Sacrificial social day is an activity, and the method of observing time is a bit cumbersome. It is inconvenient to mark the fifth day after beginning of spring and beginning of autumn as social day. In order to make it easier to remember, the people regard the beginning of February in the lunar calendar as the Spring Festival. Social wine is used for social sacrifice. It is said that drinking social wine can cure deafness, so everyone is not drunk.

Country meat is the meat used for sacrifice in the country, also called longevity meat. After the sacrifice to the gods, it will be distributed to every family who participates in the social sacrifice. "Historical Records of Prime Minister Chen's Family" records that he presided over the branch work in the village, and the meat was fairly shared, which was praised by the villagers as a gift from God. Therefore, Lu You wrote in the poem "Group Meat": Drunkenness returns to the rest of the meat, leaving grandchildren.
