In order to make his mother happy, he racked his brains and tried his best, but to no avail.

One year after the autumn harvest, Xiaobu slaughtered chickens and sheep, worshipped ancestors, invited neighbors and relatives and friends to get together, and everyone laughed and laughed in the pot field, finally making his depressed mother smile. Daisuke's long-cherished wish has finally come true. To commemorate this unforgettable day, he holds the same activity every year after the autumn harvest. In this way, the Yi people have been handed down from generation to generation, which has become an important traditional festival for the Yi people to remember their ancestors.
