Today is the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, which is the traditional festival of our Chinese nation-the Double Ninth Festival. Conclusion: Although the Double Ninth Festival is over, our love and respect for the elderly will never end. I hope everyone can pay more attention to the old people around them, spend more time with them, chat with them and be filial.

Double Ninth Festival is a traditional folk festival in China, which falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month every year. The number of "Nine" is the number of Yang in the Book of Changes, and the number of "Nine Nine" is the same, so it is called "Double Ninth Festival". Because the day and the month meet on the ninth day, it is also called "Double Ninth Festival". Double Ninth Festival is an auspicious day.

In ancient times, folk customs such as climbing mountains and praying for blessings, drinking and praying for ancestors were carried forward, which increased the connotation of respecting the elderly. Climbing the mountain to enjoy autumn and giving thanks to respect for the elderly are two important themes of today's Double Ninth Festival.

According to historical records, Chongyang cake is also called flower cake, chrysanthemum cake and five-color cake, and the production method is arbitrary. Dawn on September 9 is the original intention of the ancients to make cakes in September. Exquisite Chongyang cake should be made into nine layers, like a pagoda, with two lambs on it, which conforms to the meaning of Chongyang (sheep).
