Does the winter solstice start counting the nine cold days?

The general saying is that the nine-day period starts after the winter solstice, but there is also a saying that the nine-day period starts from the winter solstice.
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.

The Origin of Winter Solstice

1. Ancient text records. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period more than 2,500 years ago, China had used a gnomon to observe the sun and determine the winter solstice, which is the earliest of the 24 solar terms and falls between December 21 and 23 of the Gregorian calendar each year.
2. The significance of the Winter Solstice. According to the "Book of Han", "On the winter solstice, the yang energy rises, the emperor's reign is long, so people celebrate..." That is to say, people began to celebrate the winter solstice to celebrate the arrival of the new year. The ancients believed that from the winter solstice, the yang energy of heaven and earth began to rise and become stronger, marking the beginning of the next cycle and an auspicious day.
