The taste of the New Year is the joyful atmosphere of family reunion; it is the glass of wine that the younger generation pays filial piety to their elders around the table; it is the fragrance of the fireworks shining outside and wafting into the nose; the following is the relevant information I have compiled Welcome to read the prose about the New Year in memory. 1 Prose about the New Year in Memory
In my memory, the annual Spring Festival is the best expectation in my childhood.
Because the expectations are so strong, it feels like the four seasons of the year are so long. And now, time is running like water, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.
At that time, the global climate had not yet warmed. Most of the time during the Spring Festival, it is combined with ice and snow, with cold wind and flying snowflakes. In recent years, the most it rains in the mine is rain. How can the sound of the patter of rain be as interesting as the fluttering snowflakes?
What best embodies the "New Year flavor" is to follow the adults to buy New Year's goods. Among them, I have a special liking for beautiful New Year pictures. When I say good-looking, I don’t mean the traditional New Year pictures with images of a house full of gold and jade, or songs and cranes prolonging the year, but the kind of New Year pictures with stories that are only found in rural areas.
I can’t remember whether it was at my grandpa’s house or my grandpa’s house. I saw a set of New Year pictures of "The Night Battle with Ma Chao". There were several large sheets, just like an enlarged comic book. The story was very complete. . I have seen this kind of set of New Year pictures in a hotel. On the left and right walls of the restaurant are the stories of the Twelve Beauties of Jinling from "A Dream of Red Mansions". Each beauty is accompanied by their judgment. The painting may not be exquisite, but the simple colors used were very eye-catching in that era.
The next thing is to post the New Year pictures of the door god. This kind of New Year pictures is hung in almost every house in the countryside. At first, in my eyes, all the door gods looked the same, there was no difference, but the New Year paintings would have different names, such as Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, etc. As I grew older, I learned to identify the generals’ respective identities from the weapons they held and the patterns and colors on their clothes. Learning about these historical figures and folklore from New Year pictures can be said to be the most economical and affordable cultural snack in childhood.
It is no exaggeration to say that every door god is a legend, and every New Year picture has a story.
Food is the most important thing for the people, so the taste of the New Year in their memories is naturally inseparable from delicious food. When buying new year products, the first priority is to buy pork. Don't be picky about fatness or thinness. The more the better in every household. As long as you go to the market, you can see that the pig sellers are skilled in the skills, using both knives and axes, and there is a dull sound of banging. The whole piece of pork has been torn into pieces; except for the ribs and big bones, the rest is already square. The ground was piled up in a big basin, and it looked abundant, so I took it home happily.
Pork was one of the most important meat dishes of that era. Because the utilization of pork has reached zero waste. Lean meat is most needed to make meatballs, make dumplings, and serve with stir-fried vegetables in a variety of ways; fat meat is also indispensable, and must be boiled into lard, which is the main cooking oil at home for a year; large bones are often stewed in a large pot, and many families It is also necessary to pickle some for preservation; even the skin is not wasted. It is fried and eaten crispy or used to make the skin jelly, which is a good side dish for drinking.
When cooking meat at the end of the year, the big black iron pot is covered with a big black lid. Under the lick of the flames, steam gradually escapes from the gaps in the pot lid. The only condiments are some fennel and star anise. When the water is boiled and the meat is boiled, the aroma of the meat is not only lingering around for three days, but even now when I think about it, it is still fresh in my memory and makes people greedy.
For children, the happiest thing is visiting the house to pay New Year greetings. Every time you go to a house, the parents will say a few words and the host will serve you a bowl of snacks. People at that time were very simple. If they could afford it, they would have a bowl of boiled eggs. If not, they would have a bowl of frozen rice soaked in sugar water. The snacks were not expensive, but they were all satisfying.
When I was a child, I was also very good at eating. If I accompanied my mother to three houses in one morning, I could eat three bowls without blinking. Nowadays, a good man does not mention his bravery in the past. Even when faced with a table full of delicacies, I already felt full before I even touched my chopsticks.
