The customs and habits of Cixi
1, summer vacation

Every married bride will go back to her parents' home in summer and be separated from her husband for about two months. If the bride gets married in the second half of the year, in the summer of the following year, the name of this custom is "Bride's summer break". Then the bride's family sent someone to her son-in-law's house to pick up her daughter and go home together. Some people waited for a few days before the bride went back to her family alone.

Cixi, including many areas in eastern Zhejiang, calls the Dragon Boat Festival "Donghong Festival", which is difficult to verify. It may be that the dialect "Dragon Boat Festival" is mispronounced.

4. Shen Du Guild

Shen Du Hall is a traditional temple fair of Dewey Temple in eastern Zhejiang. Welcoming Emperor Wudu out of the temple is a folk blessing and a cultural parade, which has a history of 200-300 years.

5.2 February

It is not advisable to get a haircut in the first month. A folk proverb says, "scraping the tap on February 2 will make you full of energy all year round." Giving a child a haircut is called "shaving". When the dragon looks up, it will bless the child to grow up healthily and get ahead when he grows up. Adults have a kind of haircut called "shaving tap", which is used to say goodbye to the old and welcome in the new, hoping to bring good luck.
