Why can't I celebrate my 80th birthday?
Old people who have such a big birthday will generally avoid being over nine, but not over ten, so as to avoid some taboos. Because nine is the largest number among ten numbers, people have formed this custom of celebrating "nine instead of ten" and holding their eightieth birthday at the age of 79, which is the origin of this custom.

"People live fifty-five, and the ghost king counts." 33, 55, 66, 73 and 84 are all two years.
