After the "bridge" is built on the second day of the second lunar month, a sacrificial ceremony called "respecting the bridge" needs to be held. This sacrificial activity will continue on the second day of the second lunar month every year thereafter. If a child is born within three years of building the "bridge", the "round bridge" ceremony must be held in the third year after the child is born, and the bridge must be respected for the rest of the child's life. Families who have not had a child for three years must continue to "respect the bridge" until the child is born. Therefore, February 2 is also called the "Respect the Bridge" Festival. On the day of "Jingqiao", the local Miao people, regardless of gender, age or status, all dress up in their best clothes and go to "Jingqiao". Children are dressed in new clothes and have net bags filled with colored eggs hanging on their chests. This can be called the "Children's Day" of the Miao people. During the bridge banquet, if a passerby comes across the bridge for the first time, it is considered a good omen, and the bridge owner will invite him to stay for a meal, show him warm hospitality, and give him colored eggs and glutinous rice as gifts.
