What does it mean to bury the golden couple?

"Golden wedding funeral" refers to a ceremony specially arranged by ancient people to mourn the dead. This kind of ceremony is usually performed by boys and girls aged 14 to 16, and candles, glutinous rice and wreaths are presented to the deceased at the funeral ceremony. These young girls must be virgins or teenagers, pure and spotless, in order to hold this position.

"Funeral Golden Wedding" is an important part of traditional funeral in China. This ceremony reflects the solemnity of China people's funeral and their willingness to respect the dead. In the traditional concept of China people, as a "golden funeral wedding", the young girl is pure and flawless, which represents the proper burial of family ancestors and the best performance of the sacrificial ceremony after burial. Therefore, "golden wedding funeral" has a very important symbolic significance in ancestor worship and funeral ceremony.

Nowadays, with the continuous development and change of society, the tradition of "burying gold couples" has gradually disappeared. This is not only because the "golden couple's funeral" has extremely high moral requirements and constraints, but also because these young girls are too young to undertake such an important task. At present, people use more professionals to take charge of funeral ceremonies, which can be better completed and more in line with modern lifestyles and values.
