The representative figures of the Wei and Jin Dynasties were Ji Kang, Ruan Ji, Shan Tao, Xiang Xiu, Liu Ling, Wang Rong, and Xun Xian. They were known as the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest. They often drank, played, sang, played chess, and chatted in the bamboo forest in Shanyin, showing their transcendence and elegance. Ji Kang was the representative of the Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove. He was handsome and charismatic, and was praised by others as " just like a lone pine tree standing alone, drunk like a collapsing jade mountain." Ji Kang once married Cao Cao's great-granddaughter, but because the situation could not be changed, he chose to live in seclusion in the mountains and rely on blacksmithing for a living. These seven people all had their own personalities and characteristics. They were the spiritual leaders of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
During the Wei, Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties, people's food culture developed more and more. The following conclusion: During the Wei, Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties, the vegetables that people often ate were eggplant, sunflower, leek, turnip, winter melon, gourd, mushrooms, mustard, and brassica. Southerners ate rice as their main food, while northerners ate wheat as their main food. The most typical example was all kinds of cakes.
