clumsy

It was an idiom that meant to maintain a simple and natural character and not pursue worldly fame and fortune. It came from Hong Yingming's anthology of essays in the Ming Dynasty, Cai Gen Tan. This idiom emphasized that for a person with shallow experience in the world, he would not be easily affected by bad habits, and the more experience a person had, the deeper his shrewdness would be. Therefore, instead of being slick and cautious, it was better to maintain a simple personality and not lose his pure nature. The meaning of being simple and unsophisticated was to maintain a simple and natural character and not pursue worldly fame and fortune.
