Tengzhou classic culture, good articles for Tengzhou citizens

Haha, this is an assignment assigned by the teacher, for a sixth grader!

The "year" and the "festival" are two different things on the seventh day of May, but in our Tengzhou Usually, farmers celebrate only one New Year a year, but craftsmen in Tengzhou celebrate the second New Year on the seventh day of the fifth lunar month. The anniversary of Lu Ban's death is also scheduled on June 13, which is in the Gregorian calendar. On this day, carpenters build the incense stand in the courtyard into a temple-like ceiling, filled with green bamboo and pine branches, and worship inside. There is a spiritual tablet bearing the name "Grand Master Lu Ban", and sacrifices such as live chickens and fishes, whole pigs and whole sheep are placed in front of the tablet, so that the good things that Lu Ban could not eat in the world can be enjoyed in heaven. On both sides of the shed door are rows of adzes, chisels, axes and saws made by Master Lu Ban. They are polished and wrapped in red silk. They are displayed as offerings. When the firecrackers are blasting in the east, the whole family takes turns to add incense to the wine. Prone on the red mat on the ground, kneel down and pray, praying to Lord Lu Ban for the prosperity of the country and the prosperity of the family. Only in Lu Ban's hometown can we commemorate Lu Ban in this grand way during the New Year. It is a pity that this precious tradition of respecting ancestors and teachers was swept away as a monster in a historical catastrophe 40 years ago.
