If you wish yourself a Happy Tomb-Sweeping Day, wouldn't it be impolite not to say hello to each other? Then tell the other person: "You (ghost) are happier!"
Most people think that Tomb-Sweeping Day is a festival to honor the souls of the dead, so it sounds awkward to wish others a happy Tomb-Sweeping Day. Speaking of the Qingming Festival, there are actually many happy things. When I was in elementary school, one year during the Qingming Festival, I participated in an event where all the primary and secondary school students in the county went to the Martyrs Cemetery to sweep the tombs.
The night before Qingming Festival, parents prepared dry food for their children for the next day. Early the next morning, the school organized a unified departure. Each class held high the red flag and walked more than 20 miles to commemorate the martyrs near the county seat. Monument sweeping. They sang revolutionary songs all the way, with great vigor and vigor, and everyone was in high spirits and high spirits. The Martyrs Monument is located halfway up a hillside, with red flags flying across the hillside and crowds of people making it dazzling.
The students have never been to such a far place, let alone seen such a big scene. Everyone was excited. There are various procedures for sweeping the tomb, and the students just followed the teacher. Now they can hardly remember all the procedures. The only thing I remember the most is that a very old Long March cadre told us the story of the Long March for a long time. We were far away from the podium and the noise was so loud that we couldn't hear clearly what the veteran Long March cadre said.
Everything was just a formality. On the way back, everyone had time to enjoy the scenery along the way. A group of classmates walked back sparsely. We worked hard all the way and laughed all the way. Now when I think about the happy things at that time, I always have endless aftertaste.
