Follow Mr. Shui Mo to learn more about the customs of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar in 2020.What special meaning does giving apples on Christmas Eve represent?It is understood that the "Peace Apple" is made of imported apples with bright colors and good looks, mostly red snake apples and green snake apples. Of course, there are also domestic Red Fuji apples packaged as "Peace Apples". It is said that the "peace fruit" symbolizes peace and harmony. The reason why "apple" is chosen as the "peace fruit" is because of the pronunciation of the word "apple".It is said that the fruit vendors were inspired by young people to dress up the "Peace Apple". At the beginning, some young people bought one or two imported apples, then took them to gift shops to be packaged and prepared to give them as gifts to their good friends on Christmas Eve. This "business opportunity" was immediately captured by shrewd businessmen. Most of those who are interested in this new thing are teenagers. They all think it is worthwhile to spend 5 yuan to give a gift with the meaning of "peace" to their friends. It seems that while Christmas Eve is quietly passing the "peace fruit" from hand to hand, it is also conveying a beautiful blessing. However, the custom of giving Christmas apples on Christmas Eve is said to be a Chinese custom only. Because Chinese people pay more attention to homophones, for example, on the wedding night, peanuts, red dates and lotus seeds are placed under the quilt, which means "early birth of a son (dates)". Christmas Eve is the night before Christmas, Christmas is on December 25th, and Christmas Eve is the night of December 24th. The “ping” in “apple” has the same pronunciation as the “ping” in “peace”, so the Chinese people attach the auspicious meaning of “peace” to apple. So there was a custom of giving apples on Christmas Eve. Giving an apple represents the sender’s blessing to the receiver for a safe and peaceful new year. What else can you give as a gift on Christmas Eve 2020?Top 1: Movie tickets <br /> Recommendation: A very thoughtful gift for best friends and boyfriends and girlfriends. Prepare two movie tickets, watch a popular movie, and enjoy the touching moment while eating popcorn. Don’t choose a sad movie, it’s better to choose a delicate and beautiful one. Of course, if there is a tomboy in it, just choose one, she is too thick-hearted to mind!Top 2: Flowers <br /> Recommendation: Many girls will be moved by flowers, and friends will make bets with each other, such as "If he gives me flowers on Christmas Eve, I will agree to him." Don't think this is a lie. There are many people who have won the hearts of beautiful women with flowers sold at subway entrances for 20 yuan each. Even the most simple-minded girl would not choose broccoli over roses. This is the reality of society. Top 3: Scarf <br /> Recommendation: If it is a snowy day, besides being beautiful and romantic, you will also feel: very cold, bone-chillingly cold! A suitable scarf, which you put on the other person yourself, the warm scene is like an idol drama, with the background blurred, right? When choosing, pay attention to your observation of your partner's favorite colors and styles, which will come in handy at this time. Top 4: Candy <br /> Recommendation: Candy with beautiful packaging is a great gift for friends. You know, chocolate is not just for Valentine's Day. |
