However, young men and women have feelings in their daily communication, but they can't get married. In March and April of every year, that is, during the busy farming season, the married girls go home to help one after another. Young boys take this opportunity to make a human figure with tender green thatch on the slope where they used to associate, and insert it on the slope to send a signal to the girls to express the pain of Acacia. The married girls went up the mountain in groups. On the slope, they express their love for each other for many years in the form of couplet songs, pour out their love and helplessness to each other, and encourage unmarried young men and women to break through the secular shackles and pursue their own happiness.
