The old man's traditional saying, why put money under the pillow?

First of all, I feel that it is the Spring Festival after all. Giving you money means praying for you and celebrating that you are one year older. Secondly, it is to drive away evil spirits. Of course, this is just an unfounded answer, but the old people at that time believed this statement more. To put it bluntly, it also carries the good wishes of the old people for your health. I hope you are safe and healthy, and the old people will do it then.

It is said that money can drive away ghosts and evil spirits. On New Year's Eve, ghosts from the underworld came to the sun to have soup and rice. In order to prevent children from being attacked by ghosts, they will put lucky money under their pillows after sleeping. Children can get lucky money from adults during the New Year, but many poor families hide on New Year's Eve because they can't repay their debts and don't go home until midnight. The villagers call it "bean sprouts".

New Year's Eve is the last day for creditors to collect debts. Generally speaking, creditors are not allowed to collect debts after New Year's Eve. There is a spear in Xiagu Zhongxun Temple. After New Year's Eve, people will go to Zhongxun Temple to set off spears. When the spear sounds, the debt collectors will have to leave the village and stop collecting debts.

In order to avoid the debt on New Year's Eve, many interesting conversations were left. In a village, a family hid in the granary because they were poor and unable to repay their debts. Because in the dialect, the word "village" is homophonic with "warehouse". The creditor came to see people, and the family said that people were in the "warehouse". Creditors waited and waited. No one came back from the village and asked which one was in the village. The family said they didn't know, and they were still in the warehouse. After the creditor couldn't wait, he had to leave painfully.
