Funeral strategy
Funeral refers to serving the dead, and its source is Modern Chinese Dictionary. There is no way to avoid death, the vast universe, the vast world, where people are born, grow up and die. For thousands of years, people have formed funeral etiquette, which is to satisfy both the dead and the living.
In the whole funeral process, it is a dialogue between the living and the dead, and there is an intractable knot between them-remembering their ancestors and cherishing their loved ones. This knot is manifested in the physical connection between the living and the dead, and also in the spiritual connection between them. This reveals the deep connotation of China's view of life and death.
In modern times, cremation is practiced in cities, and funeral ceremonies are much simpler. After the funeral, in addition to giving guests "bean rice" (also called "bean curd soup rice"), the host usually gives a bag of cloud cakes and three pieces of fructose (there are also five or seven pieces, usually taking odd numbers as an example) to his friends who attend the funeral, and then drinks a cup of sugar water when he returns to the main house. Bread, pronounced "high", means long, and its meaning should not be as hasty as that of the deceased. But the funeral used three pieces of sugar and drank syrup, which was unknown to the world.
In recent years, I have participated in social and folk surveys and found that in many areas of the country (mainly rural areas), after attending the funeral, I have returned to the deceased's home, and there are already several barrels of sugar porridge ready there, which is generally called "eating sugar rice" or "eating five sugar rice". The funeral ceremony of eating sugar rice may be a vulgar ceremony, so the records in ancient books are unknown and its meaning is not clear. Yao Ting, a Shanghainese in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, recorded in the Chronicle that his father died in the thirteenth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty (that is, 1460). "First, do merit for three days, open funeral for two days, and arrange sugar rice deacons."
