Are there any particular requirements for kneeling at a funeral?When kneeling and worshipping in the mourning hall, one usually kowtows four times. The deceased children stand around the spirit tablet. When someone comes, the deceased children must respond by kowtow to the same number of people as others do. This is called returning the favor on behalf of the elders (usually the eldest grandson will give a thank you gift on behalf of the deceased, and both the direct male and female relatives will do so).In the mourning shed (that is, the mourning shed built before the funeral, not the mourning hall. It is not necessary to build one, the place is usually fixed, and each village has a fixed place), there are nine kowtows: At this time, the people who kowtow are usually the son-in-law of the deceased and the descendants of the deceased's in-laws. At this time, they bow once and kowtow once, and kowtow four times, which is the four diligences. The children of the deceased also bow and kowtow along with the people who are kowtowing (usually grandchildren and nephews take over), then take three steps forward and kowtow once, first hold up the incense and circle it in the air, then offer three cups of wine (I don't know if women do this), then step back three steps, bow once and kowtow four times, which is the four times of laziness. There are nine in total, which conforms to the saying of three bows and nine kowtows. When others went to kowtow, the son and grandson would return the greetings, while the daughter would usually cry beside the table. The meaning of the four diligences is one bow and one kowtow, and the meaning of the four lazinesses is one bow and four kowtows, with a pause in between. In Rizhao, it is called the four diligences and four lazinesses, with a pause in between.
