? One of the Qingming customs is sweeping graves. Last Sunday, grandma took me to the village to sweep the grave. I saw that they prepared paper money, incense and firecrackers. When you arrive at the grave of your ancestors, put all the prepared tributes: spinach, tofu, lotus seeds, fragrant rice, eggs, steamed bread, etc. Wrap it in paper with China's calligraphy written on it, light incense, put it in front of your grave, and burn all the paper money, indicating that your ancestors have received it and can spend it in the underworld. Grandma told me what these tributes represent. Spinach and tofu represent clear and white. Lotus vegetables represent future generations to be careful and not careless. Sweet rice and eggs represent the sweetness of future generations. The steamed bread is wrapped in paper written in China's calligraphy, which means that your ancestors told you to be a literate person. My mother told me that Hubei is a little different. We have prepared paper money, gold ingots, paper clothes and shoes. First, we put flowers made of plastic on the top of the tomb and incense in front of it. Then, we burn these things, light firecrackers and kowtow, and the ceremony is finished.
? The second custom in Tomb-Sweeping Day is to go for an outing. After sweeping the grave, we will pick some green plants around the grave and take them home, which is also called picking green.
? Qingming is a legal holiday, and everyone comes back to visit the grave, which also provides an opportunity for the living relatives to reunite.
