What does it mean to throw yellow money all the way in the countryside and bury duck eggs in front of the grave?

This is a feudal superstition. Every place has its own saying. I think it's to make way for the dead, and to plant willows in front of the grave. Don't go to the underworld, which is homophonic with "stay". It means to stay, and it is difficult for people to leave, so it is "stay". Not only did people die, but in ancient times, there were also willows inserted outside roadside pavilions and along the bow of the river. In addition, willow has a strong vitality, as the saying goes: "If you have the heart to plant flowers, you will not grow them." Wicker lives when it is inserted into the soil, where it is inserted, where it lives, and when it is inserted year after year, it becomes cloudy everywhere.

Folding willows as gifts also means wishing friends a smooth and prosperous life in a foreign land. There is a sentence in Liu Yong's "Yulinling", "Where do you wake up tonight? Yang Liuan Xiaofeng has a broken moon. " It can be seen that heartbroken people are often sent here, and willow trees have become a shade. Wang Zhihuan's "Farewell", "Willow and Dongfeng Tree, Green and Jade River. Recently, I have been struggling because I have left more. "I also mentioned the relationship between farewell and folding willows. It is said that during the Huang Chao Uprising, it was stipulated that "the Qingming period should be marked by Dai Liu". After the failure of the uprising, the custom of wearing willow was gradually eliminated, and only inserting willow prevailed.

Another legend is related to Liu Yong, a great poet in the Song Dynasty just mentioned.

It is said that Liu Yong lives a dissolute life and often goes back and forth in Huajie Liuxiang. Geisha at that time all loved their talents and were proud of being favored by Liu Yong. However, because of his bad life, Liu Yong was not allowed by his official career all his life. Although he passed the Jinshi, he died in poverty in Xiangyang. His funeral expenses were all raised by the singer who admired him. Every year, in Tomb-Sweeping Day, singing girls stick willow branches in his grave as a memorial, which has become a custom over time.

But this custom also existed in the Tang Dynasty. Wearing willow branches can get rid of the harm of poisonous insects when offering sacrifices by the river on March 3 in Tang Dynasty. After the Song and Yuan Dynasties, the custom of inserting willows was very popular in Tomb-Sweeping Day. People came back for an outing and inserted willows at home to avoid insect pests. Whether recorded in folklore or historical records, Tomb-Sweeping Day's willow planting is always related to avoiding diseases and epidemics. As the climate gets warmer during the Spring Festival, all kinds of germs begin to multiply, and people can only hope to shake willow branches in the case of poor medical conditions.
