Answer:

In Russia, leap years are supposed to be associated with extreme weather and, as a result, premature deaths.

It was even said that beans and peas planted in a leap year would grow upside-down or sideways in their pods, perhaps in response to the supposed upside-down nature of a leap year, which allowed women to propose to men.
