The number of days from dawn to dusk is not fixed. The winter solstice in 2020 is December 21, and the number of days from dawn to dusk is December 25 (the day of Renyin). Therefore, the number of days from dawn to dusk will start four days after the winter solstice in 2020.
The nine-day cold winter is one of the widely spread customs among the Chinese people.
Counting the nine days means starting from the day of Ren that falls on the winter solstice (some say it starts from the winter solstice). Every nine days is counted as one "nine", and so on. As the saying goes “The hottest time of the year is in the dog days, and the coldest time is in the coldest days”. The coldest time of the year is the “Coldest Days”.
The nine cold days continue to be counted until "jiujiu" (nine nines), eighty-one days. At the end of the nine nines, peach blossoms bloom. At this time, the cold is over and the weather has become warm.
Due to the vast territory of my country, the climate varies greatly from place to place. Only some parts of my country correspond to the "ninety-nine days of eighty-one days, peach blossoms bloom, and spring is warm" on the day of Ren when the winter solstice falls, but not all parts of the country.
