Today is the eighth day of the fourth month of the lunar calendar. It is a traditional festival in the Zhuang area for offering sacrifices to the cow god-the Ox King Festival. On that day, the farmer gave the cattle a day off, and each household refurbished the cattle pens. The village elders commented on the cattle in the village and warned each family to take good care of the cattle. Family steamed five-color glutinous rice, wrapped in loquat leaves to feed the cows. In some places, offerings of wine, meat, melons and fruits were placed in the halls. The parents led an old cow to walk around the offerings and sang as they walked to praise and reward the cow’s merits. . Since the 1970s, the color of respecting the cow god in the Ox King Festival has faded, but the wind of respecting and protecting the cow still exists. People are still used to making five-color (color) glutinous rice that day, shared by family, relatives and friends, which means harvest, happiness and well-being. "
