What is the emphasis on Hefei's 70th birthday?

Birthday to the elders is called a birthday celebration, and the 69th birthday is commonly known as a birthday celebration. Birthday people are mainly close relatives of children, son-in-law and younger generations, and close neighbors and friends know more about congratulations. The whole birthday present includes shroud, Shouren (cake) and Shoutao (steamed noodles). Generally, there are only birthday girls and peaches.

The ancients attached great importance to birthdays.

Generally speaking, people celebrate their birthdays at the age of 70, 80, 90 and 100. Relatives and friends give gifts and watch a play while drinking. The content of the play is mainly wealth and longevity. At the birthday party, there must be a plate of "pig's foot noodles". The birthday girl should be dressed up and sit in the main hall to receive birthday greetings from her children and grandchildren. However, some people dare not celebrate their birthdays because they believe that fortune tellers are "outspoken", so as not to be taken away by black and white impermanence.

Birthday celebrations for the elderly (over 50 years old) are called birthdays every ten days, such as "50th birthday", "60th birthday" and "70th birthday". But this kind of birthday is not really every ten years, but refers to 49, 59, 69 and so on. Because nine is the largest number among ten numbers, people have formed this custom of celebrating "nine does not celebrate ten" in order to get lucky. Send invitations to your close relatives and friends before your birthday, usually three days before your birthday, otherwise it is impolite. As the saying goes, "three days is an invitation, two days is a call, and the same day is a belt." After receiving the invitation, relatives and friends will prepare birthday gifts, commonly known as "birthday greetings". The host will also hold a big birthday party, the guests will drink heavily, and some will invite the church to add to the festive atmosphere. Birthday worship is also called "birthday celebration" Relatives and friends came to congratulate the old man on his birthday. Gifts are mostly peaches, noodles, cloth, cakes with birthday characters. Cloth, commonly known as "Shouzhang", is hung around the ceiling in the yard for guests to see. Write some auspicious words and the sender's name on the birthday account. Men are often endowed with words such as "the benevolent lives long" and "your life is infinite", while women are endowed with words such as "Pengdao Ai Chun" and "Long life".

Shoutang is generally located in the hall, with a curtain on the front and couplets on both sides, such as "longevity is like the East China Sea" and "longevity is better than the South Mountain". On the table of the Eight Immortals, there are incense burners, wax thousand, longevity wax, Oracle Bone Inscriptions, the core monument of life to prolong life, and yellow money, paper ingots and thousands of pieces hanging on both sides of the case. There are foods symbolizing longevity on the long table, such as longevity peaches and noodles. There is a red mat on the ground in front of the square table for worshippers to bow down. People over the same age hold hands, while those below kowtow.

Snuff, flowers for lanterns, twisted into the shape of flowers with colored lantern paper and dipped in sesame oil. The number of snuff is two more than the age of the long-lived people, one is the "animal year" and the other is the "longevity year". In the evening, people who celebrate their birthdays burn incense. Each of their children is holding a lamp tray. They line up outside the door and burn incense with magic codes and money for worshipping God.

There is an old saying in Beijing: "Thirty-three turns, sixty-six die, seventy-three, eighty-four go without asking." "People live fifty-five, and the ghost king counts." 33, 55, 66, 73 and 84 are all two years. People think that people can live long if they live well at this age, or they will die. In order to live longer, people are more careful in Kaner Year and try to "crack" it so as to live longer. The common method is to wear a red cloth belt. It is said that red can ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters. Old Beijing also has the custom of wearing a red cloth belt in the animal year and after 60 years old.

Speech by birthday host

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, friends and relatives:

It is also a midsummer when everything is competing for glory, and it is also the time when the flower season is in full bloom in May. On the beautiful day of 2006 1 month, we got together and held the 80th birthday celebration for the birthday girl.

First of all, please allow me, on behalf of the birthday girl and her family, to express my warmest welcome and heartfelt thanks to all of you present! (Applause)

Today, I was entrusted by the old man's son to be the host of this birthday party. To tell the truth, I don't have the magnetic voice of the announcer, but in order to express my blessing to the elderly, I stepped on the stage with a smile, hoping that everyone could give me applause and encouragement. (Thank you)

Here, on behalf of all the guests, I wish the old people happiness, longevity, wealth and good luck.

Dear friends, distinguished guests, today is really full of talents, encouraging and rejoicing. Old friends, old folks and many relatives came to congratulate. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to eat. Best wishes. This is exactly what it is: family happiness, laughter and longevity.

I don't know if you have noticed that the last word in the name of the old birthday girl is "Shou", which means long life and happiness. Here, let's * * * wish the birthday girl a long life and a happy family.

"Life is seventy years old." In the 80 years of wind and rain, the old people have worked hard to raise their children. Eighty years of ups and downs, eighty years of life in Cang Sang. Tears of years climbed up his forehead and stained the temples of the old man with frost. In this world, children scatter their words into the old man's generous and loving chest. The simple words of "be strict with yourself, be lenient with others, work hard and strive for self-improvement" are engraved in the hearts of children and will never be forgotten. The old man's hard work was not in vain. Under his education, his children have grown up and won unparalleled glory for the elderly. Nowadays, the five generations of the old birthday star family live under one roof, and they are just right to be filial to their sons, capable to their daughters, virtuous to their daughters and strong to their sons-in-law. Even the grandsons, granddaughters and granddaughters who are studying at school are very smart, with excellent grades, and good news is frequently spread, and there are successors. (Applause)

Let's wish the old birthday girl happiness as the East China Sea, and the sun and the moon are bright. Songhe Changchun, before the spring and autumn, the old and the new alternate, and the joy is far longer. At the same time, I wish every guest present a happy and healthy life! Finally, I wish all the guests all the best and all their wishes come true. Let's spend this wonderful time together. Now I declare the official start of the birthday celebration.
