Thirty-year-old nameless swelling,
On the first day of February, I was afraid of a big sore at the end of my brain.
On February 2 nd, I tied longan.
"taboo", there are all-day taboos and half-day taboos. The shortest thing is to avoid it before sunrise in the morning and lift it after sunrise. According to the old people, if you move in a taboo time, it will bring taboo diseases or bad consequences.
Twenty-three taboo tooth carbuncle, also known as horse fat, is an acute disease in children. It is mostly caused by infectious diseases such as measles and scarlet fever. The symptom is that some tissues of oral mucosa are ulcerated, black and necrotic, and fester outward, and in severe cases, coma occurs.

Twenty-four taboo stab the old rural heatable adobe sleeping platform, covered with reed mats or sorghum mats, and the mats are no longer covered with cloth.

For naughty children with bare bottoms, it is even more worrying for parents. Faced with this situation of being easily pricked, people use taboo pricking to get rid of it. If you don't move the needle today, you won't prick for a year.
Twenty-five days ago, it was said that there was a drought in the north for years, and there was no harvest, but the government still levied grain tax, and the poor were cornered, and countless people died of cold and hunger in the streets. At this time, a warehouse official who showed the government the grain moved to hide his heart and decided to open the warehouse on February 23. Afterwards, fearing that the government would investigate, they set fire to the warehouse on the 25th, and burned themselves in the warehouse. In order to commemorate this anonymous warehouse official, people designated this day as the Warehouse Filling Festival. In the rural areas of Zhaitang area, every family eats soybean rice this evening. Before eating, they put the rice into rice, noodle pots and miscellaneous grains jars filled with beans to indicate that they have filled the warehouse, hoping for a good harvest that year. It was forbidden to move the needle for half a day after this day. It is said that in this afternoon, black dragon was in the lower bound of evil spirits, and moving the needle would hurt his eyes.

The types of sticky cakes are Dahuang rice, Xiaohuang rice, sticky sorghum rice and glutinous rice. There are fried cakes, steamed cakes and fried cakes to eat. Eating steamed cakes alone often puts dates called jujube cakes. The way to make a stirred cake is to mix corn flour with potato pieces and elm leaves, so it's called a stirred cake. Sticky cakes and stirred cakes are sticky. I don't know who came up with this way to block the rat hole or block the rat in the hole. This practice is incomprehensible to modern people, but this custom has been passed down from generation to generation. Before dinner that day, the sticky cake or stir-fried cake should be filled up from the cylinder root, the bottom of the cupboard and the rat hole in the corner of the yard, and the whole family should sit around for dinner again. Don't move the needle from this afternoon to night. If you move the needle, you will get "rat sores".

According to the folklore of tying longan on February 2nd, the second day of the second lunar month is the day when the Dragon King in charge of sex and rain looks up. People pray for a good year with good weather, and naturally worship dragons. This morning, just before dawn, the farmer went to the podium or the river to get water. When he came back, the whole family first drank the water of "Dragon Head Up", indicating that he would go to the spring fever and grow up, and he would not get sick in a year. Adults and children still say: "On February 2nd, the dragon looks up, but the scorpion dragonflies don't come out", which means that the dragon will curb the poisonous insects that hurt people. Eating "brown" this morning means a good harvest this autumn. But don't eat "dough soup", saying that eating dough soup will cause hail disaster to crops. Don't move the needle this morning, for fear of hurting longan. As soon as the sun comes out, it's not taboo.
The above taboo proverb says: "Mom talks about children". "Mom talks about children, dogs stink, believe it or not, it's all up to you", which is another comment of the common people on "taboo".

We should follow the track of historical operation to explore and improve our comprehensive understanding of the development of folk culture.
