春节传说之压岁钱
传说古时候有一种身黑手白的小妖叫“祟”,每逢大年三十的夜里都出来害小孩 。他只要用那双惨白的手在熟睡的小孩额头摸三下,小孩子就会发高烧,讲呓语;等到几天后高烧退去,原本聪明伶俐的孩子就变得神志不清,呆头呆脑了!
人们害怕“祟”来伤害自己的孩子,就在这一天通宵灯火团坐不睡,“守祟”保护孩子 。后来有一户姓管的人家老来得子,为了保护这来之不易的孩子,他们在这一晚就逼着孩子玩耍,用红纸包八枚铜钱,小孩拆了又包,一直到睡下 。
但这夫妻俩可不敢睡,守在孩子身边 。半夜狂风骤起,“祟”又来张狂而来,当它得意地准备用手去摸孩子的额头时,枕边突然裂出一道亮光,“祟”吓得魂飞魄散,仓惶而逃 。
后来这对夫妇把“红纸包铜钱”的事告诉大伙儿,家家户户也就年年按照这样的方法防“祟”,小孩子们再没被伤害过 。
据说这八枚铜钱是八仙变的,暗中保佑孩子平安 。红包“压祟”的习俗也延传至今,因“岁”与“祟”谐音,“压祟”发展到现在也就自然叫做“压岁”了 。

New Year's Money in the Legend of the Spring Festival
Legend has it that in ancient times, there was a kind of black-handed and white-handed demon called "Xuan", which came out every night on the 30th of the New Year to harm children. As long as he touched the sleeping child's forehead three times with his pale hands, the child would have a high fever and speak loud words; when the fever went away a few days later, the original bright child would become unconscious and dull!
People are afraid of hurting their children by "sneaking". On this day, they stay up all night and "guard sneaking" to protect their children. Later, a family with a family name came to have children. In order to protect the hard-won children, they forced them to play this night, wrapping eight copper coins in red paper. The children took apart and wrapped them until they fell asleep.
But the couple dare not sleep and stay with their children. In the middle of the night, when the wind burst, the "Yin" came again. When it was proudly ready to touch the child's forehead with its hands, a bright light burst out on the pillow. The "Yin" was frightened and fled in panic. Later, the couple told everyone about "copper money wrapped in red paper".
Every household followed this method every year to prevent "hidden", and the children were never hurt again.
It is said that the eight copper coins were changed by the Eight Immortals, secretly protecting the children's safety. The custom of "pressing the hidden" in red envelopes has also been passed down to this day. Because of the homonym of "age" and "hidden", the development of "pressing the hidden" is now naturally called "pressing the old".
