The Origin of Nianliu
It is said that four or five hundred years ago, located in the middle and lower reaches of the Jianjiang River riverside towns such as Gaozhou City, Huazhou City, Wuchuan City (Mei) and other towns have formed a commercial center, handicrafts are developed, near the countryside is also an agriculturally developed region, engaged in the work of the agricultural equipment and wood, fish, salt and other items trafficked between the urban and rural areas, and some farmers gradually away from farming into the townspeople. As a result, the distribution center of commodities formed in the riverside for thousands of years gradually expanded the area of the city, and the local rural people also became the people of the streets. Gaozhou towns, Hazhou towns, Zhenlong towns, Wuchuan Meicheng towns from three days a pike to day all pike market change, business guilds will engage in some commercial activities to promote the exchange of goods. Ming Dynasty, the Jianjiang basin around the city and countryside has been fused by the Han Slang culture and then all Han, the Central Plains immigrants and officials from the north to promote the culture of the Central Plains, will sacrifice the main folk festival of the gods of the earth and grain fire (temple fair) to the local community, and the local ancient Slang people passed down the ghosts and gods of the culture gradually merged to form the sacrifice of the stove, burning stove fire, swimming temple god, on the mountain of daggers, across the sea of fire, the cannons, send the god of pestilence, burn the paper boat, inserted the field flags, send the lucky stickers, A series of customs were formed, such as sacrificing the stove, burning paper boats, inserting field flags, sending lucky stickers and lanterns. This custom also became a kind of village celebration and recreational activity at that time. Village celebrations to attract townspeople, business celebrations to attract people in the countryside, with part of the countryside into the line of businessmen, with part of the city side of the land into the street, with the city and the countryside frequent, many people think: the village temple agricultural celebrations and the town of business celebrations combined with the city and the countryside have cultural and recreational activities, how good ah.
Said Gaozhou City, a farmer turned street people named Gao Huayen, early 20s with his father, Gao Sheng will be the northern mountainous areas of Maoming County, the production of timber (mainly cedar) through the Jianjiang River waterway rafting mode of transportation, trafficked to the city of Huazhou and Wuchuanmei city to sell, but also from these places with the boat back to the other items for resale, after many years of operation, the family is well-to-do. Gao Huanian's grandparents were immigrants from the north and knew the connotation of the culture of the Central Plains and understood the culture of the ancient slang people. In the course of his business, he met a man named Jin Hecheng, who was an oracle in the city of Huazhou, and made friends with Wu Xian, a member of the Li ethnic group who was the same age as his father, in the town of Meicheng. Wu Xian lived in a mountain village by the sea and was engaged in boat transportation, coming to Mei to sell goods in his hometown through the river and the sea. After a long time, they got to know each other and Gao Sheng and Wu Xian became brothers. One day, Wu Xian invited Gao Sheng's father and son to drink on his boat and called out his daughter to pour wine. Gao Huaynian fell in love at first sight with the beautiful Wu woman. She also made secret glances at Gao Huaynian. The girl's name was Wu Mei, and she knew how to read and write. Since Gao Sheng and Wu Xiancheng are sworn brothers, Gao Huaynian and Wu Meilu are also known as brother and sister. Gao Huaynian's love for her was surging, but he didn't dare to offend the rules of brotherhood and sisterhood, and didn't dare to tell his father about the marriage proposal. After three months of suffering, Gao Huazhou reveals his feelings to Jin Hecheng, an oracle in Huazhou City. Jin Hecheng is willing to make a beautiful thing, a little thought, told Gao Huanian in the first month of the 15th Lantern Festival, invited Wu Xian father and daughter and his village of many villagers to come to enjoy the lanterns, by him to talk about the marriage.
