端午节
今早被妈妈从温暖的被窝叫醒。原来，爸爸腰带我们去李氏总会参加他们的端午节的活动。
这是我第一次在爸爸参加李氏总会，成为他们的会员后，我第一次参加李氏总会的活动。
由于天不作美，我们只好电召德士去那里。我想不到的是，端午节的传说原来不只是驱元，还有另外两个不为人知的传说。
我在那里吃了八种不同的粽子，真的好饱啊！！！
今天真的搜获不少，对端午节有更深的了解。
Pantang- Meaning Things Not To Do In Hokkien
There are certain things which some Chinese are pretty particular with:- Happy and sad events can't clash together within 100 days to a year. If a relative or loved one were to pass away, the immediate family member can't attend a happy event, like wedding & housewarming. The Teochews treat their eldest male grandchild as their youngest son. If you are getting married & your friend who is getting married invites you to his wedding, u are not allowed to attend. The old people say happy events clash. The red packet can't be given twice for a happy event. Likewise for the condolence packet. One should not give shoes or lamp to a birthday boy or gal, as it is believed that you may bring the person to his deathbed. These are some interesting stuff to share, especially to some blog readers who are not living in a place filled with Chinese.
