Some people are talking about the superstitious significance of cooking rice husk in the yard of the community.

Boiling rice husk is a superstitious behavior, which is common in folk traditions or customs in some places. This superstition holds that boiled rice husk can ward off evil spirits, exorcise evil spirits or pray for blessings, and has a certain blessing or praying function. Specifically, some people think that boiling rice husk can dispel bad atmosphere, purify the environment, or offer sacrifices to gods and ancestors to achieve peace, auspiciousness and happiness. This kind of behavior occurs in specific festivals, important ceremonies or special occasions, such as the Lunar New Year and sacrificial activities. However, it should be noted that this superstitious behavior is not supported by scientific basis, but belongs to a traditional cultural belief or custom. In any behavior, we should keep rational and scientific thinking, not blindly follow superstition, but look at things based on scientific knowledge and reasonable judgment. This answer is for reference only. Don't be blindly superstitious.
