Can a daughter who got married on June 6, 2018 go back to her parents’ home? What are the taboos?
As the Chinese saying goes, "Filial piety is the first of all virtues." Logically speaking, a married daughter is no longer considered a member of the family, but many married daughters still return home often to visit their families. The wind and rain in June, drop by drop, hit the earth in midsummer. Light puffs of rain and mist dance across the earth. The fortune teller website takes you to appreciate every day of the sixth lunar month of 2018.Can a daughter who got married on June 6, 2018 go back to her parents’ home?June 6th is known as the "Return to Mother's Home Festival" in southern Shanxi. Legend has it that during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Hu Yan, a minister of Jin, was so arrogant that he angered his relative Zhao Shuai to death. One year the State of Jin suffered a disaster, and Hu Yan went out to distribute grain. He promised to return home on June 6th to celebrate his birthday. The son-in-law decided to take advantage of Hu Yan's birthday celebration to assassinate his father-in-law in order to avenge his father's death. When the daughter learned about this, she rushed back to her parents' home to report the news. When Hu Yan returned from distributing grain, he saw the suffering of the people and regretted not listening to the advice of his relatives and hated himself for having done something wrong. Not only did he not blame his son-in-law, he also publicly admitted his previous mistakes. From then on, on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, Hu Yan would bring his daughter and son-in-law back home for a reunion. It was spread to the common people who followed and it became a custom. In some places, on June 6th, married girls, young and old, have to go back to their parents' homes to rest in the summer. “On June 6th, invite Auntie”, also known as “Auntie’s Day”, seems to have a certain connection with this legend.What are the taboos on June 6, 2018?Watermelon purchase prohibited <br /> Starting from the first day of June, watermelon purchase is the exclusive privilege of families with funerals.
