What does the paper-cut old man mean by picking peaches with his children in his arms?

Paper-cut old man holding a peach with a child means good luck.

Peaches have always been regarded as a symbol of good luck and longevity. People think that peach is the fruit of the immortal family, and it can live long after eating, so it has the reputation of Xiantao and longevity fruit.

"Monkey" is homophonic with "monkey". Symbolizes official transportation. Peaches represent longevity. Generally speaking, a jade monkey with a peach should be rich and live long.

Folk paper-cutting is good at combining all kinds of objects and images to produce ideal and beautiful effects. No matter whether one or more image combinations are used, they are modeled by "image implication" and "meaning conformation", rather than by objective natural forms. At the same time, they are also good at using metaphor and combining the agreed images to create various mascots to express their psychology. Pursuing auspicious metaphor has become one of the ultimate goals of image combination.
