On the Lantern Festival night on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the local people have a strange custom of "turning over the old foundation" (that is, cursing).

Every year at midnight snack, people on both sides of the East and West will come to their respective hills and slopes with lanterns and stoves, set up a case, light candles, offer fragrant tea, cigarettes and sweets, and choose battalion commanders who take the lead in helping to scold. Some of them have superb scolding skills, great wit and Hong Zhong voices, and some are resourceful and good at debunking others, taking the lead in lambasting each other.

Uncle and daughter must return to their home before dinner (some areas may stay for dinner because of the distance).
