Local customs and practices
The patient was dying, and the sons knelt down and kowtowed in turn. At the same time, he will light the headlights and footlights and cook a small bowl of half-cooked rice for his feet (called "pouring the bowl"). Then buy cloth to break the filial piety. The descendants of the deceased are all Dai Xiao: the dutiful son wears a white cloth hat with cotton balls on both sides, a white cloth around his waist, a straw rope (some even carry a pair of straw sandals), and a piece of white cloth covers his shoes; Grandchildren wear white cloth hats, with red cloth nailed to the front, white cloth nailed to the waist and red cloth nailed; Great-grandchildren wear red hats and shoes. Now the funeral ceremony is simple, instead of wearing black gauze on the arm, white, red and white cloth are nailed on the black gauze to distinguish generations. Then, the dutiful son (usually the eldest son) goes to the home of the mourner (the brother or younger brother of the deceased) and then goes to the home of other relatives and friends, kneeling at the door (not allowed to enter the door) to send out a funeral. When the mourners come to see the deceased, they stick a piece of paper or a piece of white cloth on the face of the deceased, which is called a "face covering cloth". Relatives and friends came to pay tribute and kowtow to the dead (now some of them bow instead). The first gift of the dutiful son is called "the dutiful son kowtows".
In the past, people used wooden burials. When sealing the coffin, the dutiful son put a sieve with coffin nails on his head (a pinch of dutiful son's hair was nailed down), and he knelt down to let the mourner seal the coffin. Before the funeral, in some places in Xixiang, the whole family, coffin bearers, drummers and so on. Take the offerings to the south intersection or the east intersection two miles away from home to worship the sky, smash a bowl, burn straw sandals on the back of the filial son to exorcise evil spirits (this move is called "building a big temple"), and then go back to attend the funeral. During the funeral (if the spouse of the deceased is young and middle-aged, it is allowed to remarry later, and firecrackers are set off at this time), the eldest son walks in front with a funeral stick, holds a white flag, the eldest son holds a red flag, and the rest of the filial sons walk in front with funeral sticks to help carry the coffin. If relatives and friends offer sacrifices, they will stop to offer sacrifices. After the sacrifice, the offerings were taken away from the scene. Send undertaker back, fire in front of the door, eat cakes and drink sugar tea after taking the door to exorcise evil spirits. Wine is served in the evening. If the deceased is an old man over 70 years old, he will lose his family after dinner and throw a "longevity bowl" to the visitors. After the implementation of the funeral reform, in rural areas, except for wooden coffins replaced by urns and funeral sticks replaced by wreaths, other customs were basically preserved. After the funeral, it is said that during the "first seven days", the dead ghost will "explore the home" and the whole family will move out on this day, commonly known as "Jean". This custom has basically disappeared today, but the custom of "seven-day burning" (offering sacrifices every seven days)
