First, place food, bowls, chopsticks, wine glasses, tea and other offerings on the graves of ancestors, and then light three incense sticks in front of the graves.2. After placing offerings to the land god who looks after graves, burn a piece of yellow paper. This custom is called "worshiping the land god" or "offering offerings to the "grave god". It is used to thank them for guarding the tomb all year round and protecting the ancestors from harm. 3. When the incense stick is half burned, burn the paper money and clothes prepared in advance on the graves of ancestors. A small amount of money and belongings are left and burned on other graves, for fear that other ghosts will go to the graves of ancestors and steal money and clothes after the people who visit the graves leave. 4. When the three incense sticks are burned out, the offerings are removed and scattered around the grave. This custom is called "worshiping the four directions." It means to throw food to the distant relatives and neighbors who go to visit the graves, so that they will not grab food from the graves of their ancestors after the visitors leave.

This is called "water lanterns".Most of them are made of paper in the shape of a palace with wax burning inside. Inside is a colorful triangular paper flag, known as the "Pudu flag". The flag is written with a brush on it with "Celebrate the Zhongyuan Festival", "Widely donate Yulan", "Respect the Yin Light", "May the Dark Light Shine Everywhere", and other "Zhongyuan honorifics" and the donor's name, along with the donor's name, to let the good brothers (a respectful name for the dead in Minnan dialect) know which donor is offering the sacrifice. Some people also write directly on the lantern without using a flag. It is said that the farther the water lantern floats, the more blessings the donor will receive.
