Is it a custom to insert a willow into a willow during the period of fright?

According to records, this custom in Liu Dai originated in the Spring and Autumn Period more than 2,600 years ago. He once saved Zhong Er, the son of the Jin Dynasty. When he became king, Jietui hid in Mianshan and refused to accept the title. Jin Wengong released Yamakaji and forced him out, and finally found Jiexiu burned to death under a willow tree.

So he called on the people of the whole country to ban fire on Dai Xiao, in memory of this righteous man who was not greedy for merit or gain. In the history, in fact, when Liu Dai became a game for children to welcome spring, no one cared whether this custom was to commemorate someone.

Everyone should wear willow, and willow branches should be inserted at the door of every household. Where did this custom come from? It is related to Liu Yong, a great poet in the Song Dynasty. It is said that Liu Yong lives a dissolute life and often travels between Huajie Liuxiang.

Farming production is closely related to the rhythm of nature, and the solar term of fright is of great significance in farming, which is the reflection of ancient farming culture on natural festivals. The so-called "spring thunder" means that when the spring thunder begins to sound, it wakes up the stinging insects that are dormant in the ground for the winter.

In some ancient places, people smoked the four corners of their houses with incense and wormwood to drive away "snakes, insects, mosquitoes and rats" and musty smell. Over time, it gradually evolved into the custom of shocking and beating villains to drive away bad luck. In addition, there are customs such as "covering the drum skin", "eating pears" and "offering sacrifices to white tigers to resolve right and wrong".
