The first step in Bazashi is to worship the gods. The mother puts a red rooster and a hen in front of the bed kang, and then burns incense to worship the bed father/kang father, the bed mother/kang mother, and then the gods such as giving birth to Niangniang, sending children, Yunxiao Niangniang, Qiongxiao Niangniang, etc. Finally, the midwife poses a statue of Guanyin and worships again.

The second step of washing three is to add a basin. The midwife will put the basin containing the traditional Chinese medicine bath soup such as mugwort leaves and acacia sticks on the kang, and then pick up the child. Then the relatives began to add a spoonful of water to the basin in the order of respecting the elder and inferior, and some people would add some coins, longan, red dates and other objects. What do you add, the midwife will say what kind of blessing words, such as adding water, the midwife will say: "Long water flow, smart and clever", add red dates, longan, the midwife will say: "Raise a child early, even give birth to a noble son", add money, the midwife is the happiest, because after the end of the three washing rituals, the coins in the basin belong to the midwife.

When washing, if the child cries, it is called "ringing basin". When washing, recite the greeting while washing: "Wash your hair first, be a prince; After washing the waist, one generation is taller than the other; The boy grew up to be a magistrate; Girl, growing up and marrying is Zhizhou. Then, comb the baby's fetal hair, and then read: "Three combs, two grates, grow up and wear a red hat; Draw eyebrows on the left, sideburns on the right, and find a daughter-in-law (son-in-law) to return to the village; Brush your teeth, rinse your mouth, and talk to people so as not to be embarrassed. Finally, gently roll the egg on the baby's face and read: "Roll the egg on the face, there is no danger in life." “

After washing, wrap it with a single quilt, pat it 3 times on the child's body with a green onion, take the meaning of Cong (green onion) Mingling, take the scale and lock and compare it a few times, saying that "although the weight is small, the weight is small", and when you grow up, "the head is tight, the feet are tight, and the hands are tight". Also put the baby on the tea tray, with the prepared gold and silver bills, jewelry, etc. to the baby's body, said "left gold and right silver, can not spend to reward people", and finally incinerate the tablet of the gods, washing the three ceremonies before the end. At the time of washing, relatives and friends congratulate them with red envelopes, and the host treats them with pastries, and leaves relatives and friends to eat and wash three noodles!

After washing, there is also an important ritual called the navel burner. That is, the mugwort leaf ball, with ginger slices as a support, symbolically smoked at the baby's head, removed the remnants of the umbilical cord of the newborn, and applied alum, indicating that it is out of pregnancy and officially enters the infant stage.

Clothes and quilts were prepared long ago, and the child's skin was delicate and he could only wear muslin; After a while, Qin Lixue, who had changed into new clothes, was dressed as red as a New Year's doll, and was carried out by Qin Laosan.

The yard began to be lively, most of the guests were gathered, grandpa and grandma also came, and this began to wash three.

Because it's a farmhouse, it's not that complicated, everything is simple! Grandma used to be a stable woman (midwife), so Liu presided over the three baptismal ceremonies!

There were no statues of gods in the farmhouse, so Liu bowed three times to the east of the sunrise. He also placed a copper basin with a soup made of acacia sticks and mugwort leaves, as well as some ceremonial articles, in the courtyard.

Then took over Qin Lixue from Qin Laosan's hands, and the prelude to "washing three" began!

The Qin family took the lead in adding a small spoonful of water to the basin from Qin Laohan, putting some coins, and calling it a basin!

Qin Laohan threw twenty copper plates, and Qin Laosan also threw ten copper plates into the basin. Qin Huan, the eldest aunt of the Qin family, stepped forward and threw ten copper plates, Qin Huan has the atmosphere and elegance of a Jiangnan woman, with charming eyebrows and eyes, and graceful nose and lips, but her cheekbones are high, giving her arrogance and hardness, and her jaw is slightly square, which makes her look atmospheric and powerful. The facial features are fine and the bones are rigid, so that she is not vulgar and absolutely classical beauty!
