How did ancient people spend their winter leisure?

Winter is a cold season, we have heating, air conditioning, and thick walls, so you don't feel cold when you hide in the house. I have seen how the ancient people spent the winter in a lot of ancient **, in ancient times, there was basically no farm work in the field, and in winter, women did some needlework at home, also called "female workers", "women's work", "women's affairs", "women's red", etc., all of which were manual work done by women such as needle and thread, weaving, embroidery, and sewing. The "winter leisure" time is also a good time for ancient women to learn to do needlework.

In the pre-Qin period, it was generally held in the township drinking ceremony after the end of farming, and the loser drank; The vassal states also rewarded those who were good at shooting among the people. In the Western Han Dynasty, the Sui and Tang dynasties, and the two Song dynasties, the imperial court basically advocated "teaching the people to respond to the enemy" and encouraged the people to practice riding and archery skills. The child began to go to "winter school".

In the Song Dynasty, the curfew was relaxed, and the streets were more lively, and the poor and rich could go to the streets for recreation; In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the management was stricter, but taking Beijing as an example, there was still a "nightlife" in the outer city, the literati's poetry party was held, the bureaucrats and wealthy people had banquets, they could also hold a hall meeting to listen to operas and music, and they could also have an elegant gathering in private. Ordinary people, men can gather at a friend's house in three or five and drink all night; Women can get together, embroider flowers, weave cloth or something, and gossip about interesting things in the neighborhood.

In winter, children in ancient times had to go to "winter school". "History of the New Yuan Dynasty" contains: "The gap between the peasants and the children of the school is schooled.

Children are in trouble in winter school, but they are stupid but cherish themselves. He slept behind closed doors and did not look at people all year round. Lu You's poem "Autumn Residence" also mentions children's winter schooling.

However, winter school is different from formal school education, it is a short-term study class organized during the winter leisure time, and the purpose is enlightenment and education. In ancient times, there were very few people who could enter regular schools, and short-term winter school solved the problem of education for children in ancient times. For example, in the social studies of the Yuan Dynasty, the portrait of Confucius would be carved, so that the students would worship him, and then study, this kind of "social science" is the winter learning of children.

Since most of the teachers were people who were coarse in literacy, the Yuan court required the state and county school officials to train teachers in various places and standardize their pronunciation and knowledge of the characters, so as to "unify the pronunciation and meaning, so as not to cause misrepresentation and avoid errors in transmission and learning".

Hello subject!

In ancient times, people did not have to work all year round, in the era when industrial products were not so developed, crops could not be planted in winter, and they could only wait for the next year to start, and this period was called winter leisure. So how did the ancients spend their winter leisure? Don't think they're going to have nothing to do, men and women are busy.

Maybe more than 2,000 years ago, people at that time were thinking about how to keep warm in winter, after all, the conditions were still relatively backward in all aspects at that time, and there were many people who froze to death in winter, and this situation did not change dramatically until after the Han Dynasty. People also have a lot of things to do in the winter leisure season, here is a little secret, if you can't work in the winter, the ancients will choose to have children in the winter crazy. You should be able to understand this. ‍‍

I watched on TV that ancient women spent their time embroidering in winter, and many men practiced martial arts and spent time.

Historically, China was considered to be a typical traditional farming society, and after winter, farming gradually decreased, and the ancients called this period of time "winter leisure". I still remember some ancient TV series I watched, in the winter, ancient women were at home to learn to be female celebrities, they helped the elderly and children in the family to make the clothes and shoes to wear next year. It's easy to wear in the coming year.

Men practice archery and martial arts. Men practice archery and martial arts. In ancient times, all students had to master the six basic talents of "etiquette, music, archery, royalty, calligraphy, and mathematics", among which "shooting" was commonly known as "archery", which was actually an archery technique.

In ancient times, men were responsible for hunting, and had nothing to eat, so they had to rely on game. However, all kinds of equipment and ** in ancient times have advanced a lot, and it is not difficult to hit the prey compared to the primitive people. And many families will prepare food for the winter in advance, and will not let themselves live in the winter.

Another point is that men need to master the skill of archery, which is also one of the six basic talents. Archery can not only help you get prey, but also a kind of ritual socialization, in the pre-Qin period archery was called village archery in the folk, and after the completion of agricultural work, activities would be held, including archery.

In ancient times, male children would go to school if they were able to go to school in winter, and if they didn't want to study, they would inherit the family business, and the family would teach him how to do all kinds of farm work, or he could become a soldier when he was older. In fact, the ancient people's career choices were not very many, and the state was very strict in this area, and the truly fair imperial examination was not implemented until the Song Dynasty, but the more developed the winter leisure in the future, the more abundant things that can be done, until after industrialization, most people can completely get rid of winter leisure.

In ancient times, winter leisure became a very headache, after all, everyone still has to live, and God will not send food to your mouth if you don't work. So in ancient winters, women would choose to engage in handmade products, such as clothes, shoes, cloth bags, and many similar needlework. Some girls learn how to use needlework from the age of 10, after all, women are more suitable for doing fine work, which is in line with their ingenious character.

More complex embroidery and sewing techniques take a while to practice.

In ancient times, there was no industrialized mode of production, and people's clothing, shoes and socks had to be sewn by hand. In the ancient society of men and women weaving, this task fell to women who were ingenious and hard-working. Therefore, "winter leisure" is a good opportunity for ancient girls to learn to do needlework.

Needlework is also called "female work", and there are many names such as "women's work", "female worker", "female work", "female red", etc., all of which are manual work done by women such as needle and thread, weaving, embroidery, and sewing. ‍‍

In winter, women practiced women's skills, while men practiced martial arts. Archery is a kind of archery technique, including five types of archery, including white arrow, semblance, sangzhu, xiangqi, and jingyi. In ancient China, archery was a skill that men should master, and it was a martial virtue.

In winter, men practice archery. The folk are more keen to use their winter leisure time to practice.

The ancients called it cat winter when they were idle in winter, which means to hide like a cat. Or it is called pankang, which means that you can't stay on the kang and don't come down, and you eat and sleep there. Of course, this refers to the countryside. For people in the city, there is no winter leisure.

Winter is supposed to be about eating, drinking, and then playing chess when it's okay.

Generally they must have warmed themselves over this fire and then made small talk.

It should be similar to now, many people get together, drink a little wine and brag, and life is also beautiful.

Men go out hunting, women stay at home with children, weaving cloth to make clothes.

In ancient times, people had to buy charcoal for the winter, and although they did not have a stove at that time, they could use a carbon basin to keep warm. You can also pour hot water into the container, which is often referred to in TV dramas.

In ancient times, firewood was prepared in advance, and cotton clothes were prepared in winter.

The ancients would wear thick cotton clothes and hats in winter, and a stove would be lit in the house to resist the cold and survive the winter.

The ancients had winter clothes, charcoal and other things for warmth. Charcoal is made by burning trees in an airtight container, and it is better to have a light section and a crisp sound like metal, and it is better to be smokeless when burning.

In ancient times, there was a kind of greenhouse in the rich people's homes, when building a house, copper was used as the top beam, the middle of the copper pillar was empty, and in winter, the red charcoal was poured into the copper pillar, and the copper pillar was heated to heat up the indoor air. It won't be cold that way.

Ordinary people: Ordinary people have carbon certificates in their homes. It is a large copper or iron basin, and when it is cold, the family gathers around the brazier to keep warm.
