2. Buy yellow straw paper, spread it out, then take a real hundred-yuan bill and press it on the paper. You should feel that the hundred-yuan bill is a stamp. Press it from right to left and from top to bottom, row by row, until the whole paper is covered.
4. Before burning paper for your relatives, light two pieces and throw them outside the circle to answer the lonely ghosts who have no relatives to send money.
5. Before burning paper, draw a circle on the ground where you want to burn it. Be careful not to circle yourself inside. Leave a gap in the northwest corner to make it convenient for relatives below to come in and take the money.
6. Keep a serious expression when burning paper, don't laugh or play around. Since you are here, just be respectful.
7. Fold the paper for burning, cut it into seven or eight pieces with one cut, and fold it diagonally twice each time. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to burn a pile of paper. It is very convenient to stack them up and burn them.
6. When burning paper, you should chant something, such as: XXX, I am sending you money and flowers. Today all your grandchildren and brothers and sisters have come to see you.
7. When burning paper, you must wait until the paper is burned out before leaving. This can prevent fire and also prevent the wind from blowing the paper out and being picked up by passers-by, which would upset the elderly person.