A good life has fed our stomachs, and it is becoming increasingly difficult for us to be satisfied. We have long lost the impulse for "taste" and will no longer salivate over the New Year's Eve dinner. Perhaps this is also the reason why people feel that the "New Year's flavor" has become less intense.
Of course, the Chinese people always have a kind of hospitality towards the New Year, and this hospitality will not change due to changes in society. The Spring Festival is always the most important festival for Chinese people.
Writer Feng Jicai said: "The taste of the New Year" is not about material abundance, but about cultural abundance. In other words, the world is progressing, society is progressing, and the "taste of the year" should naturally keep pace with the times. What we lack is not the feelings for "Nian", but the new way and new carrier of "Nian".
How to live a good year embodies all people’s best wishes for life and life. During the New Year, life is idealized and ideals are brought to life. When life and ideals are mixed together, it has the meaning of New Year.
So, the "taste of the New Year" is always there, but the old appearance has quietly changed. People always say that the flavor of the New Year is dull. In fact, it is not the flavor of the New Year that is dull, but the flavor of the people's hearts.
Once upon a time, it was hidden in the New Year’s Eve dinner that my mother made after busy work; in the glass of wine that the younger generation used to honor their elders; and also in the festive couplets posted in every household. Nowadays, it is hidden in the red envelopes on Weibo, WeChat, and QQ; it is hidden in the leisurely mahjong and high-pitched karaoke; and it is also hidden in the greetings of happy new year when we meet... 2 in memory Prose about New Year's Eve
"Children, don't cry. After Laba Festival, pigs will be killed. Children, don't be greedy. After Laba Festival, it will be New Year." Looking forward to, looking forward to, the arrival of the New Year.
In the twelfth lunar month, killing the New Year pig is an exciting thing. The date is set early, and then a skilled pig butcher is hired and relatives and friends are notified. An earthen stove was dug in the courtyard dam and the best firewood was added to the stove. The boiling water was boiling in the cauldron, and the yard was filled with thick smoke and steam. The deafening neighing of the big fat pig spread over the village along with the crackling sound of dry firewood in the stove. Everyone had a smile on their face and was filled with happiness! Yes, after working hard for a year in the wind, rain and scorching sun, the fat body of the pig is undoubtedly a testimony and affirmation of the hard-working people. The host selects the best meat from the pig to entertain his relatives and friends. The blood soup is exuding scalding heat on the table. The sorghum wine has been filled. Relatives and friends are all in the room, playing guessing games, talking and laughing, and drinking until the wine is dry. Fill up the cup, drink one cup after another, until your face turns red! After sending away the relatives, the remaining meat was marinated, chopped into pieces, mixed with condiments, stuffed with sausages, and waited for the coming of the New Year.
This has kicked off the new year. The twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month is the small year and the day for worshiping the stove. I have already gone to the town to buy sacrifices and bake some glutinous rice cakes. After dinner, wash the pots and stoves cleanly, wash your face and hands, and fill out the stove memorial essay. Put the sacrifice on the stove, light a pair of candles, three sticks of incense, burn some paper, and pray devoutly. May the Stove King Bodhisattva say good things to heaven and bring good luck to the lower world! Say more about the good things in the world, and don’t talk about the bad things in the world! Don't expose the shortcomings of the world, but promote the strengths of the world. Make the world happy more, and hurt the world less. May the whole family, old and young, be safe and free from illness and disaster! The stove sacrifice in our place is also called drilling the stove. It is the youngest child in the family who drills the stove. When we were young, the adults always teased us and said that on the day of drilling the stove, we have to crawl into the stove hole and climb out of the chimney. We believed it. Sure enough, he stuck his little head out into the stove, his face covered in black pot ashes, just like the clown who sang Sichuan opera in the commune auditorium at that time, making the adults laugh. At night, the rich offerings on the stove tempted us so much that we couldn't fall asleep. We tossed and turned all night long, thinking about the offerings on the stove. We just looked forward to the dawn, so that our mouths that had been greedy all night could chew the sweet and delicious taste as soon as possible. .
