How to associate with chaozhou people?

1. What should I pay attention to when dealing with chaozhou people? (such as what not to say and what not to do)

A: There are basically no special taboos. For folk taboos, please refer to this:

It is a bad sign for the dead to go home or stay with relatives and friends for a few days, seven days before and after the death day.

On the way to the funeral, the mourners should avoid greeting and swearing when they meet old acquaintances, for fear that the dead in the coffin will know, which is not good for the people who are greeted. Funerals on the mountain field are not allowed to call each other by their first names, but only by gestures or hints, otherwise it will be bad for the called party.

When a mortal dies, his relatives wake up, and cats are forbidden to approach dead bodies. It is said that the soul of the Shang dynasty princess was hidden by the fox, and the cat was a raccoon. When approaching a dead body, the dead body will "resurrect" and walk around fearfully.

When drinking tea at a friend's place or unfamiliar place, it is forbidden to wipe the edge of the cup when lifting it, otherwise it will be considered as provocation.

Enter the martial arts school boxing hall, and don't wave a knife and stick in it. If you fiddle with it at will, it will be considered as deliberately looking for trouble and will compete with you.

All animal gifts, whole horn fermented grains and sweet fermented grains sent by relatives and friends on New Year's Day festive occasions are not accepted. Cut the fermented rice cake and sweet glutinous rice cake back to a small corner. Don't accept all the fish and take the lead, because only in this way can the fish keep swimming around, otherwise it will mean breaking off diplomatic relations, and the gift giver will not send such gifts home in the future.

Usually letters should not be written in red ink, because only divorce letters, farewell letters and dear John letters can be written in red.

Treat people to dinner, double soup, avoid three dishes, because three dishes are eaten before death row. At the wedding banquet, it is forbidden to eat the "four gold" of three birds on the table. Namely, head, tail and wings.

The cash and eggs of the gift should not be odd. The number of funeral utensils and funerals should not be even.

Don't break plates, bowls, cups and saucers at happy events, otherwise it will be considered ominous. Be sure to use auspicious words to make up the scene.

Dreaming at night, dreaming that a living person suddenly died, you can't tell others what happened in the dream, otherwise that person will be unlucky and afraid of what you saw in the dream.

Cooked whole chickens (including ducks and geese) should be cut open first, and don't cut their heads first.

Don't use skinless meat and scaly fish when offering sacrifices to ancestors, otherwise it is disrespectful to ancestors.

It is unlucky for a man and a woman to make a funeral "three-year sacrifice" for three years from engagement to marriage.

During a woman's pregnancy: no dust is allowed; Don't move large pieces of furniture in the room, such as wardrobe, bed, dining table and so on; Do not nail; Avoid binding things; Avoid chopping wood; Avoid approaching the funeral, such as making meritorious deeds when you see the coffin.
