable that you will not be able to finish them all. Everyone will pack some dishes that their family likes to eat, and the host is also happy to see this happen. This will not cause food waste at all;

The "strange image" of rural banquets, liquor and beer become a decoration, why don't people like drinking anymore?

Through the above introduction, everyone has a preliminary understanding of rural banquets. Let me answer the question and answer the question and tell you: The "strange image" of rural banquets, liquor and beer become decorations, and everyone It will be easier for you to understand the reasons why you don’t like drinking. The specific reasons are as follows:

1. The time for drinking is wrong. For example, at the rural banquet I attended, the meal time that day was around 10 a.m., and the time was No sooner or later, the most important thing is that many relatives and friends will have funerals later, so everyone will try not to drink;

2. Most of the banquets in rural areas are dominated by the elderly, and many young people I have gone out to work, and there are so many banquets in the countryside, so few young people can rush home, and the old people and women left behind basically don’t drink much;

3. There are many non-local relatives and friends. , all drive back to their hometown. For the safety of themselves and their families, everyone will choose not to drink as much as possible;

4. In many rural banquets, many people at the same table do not know each other, and everyone at the flowing water banquet It is a random banquet. When the people at the table are neither familiar with everyone nor drink, the person who wants to drink will naturally be embarrassed;

5. People’s consumption levels have improved and their material life foundation has improved. It is also plentiful. Unlike in the past, when everyone was eager to have a banquet, now everyone is looking at health and there are more drinks to choose from. Therefore, fewer and fewer people drink at rural banquets;

6. Everyone’s living conditions have improved. If you want to drink, you can have fun at home. There is no need to drink in this kind of banquet atmosphere. Not to mention being restrained, at least it is not fun to drink, so naturally there are fewer people drinking. ;

I went and read a few answers, and they were very dissatisfied with the rural people. The wine served was fake. The reason why rural people don’t drink is to eat more pieces of meat, and even serve the dishes at the banquet. Everyone rushed to pack. Can I say that I have never been to a rural area, so can I stop talking nonsense?

As for the fact that there are fewer people drinking at banquets in rural areas, it is because the pace of life is so fast now, and it is difficult to go to a banquet to save face. Normally, people go to lunch and leave immediately after eating. People who go to work go to work and do business, so there is no time to write ink at the banquet.

Besides, for the sake of convenience, everyone has a car now. If you take a sip of wine and are caught by the traffic police, you will lose a lot of money. Even if you are not afraid of the traffic police, for the sake of your own safety, you cannot drink. As long as your deskmate heard that you came by car, no one would dare to persuade you to drink, because modern people are too aware of the law.

My cousin once drank with others. One of them got too drunk and died in a car accident on the way home. As a result, everyone at their table was sued by the family of the deceased. After mediation, each person paid 20,000 yuan to stop suing. Is it worth a lawsuit just to have a drink? If you have that spare money, why not drink the spicy food you enjoy at home?

There are fewer people drinking at banquets in rural areas. This is due to two reasons: time constraints and safety.

The fake wine doesn’t taste good, and in order to eat more meat, I grab the vegetables and pack them up to take home. It’s so imaginative that I think I’m still living in the 80s and 90s.