Next is the day to beat "Yangchen". To beat Yangchen, you must read the almanac, pick a clean and auspicious day, and then go to the bamboo forest to cut a slender bamboo pole and use the bamboo leaves on it Bundle it into a simple broom, carefully brush away the cobwebs and dust hanging on the wall, and climb up to the roof to clean up the dust accumulated in the chimney and comb it smoothly, so that the fire in the stove will burn more vigorously in the coming year! The whole family was very busy, polishing the doors, windows, furniture, and utensils! In addition to cleaning the house, the mud accumulated in the gutters also needs to be combed out with a hoe! In fact, when we wipe the appearance of the environment and decoration, we must also cleanse our hearts. We must also wash away our thoughts of greed, evil desires, killing, lying, etc., so that our hearts can be purer! Luck will also follow you.
The footsteps of the New Year are getting closer and closer, and wandering wanderers have rushed back to their hometowns from far away foreign lands! There are more people going to the market, the town has become lively and noisy, and people carrying the New Year's goods gathered on their backs are crowded among the crowds of people. You must buy a good cigarette, the best sorghum wine, the loudest firecrackers, snacks for the children, new clothes, everything is ready, just waiting and looking forward to the arrival of the New Year!
Today is New Year’s Eve, the end of the year. The adults got up early, took out the roosters in the cage, and sharpened their kitchen knives. Killing chickens on New Year’s Eve is also about auspiciousness! You can't last up the damage, it's the most auspicious to draw blood with one blow. Bright red chicken blood dripped into the small bowl and onto the paper used for sacrifice. The steamer in the pot is steaming, squeezing out from the cracks in the tiles, fragrant the air, the bellows next to the stove is blowing air, the dishes are rolling in the iron pot, and the bacon bones on the chopping board are The knife made a snapping sound, and the yard was filled with fragrance! This is the long-awaited taste, my mother’s taste! It’s even more of an auspicious New Year flavor! The New Year's Eve sacrifices have been placed on the table, pour the wine into the cup, solemnly light the incense, candles and money paper, and then light the firecrackers hanging on the branches in the yard. The firecrackers explode with a habit of "cracking" in succession, with the momentum of one go. ! Crimson confetti is flying all over the sky like wintersweet in the wind! The sound continued to spread over the village. The sound of firecrackers drives away bad luck and welcomes auspicious New Year! The family stood solemnly under the shrine, kowtowed devoutly to their ancestors in the underworld, and prayed for the safety and prosperity of the family! Bless your children’s academic progress! Bless the elderly with health and longevity! After the sacrifice was completed, the wine was respectfully sprinkled on the paper, and the flames were "sizzling" upwards in the room. After the paper was burned, it was filled with a clean dustpan and sprinkled on the clean soil.
Yes, it’s time to have the New Year’s Eve dinner, and the whole family is sitting around the table. The table is filled with the most sumptuous dishes all year round, and the bowls are filled with the best wine! Of course, fish is indispensable in the family reunion dinner, which is the hope of our fathers that they will have more than enough every year and have a happy ending! Don't say unlucky words during the reunion dinner, don't say you won't eat when you're full, and don't drop your chopsticks on the ground if a child accidentally breaks the bowl. Adults will quickly say "Peace every year"! Eat and drink to your heart's content. The reunion dinner should take a long time and be eaten slowly, so there is plenty of time. During the New Year, all that’s left is eating. After the meal is over, it’s time to thank the fruit trees that have created wealth for us. Scoop out some soup and rice, and use a knife to cut a slit on the trunk. This is to feed the fruit trees with New Year’s dinner. “Feed some rice, make a load, feed some soup, and the fruits The warehouse is full!"
