Celebrating the New Year is an important event in the lives of people all over Hunan. According to legend, the 24th is the day when Kitchen God went to heaven. It is an old custom to prepare sacrificial fruit for the stove on the evening of 23rd, and ask the kitchen god to say more nice things when playing in the sky. On the 24th, the family got together for the "off-year" and cleaned the stadium on the 28th. The most solemn occasion is the New Year's Eve of the twelfth lunar month, and the wanderers go back to their hometown and have a reunion dinner, which is called New Year's Eve. The New Year's Eve dinner is very rich, with chicken, duck, fish, eggs and vegetables, full of cups and lamps, but many places still retain traditional and unique recipes. Fish is an indispensable dish for every household, which means "more than one year"; Chenzhou people like to eat sour radish and pork liver and intestines, which symbolizes that people should have liver and intestines; Hongjiang area likes to eat spring powder, which is covered with fish, meat, chicken, duck, hoof flower and ginger to show yes-men. Some people also have a bowl of four-season onion mixed with tofu, which means "four distinct seasons, good luck and good luck". On New Year's Eve, there is a folk custom, that is, watching the New Year's Eve, and the whole family sitting around the fire to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. Many places have the habit of burning wood for fire, and take the homonym of "wealth head", hoping for good luck in the New Year.
