Various writing methods of fu

In my impression, there are at least 100 ways to write the word fu.

The word "Yin Fufu" is now interpreted as "happiness", but in the past it meant "good luck" and "good luck". No matter now or in the past, the word "Fu" posted in the Spring Festival has pinned people's yearning for a happy life and wishes for a better future.

During the Spring Festival, every household should put the word "Fu" on doors, walls and lintels. Sticking the word "Fu" in the Spring Festival is a long-standing folk custom. The word "Fu" on the gate must be pasted correctly, which means "open the door to welcome the wedding".

The word "Fu" is a very festive word, which means good luck. During the Spring Festival, people will paste the word "Fu" at home, which also expresses people's yearning for a better life.

There is a saying in the Han nationality that the word "Fu" is inverted, which mainly comes from its homonym "Fu Dao (Dao)". However, two of China's blessings cannot be posted backwards. One is "The Best Happiness in the World" written by Kangxi, and the other is "The Best Happiness in the World". The word "Tian" in the word "Fu" is unsealed, which means "Fu Lu is boundless". After the unopened word "Tian" is posted upside down, it has an ominous meaning of "fierce" and should not be posted upside down.

Because people attach great importance to the word "fu", they write it in regular script or running script. When customers come here to buy the word "fu", they should say "please" instead of "buy", commonly known as "please", which means "please get in" and "please come home". The stall owner not only writes the word "Fu", but sometimes tells customers how to paste the word "Fu", what are the rules and don't make taboos. The real time to paste blessings should be on the afternoon of the 30th, before the sun goes down, and the order should be from outside to inside, first paste the first blessing, then paste the door blessing, and finally paste the blessing, which means that all the blessings of the year flow in from outside. And from the gate to the inside, the word "Fu" is big first and then small.
