The habit of tearing napkins in Guangdong reflects a culture of frugality and sharing, sparking curiosity online.
Teacher Liu, I saw online that people in Guangdong like to tear napkins apart. That's so strange.
Yes, it's a very common habit. People in Guangdong tear napkins into two or four pieces to share with everyone.
But why do they do that? Isn't it more convenient for everyone to have their own napkin?
It's related to their culture. People in Guangdong value frugality and like to share. Tearing napkins is actually a way of showing care for others.
Oh, I get it. So it's not just about saving paper, but also a friendly gesture.
That's right. Nowadays, many young people also think it's environmentally friendly and meaningful. Such a small act actually shows great wisdom.
