Hanni folklore: the history of Mother's Day

the mother's festival is a traditional hani festival.

the time is usually the first cow day in the second month of the agricultural calendar.

a long time ago, it was said that a young widow had taken her son to be an adult and married her daughter-in-law as a family, in a painful manner.

however, good mothers are not rewarded, their sons not only do not honour their mothers, but also their mothers are beaten daily, their lives are ignored, and their mothers die in the river without suffering.

to remember the grace of the mother, the son chose a tree near the house as a symbol of the mother.

every year, the rituals of the hani tradition are celebrated by the mothers' day, which is the day when people wear beautiful clothes, with their offerings, and gather in front of a large tree by the village, tearing up the balconies, putting on the floors, and placing on the floor the offerings of wine, meat, chicken, sugar cane, candy, etc.

in the room, the elders speak of old times and teach young people to love and love.

people talk about, and judge, the good and bad situation of each family with regard to their parents.
