And the cooking is most common, whether it is rice, millet, corn, potato or taro and other staple foods are generally cooked rice or boiled into a gruel plus, sometimes the taro potato or vegetables added to the rice, porridge being. Often dominated by cooking fish. They rarely eat steaming method, only in the festive holiday or a grand sacrificial ceremony, before the glutinous rice, sticky rice cake made of steamed millet, wine is also useful when the distillation. For taro, potato and fish, bushmeat and so on, they like to use the baking method. Catch, especially when hunting deer, they would immediately kill, barbecue, game hunters and bring out the aroma of hunting desire and confidence. Sometimes removed from the tree nest eggs, baked directly on the wood on, when they go out as a nutritious dry food. When they come back fishing, the fish will eat up storage grilled, left to the off-season consumption. Amy Tan in hunting or the next, the next Haiti fish came back, put the fish or meat. Inserted in the bamboo pole, or hanging on the bamboo rack, burned a blazing wood below, until the fish oil, meat, oil droplets into the fire sound before the cease-fire eating, and that sweet crisp soft fish, bushmeat verses and fabulous.
Gaoshan food addition to grain and fruit. Many of Taiwan's tropical fruits, guava, pineapple, sugar cane, betel nut, plum, plums, etc., everything. The way food is varied, can be made into preserves, dried fruit, canned, and so on. Really delicious food is not light!
Diet, diet, there should drink, drink on the water, wine. Gaoshan people living in group long-term nature, usually do not like to drink water, thirsty to drink directly stream or spring. Only sick people to drink boiled water. Do not drink water, drink a natural tea has become even more. Gaoshan tea is later learned came from the Han Chinese, this is something.
Can not drink the water, but can not drink wine. A beam in Gaoshan spread of such a society, "Ode to the motherland Song": "I am the most courageous ancestors Weng, deer, bear case alive, fighting with the horse to go straight, vertical drinking wine is not drunk in case" can be seen from Gaoshan ancestors The extraordinary bravery, heroic spirit of the momentum. Drinking habits and Gaoshan living environment, labor needs and fighting with the nature of courage is required to have a direct relationship. Wine, the food culture in Gaoshan occupy a very important position, in addition to the Ami people, other parts of Gaoshan almost all drinking habits. In their daily life and social life, everywhere you can find see the shadow of the wine. Generally, wedding, baby fall, festivals, building to construct the building, hunting, fishing, religious worship, are all closely linked with the wine. To this end, they have to pre-brewing wine, to the banquet when the carnival, hand dance, thoroughly enjoyed themselves to make drunk, seems like the gods, enjoyable, to forget all the troubles of the realm. Usually, they Han Chinese businessmen to buy alcohol, or to prey switching, and other wine of a hand, will drink the enjoyment, until the half-awake drunk. Before we bring a few bottles home. For Gaoshan, the drinking is not just a man's patent. According to historical records the Qing Dynasty: Formosan people who are good wine, the wine until cooked, they each bring their own wine that, to the village in the convergence of men and women, groups sitting on the ground, or coconut bowl with a wooden ladle to take the wine, while drinking while dancing, a Feifei steaming, carnival for three consecutive nights, no drunk. That are used to make the grain millet wine as a raw material, they will not go back.

Peking Marriage Awards
Formerly known as Peking, Beijing, 1928, the national government capital in Nanjing, was changed to the special city of Peking, nineteen years and was renamed Peiping, directly under the jurisdiction of the Executive Yuan, referred to as municipality, located in northern Hebei Province currency. Due to "cultural ancient capital," said the customs of the impact on social life, when the more far-reaching. By Peking wedding, there are four general common person, the so-called North ceremony, south ceremony, flag ceremony, salute; but since the Republic, the "Southern Man" seems to mix in the "North Man" into, and then collectively, the "Peking wedding" was.