Gao Huayen told his father the words of the gold oracle, and said that this can enhance friendship, but also to promote the urban and rural people Jiang Hai people to and from, so that business is booming. The first time I saw this, I thought it would be a good idea for me to go back to the old days, when I was a kid. On the day of the Lantern Festival, Wu Xian with his daughter Mei example and the village old eight people to the Gao family feast. During the banquet, he said that three days later, on the 18th day of the first month, it would be the temple festival of his seaside village, which was different from the Lantern Festival on the street. The gold oracle immediately told Wu Xian to be courteous, and asked Gao Sheng father and son to bring him and his business friends to celebrate. However, Wu Xian said that the village was too simple to receive the honored guests. The gold oracle suggested to Gao Sheng: in the plum ...... >>
The origin of the New Year's Example One theory: according to legend, the "New Year's Example" in Zhanjiang is also derived from the Lantern Festival. Since the Han and Tang dynasties, the cultural practices of the Central Plains gradually infiltrated the western land, the New Year and the Lantern Festival, the custom of holding lamps and playful play is also accepted, and local customs to celebrate the harvest, pray for the day of the combination of rituals, and gradually evolved into the present grand and warm, very much valued by the villagers of the folk festival. One says: it is actually a combination of the Lantern Festival, temple fairs, Zhanjiang and other places where ancestors migrated and landed on the anniversary of the festival. One says: the annual routine and Mrs. Xian has a certain connection. Nianliu activities by the Sin family rituals and prayers for blessings and rise, after a long evolution into today's Nianliu. From the Southern Dynasty to the Sui Dynasty, the Holy Mother of Lingnan, Mrs. Xian was an influential figure in the region, who made outstanding contributions to the maintenance of national unity and national solidarity, and was hailed by Premier Zhou Enlai as "the first Chinese heroine". The statue of Mrs. Xian is among the deities used in the annual ritual of "touring the gods". It can be seen that her status in the hearts of the local people, as lofty as God. The local people so honor a patriotic heroine, but also more or less reflect a kind of heroism and patriotism in their thinking. Perhaps Mrs. Xian as a god just extended the practice of ancestors, to worship Mrs. Xian is only seen as a form of annual routine. But the kind of cultural connotations, is inextinguishable. Mrs. Xian's culture makes the annual rituals more historically significant, and it passes on not only the feudal superstitious ideas, but also a humanistic spirit with positive significance. Objective analysis, the year and the Lantern Festival is different, the main difference is that: First, the year is not a unified day, it is more concentrated in the lunar month to February, and "turn over the autumn" year (in the autumn harvest held a month later, mostly in the lunar calendar from March to November) is every month, a few places in a year will also be held twice the year. The festival is usually held for one day in a village, and in some places it is held for two or three days. The Lantern Festival is fixed on the 15th day of the first month of the lunar calendar, after this day is not called Lantern Festival. Second, different beliefs, the Lantern Festival called on the Yuan Festival, and the Taoist belief that the three elements, when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, "Taiyi God" ritual activities are scheduled for the first month of the fifteenth. (Taiyi: the god who dominates everything in the universe). When Sima Qian created the "Taichu Calendar", the Lantern Festival was already recognized as a major festival. And the year example of widespread religious beliefs, it is worshipped by the gods of Taoism, the three gods, but also the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy, the native Xian Tai Fu, the land, the land of the gods, the King of Hong to the ancestors, the tree gods, ghosts and so on. Third, the Lantern Festival is to eat Lantern Festival, burning lamps, etc., the annual example of no such habits, in ancient times, the annual example of focusing on the countryside to exorcise demons and ghosts in the ceremony. Fourth, the prevalence of the region and ancient slang overlap with the region of life, with a unique uniqueness, is not available in other folklore. Lantern Festival is a wide range of regions, is a multi-ethnic