Local ordinary funerals, the night before burial, are held in front of the coffin "into the meal" ceremony. Because the deceased "stayed" at home on the last night, children and relatives will inevitably feel goodbye. Therefore, in many places, "eating" is called "giving spirit" or "family sacrifice".

Customs related to white rice:

On the night of the "dinner party", from around 8 pm, the drum band was arranged around the spirit, from the dutiful son to the closest relative, according to the family distance. According to funeral etiquette, whoever wants to "eat" will kneel in front of the coffin, put incense in his hands on his chest, and play a song with drums. A person will bring tea and rice on a plate to the coffin and then play a song. The person who "eats" will kowtow and abdicate, and then the second person will turn.

When "eating", except our dutiful son, all other close relatives should give the drum band small money when "eating". Give more money, play well and play for a long time; Give money once and play a song. So everyone "eats" for a different length of time. What music to play can be ordered by people who "eat".
