Literally, this sentence means that the donkey and the horse are fed together in a trough, so the horse will get thinner and thinner, but the donkey will not get thinner and thinner. Why is this happening? This is because horses are very clean animals. In TV series, we see that the owner often bathes and brushes the horse.

And the stables should be cleaned frequently. This is because horses are very clean, and if they are not washed, they will be very uncomfortable for a long time. But the donkey is a special animal that doesn't like cleanliness. If horses and donkeys are locked together. Then horses will dislike donkeys very much.

Donkeys have an unpleasant smell, but horses won't eat any food and grass touched by donkeys. Therefore, if these two kinds of livestock are fed together, horses can hardly eat feed. On the one hand, they don't want to eat, on the other hand, they can't eat.

Because the donkey's temper is stubborn, so we often hear to describe a person with the donkey's temper. Although the horse looks tall, once tamed, it is very docile. If these two animals are kept together for a long time, Ma Ziran will be bullied by donkeys.

The owner takes the feed and takes it for granted that both kinds of livestock can eat it. But who ever thought that the donkey was full and the horse was half hungry? So there is this proverb.

In fact, this proverb was summed up by the older generation according to their own life experience, and now many people are using the extended meaning behind this proverb. Some young people do things for convenience, just follow their own ideas and naturally do so.

I thought it was a shortcut, but I didn't expect to spend more time to remedy it later. Some things still have a chance to remedy, but some things may not even have a chance to remedy.
