What is a round grave and what are the customs?

The round grave is a form of memorial service. It is held on the third day of the burial (that is, the next day). Family members must go to the grave to perform a rounding ceremony and build soil for the grave. Let me introduce it to you below.

1. Round grave custom

1. Repair the grave

On the third day after burying the deceased, the filial sons go to the "round grave" because they are being buried. There are many people and it's a rush, so you need to trim it and make it rounder.

2. Build the tomb door

Build the tomb door and put the piece of soil where the filial son broke the ground into the top of the tomb.

3. Burning paper for sacrifice

To "round the grave", you also need to bring some burning paper, incense, cigarettes, wine and some sacrifices. After rounding the grave, the filial sons knelt down to burn incense and offer sacrifices. Have a good cry.

4. The first seven days

After the tomb is rounded, the first seven days are passed. Each seven has seven days, and the last seven seven days is forty-nine days. Every seventh day, filial sons go to the graves to burn paper. After the "Qiqi" period, the girl steams forty-nine offerings (steamed buns) and carries burning paper, cigarettes, wine, and vegetables to the grave.

5. After the "Hundred Days"

When the "Hundred Days" are celebrated, wealthy families will treat relatives and friends to a meal to express their commemoration and condolences to the deceased predecessors.

2. Funeral etiquette

1. The so-called sacrifices also vary from person to person, such as fruits, pears, dumplings, steamed buns, steamed buns, snacks, etc.
