What day is the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month?

The 28th day of the twelfth lunar month is the common name for the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month (the twelfth month) of the Chinese lunar calendar and is one of the traditional customs of the Chinese Spring Festival. Chinese folk songs about the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month include "On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, let the dough rise" and "On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, make rice cakes, steam buns and stick flowers on them." According to Chinese folk customs and traditions, on the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, every household will start preparing staple food for the New Year, whether it is making dough or steamed buns.

On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, people in Taiyuan city of Shanxi province steam "two baskets of cakes and steamed buns"; people in Hebei province steam jujube flowers to prepare as offerings to their ancestors on New Year's Eve; and people in Henan province also steam steamed buns and fry guta on the 28th day. People in Beijing let the dough ferment on this day and wait until the 29th to steam the steamed buns.
On the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, in addition to making dough, people also have to "stick flowers", that is, stick New Year pictures, Spring Festival couplets and window decorations. The custom of pasting Spring Festival couplets originated from the ancient "peach charms". The ancients believed that peach wood was a wood that could ward off evil spirits. "Dianshu" said: "Peach is the essence of the five woods, so it can suppress evil spirits." During the Five Dynasties, Meng Chang, the monarch of the Later Shu Dynasty, was fond of literature. He ordered people to write peach charms every year, which became the origin of later Spring Festival couplets. The words "New Year brings more blessings, and the festival is called Changchun" written on the peach charms became the first recorded "Spring Festival couplet" in Chinese history. Later, with the advent of papermaking, the custom of posting Spring Festival couplets using red paper instead of peach wood emerged. Every household pastes the word "Fu" of different sizes on their doors, walls, and lintels. Expressing our yearning for a happy life and our wishes for a better future.
