Birthday celebration is also called birthday. The birthday celebration originates from not knowing when, which ancestor did it, or is it established by convention, and it seems that it also contains a certain cultural connotation.
Birthday is a ceremony to celebrate the birthday of the elders. Those who wish birthdays are mainly children, younger generations and close friends. Traditional whole life includes longevity account, shroud, longevity cake, longevity peach, etc...
Generally folks make birthdays, seventy is the big birthday, eighty is the first birthday, ninety is the old birthday, and a hundred years old; there are also celebrations of more than fifty birthdays, called the tenth birthday, such as: fifty, sixty, seven Ten birthday and so on. But this kind of birthday is not just ten, but it refers to forty-nine, fifty-nine, sixty-nine, etc.... the age of nine is the birthday, because nine has the largest value among the ten numbers; again, people Traditionally, thirty-three, sixty-six, seventy-three, and eighty-four are regarded as the hurdle year, which can be regarded as the threshold in human life, so it is also celebrated as the birthday. As the saying goes: "Thirty-three turns a big turn, sixty-six loses a piece of meat, seventy-three and eighty-four Yamas don’t ask themselves to go," and “fifty-five Yamas counts and counts.”
There are various forms of birthday celebrations, with different customs in different regions, and of course different status and conditions. Traditionally, relatives and friends send gifts. Some put on a big banquet, and the birthday star was sitting in the main hall in full dress to accept birthdays from children and grandchildren. Some invited song and dance troupes, some showed movies, and some sang operas. The guests and friends watched the opera while drinking. The content of the opera was mainly wealth and longevity. However, the development of the times is constantly updated, and the scope of birthday celebrations is also continuously expanded, breaking the traditional limitations. Now children also celebrate birthdays. During the Kannian year, we used to make dumplings for longevity people, and then gave them birthday levies. Now some give birthday gifts, paintings and calligraphy.... Cake No. 1 Picture Cake No. 2 Picture Cake No. 3 Picture Cake No. 4"
