What does Nacai mean? Yellow calendar.

The adoption of the yellow calendar refers to the ancient marriage custom of the Han nationality, which is the first of the "six rites". It is said that the man wants to marry the woman, and the man sends a matchmaker to the woman's house to propose marriage with gifts. If the woman is interested, the man will send a matchmaker to formally propose to her family and bring a certain gift, so it is called "accepting talents".

In today's words, "receiving a gift" means getting engaged and giving gifts, and then discussing the wedding date. Therefore, proper acceptance in the yellow calendar refers to a day suitable for holding a wedding ceremony.
