The origin and custom of the wine festival

According to legend, Mu Lian's mother has always been arrogant. After her death, her soul was punished for not eating, and all the meals sent by Manglietia were eaten by ghosts. It was not until the ugly "nine porridge" that her mother got a meal. The custom of Aojiu Festival is to cook sweet porridge with glutinous rice, brown sugar, peanuts, red dates, sesame seeds, longan and other raw materials to worship ancestors or give gifts to relatives and friends.
