In the famous Sanfangqixiang ancient block in Fuzhou, Antailou Restaurant, which is famous for its delicacies and traditional Fujian cuisine, set up a porridge delivery point at the door of the store, and distributed free red dates, peanuts, longan, lotus seeds, brown sugar and glutinous rice "Aojiu porridge" to the public.

"Aojiu Festival" has become a traditional activity of the old brand "Antailou Restaurant". Before the "Aojiu Festival", it also specially invited Fuzhou folk experts to explain the origin of the "Aojiu Festival" for diners. Its operator said that he hoped to inherit this traditional festival in Fuzhou.

Aojiu Festival is a traditional folk festival unique to the Han nationality in Fuzhou, also known as Filial Piety Festival and Sending the Poor Festival. Early this morning, Fuzhou people cooked sweet porridge with glutinous rice, brown sugar, peanuts, red dates, water chestnuts, sesame seeds, longan and other raw materials, called "Oujiu porridge", which was used to worship ancestors or give gifts to relatives and friends; Especially the married daughter, she must send a bowl of "Wojiu porridge" back to her family to honor her parents and wish her peace and health.

This custom is still popular in Fuzhou. An old mother who drank "Oujiu porridge" said that "Oujiu porridge" not only contains brown sugar, peanuts, red dates, longan and so on. And there is a filial child, which is a sweet heart.
