THE DOUBLE 墨雨云间 (2024)

“图贱买瘸驴”

"Aim for cheap prices and you will end up buying a lame donkey"

“一分钱一分货”

"A unit of price for a unit of quality"

These two common Chinese phrases share a similar meaning and may be used in similar situations. The first one uses "lame donkey" as a metaphor for an item of such a bad quality that it's useless, since China was an agricultural country for the longest time, and donkeys were often used in farm work, lame donkeys definitely wouldn't be helpful. This saying advises people to not always look for the item with the cheapest price tag.

The second saying basically means the same as "you get what you pay for", implying that the price of an item is proportionate to its quality. Of course, this may not always be true.

An assortment of traditional Chinese "food boxes" or meal "boxes", known as shí hé (食盒). These boxes can come in various forms, including stacked containers with compartments to keep different types of food separate. They are often used for transporting meals, particularly in contexts like picnics, travel, or school lunches. The concept is similar to a bento box in Japanese culture. Historically, these boxes might have been made from materials like wood, porcelain, or metal, but modern versions are often made from plastic or other lightweight materials.
