"Seven Treasure Porridge".
In the Hakka customs of Huichang, there has been a custom of cooking "Qibao porridge" on the seventh day of the first lunar month since ancient times. The so-called "Qibao porridge" is boiled in a pot with mushrooms, corn, red dates, golden needle vegetables, red beans, dried longan, and white rice, and is used to worship the "Stove Bodhisattva" after cooking, commonly known as "worship the stove", in order to pray for the Stove King to bless the New Year and the health of people and animals. There are no other meat dishes on the table for dinner on the seventh day of the new year, so the whole family eats "Qibao porridge".
Why did you choose to eat "Qibao Porridge" for dinner on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year? Local customs, starting from the night of the first day of the new year, use porcelain lamps to fill vegetable oil or tea oil, light the lamps with seven lamp grasses, put them in front of the god of the stove, and call it "lighting the stove lamp", which should be lit day and night, for seven consecutive days. On the evening of the seventh day of the first lunar month, when "worshipping the stove", it is necessary to put on offerings of three meat and three vegetables, pay tribute to incense and candles, and set off firecrackers to thank the stove king.
After worshipping the stove", it means that the New Year has passed, and the "stove lamp" will not be lit on the eighth day of the first month.
At present, there are still farmers in Yonglong, Dongtou, Zhongcun, Zhulan, Xijiang and other towns and villages who follow this custom. Some restaurants and small restaurants in the county also cook "Qibao Porridge" or "Eight Treasure Porridge" according to this method, but it is not cooked on the seventh day of the new year, but cooked for customers to eat when they make breakfast in summer.
The sky is deaf and dumb".
According to the customs of the Hakka people in Huichang, the twentieth day of the first month of the lunar calendar is the day of "deaf and dumb". The origin is related to the protection of the residential environment by the Hakka people. Because the residences are built next to the mountain, the back mountain on which the main hall depends is called the "dragon vein".
The land of the "dragon vein" can not be excavated casually, and it is deeply forbidden to destroy the "dragon vein" and commit "rushing". However, the mountain soil is washed by rainwater all year round, and the sediment silts up the ditch behind the house, resulting in poor drainage over time, which will inevitably affect the safety of the house. It is necessary to desilt and remediate to ensure safety, but also not to be jealous of the "dragon vein", so the day of "deaf and dumb" was chosen to break ground.
On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, the whole family, men and women, old and young, went into battle to fill in the mountain soil, dredge the ditches, and plant trees and bamboos to protect the integrity of the "dragon vein". This custom is found in the villages south of the town of Mazhou in Huichang. What is the basis for calling this day a day of "deafness and dumbness"?
The older generations can't say why, but this custom has been practiced to this day. Now it seems that regardless of whether the weather is deaf or not, whether the ground is dumb or not, it is undoubtedly correct to do a good job in the maintenance of water and soil in residential areas and to maintain the safety of residential areas.

There is also "Manifestation Gong out of the street" and so on.