festival. The so-called "Nianliu", can be interpreted as a yearly example, also known as the proverbial "meal period". After the Spring Festival, the Nianliu in Maoming and other places will start one after another. The so-called "Nianliu", can be interpreted as a yearly example, also known as the proverbial "meal period". People in Maoming have the saying "Nianliu is a big year", it can be said that "Nianliu" is the first big festival in rural Maoming. In fact, "Nianliu" is just a general term for festivals with the same regional characteristics, not all the places where Nianliu is done are accustomed to call Nianliu as Nianliu, Maoming, Zhanjiang City and Suixi are generally called Nianliu or "Lantern Festival", and the customary designation of the other places are different, for example, Leizhou is called Youren or Lantern Festival. Other places have different customary titles, for example, Leizhou called tourists or Lantern Festival, Xuwen called on the military slope, haunted the military slope or tour God, Lianjiang called tour God or tour flower street and so on. Maoming local "New Year's Eve", can be said to come from the "Lantern Festival". The Lantern Festival, as a traditional festival in China, refers to the fifteenth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. This night there is the custom of watching the lanterns, "the east wind at night release flowers thousands of trees" describes the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival scenario, so the Lantern Festival is also known as the Festival of Lights or on the Yuan Festival. Maybe it is the creation of the people of Maoming, the festival time staggered, it became a "New Year's Example", mainly eating and drinking. The annual festival period starts from the fifth day of the first lunar month and lasts until the end of February. Maonan has a saying "the earliest Huangzhu, the latest Ai house", is that Gao Shan Township, Huangzhu Village on the seventh day of the first month will do the annual routine, while the public town of Ai house land is February 28 to do the annual routine. The staggering of the dates of the New Year's celebrations in each village is to make it easier for relatives and friends to get together with each other. Before the reform and opening up, rural people did not have such a lively and grand New Year's celebration as they do now. At that time, the production team to dry fish ponds, kill a few pigs, members of the community to receive back a few pounds of fish, a few pounds of meat, and then kill a chicken to do the dishes, even if it is sumptuous. After the reform and opening up, people's standard of living has improved, do the annual example is more and more grand, lively. General family also set up three, five tables; rich people set up dozens of twenty tables, eating is not just chicken, duck, fish, meat, but "flying in the sky, swimming in the sea," the mountains and the sea, all kinds of food. To do the annual example is who has more guests, guests of high level, the door parked car more, the host's face is big. Explore ...... >>
The origin of the custom of the year example in the western region of Guangdong In China's many traditional festivals, the Spring Festival can be considered the most lively. However, in the western Guangdong Lingnan area, after the Spring Festival there is still a special festival to celebrate, that is, with local characteristics of folk culture and customs - Nianliu.
New Year's Eve is one of the grandest festivals of the New Year in Maoming and Zhanjiang regions of Guangdong (including Wuchuan[1]), and in the countryside, there is a saying that "New Year's Eve is bigger than the Spring Festival", and it is also one of the most distinctive festivals in the western part of Guangdong. During the Lunar New Year, every house is decorated with lanterns and lights, the streets of villages and towns are decorated with colorful buildings, colorful corridors and galleries, the roadsides are filled with colorful flags, the sound of firecrackers and gongs and drums rise and fall, and all kinds of folk art performances are presented to the public to the best of one's ability. Cantonese opera, movies, songs and dances, puppet shows, tea-picking operas, miscellaneous operas, and all kinds of recreational activities were presented. Among them, Cantonese opera is the most popular. Cantonese opera, commonly known locally as "big opera", is a must-have performance on the New Year's Day in various places. It is usually performed for several days before and after the New Year's Day, and is watched by a steady stream of spectators. In addition, the lion dance is also a must on the day.
