Extended information:

The age of ancient people was sometimes not represented by numbers. They did not directly tell how old someone was or how old they were, but instead used an age-related title instead. . Chuiku (tiáo) refers to children aged three to four to eight or nine years old (chui, the short hair hanging down on the heads of ancient children). Zongjiao is a young man aged between eighty-nine and thirteen or fourteen years old (in ancient times, children divided their hair into left and right halves and tied each into a knot on the top of their head, shaped like two sheep's horns, so they were called "Zongjiao").

Among all the age titles, the title of "ninety" is the most common and interesting. It is also called "fish back". Mackerel is a kind of fish, and the spots on its back are like the wrinkled skin of an old man. In old age, age spots appear on the skin like the skin of a frozen pear, so it is also called "frozen pear".

There are also names based on physiological characteristics, such as: newborns are called "babies" because newborns need to be held in front of the chest for feeding. Ying can communicate with Ying, Ying is the chest. The baby is the child held in the chest. In addition to being called "mourning", the age of seven is also called "羾龀" and "destroying teeth" because it is the time when teeth are changing, so it is called this. The fifteen-year-old is called a "child", and "a mountain without grass or trees is called a child". In ancient times, adults reached adulthood at the age of sixteen. At the age of fifteen, men were not crowned with crowns, and women were not crowned with hairpins. The meaning used here is metaphorical.

In addition, what we often call "the year of Erli", "the year of not being confused" and "the year of knowing one's fate" come from the records of "The Analects of Confucius: Weizheng Chapter": "The Master said: Ten When you are five, you are determined to learn; when you are thirty, you are established; when you are forty, you are not confused; when you are fifty, you know the destiny; when you are sixty, your ears are attuned; when you are seventy, you can follow your heart’s desires without going beyond the rules.”

Our country also has the tradition of counting the years of the zodiac. Sixty years is a cycle, so there is a saying that the age of sixty is the "year of sixtieth". There is a poem by Du Fu that says: "Drinking debts are commonplace, but seventy years of life are rare in ancient times." Therefore, seventy is also known as "the rare year in ancient times".
