The so-called annual rules are annual rules or annual rules. It takes the "social environment" of the land god as the unit and makes an annual rule on a fixed day of the year. In Shi Lan, there are village rules and regulations from the seventh day of the first month to December, but mainly in February of the first month. Many villages have two or even three or four chronologies, such as Shi Lan Village in Shi Lan Town and Gu Village in Dun, with four chronologies.
In the past, most of the annual ceremonies were to worship the gods and dance with lions during the day, to perform a big play or puppet show or a movie at night, to set off firecrackers and fireworks, and to invite relatives and friends to eat and drink. Wuchuan's annual festivals are more colorful and lively. They not only put up doorplates and decorated with lanterns at the entrance of the village, but also the village bosses donated 100,000 yuan and millions to invite top domestic players to play basketball, invited famous singers and Cantonese opera troupes or celebrities to perform, invited mobile guards of honor to patrol the village or invited high-stakes lion dance teams. This small village attracts friends and relatives from all directions and is very lively. It was really a "New Year's Day". Year-on-year samples even make prices soar, and the market appears impatient and active, forming a unique year-on-year sample economy. Chronology of Shi Lan is everywhere, with different times. On the right are some village chronologies and some special chronology samples. The typical annual regulations are wandering spirits, burning firearms, offering cups, eating annual regulations, singing big plays, etc. It is a large-scale folk activity with the purpose of praying for disaster relief, human and animal safety and prosperity. During the Chinese New Year, every household holds a big banquet and warmly treats relatives and friends with tea, rice, wine and vegetables, which is full of unique customs and strong local flavor.
New Year's Eve: In addition to the festive activities seen in "Watching New Year's Eve", "Eating New Year's Eve" (inviting relatives and friends to eat New Year's Eve) is even more famous. Make an annual rule, a village makes an annual rule, and people in neighboring villages are not allowed to watch the fun or entertain relatives and friends, so "making an annual rule" is also called "eating an annual rule". In the sixties and seventies of last century, the annual regulations were once regarded as the "four olds" and were once interrupted, but the content of "eating" in the annual regulations still existed.
Salute to the gods: Bodhisattva leaves the temple and goes to the villages in the "social environment". Each village is not allowed to have one or more places for "offering cups", which is the highlight of "opening the year". Several tables of the Eight Immortals were placed on each "plot", and the villagers picked out the best fruits, cakes and sweets from home, put them in pots and put them on the tables of the Eight Immortals for the Bodhisattva to "enjoy". In the old days, a Taoist priest threw a "cup ratio" (cut a log into two pieces and threw it on the ground when asking God, with two sections called Yang ratio, two sections called Yin ratio and one section called Sheng ratio). Fireworks and firecrackers were set off at the ceremony, and there was a lion dance performance. At noon on New Year's Day, there are also worship and "posing". The form of "sacrifice" is the same as "sacrifice", but the difference is that the sacrifice is changed from fruit, cake and sugar to "three animals" (chicken, pork and fish).
Boating: The schedule for boating is 8:00- 10 on New Year's Eve. People patrol the village with statues and paper boats, or park on the land. Every family takes some chicken feathers, messy hair, hemp seeds and bean seeds (symbolizing measles and acne) from home and puts them in paper boats. Operators go to the fork in the road or the river outside the village to burn (that is, lion dance: there is a magical legend about the custom of lion dance. It is said that there were no lions in ancient China. It is not clear whether it was the Qin Dynasty or the Han Dynasty. Countries in the western region have bad relations with China. One year, Fan Wang sent an emissary to send a lion to our country, demanding to tame the lion as a symbol of friendship, and agreed to come and watch the tame lion show on the birthday of our emperor the next year. Who knows that the lion is difficult to tame, but after half a year, he escaped from the iron prison and killed several beautiful women. Fortunately, the two animal trainers were skilled in martial arts and hacked the lion to death with three or two knives. This is a great disaster for the right wing. What should the emperor show to the envoys of various countries on his birthday? Maybe there will be another war between the two countries. Fortunately, these two animal trainers are clever. On the birthday of the emperor, they put on lion skins and performed on the stage, jumping around, swinging from side to side, waking up and sleeping, lifelike, just like real lions, and the envoys of various countries could not see any flaws. Since then, the custom of lion dance has emerged, and people like to perform lion dance on holidays.
