The Shangsi Festival on March 3rd, also known as China's Valentine's Day, was recorded as early as the Book of Songs.
After the pre-Qin period, Valentine's Day on March 3rd was spread in different generations. In the Tang Dynasty, Du Fu's poem "March 3 is sunny and beautiful, and there are many beautiful people by Chang 'an water" brought its swaying amorous feelings to a high level. Since the Song Dynasty, Neo-Confucianism prevailed, ethics became more and more strict, and the custom of Valentine's Day on March 3rd gradually declined in China culture. The romantic love, beautiful vision and elegant taste of Qushui on March 3rd have all gone.
One of the main activities of Shangsi Festival is to meet men and women, which is Valentine's Day when men and women express their love. There is a saying in The Book of Songs Zheng Qin Feng Yan: Qin and Yan are both clear. Scholars and women are rich. W: What do you think? Scholars say: both. Watch it? Besides, you can enjoy yourself. Wizards and women, benefiting qi and teasing, feed them a spoonful of medicine.
In ancient times, it was very popular for people to go hiking together on Shangsi Festival and hold free and happy spring outing activities. Young men and women go out for an outing, splash water on each other and choose their spouses freely. This is the real Valentine's Day in China, and they make promises with peonies. Love poems on the third day of March.
First, "Jade House Spring" Song Dynasty, the country of high officials
Spring smoke produces spring water. Zeng Ji, Zhou Fang is blue and charming.
Flowers come to dance on the shore, and the grass is divided into song fans.
Shen Yun went to love thousands of miles. I can't fly when I'm worried.
Ten years of spring scenery, ten years of heart, afraid of the day when we talk about dresses.
Second, "Magnolia" Song Yan Dao Ji
If a young man can relieve his troubles in spring, he can stay in spring with a smile.
At the beginning of dusk, the flowers in the pool are gradually decreasing, and the new emerald has covered Qiongyuan Road.
The skirt will go easily when it meets water.
After all, I have nowhere to go.
Third, "Dead Hua Lian" Song He Zhu
How many injuries spring back to spring. Willow clears the yin, which hinders the balance of hair and quality.
Peach leaf steps in the sky hills. The skirt is full of bald flowers.
Even the sun sings long sentences. The curtains are dim, and my heart makes a huqin sound.
Count the rain and wind. Hazy moonlight clouds come and go.
