In the first month of the lunar calendar, Miao people from all over the country agreed on their own place and date to participate in the performance. On that day, men and women, old and young, dressed in costumes, gathered artists, singers and lion dragon lanterns from all over the world. The venue was full of people and very lively.

There are many cherry trees in Paibi, Paipai and Dongmaku in the county. Every year in the cherry ripening season in March of the lunar calendar, local Miao young men and women will be invited to gather together in the cherry blossom forest, sing Miao songs and engage in social activities for about half a month. This activity is called "liud liud bid ua" in Miao language, which means picking cherries.

Celebrate the beginning of autumn

"Catch Autumn" is a grand festival for Miao people in Huayuan. Miao language is called "catching autumn fields". Every early autumn, wherever you go, it's autumn field this year. Miao people, dressed in festive costumes, came from all directions in an endless stream, which is called "rushing to help". At this time, the crops are ripe and the harvest is in sight, so it is called Qingfeng Year. Older, affectionate, young people, in groups of three or five, looking for friends. Others use the day of "catching up with autumn" to do business, eager for a prosperous business. Therefore, the "Akita" on this day is crowded with people and very lively.

Apart from lion dancing and playing monkey drums, the most distinctive way to chase autumn is to play Baqiu. Like a spinning wheel, this kind of swing is about 8 meters high and can rotate. Han people call it autumn for eight people, and autumn can be used for single or double people. Eight people turn by manpower in autumn. When the rapid rotation stops, whoever is tall in the morning will sing. If he doesn't sing, people who shake autumn won't let him down.

sincere heart

Miao people mainly farm and look forward to tasting new things in a year. Every summer is ripe, every place sets a day to eat New Year's Eve dinner. On that day, in addition to offering wine and meat, every household also brought home new corn, rice, new peppers, eggplant, watercress, etc., and made a meal. First, the ancestors were sacrificed, and then the whole family tasted it, indicating that they wanted to eat new corn and rice to avoid hunger.

Guashe

Three years ago, the Miao people in Huayuan worshipped their ancestors in Xinli, not in Qingming, but on their birthday, which was called Guaxin. The fifth day after beginning of spring is called Social Day. These days, granddaddy's children in Xinli have to serve three strips of fresh chrysanthemum and wild onion, wash and chop them, and add diced bacon, peanuts, sesame seeds, red dates, winter bamboo shoots, dried bean curd, lard and so on. And cook them into public meals and take them to the new ancestral grave as a souvenir.

After three years, I will not hang up, but only hang up in Tomb-Sweeping Day. After hanging new things, the family ate around the table and gave them to relatives and neighbors. At present, commune meal is not only a sacrificial meal, but also a delicious meal in spring. After sausage, wormwood and chopped green onion are cooked together, the whole room smells delicious after opening the lid. It is said that it also has the effect of preventing diseases and keeping fit.
