105 In the 'Festival' (1)

"Okay, you can rest assured, Auntie. I promise there will be no more problems. Xie Lu Xie Aunt Xie's understanding. As if he had been granted amnesty, the young doctor thanked Yao's mother apologetically and began to extract Yao's mother's teeth.

"You see, you see, this is what you call a reliable hospital, a reliable doctor. I was worried that something would go wrong. Sure enough, something really went wrong. What are you afraid of, what are you bumping into! ”

As soon as she got out of the hospital, Yao's mother angrily blamed Yao Jiaxin. And Yao Jiaxin looked at her mother very embarrassed, very embarrassed and stunned, squeaked for a long time and didn't know what to say.

In human civilization, the "festival" was originally a watershed in the rotation of the seasons of the astronomical calendar and climate. These are reflected in all nations and nations. Especially in the Chinese lunar calendar, which is an ancient civilization in the East, it is even more meaningful.

In the later cultural transmission, it was absorbed and quoted by religion. For example, "Christmas" in the West and "Eid al-Fitr" in Islamic culture at the junction of Europe and Asia. Later, with the continuous evolution of human civilization.

Many festivals are gradually becoming associated with celebrations. Of course, most of them are festive and reunited. Like "Christmas" and "Christmas Eve" in the West; Oriental "Spring Festival", "Mid-Autumn Festival", "Double Ninth Festival" and so on.

Of course, these festivals are just some of the festivals that are widely participated, well-known, or recognized in the development of cultural exchanges. For example, "Christmas" in the West is their common holiday.

The "Spring Festival" and "Mid-Autumn Festival" in the Eastern civilization are all nationally recognized festivals influenced by the Confucian culture of the East. There is also the "Eid al-Fitr" in the Islamic culture of the Middle East. It is also a festival in which they participate in many countries in their cultural system.

Some of them are festivals that are unique to the cultural development of some countries. Such as China's "Dragon Boat Festival" and so on. There are also festivals shared by some ethnic groups. For example, the "Songkran Festival" shared by ethnic minorities in China and some ethnic groups in Southeast Asia.

In short, these festivals are some of the festivals with a long history and deep cultural heritage. They are also universally recognized and respected by the people. But there are some extremely nonsensical festivals that are incredible.

For example, some festivals that have been commercialized, and have been hyped. In the current evolution of commercial civilization, there are few festivals that are not used and hyped by merchants. If you don't believe me, you can count with your hands folded.

After New Year's Day, it is the Spring Festival. The two festivals are separated by a few days. On the merchant's side, it's almost connected. Because their festivals tend to start a week in advance. After the Spring Festival, it is naturally the Lantern Festival.

Just after the Lantern Festival, it is Valentine's Day. Even many times, Valentine's Day overlaps with the Spring Festival and Lantern Festival. At this time, there was a funny scene of merchants busy with the Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, and Valentine's Day.

Good guys, this festival is a lot. Keep them busy. But. These are the festivals that merchants can't ask for. After all, every festival is their own way of making money through promotions. Therefore, no matter how many festivals there are, they will never tire of it.

I thought I could clean it up in March and April, but it turned out to be March 8th Festival, Arbor Day, and April Fool's Day. Not to mention May and June. May Day in the Gregorian calendar. The Dragon Boat Festival of the lunar calendar. June is Children's Day.

And that's not even counting the lesser-known Nurses' Day, Father's Day, Mother's Day, and so on. Needless to say, July. Party Founding Day, Qixi Festival. These are all important festivals. August is Army Day again. There is also the Mid-Autumn Festival of the lunar calendar.

September is undoubtedly Teacher's Day. October, of course, is the National Day Golden Week. November is a quieter month. Still, there is a little-known Thanksgiving.

In December, it is naturally the Christmas of the West and our Laba Festival. What do you think? If you break your fingers and count, it's really a festival. That's on the merchant's side. Undoubtedly, it is a holiday every day.

Of course, these are still some of the most recognized holidays. If you want to put those "home appliance festivals", "food festivals", "shopping festivals" and so on that are hyped by the merchants. That's even more so than that.

Because there are so many festivals now! So we almost all have holiday fatigue. In the minds of the Chinese people, even extremely grand festivals such as the Spring Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival are a little insensitive. That's not to mention the other messy festivals.

Don't talk about those festivals, I didn't have much reaction after listening to them. There was even some vomit-like disgust. It can be seen that we are all suffering from the torment of the festival! Speaking of which, some may have difficulty agreeing.

Of course, it is undeniable that we can have a holiday off during the holidays. There are still three salaries to earn. You can also buy more promotional items, and for the wealthy, you can also go on a tour, etc. However, it is not difficult to find it in the balance of pros and cons of the festival.

These are just some of the superficial benefits we can enjoy, nothing more. Looking at the pros and cons of the whole holiday flood, there are many times when we suffer from it. Buying promotional items will be slaughtered.

Tourist resorts are facing congestion and crowds; Before the holiday, there is also a chaotic schedule and so on. The most terrible thing is the overwhelming promotional advertisements, spam text messages, etc. And most of those advertisements are filled in every corner of your life, which will undoubtedly bore you very much!

Then there are the "April Fool's Day" and "Halloween" that have just spread in China. That "Halloween" is better to say, isn't it similar to the "Qingming Festival" in our country? To put it bluntly, it is "worshipping ancestors" or "worshipping ghosts".

After this "Halloween" was hyped and used by merchants, it became a kind of joyful and incredible promotional advertisement. However, its essence still has a certain significance. And this "April Fool's Day" makes people feel very incredible.

Of course, its popularity and popularity among Chinese people are far less than that of other festivals, so many people's understanding of "April Fool's Day" may only be limited to knowing that it is a festival to play tricks on people.

As for the specific origin of "April Fool's Day", it is estimated that few people can say why. After all, it is a "nonsense" festival in the hearts of the Chinese people. Of course, this is only limited to the few people who know the festival.

If no one believes this, then what happened to Yao Jiaxin can fully explain this. On Sasha's birthday, her future husband followed Sasha's wishes in order to work harder before getting married.

Invite her girlfriends to a very upscale hotel near their home. Just when they were eating, Yao Jiaxin's stomach was a little uncomfortable. I hurried to the bathroom. (To be continued......)
