What is the date of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year? The customs of the day are to put up flowers, eat food and worship gods to ensure safety.

In ancient times, the seventh day of the first lunar month was called "Renri". "Shiwuji" records: Dongfang Shuo was the first to establish "Renri". Legend has it that during the reign of Emperor Wu of Song, Princess Shouyang lay in Hanzhang Palace on the first day of the lunar calendar. Plum blossoms from the eaves fell on the princess' forehead, forming a kind of decoration; the palace maids imitated her and put red dots on their foreheads as "plum blossom makeup." This custom was passed down to the Tang and Song dynasties, when women would paint various patterns on their faces, with names such as "slanting red, mianyan" and "lipstick"; the lipstick had names such as "Wanjinhong, big red, and inner family circle". In fact, the practice of women decorating their faces with dots and paintings had already begun as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period; this can be proven by the dot patterns on the faces of female figurines of the Chu State unearthed in Changsha. In the Tang Dynasty, it developed into sticking gold foil flowers on the face, which became a makeup fashion.
