The Chinese nation is a nation with a long history and culture, and civilized etiquette has a long history. Even now, civilized etiquette is still a moral constraint on people's behavior. Although some common sayings that have been passed down to this day often wear the cloak of superstition, these summaries of people's lives in the past have formed a convention. Today, Lao Li heard the saying "Long live without smoke, mourning without replenishment, joy without umbrella." What does this mean? Don’t worry, Lao Li will talk to you about this common saying.
First of all, this is "longevity without smoking", which means to celebrate the old man's birthday and not to send cigarettes. In daily communication, especially men, people will look more friendly when handing out cigarettes to each other. Especially when relatives and friends are together, they look even closer when they hand over a cigarette. But why don’t the elderly give cigarettes when they celebrate their birthdays? It turns out that medical conditions were relatively poor in the past, and once you get older, it means you are one step closer to death. The pronunciation of the word "Yan" is very similar to the word "Yan" that is so cool. At the birthday party, the old man will be unhappy when he hears the word "Yan". In order not to make the elderly angry and to be auspicious, people gradually stopped sending cigarettes on birthday celebrations.
Besides, this "die is not supplemented", the surface means that the funeral has ended, and it is not possible to supplement the money. Funeral In the past, people attached great importance to and were taboo. Generally, relatives and friends who were notified would arrive at the scene on the day of the funeral. If you miss it, it cannot be "replenished". People think this is unlucky and is also disrespectful to the deceased. Therefore, there is the saying "die but not to be replenished".
Finally, I said this "whether you are happy or not", which means that you cannot give me an umbrella when you get married and have weddings. Why is this? In the past, people thought that the pronunciation of this "umbrella" was the same as "san". At this time, giving an umbrella was a bit like breaking up new people. Therefore, in order to be happy and not make the owner angry, and at the same time, we also seek good luck, so we cannot give an umbrella when getting married. But Lao Li has indeed seen newlyweds who get married and hold umbrellas, all of which are festive red umbrellas, so modern people have begun to abandon some superstitious statements in the past.
Finally, Lao Li wanted to say that there were many taboos in folk weddings and weddings in the past. Although some were superstitious statements, it would be better to abide by these taboos in order to give the owner auspiciousness. Don’t ignore these taboos and end up making the owner unhappy after spending money. This will not be worth the loss. Friends, have you heard any interesting sayings? Come and discuss with Lao Li!
