What day is the second day of February?
Second, in connection with the solar terms of fright, the content of raising the dragon's head was increased, and it gradually evolved into a festival focusing on expelling pests and praying for a bumper harvest. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, there have been activities such as inviting dragons, smashing hoards, smoking insects in pancakes, killing rats by beating beams, and frying beans to win good news.
Painting dragons, also known as "taking money from dragons", "painting dragons from dragons" and "painting dragons to fill positions", used to be very popular, but now it has been replaced by dusting and hoarding goods. In Yuan Dynasty, Ouyang Xiu's "The Fisherman's Pride" has the sentence "In February, the capital moved to the wild in the spring, painting a dragon, gray and silver bed". Later, people usually sprinkle ash into the kitchen from the gate, and then surround the water tank for a week. This is called dragon attracting, and it is also sprinkled into the well with chaff, and then into the room from the well. The purpose of lucky dragon is to predict the increase of wealth, so it is called lucky dragon. When the dragon looks up, all kinds of pests dare not come out.
