Spring Festival couplets originated in Fu Tao (rectangular red boards were hung on both sides of the gate in the Zhou Dynasty). According to the Book of Rites, the peach symbol is six inches long and three inches wide, and the names of ghosts and gods Shen Tu and Lei Yu are written on the mahogany board. "On the first day of the first month, I made a peach symbol for this family and named it Xianmu. All ghosts are afraid of it."

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, in the court, someone inscribed couplets on peach symbols. "History of Shu Family in Song Dynasty" said: Meng Chang, the master of the later Shu Dynasty, asked Xin, a bachelor, to write a poem on the red board, "Because he is not working, he pretended to write a cloud:' Spring Festival is coming, and Changchun will be celebrated'". This is China's first Spring Festival couplets. Until the Song Dynasty, Spring Festival couplets were still called "Fu Tao". There is a saying in Wang Anshi's poem that "thousands of households always exchange new peaches for old ones." In the Song Dynasty, the peach symbols were changed from red boards to paper, which were called "spring stickers" and "Spring Festival couplets".
