What do you mean, 66th birthday?

The birthday of the elderly can be celebrated one day later, but not in advance.

The origin of the 66th birthday:

As the saying goes, "After sixty-six, Yan Xi will eat meat." On my 66th birthday, my daughter will buy pork. As long as the birthday girl has eaten pork, it doesn't matter.

"Six" is an auspicious word in China, and people hope it will succeed.

The ancients took intimacy as the difference and called it five clothes. For example, within five clothes, one plus one became six relatives.

This practice of adding one as one tenth before "Five",

Nature means more than half, so "six" also means more.

Such as "six streets and three cities", "three heads and six arms", "three pushes and six questions" and so on.

China ancients had stereoscopic thinking long ago. They believe that the universe is made up of

East, south, west, north, sky (above) and ground (below),

If people live in harmony with this hexahedral nature, they will feel very comfortable.

"Great Shun" is a good thing for Antai.

And Zuo Zhuan? There are clouds in seclusion for three years:

"Your righteousness, the trip of the minister, the grace of the father, the filial piety of the son, the love of the brother, the respect of the younger brother, the so-called LiuShun also. 」

"Sixty-six, you should eat sixty-six pieces of meat", which is a common saying of Shaoxing people.

It means that parents must be married by their daughters when they live to sixty-six.

Send 66 pieces of meat to eat.
