Love is important, it must be deified, so land has long been the object of people's sacrifice, called society; The key day of sacrifice is social day.

In rural Tujia Temple, farmers also provide furniture with kettle pulp to make a wish. Li Shen is commonly known as Tian Gong and Tian Po, and was called country and country in ancient times. Social workers have no room and board, so it will rain on social day. This is called social worker rain. Give money to the meeting and call it social money. Folding drums to pray for the New Year is called social drums. Drinking can cure deafness. Mixing rice with meat is the so-called social meal.
