What are the customs of Jinan people?

One month after delivery is a "full moon". The "full moon" is the first day for newborns to get in touch with the outside world, and it is also the first day for women to complete the process of "confinement". So people used to attach great importance to this day. On that day, relatives and friends came to congratulate her and sent more baby clothes, longevity locks and other things; Others followed the money, wrapped in red paper, and wrote auspicious words such as "long life." On this day, the host family held a banquet to entertain the guests. On the day of the full moon, the area around Jinan is called "Nuo Sao Wo". On this day, the mother holds the baby back to her mother's house for a few days, so that the child can breathe fresh air, which is beneficial to the physical and mental health of the mother and child. On a sunny day, the husband's family cleaned up the house where his daughter-in-law had been confined for a month and hung the bedding and clothes. After the mother goes back to her mother's house, grandparents will send money to the children, wrap the money in red paper and tie it on the baby's chest with red thread. Back to the parents-in-law's house, the child's grandmother or other female elders took down the red envelope and sang, "Go, come, long live the boy (or Xiao Ni 'er). "In order to pray for the healthy growth of children, the custom of' wearing a hundred clothes' is also popular in old Jinan. Before the baby's full moon, relatives began to ask their neighbors for scattered cloth heads and splicing them into flower clothes for the baby to wear. Most of the clothes are big breasts and monk collars. There must be a piece of purple cloth on the clothes, which means that there will be more children and happiness in the future. In addition, Jinan used to have the custom of "eating a hundred meals". After the child can walk, let him take a small bowl to the neighbor's house to eat "a hundred meals", thinking that when the child grows up, he can have food and eat all over the world. Grasping the week, also known as "trying children" and "hawthorn birthday", is a custom to predict the future temperament, interest, future and career of a baby when it is one year old. On children's first birthday, parents and relatives will display all kinds of stationery, toys and daily necessities on the table for children to grab at will. People think that what a child grasps is related to his personality and future. For example, those who grab pen and ink will all be scholars in the future; Those who rob money are rich; Those who catch sticks grow up without food, and so on. The custom of grasping Zhou originated in the Northern Qi Dynasty. This custom can still be seen now, but young parents have no believers and only exist as a form of entertainment games. When a baby is breastfeeding, the child has no formal name. Adults call children "milk names" (also known as "nicknames", that is, milk names). The custom of naming has existed since ancient times. For example, Sima Xiangru's nickname is "Dog", Cao Cao's milk in the Eastern Han Dynasty is called "Shun", and the milk in the Three Kingdoms Liu Chan is called "Dou". This custom was more popular in the Song Dynasty and has been passed down to this day. In Jinan area, most men call children "children" and "boys" and girls "Neil". The naming of milk names should avoid using the names of elders and relatives, and auspicious words can be used as names, such as "dragon, auspiciousness and wealth"; You can also use "base names" to avoid disasters, such as "puppy", "two cats", "dog leftovers", "donkey eggs" and "ugly children" (mostly girls) and so on; There are also directly named after the rankings, such as "Lao San", "Little Bar" and "Woods". Others are afraid that children can't stand up and often call them "tie", "lock", "guard" and "stop", or men take female names and women take male names. In the past, it was generally believed that after children were frightened, their "souls" would be separated from the body. After the child is frightened, he has symptoms such as restless sleep, loss of appetite, diarrhea (green stool), convulsions and high fever. People think that the child has lost his soul. There are many ways to evoke spirits in Jinan. For example, the simplest way is to pat the ground hard at once, pat the child at the same time, and gently stroke the child's hair, saying, "You can't scare others or yourself by pulling your hair." "The dog is surprised, the cat is surprised, and my boy is not surprised." Then, while holding the child, he called the child's nickname: "XX, go home (go home)! "People who are seriously frightened have to wait until midnight to go to the street corner to" call the soul ",and some have to hold children's shoes or children's clothes. People in Jinan also call children crying at night "night crying". "In this case, adults will post the written night cries on the wall, tree or telephone pole on the street, which reads:" Yellow Emperor, Yellow Emperor, there is a night cry lang in my house (or the child is crying at night in the mother's room). Passers-by watched it three times and slept until dawn. "In order to pray the children don't cry at night. In the past, children generally recognized michel platini as their foster mother. Some families worry that their children can't raise much, so they let their children recognize a family with many children or a poor family as godparents; Others are superstitious about the fate of their children and parents, and find an "all-round person": or a person who lives with each other as a godparent; Of course, some parents get along well with each other and become parents. When you recognize michel platini's foster mother, you must choose an auspicious day to bring gifts to your in-laws, and let your children kowtow actively. You must also write a piece of "inheritance paper" with red paper and green edge, which says "Your government's" xianggong "adopted a door (referring to michel platini's surname) and named it" XXX ". On the head of the inheritance paper shaft, a long life lock should be tied with a red rope and hung in the bedroom of the adopted children to eliminate evil spirits. When adopting a mother, the child should drill through the foster mother's crotch, commonly known as "drilling the crotch", to show that he was born to the foster mother from now on. This custom still exists, but the engagement ceremony is very simple. -Zhang Jiping's custom of treating guests at Chinese banquets in old Jinan In the past, if people in old Jinan treated guests, people with conditions or closeness at home generally liked to stay at home, and those who were inconvenient or formal at home were in restaurants. In the 1930 s, Yanxitang felt at home because of its delicious food and the atmosphere of family life. Many people are proud to treat them here. They have a series of "signature dishes", such as milk soup family portrait, milk soup ordinary dishes, milk soup shrimp breast, milk soup fish belly, clear soup Chae Yeon, clear soup butterfly sea cucumber, clear soup imperial pen monkey head and so on.
