What should we do on the 18th day of the first lunar month in 2018?Get rid of rat infestation. Rats are the medium of disease transmission and often destroy utensils, food, clothes and disturb people's sleep. Before the Han Dynasty in my country, people were not used to keeping cats, so there was a serious rat problem. In "The Book of Songs·Bin Feng·July", there is: "Fume the rats in the curved room." And in "The Book of Songs·Dongshan", there is: "Sweep the curved room." The curved room is a rat hole. In addition, a conversation was mentioned in Han Feizi Wai Chu Shuo You Shang. Duke Huan of Qi asked Guan Zhong what he should worry about most in governing a country? Guan Zhong used the metaphor of the community rat and replied, "The community is made of wood and painted, and the rats take refuge there. If you fumigate it, the wood will burn; if you water it, the paint will be applied." These are all evidence that the ancients suffered from rat infestation. Later, people discovered that cats could catch mice, so they domesticated them as livestock, and the rat problem began to ease.During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, plague suddenly broke out in Tengyue, Yunnan. In the 20th year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu, rat infestation reappeared in Tanzhou, Guangdong, and soon spread to Shantou, Xiamen, Fuzhou and other places, killing countless people. Shortly thereafter, plague struck Northeast China twice again, killing tens of thousands of people. In the southwestern Sichuan and Guizhou regions, rats gather in pairs at night and openly venture out to attack humans, being the most rampant. On the 18th day of the first lunar month, the whole family mobilized to catch mice. When you get up in the morning, you can either set out cats to catch mice, use traps to lure them in, or find rat holes and seal them to eliminate the rat infestation forever. Finding things to do After the Lantern Festival, the New Year atmosphere gradually subsides and people begin to resume work. As the saying goes, "After the middle of the first lunar month, everyone looks for something to do." "Every family is having fun tearing up the hangings, and everyone is looking for the whereabouts of the deceased." This means that the New Year ends on the 18th day of the first lunar month. After that, farmers in the fields, scholars in school, and businessmen in businesses all start to work hard, returning to their old businesses or looking for better opportunities. This is called looking for something to do.
