On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, Dong girls use umbrellas to pick melons and vegetables from their beloved garden, which is not considered as "stealing". They also deliberately shouted: "Hey! I stripped all your fruits and vegetables. Come to my house to eat camellia oleifera! " It turns out that they passed the red line with the help of the Moon Palace Fairy. If you can pick a melon and fruit, it means that they can have a happy love. So the beans that grow in pairs become the objects of their picking. Sister-in-law also went to other gardens to "steal moon dishes" that night, but they hoped to get the fattest melon or a handful of fresh green edamame, because it symbolized the child's fatness and the health of the hairy head (the homonym of edamame refers to the child). Boys also have the custom of "stealing moon dishes" because they also want the moon fairy to give them happiness. However, they can only cook and eat in the wild and can't take them home. Stealing Moon Dishes adds infinite joy and magical brilliance to the Mid-Autumn Festival night in Dong Village.
The important festivals of Dong nationality are Spring Festival, offering sacrifices to ox gods (the eighth day of April or the sixth day of June in the lunar calendar) and eating New Year's Eve (the seventh month in the lunar calendar).

National festivals
[Edit this paragraph] Festival introduction
China is a unified multi-ethnic country. Among the 55 ethnic minorities, there are countless festivals. National festivals are meaningful days formed by a nation in its long-term historical development, on which celebrations or sacrificial ceremonies are held. Many festivals with different ethnic characteristics in China can be roughly divided into six aspects: Chinese New Year Festival, Production Festival, Youth Festival, Memorial Festival, Custom Festival and Religious Festival. These festivals, which are closely related to the change of natural seasons, praying for a bumper harvest, worshipping heroes, talking about love, traditional customs and religious beliefs, are living fossils of national history, a concentrated expression of national lifestyle and a vivid display of national traditional culture. Although there are great differences in date, content, significance and ways of celebrating festivals among different nationalities, they all have the common characteristics of stability, mass, nationality and inheritance. Many ethnic festivals have a history of hundreds of years, and some have even experienced thousands of years, which has become a deep-rooted cultural phenomenon in China and a cultural treasure house that needs to be further explored.
