What are the folk customs in Yulin?

First, folk customs in northern Shaanxi also attach importance to the Double Ninth Festival.

There is a folk saying that "every family has it on September 9th". It means that after the autumn harvest, every family has food to return to the warehouse, not afraid of hunger. So they eat more rice cakes and take the homonym of "cake" to express the meaning of promotion and wealth. People also have the habit of climbing mountains with friends. Mongolians used to come to Yushu to race horses and wrestle with China people. In recent years, September 9 has been designated as a festival for the elderly, and there are many recreational activities, such as chrysanthemum viewing, book exhibitions, singing competitions and performances, which make the elderly feel more comfortable.

Secondly, in terms of customs, there are two distinctive events: getting married and closing the door.

Before the liberation of Yulin, early marriage prevailed, and both sides paid attention to the right family and personality. There is also a saying that you can't turn your flesh and blood, that is, you can't be a woman and you can't get married within five clothes. Aunt aunt as a woman also has the saying that "aunt as a woman, sharpen her knife", and aunt as a woman, has a life of discord. When a man and a woman get married, they hold a wedding. After the husband and wife sit on the bill, they should twist off their yellow hair, which is called "opening their faces" and combing their hair together, which is called "combing their hair". From then on, they became married couples, then exchanged glasses and drank a toast. These are the remains of ancient weddings.

Third, Yulin people love festivals and pay attention to many things. Although there are some superstitious colors, it shows people's blessings for the future and their pursuit of a better life.
