Why do you want to send lights to Fujian Lantern Festival?

1, meaning to send a lamp: In order to add good omen, the lamp is homophonic with Ding.

From Spring Festival to the eve of Lantern Festival, Fuzhou has the folk custom of sending lanterns. For married daughters, the bride's family always sends a lamp, and "lamp" is homophonic with "ding", which means jiading. In the first year, send Guanyin to send children. In the second year, if there are no children or daughters, we will send "God-given" lamps and "sitting on a basin" lamps. In the third and fourth years, if there are no children, send an "orange" lamp to show "anxiety". After giving birth to a child, you can send a "champion riding" lamp and a "God-given Kirin" lamp until your nephew 16 years old. There is a folk nursery rhyme: "On the Lantern Festival in the first month, grandma loves her nephew (grandson), and red orange lanterns add happiness." It reflects the social fashion that grandma loves her grandson. Yang Rongcheng's late "Zhuzhici" said: "Children are blessed with happiness, and brides are full of sunshine. At night, I have to unload the gold hairpin and report it to my parents to send a lamp. " This poem depicts the grand occasion of sending lanterns at that time.
