The various festivals in the first month of the lunar calendar are coming right after the Spring Festival. Following the 2020 first month special topic of Shuimoxiansheng.com, let’s count how many important traditional festivals and customs there are in this month.What festival is on the twelfth day of the first lunar month in 2020?The twelfth day of the first lunar month is one of the traditional Chinese lunar festivals. Chinese folk activities on this day include hiding scissors, collecting old shoes, pinching mouse mouths, and setting up lantern sheds.According to Chinese folklore, the twelfth day of the first lunar month is the day when mice marry. Some also say that this day is the mouse’s birthday. So people created all kinds of "programs" around mice, which not only expressed the people's hatred for mice, but also drove away the hard work of the folks for a year. Knocking on every corner in the morning "Beat, beat, beat every corner. Nine out of ten mice will be blind. The one that is left with eyes popped out will have a radish flower growing in its eye!" On the morning of the twelfth day of the first lunar month, before the sun rose, aunts and grandmas from every household in Xu Zhuang Village brought their children to chant while hitting places where mice might hide with wooden sticks, including the holes in earth pits, the mouse holes in the corners, the cracks in the bricks at the base of the wall, the cloth shoes under the wooden cabinet, the livestock shed, the woodshed, the toilet... every corner in the house would be hit. Hidden scissors After breakfast, the wives and girls in the village would hide the scissors they usually used in drawers or under mattresses, and wrap the scissors with red ropes or red silk. According to the villagers of Xu Zhuang, neither adults nor children are allowed to use scissors on the Rat Festival. As long as the "clicking" sound of scissors is not heard, the "clicking" sound of mice eating food will not be heard in the house for the whole year. Collect old shoes At the same time, children from every household carried baskets and went door to door collecting old shoes, and the villagers were also happy to give away the "evil" (shoes). Normally, villagers would not sell their worn-out old shoes as scrap, but would wait until the Rat Festival to give them to children who came to collect them. Pinch the mouse mouth At noon, we make dumplings at home. The dumplings are made into the shape of mice, with mouths, ears, and tails, and green beans are used as eyes. The dumplings look like mice, very realistic, and are like pieces of dough art. On this day, every household makes dumplings because making dumplings is like "pinching a mouse's mouth". If the mouse's mouth is pinched to death, the mouse will not be able to "crunch" and eat things, and there will be "no mice in the house for the whole year". Burning rat holes On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, children would find a spacious place and pile up the old shoes they collected from each household into a "rat hole". The "rat hole" should be in the shape of a "mouth". Originally, two adobe bricks (now replaced with bricks) were placed on top to leave a vent. Two or three sesame stalks should be erected in the middle of the "mouth" to make it easier to burn after the "rat hole" is ignited. As soon as it got dark, the "rat holes" that had been piled up began to be set on fire by people accompanied by the deafening sound of gongs and drums, and the children danced around the blazing flames coming out of the "rat holes". Nozzle mouse ears and chew mouse eyes On the twelfth night of the first lunar month, every household has the habit of drinking millet or cornmeal porridge, which is meant to "blind the mouse's eyes" so that the mouse cannot see clearly. After dinner, people also fry peanuts, which means "frying (noising) the ears of deaf mice."