Grab the gun head: In many villages, it is customary to grab the gun head after dinner. The "spear head" is the paper ball that falls after the fireworks are launched. The spear heads are "Fu Bao", "Pig Bao", "Tianding Bao" and "Vegetable Bao". According to legend, whoever found the spear head in those days made a fortune. Whoever finds a cannon will return it the next year. If you find a pig cannon, you will get a pig every two years. If you find a vegetable cannon, you will get a table of dining tables the next year. The scene of mandatory planning spear head is very lively. When the cannon burned, the rocket shot into the sky. With the crackling sound, the rocket exploded in the sky, and colorful colored balls danced in the air, which was very beautiful. The ultimatum "sou" shot a spear head from the gun chamber, drew a beautiful arc in the air and fell down. People are scrambling to grab it.
Put on a big show: Some villages also put on puppet shows. The puppet show is called "ghost play" and "ghost play". There are three kinds of puppet shows in Wuchuan: one is a one-man puppet show, which is popular in Changqi, Shallow Water and Shi Lan; The other is a small class puppet, which is popular in the towns in the southwest of Wuchuan, singing Wuchuan folk songs; And the other is a puppet in big class, also called Cantonese Opera Puppet, singing Cantonese Opera. Some large classes, such as matinee puppet shows and evening performances, are also called yin-yang classes. Puppets in small classes and big classes have basically disappeared, and there are a few single puppet classes, most of which are old artists in their sixties and seventies. Put on a big show. Wu has always called Cantonese opera "a play". Drama has a broad mass base in Wuchuan. In the 1960s and 1970s, almost every village had a troupe. After the reform and opening up, almost every village will stage a big drama every year. At the end of each year, the government organizes a booking party for the spring class of Cantonese Opera, and the performance agents from Guangdong and Guangxi Cantonese Opera Troupes fill the venue. In some wealthy villages, with a venue of nearly 100,000 yuan, the Guangdong Opera Troupe can perform for ten consecutive nights. In some villages, two Cantonese opera troupes were invited to perform for several nights at the same time. Although Wuchuan's ancient festival activities are full of superstition, they also have positive significance that cannot be ignored. It not only connects family ties and friendship, adds festive atmosphere and promotes local traditional culture, but also stimulates the growth of exaggerated consumption and promotes economic development. This is a traditional custom. In the process of inheritance and development, chronology not only combines the contents of healthy progress, but also permeates many low-level declining things, which not only enlivens cultural exchanges, but also breeds unhealthy trends of feudal superstition, extravagance and corruption, and waste of comparison-some people make face-saving projects through chronology; In some places, temples and luxurious superstitious halls are built with great fanfare. Are these outstanding problems allowed to appear naturally? Or guide it to make it develop healthily? Folk culture is a subtle social education and an effective warning to the people. Some experts in folklore believe: "The precedent is to let people automatically experience the same activities in a concentrated time period, and experience the same value in the same ceremony with the help of the power of customs, so that a common society will allow people to continue harmoniously. This is the most economical and effective reproduction function of traditional festivals. " Under the political system of feudal history, folk festivals and ceremonies were allowed, and government officials enthusiastically participated in various festivals. The purpose is to use the folk customs of festivals to inspire people, realize the social fashion of unity and friendship, and promote the construction of national spiritual civilization. So, how should we view the chronology today when the new society is in charge of spiritual civilization construction? First of all, as a big culture, the annual statute contains huge and rich cultural wealth, and the government should do a good job of excavation and protection to extract material and spiritual wealth from it. Secondly, chronology, as a traditional folk custom, can only guide, not stop. The government should distinguish the contents of worship of gods and religious beliefs from a scientific point of view, and should not always label them as "feudal superstitions", but should fully consider their influence on social life. Thirdly, as a carrier, chronology can become a channel for advanced culture to occupy rural areas. The government should strengthen correct guidance, resist bad atmosphere, constantly enrich content and form, and improve the cultural taste of annual regulations; It is necessary to organize the creation of spiritual food popular with the masses, rehearse various forms of entertainment programs for the masses, let new cultures and new ideas flourish in rural areas, and make the New Year a cultural festival for farmers in the new period.
