Greeting cards have been used in China for a long time. In ancient times, the upper-class literati exchanged greetings with famous cards. Hui Zhou, a poet of the Song Dynasty, said in Qingbo magazine: During the Song Dynasty, servants were often used to stab people in the name of the New Year. This record comes from an interesting story: during the Spring Festival in Beijing, a scholar didn't want to visit every household in person, so he came up with a lazy idea. He wrote many greeting cards first, and then ordered his servant to put a card at the door of every family he visited.

Don't wait for knocking before opening the door, so that the interviewee thinks that he has visited in person. At that time, the circle of scholar-officials and friends was very wide, and it took time and energy to visit everywhere. Therefore, some friends didn't go there in person, but sent servants to take cards cut from plum blossom stationery with names, addresses and congratulations on them to pay New Year greetings.
