1. Make "Oiled Sesame Balls"
In the Chaozhou area, the use of "oil sesame balls" as sacrifices also has a certain history. Because the "tuan" in "youmatuan" is not pronounced as "tuowan5" by Chaozhou people, but as "yuan", "tuan" happens to have the same pronunciation as "yuan", so the Chaozhou people in ancient times had the important custom of "getting married" on the Double Ninth Festival, which means to get married well. On this day, neighbors visit each other and give each other "You Ma Tuan". This is a concrete manifestation of the trendy people's emphasis on etiquette, unity and friendship.