Wedding program is:
First, divination
Divination of the vulgar, is not unique to one city and one county, the country most of this, of course, Peking is no exception. In the north a person's age in mind, the most important zodiac, in particular, to marry, all the zodiac of allelopathy depends on the behavior.People spouse for their children, must be "matchmaker" from two "propose marriage", the steps are, first ask the matchmaker zodiac girls, and get the "character", the girl's "character" to the groom, and then obtain boy's "character" re-send the woman home, both sides please "fortune teller" fortune-telling, such as hit men and women did not vying for the office, and there is the possibility of marriage only when the proposed marriage, or although the "perfect match", only to give up, and this move commonly known as "divination."Proposed marriage success, the biggest key to all the divination of the "fortune teller" a word may be. So, if one of them into the very hope of a good thing, as much in advance divination "fortune teller" bribe people.As the saying goes: "White Horse Youth guilty of cattle, sheep, mouse, once off, the wrong knife tiger snake, dragon rabbit tear exchange, Jade Rooster fear dogs, not pigs monkey head." Relative to men and women have committed more than Zodiac, marriage would be difficult to Yue He the. Conversely, if two of the Zodiac with students, on the other conditions can be accommodated. The Zodiac is appropriate Match: "mouse with cattle, pigs tiger with the sheep with rabbit, horse with a dog." Liangzao men and women is the most important. Also: groom Qiuqin, very sensitive to a tiger, a sheep girl. As the saying goes: "Tiger door, will be hurt." And there is a sheep girl "life hard quebracho," said. So if a female family eager to mate, which is very desirable when a home boy, to achieve their goals, often hiding the true sign of the Zodiac, otherwise it is difficult to succeed.
Second, blind
Divination results, as the two sides are not in committed sign of the Zodiac, the second step is a blind procedure, in conjunction with both parents by the matchmaker, convention venues, or in any one home meet, as the saying called "love." Both sides of the note, is whether the correct appearance of men and women, whether physical disability, this is mostly accompanied by a matchmaker who groom together about women at home, but also about the groom's, then women have to pay attention to the groom's family family situations and economic conditions. See if the luxurious furnishings, places for well-off, of course, happy to arrange a match; see if the interior depression, utterly destitute, and many children, places for poor families, marriage proposal, when a negative attitude will be adopted.If the results of blind date when both parties are satisfied, then check the character of men and women two of the "three." The so-called "three" is check whether the relative harm their parents place. If we can get guitar, and then write the marriage certificate, and the sedan chair, got down and preparing for the wedding of the hour, orientation, and accept money, pro-Ying date, write in detail on the marriage certificate.
Third, put a small set
Both men and women believe that they can get married, the next step is the next "small set" ceremony. "Small set" of the gift, and not a certain standard, ordinary people are almost four boxes of gift. Such as gold bracelets, rings, wishful, and Joel Diamond Chai Chuan variety of jewelry and the like, packing boxes; cloth and embroidered skirts and other items also loaded into the two boxes. Jewelry is pure gold, followed by a gold, silver bracelet again have to buy, of course, should both social class and economic circumstances.
Woman home to display the entire day, banquet tables, entertainment to the next ceremony Damei, pay attention to the people, there are 20 kind of fruit, these fruit are four dirty, four honey, four dry, four fresh, four snacks and so on. Women after the family received the gift of the groom, the groom should get back four which gifts, such as: four treasures of the box, boots (shoes) hat box, the long robe box, cloth box. These gifts would be grateful matchmaker back in the day, to the groom.
Customs of old Beijing pets
In the New Year when things inevitably think of the past, such as Beijing, in particular, has a heavy cultural heritage of the city. Beijing pet's long history, learning, pay attention to abound. From pet practices change, we can find traces of life changes.
Cats
Cats, is the fun things of life, and a long time, "Book of Rites" there is documented. Cats pay attention to varieties of old Beijing, mostly elderly people for your hair, "four five-inch soft hair who is Jane." This cat utmost mighty head, and long hair hanging shawl, like lion of the phase, it is called lion cat. Within this species, but also to coat the difference between good and bad to compete with the cat.
Who is generally believed that white, yellow for the top grade, black persons, variegated those times. They give different patterns according to fur Blair said, such as black-tailed white person, known as "timely"; upper and lower body black and white persons, that the "dark clouds covering the snow"; white head and tail with a black person as "whipping Hydrangea." It is said that cats are hundreds of kinds of color changes, but the excellent and rare. In addition, the cat who will be a two-color harmony is called "male and female eye." Vulgar to say "a father, a mother," This is the "Persian kind." But Beijing does not like to keep the old white-tailed cat, that ominous.
Cats are well-off early in goat cooked, chopped mixed with white rice, bibimbap, intestinal pain to those who smoked, followed by poor households buy salt from the oil, salt and dried fish store, that the "cat fish" , open chopped hair with warm water, mixed with the corn bread in the crumple slag yard, belonging to poor feeding.