Nianli, as the name suggests, is an annual event, in which a village does "Nianli" on a fixed day of the year. The legend of "Nianliu" originated from the "Lantern Festival", but the time frame of "Nianliu" is much wider than the Lantern Festival to choose to do in the Lantern Festival or before and after the Lantern Festival. The majority of the "New Year's Regulations" are set around the Lantern Festival or the Lantern Festival, and the dates are different from place to place due to the differences in geographic location and clan names. A village's "New Year's Example" is generally one day, and in places where it is lively and grand, it generally extends to two or three days, until around the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there are still villages that do the "New Year's Example" (as early as the second day of the new year, and as late as in November or February). Do "Nianliu" such a custom, in Guangdong Province and even the country is not common, so, "Nianliu" is when it originated? According to Maoming City Records, "'Nianliu' is only unique to the villages in the Jianjiang and Luojiang river basins in western Guangdong, and was very popular in the Qing Dynasty. The 'Nianliu' is an activity of the local folk to honor the gods, visit the gods, worship the gods of the earth and grain, and pray for good weather, prosperity, and peace of the nation". The "Nianliu" is actually an expanded version of the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival, the temple fair, and also the anniversary of the ancestors' migration and settlement. The greatest purpose of the "Nianli" is to honor the gods, and the "Nianli" is first and foremost for the gods. "During the Nian Ri, various folk art performances are performed to the gods to the best of their ability. In the festival, people try their best to please God, pander to God, in order to win God's heart, to get a year of good weather, a good harvest, people and animals, which is the people's good wishes! In ancient times, people's productivity was extremely low, and their ability to master nature was weak, therefore, the fear of God was very deep. Now, the "New Year's Eve" still continue to pass, the color of God is still very strong, but now the "New Year's Eve" has been not only for God to pass, people can also be used to entertain themselves, Wuchuan City, the people by virtue of the "New Year's Eve" and make a lot of money. New Year's Eve" and make a big "investment" article, to engage in "a section of a", a section is "Wuchuan City Lantern Festival of Folk Art," a section is "Wuchuan City Economic and Trade Fair", which is "cultural stage, economic and trade opera".
During the New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers accompanied by the sound of gongs and drums, home lights, village and town streets decorated with colorful buildings, colorful corridors, galleries, build flower bridges, flower towers, dress up floating color, clay sculpture, etc., a variety of folk art performances to do their best to offer to the public. A village New Year's Eve, the people of surrounding villages come to see the fun and excitement, every family feast to entertain friends and relatives, at this time, the host knows the guests with the host does not know the guests have come, the host is not outside, all warm hospitality to greet the tea and rice, we will soon become one, unrestrained conversation and laughter, Wuchuan people are also left to the guests of the hospitality of a good impression. In the past, the countryside, the narrow social circle of young people, "annual" has played the role of "Valentine's Day", y loved by young people. Every year, young men and women, walking the streets, one to two, gradually familiar with the marriage without others to worry about.
Over the "New Year's Eve" time, every family widely extended guests, from morning to night non-stop feast friends and relatives, guests with the arrival of the food. Whose home to the more guests, who parked the most cars in front of the door, whose face is the more honorable; if the door is cold, it will be looked down upon. Rich people are doing this "annual example": their "annual example" than the average family wedding banquet and more sumptuous, the expenses are also large, their table is full of delicacies, delicacies, expensive wine. A table costing less than a thousand dollars, more than three thousands, a day down, *** set up more than ten tables, you have to spend tens of thousands of dollars. Rich people do so "annual", is not a big loss? Not also, they will not do all the loss of money, because the local party and government cadres are their "guests", they ate the "annual ...... >>
The legend of the New Year's Eve "New Year's Eve" is very lively and joyful as the traditional New Year's Eve, the difference is that the local people look at it as more than a New Year's Eve. The cultural connotation of "Nianliu" is unknowingly y engraved in the hearts of the local people, that is, Mrs. Xian's culture.
People eat for days, "New Year's Eve" the day of the family are slaughtered pigs and killed chickens and ducks to the square or the village entrance to set out together to show, they call this form of "pendulum Qiao Qiao", "pendulum Qiao Qiao" is "New Year's Eve", "pendulum Qiao Qiao", "pendulum Qiao Qiao", "pendulum Qiao Qiao", "pendulum Qiao Qiao", "pendulum Qiao Qiao". "It is the first program on the day of the "New Year's Regulations", and people wait for the statue of Mrs. Xian, the goddess of the year, to be invited early in the morning next to their own "biaoqiao" position. --The statue of Mrs. Xian. When worshipping, in the thick smoke of firecrackers, you can see that the crowd of worshippers include not only the elderly, middle-aged people, but also young people and children, the scene is very spectacular. It is said that the "biaoqiao" is to see whose pig is fat, whose chickens and ducks are big, and also to invite Mrs. Xian to come home to celebrate the New Year with us.
