Let's talk about the bed culture in classical furniture! The main manifestation is that the bed is not messy, and different people sleep in different beds, each with its own meaning. "Confucianism" endows sleeping and sleeping with specific etiquette concepts. The setting of the bed is not only a practical nursing seat, but also necessary for life etiquette.

248b# In ancient times, there was a big difference between the bed used by the children and grandchildren of minors (under-age children) and the beds of other people in the family. From the beds that the ancients prepared for their children, one can see the ancients' philosophy of education for their children.
"Children and grandchildren beds" are mostly "frame beds", but there are also "babu beds", among which the "frame beds" were regarded by the ancients as the most suitable bed for children and grandchildren to grow up and sleep. . In ancient times, the living rooms of children and grandchildren of minors (underages) were relatively small, so a simple canopy bed was most suitable. The bed body is mostly rigid, which is not only good for the development of children's bones, but also teaches children to straighten their spine and behave in a subtle and silent manner. This is also the ardent expectation of the ancients for their children.
In addition, this kind of bed is normal Simple, elegant, and more open-cut subjects such as plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum, and the Four Treasures of the study, so as to nurture children and grandchildren to study hard anytime and anywhere. From this point of view, a Chinese parent's painstaking effort not only reflects on the child's body, but also his aspirations and future, it is really rare.
Married sleeping bed
Whether in ancient or modern times, marriage is a very important thing. Therefore, the ancients also attached great importance to marriage beds. Some people also use canopy beds for marriage beds, but more often, large families are more willing to spend a lot of money to build a Babu bed.
The Babu bed is not only irrelevant in the manufacturing process, but also contains peculiar Chinese folk customs. There are sculptures and paintings with different themes on the Babu bed. In addition to the auspicious patterns, some drama stories, and folklore, a large part of it, with hints of certain cloud and rain, has become a secret between husband and wife, and naturally it is even less suitable for outsiders to see. The ingenuity of the ancients is far from this. Some parents in Babu bed also set up small organs to understand the life in their children’s room, which can also be seen from the parents’ good intentions
This kind of bed not only consigns the parents' desire for the children to pass on from generation to generation, but also consigns the desire to inherit the tradition of ethical education.
