Yi people in Chinese wine culture have friends coming from afar, so why should they sing?

The first course is "Ramon Wine". When you go to Yi Nationality Village, Bai Na, the hospitable Yi people will play trombone, bamboo flute and other folk instruments, and they will stand at the door singing and dancing to welcome guests. Before your feet are firmly established, Yi girls with quick hands and feet will hold a small pot of Yi wine and a fragrant croissant cup. If there are leaves in the croissant cup, it means that the guest will sing a wine song with the host on the spot. Yi people's wine songs are like stars, and there is no fixed touch, but Yi people who are good at singing and dancing will express their feelings with scenery and write songs on the spot for different Hakka ages. The most popular song of Lanmen Liquor is Welcome Tone, which is also a style of wine songs. The welcome song sung in Lanmen wine is very intoxicating: "People who come from afar are guests when they enter the Yi family. Please drink a welcome drink for the guests. Yi's small jar of wine is full of fragrance. After drinking this welcome wine, the Yi people will be happy. After drinking this welcome wine, your spirit will be happy again. "

The second course is "Blessing Wine". After drinking, you can walk into the courtyard paved with Yi people's bluestone slabs. Rich food is spread out on the pine branches in the hall, and the hospitable Yi people will invite you to sit down. After you sit down, wine is essential. The host will propose you two glasses of wine and offer a blessing wine song. Blessing wine songs have ready-made tunes, with warm and high tones. The lyrics are both traditional words and impromptu, but the contents of blessing wine songs are all auspicious words, which can be sung by one person alone or by several people in chorus: "Guests from afar, please drink two glasses of blessing wine from Yi family; A cup of blessing wine, I wish you a healthy life; Two glasses of blessing wine, I wish you a smooth monsoon; Guest, please drink this cup of blessing wine and don't leave a drop. " While dancing, I enjoyed the blessing wine song sung by the Yi people in Wuding (Wuding County, Chuxiong Prefecture, Yunnan Province). Every word and sentence expressed the sincere feelings of the Yi people. I was defeated in the joy and laughter of the blessing wine song, so I had to obediently raise two glasses of wine and gulp it down.

The third way is to "leave wine". The Yi people in Bai Na Township are the best guests, and the hospitable Yi people always want to keep their guests, but all things must come to an end. When the guests leave, the hospitable Yi people send them to the door and invite them to drink the last glass of wine when they leave, which is called the "hospitality wine" of the Yi people. When drinking the guest staying wine, the natural trombone and bamboo flute play the guest staying tune at the same time, the young Yi brothers and sisters dance and sing around, and the host holds a croissant glass and sings the guest staying tune. Although the content of wine songs is ever-changing, it still does not leave the main theme of wishing guests happiness and good luck, as well as the host's concern and retention. Guests must finish this glass of wine before starting a new journey. The intoxicating "staying tone" is up again: "Guests from afar, please stay; Easy small cans of wine are mellow and refreshing; Guests, stay, let's drink a small pot of wine; A small pot of alcohol and refreshing wine can't be drunk for three days and nights; If you really want to leave for a distant guest, please drink this glass of wine left at home. Don't leave if you can't finish this home brew. Drink this home-cooked wine and go if you want. "Playing touching musical instruments, singing touching wine and dancing people. No one doesn't drink this cup of wine because he is far from home.
