Origin Story

话说唐朝时期，有个秀才去参加科举考试。考官出了个难题：‘解释“并为一谈”’。秀才绞尽脑汁，也只想到用“混淆”来解释，实在想不出其他的解释方法。他深知，如果不能圆满解释这个成语，他的科举之路就会就此终结。于是，他灵机一动，决定用一个故事来解释。他说道：‘话说很久以前，有个农夫，他种了一块地，收获了稻米和麦子。他把稻米和麦子混在一起，然后高高兴兴地把它们带回家，并对家人说：’我今年的收成可真不错！’家人一看，稻米和麦子混在一起，也感到非常高兴。可是，农夫把稻米和麦子混在一起后，就无法再区分它们，最后导致稻米和麦子都坏掉了，农夫颗粒无收。’秀才说到这里，停顿了一下，然后接着说道：‘这个故事就如同“并为一谈”一样，虽然乍看之下，好像把所有事物混在一起没有什么问题，但实际上，如果不加区分，就可能会造成不可挽回的损失。’考官听完秀才的故事后，不禁点了点头，说道：‘你的解释很有道理，而且故事生动有趣。’
