When you count to nine "nine days" (998 1 day), spring will be deep and warm, and everything will be full of vitality. It's time for spring ploughing.

Law No.9 is passed down from mouth to mouth among the people in our country, which has a history but lacks records. As for when it originated, there is no exact information. In traditional culture, nine is the extreme number, the "highest yang" number and the largest number. The accumulation of "Zhiyang" means that Yin Qi is decreasing day by day, and it is tired to the end, which means that the cold is getting warmer and "the spring is deep".

Calculation method of the number nine

From the solstice of winter to the unhealed day of winter (after the winter, the first unhealed day is called "Jiaojiu", which means the beginning of cold), every nine days is a "nine", the first nine days are called "Yijiu", the last nine days are called "Erjiu", and so on, until "Jiujiu" and "Jin Jiu Peach Blossom", the weather will be warm. As the saying goes, "Summer solstice is three years old, and winter solstice is nine years old." . It is generally the coldest in April and September, which is the coldest period of the year; By the ninth five-year plan, the cold had disappeared and spring was blooming.

The correct algorithm of "counting nine" begins from winter to the first nonunion day in the future. Therefore, the specific date of "September" every year is not fixed, depending on the first nonyl day after the winter solstice. Another mistake is that the number nine is counted from the date of winter solstice, so the specific time of nine is fixed every year from the date of winter solstice, and each nine is fixed on the ninth day, 18 and the 27th day after winter solstice. The algorithm of counting nine from winter to day is wrong.

Zong Zong of the Liang Dynasty wrote in Jing Chu Sui Ji: "The winter solstice is 998 1 day, which is the end of cold." There are several nine songs all over the country, but the lyrics are slightly different. People all over the country have compiled various proverbs, ballads and fluency according to different climatic conditions, scenery characteristics, agricultural phenology and customs.

China folk widely circulated "99-year-old songs to relieve cold", commonly known as "99-year-old songs". There are many versions of 99 ballads. Version examples: 1929 did not shoot, walked on the ice in 3949, watched willows along the river in 5969, opened the river in 79, swallowed it in 89, and added 19 in 99, plowing cattle everywhere.
