Jiaojiu (number nine), also known as Dongjiujiu, is a folk solar term of the Han nationality. The number 9 starts at the end of the solstice in the early winter of the Gregorian calendar 65438+ every year. . "Liang Chao Shu Jing Chu Chun Qiu" records: "The winter solstice is 998 1 day, which is the end of cold." Count nine cold days, that is, from the solstice of winter, count a "nine" every nine days until the "99" of 81 days, and the weather will warm up. In fact, it is "99-99, plowing cattle everywhere"-90 days, which is 9 days.