When residents in big cities find traditional festivals more and more boring, the traditional customs of the Han nationality in Wuchuan's hometown can still be well preserved, and the traditional culture in Wuchuan's hometown has not disappeared in today's tide of globalization. On the contrary, with the changes of the times and the continuous improvement of productivity, the cultural environment has been constantly changing, and the contents and functions of festivals in Wuchuan New Year are also constantly changing. The prosperity of cultural and sports activities in Wuchuan every year is an urgent need for psychological needs after the survival needs are met.
Wuchuan Spring Festival is a rare custom in Guangdong Province and even in China. It attracts more and more overseas people with its unique local characteristics and traditional customs, and some folklore experts and scholars are also interested in it. Moreover, Wuchuan area is rich in natural tourism resources because of its superior geographical location, which is close to mountains and seas.

Especially with the progress of the times and the development of the economy, the Chronicle of Wuchuan has been constantly developing and innovating, and its existence has also been given new significance:
1, a bridge of communication. Nowadays, social networks and communication are developed, but people's work pressure has also increased, reducing the time to go home. It is difficult for many people to get together at the same time, and there is also a lack of opportunities to face relatives and friends. Here, people who are away from home don't have to go home for the New Year, but they have to go home for reunion no matter how far away they are. Moreover, it is the Wuchuan annual line. On New Year's Day, every household is beaming, and people from neighboring towns and villages will come from all directions to watch the excitement. Friends, relatives and friends will also come. The host family will be hospitable, invite tea and hold a banquet, and the children will benefit. Wu Chuannian played a very good role in communication. This is really fun and fun! It adds a lot of festive atmosphere to spring.
2. Promote economic development. During the Spring Festival in Wuchuan, the consumption of villages and towns in Wuchuan increased sharply. The vegetable market, shops and roads are full of new year's goods, which is dazzling. The survey results show that the supply of fruit candy and biscuits will increase significantly, with an increase of more than 40%; The rise of new dishes has gradually become a bright spot in the economy, stimulating the growth of consumption, stimulating the demand for related items, and directly increasing the income of vegetable farmers, with an increase of about15%; The consumption proportion of holiday products such as home appliances, fireworks and colored lights has also increased greatly, which will increase by 20 percentage points compared with other months; Annual entertainment performances (such as lion dance, dragon dance, floating color, Cantonese opera, etc. ) also has great market potential. According to the statistical analysis of relevant people, Wuchuan's economy accounts for about a quarter of the rural market economy. Wuchuan is a tourist city, and chronology is a major cultural feature of Wuchuan area. In the past, spiritual wealth has produced considerable material value and is accelerating its pace, affecting the mode of economic and social development. After experiencing the stage of supporting literature with literature, setting up a stage with culture and singing opera economically, culture began to set up a stage for itself and sing opera by itself, and integrated into the field of economic and social development. The more culture and economy are integrated, the greater the potential of releasing cultural productivity. Integrating cultural industry into service industry, especially tourism, is a new bright spot of economic growth.
3. Conducive to the preservation and development of traditional culture. Time has just given these programs room for development, and these wonderful folk art performances have also enriched the spiritual life of farmers.
4. Become a new culture of the community. With the development of economy and culture, Wuchuan's village rules and regulations have also changed with the times. They not only set off fireworks, but also held garden activities, fitness dances and other prize-winning competitions, such as singing, sports, chess and cards. These activities are lively and interesting, and the performances are easy to understand, which has become a new bright spot of healthy community customs and culture and rural culture. Culture is the symbol of a regional civilization and the driving force of social development. Only when a city, a community, spiritual culture and economic culture develop at the same time can the region last long and modern culture prosper.
5. Promote the harmonious development of cities. The content of folk culture reflects and shows the common psychology, thinking habits and life of the nation, standardizes people's value orientation, produces great national cohesion and has the value of social harmony. As a local custom culture, Chronicle of Wuchuan shows not only an artistic style, but also a harmonious humanistic spirit.
