Those who pray for a toast should not just stand up, but should return the salute to their host as soon as they stand up. Those who sit to toast should bow after toasting; Those who stand to toast do not have to bow after toasting. All wine glasses that are not used should be placed on the left side; The one that will be used for the toast is placed on the right. Among the three elders who were among the many guests, only one of them was of high standing who washed the wine vessels, and his ritual was the same as that of the virtuous guests.

The many guests standing under the hall face east, with the north as the first place, and if there are those standing facing north, the east is the first. Le Zhenghe, who is in charge of the music, and many guests in the hall accept the advice of wine and serve dishes at one time. Whoever toasts to the virtuous guests, doctors, and musicians must offer dishes. Once the music has begun, the doctor is no longer allowed to enter the main hall.

When offering wine to musicians and sheng players, they should take out the wine vessels from the bamboo vessels that hold them above. After the gift is completed, place the empty vessel in the bamboo vessel below. The master gave gifts to the person who played the sheng and gave it to him on the west steps. The chime is set in the east-west direction, and between the two steps, the person striking the chime faces north. Both the host and the guest were seated from the north, and the feast was removed from the south. The celebrant in charge of the ceremony has to hold the wine vessel to facilitate the toast between the guests and the guests, and at the same time place the dishes in their places.

During the toasting between guests, there is no need to wash the wine utensils. If you don't clean your wine vessels, you don't have to offer wine to your ancestors. Once the ceremony of toasting between the guests began, the scholars were no longer allowed to enter the hall.

When the utensils for the sacrificial offerings are removed, the utensils of the virtuous, the courtiers, and the nobles, and the people who receive the utensils should go out and give them to their entourage as soon as they take the utensils and leave the hall; The master's utensils were collected by the disciples under the wall on the east side of the room. Le Zheng, who was in charge of the music, ordered the performance of "Summer", and when Xianbin retired, the music of "Summer" began to sound. If the prince is present, the doctor's position is north of the master, facing west. The praiser of the master faces west, takes the north as the first place, does not toast, does not use wine for sacrifices, and when it is time to drink heartily, he can participate in the drinking.

The township drinking ceremony was popular all over the country in ancient times, and in ancient times, there were sages who were promoted, and the township doctor was the host to set up a banquet to see him off, and the township doctor was a subordinate official of the local officials. Later, it slowly evolved into a banquet ceremony for magistrates to entertain those who should be raised.

The village drinking ceremony is the etiquette of gathering and feasting on time, and it is roughly divided into four categories: first, when the population and its goods are surveyed every three years, the village doctor of the prince will recommend a virtuous person to his sovereign, and drink with him in the village school, and entertain him with a guest courtesy, and second, the village doctor will use the guest gift to feast on the wise men of the country. Thirdly, the governor would gather the people for archery in the spring and autumn, and he would drink alcohol before archery. Fourth, the party will have a wax festival in the last month of winter. In the "Book of Rites", it is said that the reason why the village drinking ceremony is held is to clarify the order of the elder and the youngest.

In the Book of Rites, it is said that in the village drinking ceremony, people over 60 years old sit, and people over 50 years old stand and wait, waiting for the call, which shows respect for the elderly. A 60-year-old serves 3 dishes, a 70-year-old serves 4 dishes, an 80-year-old serves 5 dishes, and a 90-year-old serves 6 dishes, which indicates devotion to the elderly. The common people know how to respect the elderly, know how to serve the elderly, and then they can be filial to their parents and respect their brothers at home. At home, filial piety to parents and respect for elder brothers can respect the elderly and the elderly in society, and then education can be formed. Indoctrination is formed, and then the country can be stabilized. The way for a gentleman to teach people to be filial to their parents and respect their elder brothers is not to go from house to house and constantly go to their ears every day to mention their orders, but to gather people together during the village shooting ceremony and show them the village drinking ceremony, so that they can cultivate the atmosphere of filial piety to their parents and respect for their elder brothers.

The significance of the township drinking ceremony lies in distinguishing the order of the elders and the young, and using a moral practice activity with universal significance to achieve the moral trend of filial piety, respect for the virtuous, and respect for the elderly, so as to achieve the purpose of moral rule and education.