We stood on tiptoe and put red Spring Festival couplets on the door frame, hung up red lanterns, filled the water tank, and cleaned the yard. The soaked glutinous rice has been scooped into the grinder, just like the small river in front of the house, meandering in the grinder, falling drop by drop into the pocket like milk, slowly condensing, and is as white as snow! On New Year's Eve, thousands of houses are lit up with lights, and the gala on black and white TV is full of singing and dancing! There is an old saying that if you wash your feet at thirty, you will be early everywhere. Therefore, the cleaner you wash your feet on New Year’s Eve, the better. It will bring good luck and good luck in the coming year. It is said that you can encounter any restaurant that eats meat.
Meat was a luxury item in that era, so I tried my best to wash my feet to make them whiter! Wash away the dust of the past year, wash away the fatigue of the past year, wash away the troubles in life, wash away the misfortune in the world, wash away all the sorrow! It is necessary to stay up late on New Year's Eve. Staying up late is a nostalgic feeling for the passing years, and it also expresses good hope for the coming New Year. Don’t extinguish the fire in the kitchen stove. Put a piece of unburned charcoal in the stove to keep the fire alive and continuous!
The New Year’s bell is ringing, fireworks and firecrackers are blasting! The sky on New Year's Eve is so brilliant that it's hard to tell where the fireworks are and where the stars are. The devout old man lights incense, candles and money paper in front of the gate, bows down and prays for God's blessing, wishing for good weather in the new year and peace for the country and the people! The New Year's night sky in the countryside is even more joyful, and the sound of firecrackers continues until dawn.
The adults had already gotten up as soon as the sky turned white. The hard-working mother filled the pot with water and put down the round and big glutinous rice balls made on New Year's Eve. On the morning of the first day of junior high school, there are many taboos. In order to prevent the children from talking nonsense, the adults prepared candies in advance and put them in the mouths of the children who were talking nonsense. Putting sugar in your mouth only makes it sweet! Putting on the new clothes, putting the steaming glutinous rice balls in the bowl into your mouth, the glutinous rice balls, the fragrance, and the sweetness flow from the tip of the tongue to the stomach. I can't forget it for a long time! The New Year's glutinous rice balls symbolize reunion, harmony and happiness! You should also pay attention to the number of glutinous rice balls you eat. Glutinous rice balls symbolize wealth and are ingots, so you must eat them to make money in all seasons. Six or six will make you rich, and eight or eight will make you rich. Everything is perfect. If you eat twelve, you will get rich every month!
New Year’s Day, a new year, a new starting point! Everything is updated! After breakfast, I kowtowed to my parents and paid New Year's greetings, and received the New Year's money. We went to the street in twos and threes and bought firecrackers and put them in our pockets. Stick it on the pile of cow dung, light it with incense candles from a distance, cover your ears with your hands and hide away. The firecrackers blasted the cow dung into bloom like a wisteria flower wrapped around the fence. The warm sunshine of early spring filled the yard, reflecting the girl's face, and her braid tied with a red headband fluttered in the New Year's air. look! The girls jumped on the rope, the women cracked melon seeds and played housework, the men were playing long cards, and the old people smoked cigarettes... After a while, the dragon lantern performer from the village came, and people gathered around. A circle quickly formed. People twist their waists to the crisp, high and cheerful sound of the suona. The atmosphere of the New Year is as strong as strong wine, the mood is even higher, and laughter continues to fill our small village...
大The floor cannot be swept on the first day of the new year. The garbage on the ground is also wealth and cannot be swept away. Hide the kitchen knives and eat yesterday’s leftovers for lunch. The chicken head and chicken feet served during the reunion are retained. The chicken head is a symbol of power, a leader and a person of responsibility, so the chicken head is reserved for the elderly. Chicken feet are a moneymaker, so the mainstay of the family must eat them on the first day of the New Year. Eating chicken feet expresses the hope of the whole family, hoping to find more money, create more wealth, and live a better life in the new year!
