Quick answer

How are the seven-day tuần thất and tế ngu related?

Phạm Đình Hổ in Vũ trung tùy bút distinguishes clearly: tuần thất and the hundred-day rite are Buddhist rites, not ancient rites. Tế ngu is an ancient rite, performed after burial. These two systems may be performed together in funerals, but they do not share the same origin and do not replace each other.

From the article “Is the three-day offering (tế ngu) counted from the date of death or the date of burial? An interpretation from Việt Nam phong tục”
