Therefore, the day before Double Ninth Festival in 2019 is not an auspicious day for engagement! What kind of wine should we drink on Double Ninth Festival?Drink "chrysanthemum wine" on Double Ninth Festival.Jiujiu is homophonic with "long", which means "long" and "wine", hence the saying that Jiujiu should drink chrysanthemum wine. In the golden month of September, chrysanthemums bloom proudly in the frost. Literati call September the "Chrysanthemum Month", common people call chrysanthemums "Nine Flowers", and Beijing regards chrysanthemum as one of its city flowers. Due to the unique quality of chrysanthemum in resisting cold weather, it has become a symbol of vitality. It has unusual cultural significance to the ancients, who believed it to be a "longevity prolonger" and "immortality grass" that can make people stronger as they age. In ancient times, chrysanthemum wine was brewed during the Double Ninth Festival of the previous year specifically for the Double Ninth Festival of the following year. On September 9th, people pick newly opened chrysanthemums and some green branches and leaves, mix them with the grain they are going to make wine, and then use all of them to make wine, which they will drink on September 9th of the following year. Legend has it that drinking this wine can prolong one's life. The "Jingchu Sui Shi Ji" states: "On September 9, wearing dogwood, eating lotus ears, and drinking chrysanthemum wine will make you live longer." In the Ming and Qing dynasties, people added a variety of herbs to chrysanthemum wine, making it more effective. The preparation method is: decoct chamomile juice, use koji and rice to make wine, or add Chinese medicinal materials such as rehmannia, angelica, and wolfberry. There is a clear record of this in "Eight Notes on Following Life" written by Gao Lian, which states that chrysanthemum wine is a very popular "fitness drink". What are the taboos of engagement?(1) Avoid using unlucky names in betrothal giftsIn the old days, after the man’s family selected an auspicious date, they would bring gift money and gifts to the woman’s family 15 to 20 days before the wedding. Generally, this ceremony is very grand, because the amount of the gift the man gives to the woman not only reflects how much he values the woman, but also reflects the financial status of his family. Each item in the betrothal gift should have an auspicious name. For example, during the Sui and Tang dynasties, there were nine fixed betrothal gifts, including cassia bark, Jiahe, donkey-hide gelatin, cattail leaf, red reed, double stones, cotton wool, longevity thread, dry lacquer, etc. Each item has the meaning of blessing the couple's love to last forever. (2) Avoid giving betrothal gifts in odd numbers The number should also be even rather than odd, because even numbers are a symbol of good luck and there is an old saying among the people that "good things come in pairs". The odd number is an unlucky symbol and is therefore taboo.
