Who knows the custom of "three women in one pit" in Shanghai?

"Three girls in the pit" is the most distinctive folk custom during the Lantern Festival in Shanghai. Miss Kensang is a goddess in folklore. She came to earth on the night of the fifteenth day of the first month. A woman chooses a bamboo dustpan for sweeping garbage, with a thread hanging in the middle and a silver hairpin hanging down. Burn incense and pray first, and pray for Miss KengSan to come down to earth. Sprinkle flour on the table or the ground in advance, shake the dustpan on it, and the silver hairpin hanging from the dustpan will also shake, so that irregular patterns or "words" will be drawn on the flour, and women can predict the future according to this pattern and "words". People like to pray for peace and happiness in this way.

There is also a saying that the fifteenth day of the first month is the day when the kitchen god returns, so it is necessary to light a lamp to guide the kitchen god.

The midnight snack will last until late at night. After the lights are turned off, this year's Spring Festival celebration will come to an end at dawn.
