It was very hot in summer in ancient Central Plains. How did the ancients who wore three layers of Hanfu spend the summer?

Summer is very hot, and July and August are the hottest times of the year. The scorching sun can't wait to cook people. In this weather, people who go out wear short sleeves and shorts, which are all cool clothes; Those who don't want to go out lie at home and comfortably turn on the air conditioner. At this time, I will not only think of the ancients who wore Hanfu in ancient times, but also think of why it is not hot to wear so many clothes on such a hot day.

In fact, the Hanfu worn by ancient people is not as thick as people think now, and the ancient Hanfu is different from the popular Hanfu. Most of the clothes worn by ancient nobles were made of silk. This kind of clothes is characterized by being very loose and breathable. According to some relevant historical records, the silk clothes worn by nobles are very thin and light. It is said that one such dress is less than one or two, and according to the current calculation, it is even less than 100 gram. The clothes worn by an official in summer are not as heavy as those worn by some people now.

There is also a saying that an official wears four or five clothes in summer, but he can see the official's mole through so many clothes. The clothes that ordinary people wear are not very hot either. The clothes that ordinary people wear are hemp, breathable and comfortable. Therefore, although ancient people seem to wear a lot, they are similar to us.

In ancient times, people's living conditions were different from ours. At that time, there were not so many tall buildings, only green mountains and green waters, and the environment was pleasant. This environment is very comfortable, and the temperature in modern cities is generally several degrees Celsius higher than the ground. Pillows made of stone or jade when they sleep are also good for enjoying the cool when they sleep. The above is how the ancient people solved the problem of hot summer.
