Before the official ridge-raising ceremony, most of Liu Yang Village had turned up, because not only was there a spectacle to watch, but following the traditional custom after the ridge was raised, Mo Family would also distribute candy, steamed buns, and other foods, an irresistible temptation for the villagers.
