hey guys, can you understand the meaning of this? 除亲友送礼吊丧外, 至亲如儿女亲家, 又须上饭。礼用素席汤饭、龙香彩烛、五花五神、祭轴、绫匾、绫对、四事。” 什么叫龙香彩烛、五花五神、祭轴? 同书解释说: “龙香者, 高三尺许, 上有顶, 下有座, 中立一柱, 盘龙一条, 装饰人物花卉等, 有改用香亭一座者。彩烛亦高三尺许, 下有座, 纸扎白像一对, 像背插烛;或改用宫装仙女, 手擎彩烛。五花五神者, 造像生化五盆, 像生神五位, 长尺有半, 暗藏戏文一出。又改用八仙者。总之愈出愈奇, 愈形讲究而已。此系花神店所造, 用五色绸绢为之。祭轴呢羽绸缎不等, 匾对、挽联, 以白绫黑字为重。” 女儿女婿则须送树灯一架, 形状像树, 故名。 所送树灯越多, 则象征家里人丁兴旺。 it's so difficult for me to find out what kind of objects are! all I know is that is funeral stuff.
