The custom of clothes, shoes and hats

There is no obvious difference between the old clothes in Qianjiang City, Hubei Province and other places. Men in wealthy families wear robes and jackets, while women wear twill shirts and wide-leg pants. Men in poor families all dress up as blouses and wear double-breasted blouses.

Men in rural areas often wrap their heads in green gauze, while women in the field use towels to keep out the sun and rain. The ends of the towel are tied in a knot at the back of the head. Old people usually wear a bun ring on their heads. Old people like to wear a small hat with melon skin.

Male dolls like to wear tiger's head shoes, and the front end of tiger's head shoes is embroidered with tiger's head patterns, which is the bridge of nose shoes. Men wear round shoes and women wear square shoes. Young women often use fancy soles as evidence to compare their skills, while embroidered socks soles (actually insoles, also known as "covering the soles") are often practical gifts for their husbands or fiance. After the Republic of China, thread socks, rubber shoes and leather shoes entered the market one after another. This custom still prevailed in the countryside for a long time, and then it gradually died out.

Horse is a distinctive children's song. Qianjiang people call "frog" "frog"? The so-called "Deyang" has two meanings: first, children tie a string to the head of a bamboo pole, tie a cotton ball or other bait on the string, and then go to the river to catch frogs like fishing. They shook the bamboo pole up and down, and the bait swayed on the water. When the frog jumped up and bit, it was caught. The action of Qianjiang children catching frogs is called "gain and loss"; In addition, it means "counting", because the child's counting action is also like "winning something".
