What's the point of recognizing relatives? Matters needing attention in recognizing relatives

1, if you want to "recognize your relatives", you have to choose an auspicious day to hold the ceremony. At that time, parents should not only prepare a sumptuous banquet, but also prepare gifts for their children to pay tribute to michel platini and godmother. In this gift, the most important thing is the hat for michel platini and the shoes for dopted mother. In addition, items such as cloth should be provided. Of course, michel platini and dopted mother can't just go in and out. Michel platini and dopted mother must give their adopted sons and daughters rice bowls, chopsticks and a long life lock. In addition, they should also have a set of small clothes, such as shoes and socks, hats, bibs and stomachs. In the past, for these gifts, wealthy families would go to jewelry stores to order silver bowls and chopsticks, or go to Huguo Temple and Baita Temple to buy wooden bowls to prevent children from breaking them by mistake. It is considered unlucky to break the bowl in case.

2. In some places in Henan and Shaanxi, "recognizing relatives" is accomplished by "touching". In Zhengzhou and Kaifeng, Henan Province, on the first morning of a baby's birth, the baby's father will go out and "touch" his surname. The first person "touches" the baby's father, regardless of sex, age, and child, will kneel and kowtow, and then explain to him that he has a baby at home and ask the other person to name the baby. In the past, most people in rural areas were old scavengers. Some people were unprepared, but because of customs, it was inconvenient to shut them out, so they had to make up their minds. As a result, names such as "Dung Basket", "Rotou", "Dog Baby" and "Cat Baby" came out. Although these names are a bit indecent, they are just nicknames, which are people's favorite names for children. It doesn't matter much if they are called children. In some places, people who are "touched" not only give the baby a name, but also give the baby a gift and are recognized as godmothers. In some places in Shaanxi, the "recognition of godmother" is usually carried out by grandmother or grandfather on the day of the child's "full moon", and the first adult who meets after going out is worshipped as godmother or michel platini. Of course, this kind of "collision" is random, and most occasions are arranged in advance. The first person Bump meets is someone who has a good relationship with his family or status.

In Hangzhou, children also have a custom of "recognizing relatives". The godfather godmother they worship is not a real person, but a "ghost" often mentioned in Lu Xun's articles. There, "parents are afraid that their son will not live long, and they are afraid that it will cost a lot of money to worship their parents, so they don't give it to others, but to ghosts", commonly known as "worship Hu Ganye". According to local legend, ghosts are ghosts specially sent by Yan Luowang to detain the souls of the dead. He sent his children to the ghost, hoping that it would not detain his son's soul to protect his longevity. In the past, the world didn't know the name of the ghost and mistakenly thought it was Hu's surname, so it was called "Hu Ganye". The way to pay homage to Hu Ganye is: the children's parents first make a brand-new white dress, then take it to the temple, change it into the old clothes on the statue of Hu Ganye, and burn it with soju, sesame seeds, incense sticks and silver ingots. Finally, the messenger's son was named by the monks in the temple. Since then, every July, the children's parents will take him to the temple to celebrate the birthday of Grandpa Hu until the children grow up to 16 years old.
