Question: Hi Master Cecil..during Qingming .. can we proceed to open the door?

Reply: Yes Qing Ming this year (2019) is on 5th April. If you need to go visit.. then do so before open door.

Question: normally we dun go to qingming.. cos my kids are still young.. is our parents will go.. hence do we need them to go first before we open the door?

Reply: If you don't need to. Then Qing Ming is a non-issue for you. 

Is just like, if you are suppose to go visit. But happily go open door etc.. then "they will be angry".

How to be angry with you if your never go qing ming?
