17世纪,英格兰把这天称作“敬母日”。这一天在大斋期的第四个星期天(大斋期指复活节前的40天),设立“敬母日”是为了纪念英国的母亲。当时,许多穷人在富人家里打工,因为富人的房子离他们的家很远,所以这些仆人只好寄宿在主人家里,在“敬母日”这一天,主人们会放他们假,并鼓励他们返家与自己的妈妈团聚。 In the 17th century, England referred to this day as “King Mother Day.” This day on the fourth Sunday of the fasting period (Last Hour refers to the 40 days before Easter), the establishment of “Goddy Day” is to commemorate the mother of the United Kingdom. At the time, many poor people worked in the rich’s home because the rich’s house was far away from their home, so these servants had to stay in the owner’s home. On the day of “Goddy Day,” the Lords would give them leave and encourage them. Go home and get together with your own mother.
