The child died in June, okay?

June of the lunar calendar is the hottest time of the year. Sitting still and sweating this season.

If you die in this season, first of all, the weather is hot, and the storage of the body is a serious problem. According to different regions, after the death of the deceased, it will take three to five days to be buried.

In such hot weather in June, it must be rotten and smelly to stop for several days. There was no refrigeration equipment before, unlike the constant-temperature coffin now, so for the deceased who died in summer, the parking problem is particularly troublesome first.

In addition, the weather was hot in June and farm work began to continue. It is also known as the summer solstice festival. Husband and wife rest separately, which means they sleep separately when they are tired of farm work at night. Therefore, it is difficult to find help this season, first, because I am busy with farm work, and second, because it is too hot. This proverb is also caused by the limited living conditions in the past. It has different explanations for different seasons of birth, aging, death and illness. This is also a true portrayal of the past. Nowadays, with the improvement of living conditions, this old saying has obviously fallen behind the times and can only be used as a gossip.
