What do you call a birthday person?

Shouqing is commonly known as "birthday celebration".

In the past, wealthy families began to celebrate their birthdays at the age of 60. Birthdays are generally invited to relatives, friends, students and subordinates 1 month in advance, and the birthday hall is decorated three days in advance. In the center of Shoutang, there is a brocade high chair of the Eight Immortals, in front of which is a table and tablecloth of the Eight Immortals. 1 pair of big gold candles were lit on the candle tray on the table, and 1 Zhang Chang painted the table on the wall behind the chair. There is a clock in the middle of the table, and there are 1 bell caps with scrolls on the left and right of the clock. On the wall is a life screen with 1 hat and gold font written on red paper.

On his birthday, the birthday boy wore a brocade shroud and sat in a high chair in the middle, bowed by his children's daughter-in-law and grandchildren, and gave his grandchildren money (wrapped in red paper).

The next day was the most lively, receiving guests, relatives and friends who came to congratulate. When the guests sent birthday presents to the gate, the gong-drummer knocked on the double-tone gong and shouted "The guests have arrived". The band played music and suona, silk and bamboo sang together. The birthday boy sat in a high chair with his eldest son standing beside him. Relatives and friends of the same generation bow in class and call it "birthday". The birthday boy got up and returned the gift. If subordinates and younger generations bow in class, their sons will reciprocate on their behalf. If the tenant comes to congratulate him, he will not be allowed to go to class, but will accept a birthday present, take him to the kitchen for dinner and leave. If the boss comes to congratulate him, the birthday person will immediately go to class, bow and accompany him into the living room to chat.

After the birthday party, a banquet is held to invite wine, which usually lasts for 3 days. Dinner is the most abundant on your birthday, which is called dinner. In the old custom banquets, there must be a kind of peach with buds (commonly known as "Shoutaozui"). When guests eat peaches, they shouldn't eat buds. They should break off the buds and put them on the table first, which means that future generations will live longer.

The custom of celebrating birthdays has been basically abolished after the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Nowadays, people still have the custom of making and sending birthdays. When the elders celebrate their birthdays, the daughter-in-law will cook something that the elderly love to eat and invite them to dinner, commonly known as "birthday celebration". Married daughters will get some birthday noodles, cakes, birthday cakes and so on, and some even make new clothes.
