What are the customs of birthdays in ancient China ?

The first is to celebrate the continuation and prosperity of life.
Lu Wan’s father lived with the father of Han Gaozu Liu Bang as a life and death. The two wives gave birth to a baby boy on the same day. The villagers specially prepared gifts after learning the news. Congratulations, and the date of "reunion" is likely to be the anniversary of the birth of two children, which is the birthday we said. It can be seen that the custom of birthday has been very popular at the end of the Qin Dynasty.

The second statement: gratitude to the mother for life.
As the saying goes: "Children's birthday, mother's difficult day." Aside from the pregnancy in October, whenever a life comes to the world, the mother who is a child must endure tremendous physical and psychological pain. Therefore, there is a saying in the folk that the original meaning of birthday is to "sorrow." Parents, give birth to me,  hope to remember the pain of mother's labor and childbirth through birthday, and experience the hardships of parents. 

The third way: disaster relief.
This statement stems from a folklore: there is a young  whose family is poor, and only one old mother who is over 70 years old lives in the family. Once, the boy suddenly got an unknown and seriously ill, and the family had no money to heal. When he saw that he was dying, someone told him a way to say that one day, the Eight Immortals would pass by, and they could prepare drinks for their help. Juveniles acted according to the plan, and they saw the Eight Immortals. They cured the strange disease. When they left, the Eight Immortals told him: "Today is your day of regeneration. Every year after that, you will celebrate today and you will live longer." After the news spread, Birthday treats gradually become a local customand has spread. Although this is a legend, it can be seen that birthdays in many people have a sense of disaster relief and pray for peace in the coming year .
