With a history and culture of 5,000 years, China is an ancient civilization in which various sects flourish and strive for glory. In ancient times, people were very clever. They can brainstorm and create many things that future generations will appreciate, such as grottoes, hanging coffins, Leshan Giant Buddha, the Great Wall and so on.
Although they don't have electronics and wifi... They were still having a great time at that time. When it comes to their culture at the time, when they sit on a stool, they can't talk about it all day long. In ancient China, not only were there many inventions, but the everyday necessities of the girl's boudoir are still in use today.
The first is the belly pocket, which is a personal item for ancient girls. It belonged to the girl's boudoir, and even their father couldn't go in and see it, except for their mother, because the girl's privacy was hidden here. The bell is one of the most precious items for young girls in ancient times.
Speaking of preciousness, the patterns on the bells were drawn by them one by one, and the embroidery was made by them one by one, each of which took their heart and effort, so it was a shame that this project was seen by outsiders at that time.
The second piece is the bidet. Due to the limited technology at that time, they could not invent some bathing utensils, such as bathing, solar energy, water heaters, etc. However, they did not stop bathing because of this. They wanted to make a bidet out of wood.
Although the material was not very new, carpentry at that time took a lot of time and effort to build a bidet. Because this is their bathing device, it is usually kept in a secret place where outsiders are not allowed to watch.
The third piece is the toilet. In ancient times, the toilet was not called a toilet, it had some elegant names, that is, "tiger" or "Gong bucket". No matter what kind of person they are, this is their necessary material. Going to the toilet was a disgrace to ancient girls, who had to hide the toilet in a very mysterious place.
The last one is called the menstrual belt, which is equivalent to today's sanitary napkins. At the time, their technology was not yet in place, nor had they invented such a meticulous thing. Even paper was a particularly precious thing at that time. Even if it was something precious, the ancestors invented this kind of thing to meet the needs of young girls.
This is not disposable, but can be recycled.
In ancient times, people were easily bound by thought, and they had to follow many rules, but even their own parents could not see them, while modern thoughts were more open and there was less personal privacy for girls.
As we all know, the status of women in ancient China is actually very low, and women have to endure all kinds of rules and regulations throughout their lives, what three from four virtues and the concept of male superiority and female inferiority. This devastated ancient women, but ancient men were generally more at ease, and they were able to marry three wives and four concubines.
And women, even after the death of their husbands, rarely remarry, for a variety of reasons, of course, more are imprisoned by feudal etiquette. In contrast, men are very free, and this social concept in ancient times also makes many men see their wives as their own tools.
Oh ~ ~ male superiority and female inferiority, it is really sad.
Having said that, are there any personal items you don't want your parents to see?
