What was the nightlife like in ancient times?

Although the life and pastimes of the ancients were not as many as we have now, they also had many projects for self-entertainment. Nightlife generally revolves around the following things.

First, read books.

In our minds, reading is a hard job. However, for the ancients, reading was a leisure and entertainment project. They study a lot for exams, just to cultivate their sentiments.

Just like modern people, sometimes they want to calm their hearts, and they will read quietly by themselves, make a pot of tea, and have some snacks, which is called a cozy!

Second, tea tasting.

It is also a very pleasant thing to invite three or five friends to come to the house or the teahouse to drink tea and chat. In the teahouse, there are usually storytellers, who listen to books and chat, most of them are literati, and you can also make friends with like-minded people, which is really a rare way to relax.

Third, visit the green house.

For the rich boy, the happiest project at night is to listen to music and find a girl. It's just that the ** of the Qinglou is very high, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford, so those who can go to the Qinglou to consume are the children of rich families. Nephrite is in your arms, listening to songs and dancing, wine is matched, and beautiful women are accompanied, no matter how much trouble you have, you can sweep it away.

Fourth, female red.

It is inconvenient for women to go out at home, in addition to reading books, another project is to be a female celebrity. For girls who have not yet married, being a girl is like a compulsory course, and everyone must learn it. Only by learning this lesson can one be considered gentle and virtuous.

If a woman has a sweetheart, she can embroider a purse and other love tokens for him.

Fifth, play chess.

The ancients were very fond of playing chess, and in playing chess, you can see how a person's character is. If you are too impatient, you can't calm down when you play chess, and if you encounter a little problem, you will be confused. The ancients actually honed their own minds by playing chess.

Didn't the ancients like to admire the moon and compose poems?

You don't have to have a computer or TV to get by.

I'm a modern person, and when I was a child, I didn't have a TV or a computer, so I was like the ancients? Let's talk about how I live. (Evening to bedtime), at that time, there are often power outages, every house lights wax, some lamps made of canned foreign oil bottles, adults after meals, cut wild vegetables to feed chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, dogs, horses, sheep, cattle, etc., spin the twine into hemp rope and sole, glue all kinds of rags of old clothes with paste layer by layer to dry during the day, make shoe uppers, sew clothes and socks, use sorghum stalks to weave kang mats to make pots, brushes, brooms, listen to the old people tell stories, once after listening to ghost stories, they dare not go home, visit the house at home, watch cards, play chess.

Children play more, more than 10 people get together, three or four people on the ground to draw a grid jumping plane, hit pockets, pockets, skipping rope, kicking shuttlecocks, hiding cats, catching blind, eagles catching chickens, riding horses and necks, pimples attacking and fighting slingshots are the most advanced, wrestling, dressing up and acting, digging birds' nests, a lot of earthen toys, chessboards, a lot of them, although the difficulty of the soil can be upgraded, the partners are playing better, so it was very happy at that time. The ancients were not stupid, and they would have created a lot of interesting nightlife without electricity.

They can go to the night market, and there are also people selling things in the old society

Nightlife refers to the activities that prevail from dusk to early morning. Nighttime activities are generally seen as opposed to formal activities such as daytime work, and the term nightlife is often used to skew towards leisure and entertainment.

Of course there is, otherwise where would the Qinglou come from? Without nightlife, there would be no kids. Normal sex is a person's physiological needs, and if they cannot be met for a long time, there will be some physical and psychological problems.

Of course, there is nightlife, everyone went to bed early at night in ancient times, what should I do if I can't sleep, Isn't the spring building coming out, and then everyone in ancient times had a lot of children, of course, it was created by nightlife!

Yes! Isn't the Qinglou an exclusive venue? Four or five friends gather here, listen to music, see beautiful women, cheerful and cheerful, this is not a nightlife.

Of course. In ancient times, there was also a night market, like shopping for lanterns, guessing lantern riddles is a night market activity, but the nightlife of ancient people will end early.

