@cn_eyee: Look at these classroom desks for the new school term! Each desk is prepared with new textbooks, milk drinks, and a fresh cabbage. A red paper with the Chinese character “Juan” is stuck on every cabbage. This is a school custom on the first day of school in some Chinese schools. In Chinese, the word for cabbage白菜/ bai cai sounds similar to “hundred talents”. It carries best wishes, hoping students will become outstanding learners. At the same time, the character “Juan卷” refers to heavy academic competition. It is a humorous meme — “If I can not keep up with study, I will go home and plant cabbages.”😂 Teachers use this interesting gift to welcome students for the new semester, mixing good‑luck meaning with playful humour. #BackToSchoolChina #ChineseSchoolLife #FunCampusCulture #studentlife
