Folklore of the Spring Festival:
In ancient times, there was a monster called Nian, whose head was long and sharp and fierce. Nian lived at the bottom of the sea, climbed ashore on New Year's Eve every year, devouring livestock and hurting people's lives. It is said that Nian is most afraid of red, fire and exploding. Since then, every year on New Year's Eve, every family has posted red couplets and set off firecrackers to drive away the "Nian" beast; Every household is brightly lit by candlelight, and it is better to wait for the new year. In the early morning of the first day, we have to say hello to our relatives and friends and celebrate each other's safe passage through the Year.
In Archaean times, there was a fierce monster that lived in the deep mountains and forests. People called them Nian. Later, people gradually mastered the activity law of "Nian", which is to go to places where people live together every 365 days to taste fresh food, and the haunting time is after dark, and when the cock crows at dawn, they return to the mountains. After calculating the date of the "Year", the people regarded this terrible night as a gateway and called it "Year Pass". People have come up with a whole set of ways to pass the Spring Festival: every night, every household prepares dinner in advance, puts out the fire, ties up all the chicken pens and cowsheds, seals the front and rear doors of the house, and hides in the house to eat "New Year's Eve". Because of the ominous meaning of this dinner, it was very rich. In addition to having the whole family eat together to show harmony and reunion, it is also necessary to offer sacrifices to the ancestors before eating and pray for their gods' blessing. Spent the night safely. After dinner, no one dared to sleep, so they sat together and chatted with courage. It gradually formed the habit of staying up on New Year's Eve.
During the Spring Festival, people like to put portraits of two generals, Qin Qiong and Wei Chijingde, on their doors. Why? It is said that in ancient times, the King of Jinghe made a bet with a diviner, and was sentenced to death by the Jade Emperor. The King of Jinghe asked Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, to pardon him, and Taizong agreed. The next day, Emperor Taizong played chess with Wei Zhi, the outspoken minister. Wei Zhi suddenly fell asleep and beheaded the King of Jinghe in his dream. The ghosts of the King of Jinghe blamed Taizong for not keeping his word and often demanding his life. Emperor Taizong couldn't afford to get sick, so he swam to the underworld, was forgiven by the Ten Hades, and returned to Yang. This is the cause of The Journey to the West. Afraid that the King of Jinghe would come to seek the soul, let Qin Qiong and Wei Chijingde guard the door and be safe. Emperor Taizong felt sorry again, so he put two generals on the door and it was safe. Spread to the people, so the people also posted two generals.
as early as before the Qin and Han dynasties, there was a custom of hanging peach symbols on the left and right of the gate during the Chinese New Year. Taofu is two big boards made of peach wood, on which are written the names of the legendary deities "shentu (tu)" and "Yu Lei" to exorcise ghosts and suppress evil spirits. This custom lasted for more than 1 years. It was not until the Five Dynasties that people began to put the couplet on the mahogany board instead of the name of the deity. According to historical records, Meng chang, the master of the post-Shu Dynasty, inscribed the couplets on the bedroom door on New Year's Eve in 964 AD, namely "New Year's Eve in Qing Yu, Jia JieNo. Changchun", which is the earliest Spring Festival couplets in China. After the Song Dynasty, it has become quite common for people to hang Spring Festival couplets in the New Year. Because the appearance of Spring Festival couplets is closely related to peach symbols, the ancients also called Spring Festival couplets "peach symbols". In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of Ming Dynasty, strongly advocated couplets. After he made his capital in Jinling (now Nanjing), he ordered ministers, officials and ordinary people to write a pair of couplets and stick them on their doors before New Year's Eve. He personally wore casual clothes and went out to watch and have fun from door to door. At that time, scholars also regarded couplets as elegant pleasure, and writing Spring Festival couplets became a temporary social fashion. After entering the Qing Dynasty, couplets flourished in Qianlong, Jiaqing and Daoguang Dynasties, just as in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and many famous couplets appeared.
