Structure of wheat: upper and lower structure. The wheat of Oracle bone inscriptions has always come from (waste). The ancients thought that wheat was a gift from heaven. There is also a saying that Mai's original intention was to come, but later this meaning was borrowed by Lai. "Lai" was originally a pictograph of wheat. In the Oracle bone inscriptions of Shang Dynasty, most of the characters of wheat were never along the grain, and a few of them were along the grain, which is the isomerism of wheat. The inscriptions on bronze in the Western Zhou Dynasty came from wheat bushes, but they have changed. Mai and Lai have similar original meanings. Same as "Mai". Today is a simplified word for "Mai".

The lower end was originally root-shaped, but in Oracle Bone Inscriptions, it has long been confused with human feet, so that the meaning of the word is difficult to explain. Later, it gradually appeared in bronze inscriptions, Xiao Zhuan in Qin Dynasty and Qin Bamboo Slips, and finally gradually evolved into regular script and simplified Chinese version of "Mai".