Tangyuan on the first grade of junior high school and noodles on the second grade of junior high school. Noodles symbolize longevity, long history, and longing. The second day of the Lunar New Year is also the day when a married girl returns to her parents' home. From this day on, she begins to visit relatives. At the end of the year, from sowing to harvest, after a busy and hard year, it’s time to go back to my parents’ home. As early as the twelfth lunar month, my daughter went to the town to buy leaf cigarettes that her old father liked to smoke, a few kilograms of the best bottled wine, and some candies for her mother. With her honest husband, the eldest child in hand, and Erya on her back, we set off early. There is an endless stream of relatives visiting during the New Year on the road, coming and going. When I walked to the door of my parents' house, my parents' black guard dog was already running towards me wagging its tail, jumping happily to welcome the arrival of my daughter and uncle! The natal mother left the best things from the pig to entertain her daughter and son-in-law. Grandma loves her grandson very much. She quietly took out a large handful of candies from the cabinet and stuffed them into the pocket of her crying grandson. Before leaving, he took out the change hidden in the handkerchief from the inner pocket, opened it layer by layer, took out a few pieces and sent them to his grandson. It wasn't until he arrived at the west entrance of the village that he turned around and left with tears in his eyes.
After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, businessmen slowly open their shops, choose an auspicious time, and light firecrackers in front of their shops, hoping that in the new year, business will be as prosperous as exploding scraps of paper. Fire is rising one after another! The relatives have left, and spring has begun. The hard-working farmers couldn't sit still and couldn't rely on their leisure. They picked up their hoes one after another, went down to the ground to shovel piles of turf, and then poured layers of manure on them, which was necessary for spring plowing. There is a saying that you only see people celebrating the New Year, but not farming. Yes, if you want to have a prosperous year, you must use hard-working hands to create and fight!
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Chinese New Year. Although people have gone to the fields one after another, they still have to stop what they are doing on this day and visit the village, chat and play cards. The fifteenth moon has already risen from the east, hanging round on the bare green forest in the east of the village, shining on the peaceful village. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is a local custom in our country that is to steal green tea, which is also called stealing green tea. Under the dim moonlight, in the quiet and quiet night, young people in small groups quietly sneak into other people's vegetable gardens, pulling out a few garlic seedlings or pulling out a few green vegetables. Then take advantage of the moonlight and quietly go home to share the "fruits of your labor." Send off the last day of the New Year with laughter. It is said that you should not tear off the green, otherwise it will be unlucky. So if you observe it during the day beforehand, you will be more comfortable then. The person who was stolen is not angry but happy, which means that his vegetables are only "stealed" if they grow well, and they are willing to "patronize" them. There will definitely be a bumper harvest in the coming year. Those who go to steal youth are also happy and hope for good luck in the new year! "Steal" fresh vegetables home, put them into the pot while the vegetables are fresh and tender, serve them steamingly on the table, fill a bowl of wine with them, and enjoy the unique taste under the moonlight, the delicate fragrance of the vegetables. Between the thrill of "stealing" and the simple hope of the farmers!
Even though the moon has hung over the cherry trees in the yard, people gathered on the dam left by the agricultural cooperative in the village are still making noise. The children are still playing and chasing each other, skipping ropes, singing songs, the games are still going on. The old man is wrapped in leaf cigarettes and sucking them in his mouth, and the fireworks around his mouth are flickering like the sky. Twinkling like stars. As time goes by, people live longer, and spring fills the universe with blessings. Day after day, another year has passed before you know it, look! The children have grown taller, but this group of old people have added a few horizontal grooves and a wisp of white hair. Time flies by, and they become older without knowing it.
The lively New Year has passed, and spring has returned to the earth. It’s time to be busy again. Every effort is rewarded. I hope this year will be better than last year!
