《礼记·丧大记》
大夫刚死，主人、室老、子孙都只喝稀粥，众士可以吃粗米做的饭和喝水，大夫的妻妾也可以吃粗米做的饭和喝水。
大夫之丧，主人室老子姓皆食粥；众士疏食水饮；妻妾疏食水饮。
When the higher officer passes, the host, the elder in the hall, and his descendants drink only cereal gruel. The rest of the members may eat coarse rice gruel and drink water. The higher officer’s wife and his concubines may also eat coarse rice gruel and drink water.
