February 2004, the fourth day of the fertility festival. The villagers
started to dance to lusheng and bronze drum and a magical tree was planted
in the centre of the ground. Men and women in festival dress danced
together, the girls wearing plenty of silver. All the girls who had
married into other villages or places also came back for the dancing.
Everyone from the village joined in the dancing, whether rich or poor,
male or female, young or old. |