"New Year's Eve" activities, "initially horseback riding, archery, martial arts, and later interpreted as a tour of the gods, theater." One of them is to invite the idol of the god and carry it through the streets of villages and towns. If the custom of "touring the gods" is explained in a superstitious way, it is not scientific.
We found that the statue of the god in the "annual ritual" always has the sculpture of Mrs. Xian, a figure from the North and South Dynasties more than 1400 years ago. When the "Tour of Gods" passes through people's houses, firecrackers are fired and fireworks are blown in honor of the deity. Visiting, the townspeople said, "the annual routine" contains three layers of meaning: one is to invite Mrs. Xian to bathe, change clothes. Because Mrs. Xian during her lifetime every holiday to come out to patrol, so the people in this area will customarily take her back to her mother's home to eat with everyone for New Year's Eve. Eating, guests whether they know or not, the more the better, in order to show that there are people, the intention of the family's prosperity. The second is to invite Mrs. Xian out for a tour to see the changes in people's lives in her hometown and to thank Mrs. Xian for bringing prosperity to herself. Third, today's "tour of the gods" is also a form of evolution in the past in order to defend against foreign aggression and show the power of their own villages.
From the historical data, Mrs. Xian was already an influential figure in the local area. The "annual" activity was initially by the Sin family and the rise. Historical sources say: "Mrs. Xian's descendants, they according to the emperor that year on the Feng family rituals and tours of the gods when the licensing of the mouth, can be organized in 12 trombones, each time 12 consecutively hit the gong, 12 consecutively fire the sound of the cannon. Especially at the Lantern Festival, when Mrs. Xian went out to visit the old city, the subsequent procession was several hundred meters long, with flags, gongs and drums, and firecrackers, and the atmosphere was lively and emotional."
Now the cause of this "annual" activities, although no people care, and few people to explore its origin. Just as people every year on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar to hold dragon boat races, packaged rice dumplings to eat, to commemorate the same Qu Yuan, this custom is through the long-term evolution, in people's lives and gradually formed the current customs and habits. And the evolution of the process although there is no historical record, but there are still traces.
From this reasoning, the people in this area not only take the "annual routine" as a custom, and customary statue of Mrs. Xian as a god. This is a form of commemoration of Mrs. Xian that has evolved over thousands of years. However, the local people regard the "New Year's Eve" as more important than the New Year, which is inseparable from the contribution of Mrs. Xian to the economic and cultural development of Lingnan.
Her contribution to the Lingnan area at that time. Even the stabilization of the situation of the entire Central Plains has a pivotal role, and her spirit has also had a great impact on future generations. In the thousands of miles of mountains in the Lingnan land, Mrs. Xian has long been the people's beloved idol, believe in the gods. This is one of the factors that the local people regard the "New Year's Eve" as more important than the New Year, perhaps, this is a form of Mrs. Xian's culture.
"Nianliu" and the time
"Nianliu" time varies, which is still a very unique custom in China's folk festivals.
The "Nianli" and the traditional New Year have the same meaning of blessing and blessing, the difference is: the counties (cities), towns, villages over the "Nianli" from the first day of the New Year to the 30th day of the 12th month of the Lunar Calendar are different times, this peculiar cultural phenomenon is also related to Mrs. Xian, who was the first woman in the Chinese New Year, and the first woman in the Chinese New Year, who was the only woman in the Chinese New Year. This peculiar cultural phenomenon is also related to Mrs. Xian.