In ancient times, people had a nightlife, and they also had a night market, which was very prosperous.

The ancients had a nightlife. Since the beginning of the Northern Song Dynasty, the curfew system has been broken, when the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, Kaifeng, is the most prosperous commercial city in the country, and the nightlife of the Northern Song Dynasty people is also very rich. Henan people know that the night market in Kaifeng is very famous, the drum tower, the apple orchard, and the big west gate of the old river, which are all handed down from the Northern Song Dynasty.

The market system is also gone, and doing business is no longer limited to the "city", whose small building is facing the street, you can open a door on the street to do business, such as the Wang Po in "Water Margin", who opened a small teahouse downstairs in her house.

Therefore, China from the Northern Song Dynasty, only began to have a real nightlife, although the city gate is still closed, but people can at least come out and walk on the street, although there is no electricity in ancient times, but there are lanterns, each small vendor hangs a lantern in front of the door, the whole street is bright.

In ancient times, the nightlife of the people was very scarce, when the sun went down, the poor would start to sleep and rest, while the rich people had a little more nightlife, including taverns, teahouses, green houses, etc.

In ancient times, the poor slept directly with their children at night, and the rich people's homes were brightly lit and enjoyed life, the first to sing, the second to dance, the third to drink, the fourth to recite poems, and the fifth, to admire the moon.

In ancient times during the Ming Dynasty and the Song Dynasty in China, there were night markets, so residents could also buy their own daily necessities at the night market, but most of the time there was basically no nightlife at night.

In ancient times, fire candles were used for lighting, which could easily cause fires. Therefore, in order to maintain law and order, all Chinese dynasties have invariably implemented curfews. If the common people do not sleep well at night, go out and wander around when they have nothing to do, or sing songs at night with the lights on, or even cause a fire, this is illegal in ancient China.

In the mid-to-late dynasties, Chang'an's curfew system began to gradually disintegrate. In the later Song Dynasty, the commodity economy was highly developed, the boundaries between the fang and the city were broken, and the commercial area and the residential area quietly overlapped. At the same time, the Song Dynasty took the initiative to abolish the curfew system, coupled with the emergence of special entertainment venues such as Wazi and Goolan, so the nightlife of the upper class in the city began to become more and more abundant.

The nightlife of different classes is different, and ordinary people can only do housework and cheer for homework. And the house of the powerful, their nightlife is still fun. The sound of dogs and horses is mainly a matter of men, and in the family they all raise plays, and if they have nothing to do, they can also go to the family opera garden to listen to the play, watch the performance, light the candle lamp and sing and dance, and be happy to be careful, and be careful of the assassin.

If it is a New Year's holiday, they will invite singers to celebrate lively, and in ancient times, money could still buy fun. Even in the late Qing Dynasty, there is a strict curfew system around the Forbidden City, and other places can continue to operate as usual, trespassing into this forbidden place without permission, and the food stalls still can't eat well, and they have to die!

Of course, this is more of an entertainment for urban upper-class men, and women can only go out to enjoy the lanterns during the Lantern Festival, so many love stories happen on this day. Xin Qiji's words said: "The crowd looked for him thousands, and suddenly looked back, but the man was in the lamplight."

This is the true portrayal of the Song Dynasty Lantern Festival. Thanks to modern technology, people today can enjoy a more colorful nightlife. However, people still have their own routines, after work, a little nightlife to enjoy the body and mind is not impossible, but to know how to stop, if this affects the rest, it will be worth the loss.

The nightlife of the ancients was often like fishing or drinking, listening to operas, and they had nightlife, especially in the Northern Song Dynasty and the Southern Song Dynasty.

In fact, they are very bland, almost go to bed after finishing their work at 8 o'clock, and there is no nightlife.

There are many situations here, and if the wives and concubines get along well, they will take a turn every day. You can also look at your husband's mood, if you want to play at home, play at home, and you can go to the Qinglou to play when you are tired of playing at home. Of course, only for the wealthy.