Beijingers think of cats is a noble taste, its origin mostly the relatives and friends giving each other, that gift. At that time the old Beijingers do not sell cats, also selling cats, selling a dog as a symbol of bankruptcy, never refused to.
Many celebrities have cats. For example, the famous painter Feng cats, painting cats; Bing elderly cat Mimi spectrum in the name "snow Song carbon"; Lao She, cats, Duanmu Hongliang Mr. cats. Writer raised the cat has a "superiority", which is often described by the famous flower article.
Some cat breeds are also given a special significance to the cat --- Elvis. It is said that "Elvis" of conditions are: weight to be up to eight pounds or more, that "eight pounds of cat can be extremely heavy force rat"; its color is limited to pure yellow or pure fox, and there tiger, oval head, ears small and thin ; eyes to be so-called "night light golden eyes" are. The mask must be a white helmet child mouth, red nose, mouth and belly the size of a finger next to each piece of yellow dots, commonly known as "Hudie" tentacles as hard as steel needle. Whether yellow, raccoon fur, belly to be pure white. Formed by the long-haired tail, shaped like a "flame", that the "unicorn tail", often do not know as "bald tail root." Overall that is lion, tiger body, unicorn tail. In addition, Elvis Presley are male, female on the spectrum is not all.
Dogs
Dogs and humans deal with, but also a long time. Beijing is now all over the street are a "pair of Beijing", "ancestors" is very noble. Enjoying the dogs were kept in the palace, "poodle" (Pekinese), six seven inches high, twelve pounds weight, especially in the purple-red, white precious, so-called "liquid gold purple to white as silver," the sentence.
Gokokuji temple in the old Beijing city have a dog, but the transactions are viewing the dog: sleeve dogs, pit dogs. Beat only the size of the dog sleeve, then naturally aggressive, sometimes called "fighting dog" can be hidden in the sleeve, which is why the name. Two pet dogs will be placed on a table and watch his dog fighting, biting, to win a music.
This is mostly idle rich of the perpetrator, and the chess, tea, drawing on the intersection of which, when considered elegant things. "Ceiling aquarium pomegranate tree, Mr. fat dog fat girl," these two brilliantly summarized the Beijing courtyard, indicating that the pet dog was in the servant than the master houses is much higher.
Cricket
Crickets, we Beijingers call it "cricket", also known as Cu Zhi. People have "Cu Zhi-ming, slut scared," the slang. Wind and Qiu, winter clothing can no longer slow, Cuzhi song that is moral courage has come to urge the woman knitting needlework, weaving clothing.
Cricket is a widely distributed insects, the crickets in Beijing to Beijing North Sujiatuo the "prostrate child crickets" and Jingxi Fushouling the "green hemp head" the best. Old Beijing to support cricket, cricket fighting very particular about the equipment in use before the winter solstice clarified slurry tank is made of Cheng lake mud slurry type, made of kiln firing. Three to four years, production artists in the "Clay Yellow Five," "mark", "Tongzhou Lee" and the most famous.

Since the Mid-Autumn Festival to the Chung Yeung Festival after about a number of specialized support cricket, and prepare the battlefield, then under the posts about people. Invitation to write most of the skin is "Le combat nine autumn." Cricket battle, this is a natural instinct of insects, but often mixed with many ingredients in them.
Fifties or sixties, cricket is a Beijing children at no cost or very cheap stuff (of course, no grade here), probably no boys have never played cricket.
Goldfish
Renowned pet goldfish in the water at home and abroad, is China's traditional culture, a bright pearl in the treasure house. Department of carp goldfish variants, if its Sechi and scales flashing gold, hence the name goldfish. Many varieties of goldfish. Heaven, dragon eye, pearl, red head, hat, velvet beads, bubble eyes, lion head ... ... Beijing Geely plans, discuss the goldfish is "more than auspicious," "every year more than" the mouth of color.

Oscar fish is very cold, the twelfth lunar month, is the little gold fish the best sales month of the season. Poor to buy two little gold fish, and coax the children, and Geely plans, to discuss a "coming more than" sign. In fact, the children play a few days after the fish on top of all the "backstroke" the. While the identity, standing Zhu Er, home fish fish skill Sinong is proprietary.
Old Beijing family of fish, usually in three-foot circular cylinder or rectangular glass tank as much, while those with a family rich earthen pot kept. Has long been used because of the time, the basin has a layer of dried moss green, Guan Yu is more beautiful.
Aviculture, Yang Gezi
