Bless your children to be safe.
The legend goes like this: In the old society, due to the lack of family planning, the poverty of the country and the people, the lack of medical treatment and the price difference of sanitary strips, although many children were born, few survived, and some were Of the next five, six, or even seven or eight children, only one or two will survive. I don’t think this is caused by society, but I think this is human destiny.
It means that this child was given by God and will not die. Some children named them lock, tie, keep, pull, and dog left, which all mean to bless their children with a long life. Some people are afraid that their lives will be poor and one mother cannot afford the child, so they find another godmother for the child and ask the godmother to lock up the child. Lock, lock, means that the child's life is locked so that he will not escape. Due to the strong preference for boys over girls in the old society, more boys wore locks in the hope that they could be brought up smoothly and pass on the family line to the future. But there are also a few families that give birth to more boys but only one girl, so they prefer girls, so they find godmothers for their daughters and wear locks. I hope you can grow up healthily and happily. Generally, what boys wear is called "longevity lock" and what girls wear is called "wealth lock". And the original lock was a solid copper lock, in the shape of a "concave", which was relatively large, heavy for children to carry, and inconvenient to move, so people changed it to a lock-shaped copper piece, but the copper piece had a larger area. And because children love to run and make trouble, in order to make it easier to hang a belt, it was finally changed to a form made up by Qing Qian, which continues to this day. This lock requires the child's godmother to select several colored threads to weave according to the child's destiny. The children must bring it to the wedding ceremony before the lock can be unlocked. At current wedding ceremonies, a tray is usually prepared, then red paper is placed on it, the scissors are wrapped in red cloth, and the bride and groom open the "longevity and wealth lock" to each other. Why should the lock be opened at the wedding ceremony? Because getting married can prove that you have grown up, started a family, and have a worry-free life, there is no need to lock it, so the lock is opened. And people give the best wishes to the newlyweds.
