Hold birthday party for the aged to show the respect
post time: 2013-5-30

      Langtou villagers hold birthday party at 21st day of the seventh lunar month of every year, which is the 2nd day of the memorial day of the ancestor, for the aged over 60 years old. A feast will be made in the ancestral shrine and the pork will be distributed to the aged. People from 60 to 69 years old will be given 1 jin pork per person and those from 70 to 79 years old will be given 2 jin per person. And so on. In the past, only men in the village can take part in the feast. But in nowadays women can also take part in. However, the tradition of distributing the pork has been changed to distributing the red packets and the date is also changed to the Double Ninth Festival.
