Matters needing attention in cleaning day

1, you can rummage through the cabinets and clean them, but be careful not to damage the damaged items. If you are not careful, you should read a crime. The great god is absent, and the little god will not report your fault after you admit your mistake.

2. When sweeping the dust, we must pay attention to everything and leave no dead ends. According to the legend above, we must also prevent the three gods of death from leaving traces in some dead ends. Pay attention to modern appliances, ceilings, range hoods and doormats.

3. In ancient times, it was necessary to prepare green bamboo leaves with the ability to ward off evil spirits and clean up filth, and remove the gray cobwebs from high places. There are special brooms or other cleaning tools. If it is not a bamboo broom, pay attention to symbolic cleaning with bamboo leaves.

4. "Men don't Yue Bai, women don't offer sacrifices to stoves." But with the change of division of labor in modern society, many people in a family are women, and many people have made sacrifices to stoves. Twenty-three is not a man's sacrifice to the stove, so twenty-four cleaning must be done by men together. Reflect the integration of husband and wife, regardless of each other.
