In ancient times, what did a woman mean by putting her hair up?

Since the Zhou Dynasty, women have been more than 15. If they have been promised to get married, they must take gifts, put their hair braids on their heads and clip them with hairpins to show their adulthood and sense of belonging. If you are 15 years old, you can make a gift even if you are not allowed to get married. Mother is the owner of the gift. Guests are forbidden three days before the ceremony, and guests stay the day before. The guests choose virtuous and polite women among those who are in favor of marriage.

As a girl's coming-of-age ceremony, the bride price is also a ceremony to show adulthood, just like the man's crown ceremony, and as far as the procedures of raising gifts are concerned, it is basically the same as the crown ceremony. Noble women usually receive adult education in the palace or imperial clan, and are endowed with "women's virtue, women's appearance, women's merits and women's words", which is a skill that a daughter-in-law must have to treat people, serve her aunts and uncles and do needlework. Later, the teenage mother applied for precepts to teach them by ethics, which was called "teaching tea". When a woman is fifteen, she is called "peace".

Extended data:

Salute age:

Zhou Li and ancient customs are about fifteen years old, and twenty years old at the latest. Considering the development of the times and the adjustment of the meaning of gifts, girls should study like boys and finish their studies. Therefore, it is more appropriate to put this time after graduating from high school 18 years old.

Tribute date:

The third day of the third lunar month-Daughter's Day (Shangsi Festival). This is a China festival that originated more than 2,000 years ago, but it is only circulated in Japan and South Korea at present. At present, "Daughter's Day" has become one of the five major festivals in Japan. Therefore, it is not only a question of traditional etiquette, but also of great significance to the revival of national festivals.
