A good day to buy a shroud

Making shroud for leap month, seventy-three and eighty-four birthdays.

The ancients liked to make shrouds for the elderly in leap months. Influenced by the concept that "days increase years and people prolong life", the ancients thought that making shroud for the elderly in leap month meant blessing and prolonging life for the elderly. Modern people basically do not make shroud. Children buy shrouds for the elderly, basically in shroud shops, or choose shroud sold by merchants with good online reputation, excellent brand and good after-sales service.

There is a folk proverb called "Seventy-three, eighty-four Rebecca went uninvited", which holds that seventy-three and eighty-four are the hurdles in the life of the elderly.

Buying a shroud for the elderly on the birthday of "Kan" not only adds blessings to the elderly and prolongs their life, but also allows the elderly to pass the "73-84" barrier, thinking that as long as the elderly pass this barrier, they can live comfortably for a few more years, so the time to buy a shroud for the elderly is very particular.
