The history is long, what are the ways of women from ancient times to the present?

China has been a country of etiquette since ancient times, so there are also many etiquette constraints in people's behavior. Today, let's talk about some of the ways in which ancient women saluted.

In ancient times, Han women often performed the Ten Thousand Blessing Ceremony, which can be divided intoGreat giftWith the usual courtesy. First of all, the first thing to do is to bend the knee, in which the right leg should be bent back a little lower, the upper body is required to bow the back and bow the head, and the two hands should be flat to the left chest.

Speaking of the regular ceremony, this is much simpler than the big ceremony, it doesn't matter if you bend your knees with your legs together, you only need to lower your head and back slightly, and you don't need to raise your hands to your chest, as long as your right hand presses your left hand, and then press your left hip bone with both hands.

If you want to save more effort, you can also avoid the last step of pressing the left hip bone, just press the right hand to the left hand, and politely express it. <>

In addition to Han women, everyone often sees the way of saluting Manchu women in the Qing Dynasty on TV. Many of the Manchu women in the TV series will perform the blessing ceremony of the Han people, which is actually misleading. The Manchurians do not practice the Ten Thousand Blessings Ceremony, and they have their own way of prostrating, such as squattingWipe the forehead, handles, waist hugs, etc.

The squatting ceremony is a salute performed by Manchu women when facing their elders. As the name suggests, this ritual is to squat, the woman bows together and bends to an angle of about 150 degrees, but the upper body is still kept straight, without bowing the head, and the eyes are preferably looking directly at the recipient, and the hands are gently resting on the bent knees. <>

The forehead wiping ceremony is performed by a woman to her peers. When seeing peers, the head of the full woman should be slightly lowered, and at the same time raise the right hand to the forehead, the palm of the hand inward and the back of the hand outward and the five fingers together, and then gently wipe the forehead from left to right, of course, it is not really wiped, the hand can be five centimeters away from the forehead, and then symbolically wipe it back and forth, the number of times depends on the degree of etiquette, at least once, more than three or more.

When the hand-holding ceremony, the woman saw the salute of relatives and friends of the same sexWhen familiar sisters meet, it may seem too much to be polite, so gently take the other person's hand and show welcome. Sometimes, the younger generation can also hold hands when they see the elders, but while holding hands, they have to bow their heads and squat. <>

The waist hugging ceremony is a big gift, which is performed by the younger generations to the elders during the festival. The way to luggage is to kneel in front of the elders, wrap their hands around the elders' waists, and then say hello.

Since ancient times, our country has been a state of etiquette, and there are various ways to salute, such as kneeling and bending the knees, with their hands folded on the left side of their bodies.

Gift: Bring both hands to the left chest, press the left hand with the right hand, bend the right leg back, bend the knee, and bow the head. Chang Li: Press the left hand with the right hand, press the left hand on the left hip bone, bend the knees with the legs together, and bow the head slightly. The general etiquette is just that the right hand is pressed against the left hand.

In ancient times, the Han people had considerable etiquette for different objects, which were divided into nine kinds, namely Jishou, Dunshou, empty heads, vibrations, auspicious worship, fierce worship, Qi worship, praise worship, and subordinate worship, called "nine worships".

In ancient times, the common etiquette of women on ordinary occasions was the "Ten Thousand Blessings".
