    According to the old man, it is because the child's eyes are the clearest, not contaminated with the vulgarities of the world, and have the function of the heavenly eye, but as the heavenly eye gradually comes into contact with the vulgarity of the world, it begins to close. At night, when unclean things are most active, adults come back late from outside and are easy to get contaminated, and they will be scared to cry when they are seen by children's eyes.

    The decision is to light a cigarette outside the door or in the kitchen and smoke it as you go. If you don't smoke, you can turn the lighter twice at the door or go to a crowded place to take a turn, pat your clothes, and preferably shoot sparks.

    Then when they entered the house, the folk elders said that they might be scared by something unclean, and then they wanted to collect the souls of their children. One way to do this is to find a brand new sewing needle, exhale into the child, and then place the needle in a bowl of water with the tip of the needle pointing out the window.

    After doing this, walk up to the child and call the nickname to the child three times, "The baby comes back to sleep with the mother, the baby comes back to sleep with the mother, the baby comes back to sleep with the mother."

    According to the old man, it is because the child's eyes are the clearest, not contaminated with the vulgarities of the world, and have the function of the heavenly eye, but as the heavenly eye gradually comes into contact with the vulgarity of the world, it begins to close. At night, when unclean things are most active, adults come back late from outside and are easy to get contaminated, and they will be scared to cry when they are seen by children's eyes.

    If you are really scared, even a brand-new needle will rust after one night, and the child really didn't make much trouble that night, and the next day, what I didn't expect was that there was indeed a needle that rusted, which was incredible, but a brand-new sewing needle. Truth be told, it's hard to explain! The old man said that he had to collect the soul for three days in a row, but after a few days, the baby's soul had completely returned!

    There are many ways to collect souls, but they all have a key point is to stroke the child's head and whisper the child's name to bring the soul back. This kind of thing cannot be fully believed, but it must not be disbelieved. Especially in families with children, you can do whatever the elderly say, and you can't be wrong.

    [Cigarette picking].

    1. In the field, business exchanges or business dealings, smoke will generally take two or three cigarettes (of course, some people are arbitrary, some people are deliberately exquisite), depending on your relationship and business dealings, if it is two or three You have to take the outermost one, this is a particular, the outside of the meaning is, regardless of you and me, there is sincerity and generally in the case of you as a customer or you are the master! From the perspective of your cigarette picking, those who often go in and out of the occasion can know your relationship with handing cigarettes!

    2. If it is your leader or your brothers, elders, especially those who walk in society! Then you have to pick up the inside, which means that under his care, smaller than him (inside is small, this is very particular, especially on certain occasions, the person who delivers the cigarette is generally two cigarettes, others take one, and then go to the box to get one, always keep the cigarette in the hand is at least two!

    3. If it is your friend or a peer who gives you cigarettes, it doesn't matter if there are two, if there are three, you will take the middle one, which means equality! But sometimes in order to show respect, we often pick up among friends! It's best to pick up the inside if you meet for the first time, and if there are three, take the last one, because you don't know who you are older with him, so in order to show your etiquette, take the innermost one!

    According to hygiene and etiquette, try not to touch the cigarette holder when handing out cigarettes! However, this seems to pay less attention, in fact, we can use our hands to flick the bottom of the cigarette case, so that a few cigarettes are a part higher, so that the cigarette is more hygienic!

    In fact, we usually take it out directly to each other, so we can take out the cigarette butt and hand it to each other to show that we care more about each other!

    1. Cigarettes for the elders:

    Be sure to take only one, hand it over with both hands, and the other party will immediately light it for him! This is a more formal method! It's generally not that serious, but a cigarette and a pair of hands are inevitable!

    But it also depends on the occasion, if there are many people, surrounded by elders, such as when you get married, you can't stand it one by one, you can take a few more and send them casually!

    2. Smoke for peers or juniors:

    Because, handing cigarettes is a kind of etiquette, since the etiquette comes first, then make the ceremony sufficient, for the same generation of us two or three, for the younger generation we also treat equally, courtesy! Respect is mutual!

    Tips and rules for handing cigarettes to others and lighting cigarettes.

    1. Handing cigarettes: When handing cigarettes to the other party, the cigarette pack should be opened, several sticks should be popped, the upper half should be exposed, and the other party should take out one by himself. If you are at home, you can put it in the box and let the other person pick it up, and wait for the other person to take out a cigarette to smoke.

    If you are a non-smoker, when someone hands you a cigarette, you just need to shake your hand slightly and say "thank you, I won't", and the other party should not force it. When a man greets a woman, if he doesn't know if the other person can smoke, he doesn't have to hand her a cigarette.

    Cigarette lighting: Several people light cigarettes at the same time, the younger one should be the one for the older one, the man should light it for the woman, and the host should light it for the guest. A match and two cigarettes have to be extinguished. With a lighter, it should be extinguished after lighting two cigarettes, and do not dot three times in a row.

    The elder borrows a fire from the younger, and the older can light a cigarette first, and then the younger one takes the lit match and lights his own cigarette. The man borrows fire from the woman, and the woman does not have to light the fire for him, but just hands him a match or a lighter; A woman borrowing fire from a man, whether the man is older or not, should not take the burning match from his hand, but the man should strike the match or light the lighter, and the woman should lean over and set it on fire. When borrowing fire, you should take the cigarette off your mouth, and when you take the other person's lighter, you should put the cigarette in your mouth.

    When someone lights a cigarette for themselves, they should generally say thank you softly.

    Oh, there are still a lot of exquisitenesses.

    2. Passing cigarettes: After opening the cigarette case, do not directly grab the cigarette holder with your hands, but vibrate or squeeze the cigarette box to let the cigarettes come out by themselves, and hand the cigarette box to others, so that others can smoke the cigarettes by themselves, which is hygienic and polite. If you're smoking with close brothers, you don't have to be so polite.

    Cigarette picking: To strangers, leaders or elders: Pick them with both hands and nod their heads in acknowledgment.

    Refusal: Explain the situation, such as if you have never smoked, or that you have recently become ill and are not fit to smoke, and apologize. If the other person repeatedly insists on giving you a cigarette, you take it and give him a face, but not necessarily immediately light a cigarette, which can indicate that you will smoke it later.

    If the other party insists on lighting it for you, then it is fine, but you don't smoke, just take it for a while, wait until the smoke is about halfway burned, and then extinguish it.

In order to let Cixi give up his rights and retire with peace of mind, and in order to show filial piety, Emperor Guangxu wanted to build a new garden for Cixi, that is, the Summer Palace, and the director of this garden construction was Guangxu's biological father. Therefore, this Summer Palace was built desperately - everyone knows that the Old Summer Palace was built back and forth for a hundred years, and it was built in the prosperous Kangqian era of the Qing Empire; When the Summer Palace was built, the Qing Empire was already in decline, and the reparations had been ceded by the foreign powers, and it was in the critical period of the industrial revolution with great changes of the times (the Westernization movement needed a lot of money) - so there was a big gap in the money to change the garden! Guangxu was in a dilemma and embezzled naval military funds from Li Hongzhang's Beiyang Naval Division.
