Children like flying birds, such as tigers, leopards, monkeys, and cockfights to chase rabbits. Young people are the most particular about wearing sachets. If it is a lover in love, the amorous girl will carefully make one or two unique sachets very early, and give it to her lover before the festival. The young man wears the sachet given by his sweetheart, which naturally attracts comments from the men and women around him, and praises the ingenuity of the young man's object.