Folk to commemorate Mrs. Xian and organized the "annual" signs can be traced: today's electric white mountain pocket area, in the old society has been to the first month of the lunar calendar on the seventeenth day of the anniversary of the death of Mrs. Xian. Gaozhou to the eighteenth day of the first month. In addition, the Daoguang "Dianbai County Zhi" recorded: Dianbai Xia hole town in the past there is also a "yearly routine" called "seventeen to see". That is, in the "seventeenth day of the first month" to commemorate Mrs. Xian. Every year from sixteen to nineteen days of the first month in the "...... >>
Does anyone know the origin of the year? If you know, tell us the origin of the Chinese calendar
According to legend, a long time ago, there was a young man named Wannian, who saw that the festival was very chaotic, and wanted to set the festival correctly. One day, he went up the mountain to cut firewood, sitting under the shade of a tree to rest, the movement of the shadow of the tree inspired him, he designed a sundial to measure the sun and shadow to count the time of day. However, it was cloudy, rainy and foggy, which affected the measurement. Later, the dripping spring on the cliff aroused his interest, and he made a five-tier funnel pot. Over time, he realized that every 360 days or so, the length of the time of day would repeat itself.
The king of the country at that time was called Zu Yi, and the unpredictability of the weather winds and clouds made him very distressed. A minister named Ah Heng, in order to please the emperor, claimed that he wanted to set up a heavenly platform to honor the god of heaven. Zu Yi thought it was reasonable, so he led all the officials to offer sacrifices to the sky, but to no avail. Wannian know, can not help but take the sundial and funnel pot to see the emperor, to Zuyi clear the reason for the operation of the sun and the moon. Zu Yi listened to the dragon's face, felt reasonable. So the ten thousand years left behind, in front of the Temple of Heaven to build the Sun and Moon Pavilion, built the sundial and funnel pot Pavilion. He also sent twelve children to serve Wannian. Zu Yi said to Wannian: I hope you can measure the sun and moon laws, project the accurate morning and evening time, create the calendar, and benefit the people of the world.
Once, Zu Yi sent a decree to ask Ah Heng to find out how Wan Nian was progressing in testing the calendar. When he ascended to the Altar of the Sun and the Moon, he saw the following inscription on the stone wall beside the Altar of Heaven:
The sun rises, the sun sets, and the sun rises and sets for three hundred and six
Weeks and weeks have come and gone since the beginning of time.
The grass and trees are divided into four seasons,
and there are twelve rounds in a year.
When Heng saw this, he knew that Wannian's calendar had been successfully researched, and he felt uneasy. He was terrified that Wan Nian would be favored for creating the calendar and the king would blame him for coming up with the idea of sacrificing to the sky god. So he plotted and sent an assassin to get rid of Wannian. The assassin climbed up to the Sun and Moon Pavilion and saw that Wannian was observing the stars and buckets on the pavilion, so he opened his bow and prepared to shoot him. Who knows, the assassin was discovered by the guards and was apprehended on the spot. Upon learning of this, Zu Yi punished Ah Heng and personally climbed up to the Sun Moon Pavilion to visit Wannian. Wannian pointed to the sky and said to Zu Yi: It is now the fullness of twelve months, the old year is over, and the new spring is beginning again, so I pray the king of the country to set a festival. Zu Yi said: Spring is the first year, let's call it Spring Festival. Winter goes to spring, year after year. Later, after long observation and careful projection, Wannian formulated an accurate solar calendar. When he presented the solar calendar to the succeeding king, he was already full of silver beard. The king of the country was y touched, and in order to commemorate Wannian's achievement, he named the solar calendar as Wannian Calendar, and appointed Wannian as the Longevity Star of the Sun and Moon. Later on, people hung up pictures of the Longevity Star on New Year's Day, supposedly in honor of the highly respected Wannian. This is the origin of the Spring Festival.

The origin of Gaozhou Nianliu. The Spring Festival is a traditional Chinese festival, and is also known as the grandest festival.
