In many places, such an old custom and exquisiteness are still circulated and followed: "If you don't shave your head in the first month, you will die if you shave your head." ”
With the progress of the times and the change of people's ideas, many people no longer believe in this superstitious statement.
However, there are still people who would rather believe in what they have than what they don't.
On February 21, a number of ** reported on a dispute caused by a man who shaved his head in the first month of the new year and his uncle happened to die.
On the second day of the first lunar month, the man's uncle and aunt visited his home.
When the uncle saw that the man's hair was very long, he scolded him, and he didn't even know how to take care of his own hair during the New Year, and he looked sloppy.
After the man was severely scolded by his uncle, he couldn't help but quarrel with him, and then went out.
After the man went out, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, so he went to a nearby barber shop to prepare for a haircut.
When the barber saw that he had come to shave his head, he persuaded him not to shave his head during the New Year, if he had an uncle.
Because, in the local countryside, it is more skeptical to shave the head in the first month, and there has always been a custom and saying that "the first month shaves the head and dies the uncle".
After the man was scolded by his uncle, he was angry, and he was young and vigorous. He said to the barber: I can't care so much, anyway, I don't believe this statement!
Seeing this, the barber shaved the man's head in three strokes. Don't say it, people are more energetic all of a sudden.
As the saying goes: "No book is made without coincidence, and drama becomes a coincidence." "In the world, there are always very coincidences, and there are always accidental coincidences.
That night, the man received a message from his mother that his uncle had been in a car accident and was hospitalized.
When the man was rushing to the hospital, he received his mother's ** again, and his uncle had been sent to the funeral home!
It turned out that his uncle, after going to a relative's house for a drink the night before, rode home on an electric car, hit a telephone pole on the road, and died not long after being sent to the hospital!
It's true, the sesame seed fell into the eye of the needle - just in time.
When the man rushed to the funeral home to mourn his uncle, his aunt saw that his nephew had just shaved his head, and thought of the scene of the quarrel that occurred when he was scolded by his uncle for not shaving his head during the Chinese New Year the day before.
In front of all his relatives, his aunt kept crying and scolding him and beating him; And attributed his uncle's death to the fact that he, a nephew, shaved his head on the second day of the first lunar month, and he killed his uncle!
Seeing this, the man felt that he was both wronged and wronged. He thought to himself, how could his aunt say that his uncle's death was caused by shaving his head? The nephew shaved his head and the uncle died, there is no causal relationship at all! However, at this time, the man really couldn't tell if he was covered in mouth!
What the man never expected was that after his aunt finished his uncle's funeral, he found a local "great immortal" for consultation. "Daxian" said to her that this nephew, knowing that there is a custom and exquisiteness of "killing my uncle by a haircut in the first month", and still going to get a haircut, will inevitably cause my uncle to be in a bad mood, and he must be drunk faster than usual when drinking at a relative's house at night, which will lead to the death of his uncle in a car accident.
My aunt listened to "Daxian" and went to the local public security department to report the case on the grounds that he had intentionally injured and caused death.
After learning about the situation, the public security department explained the reason to her and immediately rejected her request.
However, my aunt was still unconvinced, and she always couldn't get over this hurdle, and always believed that her husband's death was caused by her nephew's shaving of her head in the first month. So, he found a middleman to come to his nephew's house and asked him to compensate for the loss of 1 million yuan in the death of his uncle due to shaving his head.
When the man heard this, he immediately refused this ridiculous request.
Seeing that his nephew was unwilling to compensate, his aunt sued him in court with a complaint. He was required to bear the liability for civil tort compensation and compensate 1 million yuan for various losses.
After trial, the people's court held that the uncle's death was caused by an accident caused by his drunken cycling, and had nothing to do with the nephew's haircut, and rejected her lawsuit. At this point, this outrageous farce is over.
Even now, in many places, especially in some rural areas, there are still many people who believe in the saying "shaving your head and killing your uncle in the first month".
According to the information, there are two legends that cannot be verified for the saying that "the uncle who shaved his head and died in the first month".
One legend is that the Qing army issued a "hair shaving order" when they entered the customs. The Manchus demanded that the Han shave their hair and keep it in braids, but the Han people believed that "the hair and skin of the body should not be damaged by the parents who receive it." So prevarication and procrastination are considered "thinking about the old". Later, it was slowly spread falsely, and the "old thoughts" were passed on to the "dead uncle".
Another legend is that the "Braid-Cutting Order" was issued during the ** period. In January 1921, the "Braid-Cutting Order" was issued. But keeping braids has long become a habit for people, so they are reluctant to cut them. The implementation of the "braid-cutting order" coincided with the first month, so the legend of "shaving the head and thinking about the old" became "shaving the head and killing the uncle".
This man shaved his head on the second day of the first lunar month, and on the same night, his uncle died unexpectedly in a car accident, which was not the fulfillment and manifestation of this proverb, but just a coincidence and coincidence.
This man shaved his head in the New Year while he had an uncle, and although it was contrary to local customs, there was nothing wrong with him.
Of course, as a young person and a younger generation, although you don't believe in such a statement, even if you are dismissive of some customs, you know in your heart that these sayings and customs are some feudal superstitions, and some people's ignorance.
However, from the perspective of respecting the elders, it is better to follow the following temporarily, or to be obedient temporarily, and do some face-saving work in front of the elders, so as not to upset the elders and even make trouble for you.
For example, in some places, it is important to open the door on the fifth day of the first month to welcome the God of Wealth. Although I know that this is an old custom, it is just a matter of opening the door, and just open the door as you do. Although it is not credible, you can always draw auspiciousness, a good omen, and a good mood.
Do you pay attention to the custom of not shaving your head on the New Year? Can you get a haircut in the first month?
