Every Spring Festival, I will follow my parents back to my grandfather's house for the New Year.
On the morning of New Year's Eve, at dawn, every household began to burn incense and put a blessing on the door to show that the whole family would be safe for one year. After breakfast, the children help to hang lanterns and paste Spring Festival couplets behind the adults. The glue used there is also very special, not with double-sided tape or adhesive tape, but with paste. Hang lanterns first, and red lanterns above the door. Commonly known as "shining high", it means "the lucky star shines high". Then, post Spring Festival couplets.
After children and adults finish their work together, adults will buy firecrackers for children. Both boys and girls like to set off firecrackers. Just find a merchant on the street, all of whom sell new year's goods. Firecrackers sell quickly there; Fireworks, firecrackers, Lei Zi and firecrackers are very popular, especially fireworks, which are often bought by adults on New Year's Eve. There are many sweets there, too. During the Spring Festival, adults will buy many sweets for children. What rock candy? Fruit candy, lollipops, everything, a wide variety. In the afternoon, it's time for children to set off firecrackers. The younger children set off firecrackers, while the older children set off "Lei Zi". Usually, when they set out in Lei Zi, they will make a "thump, thump" noise in the Woods. This noise is so loud that they can be heard clearly within five miles.
Night is the most lively and extraordinary. In the evening, people chat while eating chicken, duck and fish. The children have been absent-minded for a long time, looking forward to setting off fireworks after dinner. When it gets dark, every family lights lanterns and puts two steamed buns in the pot, in order to have food all year round; Also, no matter how many lights you have at home, as long as they are lights, they are all on. The village is brightly lit, and there is not a household without lights. "Knock, knock, knock" Looking up, there are all kinds of fireworks in the sky with different shapes. The moon and stars are gone, and I watched people set off firecrackers with excitement and joy! At eight o'clock in the evening, every family watches CCTV's Spring Festival Gala on time. Young people pack jiaozi and make ribs to prepare for the reunion dinner tomorrow night.
People got up early and firecrackers exploded. At my grandfather's house, I use firecrackers as an alarm clock. As long as the firecrackers sound, I can't sleep anymore. After getting up, let the younger generation give the children lucky money. The whole village worships their ancestors as a memorial and asks them to bless the family's prosperity and safety in the coming year. Soon, the hall became the most crowded place, because the younger generation was too young to give the older generation lucky money. At the same time,
I also wish the elderly a long life. In the evening, the whole family get together for a reunion dinner. Eggs are essential in the reunion dinner. Eating eggs means that students will go up a flight of stairs, and eating eggs means that they will be round and round all year round.
After the fifteenth day of the first month, people have to go to work and study. Another year has passed and another year has been harvested.
