This is a local custom, and it is also a superstitious statement without any scientific basis. In order to welcome the arrival of the Spring Festival, many places in China have the custom of frying new year's goods. Especially in Henan, it is a very important link to fry New Year's goods. There is also a local custom that you must never talk when frying New Year's goods.
Fried meatballs, fried tomato boxes, fried lotus root boxes ..... each dish is mouth-watering, and it also adds a new year flavor to this family, making it feel more and more lively. However, local people are not allowed to talk when frying new year's goods. If some children who are not sensible say a few words, they may be reprimanded. Young people don't understand why, and the elders at home will always explain that if they talk indiscriminately, the oil in the pot will be reduced. Moreover, it is said that on the day of frying new year's goods, the immortals in the sky will taste delicious food in every household. If children accidentally say something wrong, they will anger the immortals, and the auspicious of this family will be taken away.
In fact, these are just superstitious statements, and there is no scientific basis. After all, there are many customs in China that are related to superstition. However, it is also good not to talk when frying new year's goods. After all, it can be more hygienic. You can't eat the fried new year's goods first, but you must worship the gods and gods first. This has something to do with the culture of our country. We must know that for thousands of years, the people have been getting food from the land, praying for good weather every year, and even the emperor will subtract the blessing on a specific day.
since we depend on the weather to eat, we should of course thank nature for its gifts first. We should not eat the prepared things first, but sacrifice them first. Although we know that these customs are related to Otawa's superstition, the traditions of thousands of years are not so easy to be erased, not to mention the simplicity and nature of ordinary people, as well as the awe and gratitude for heaven and earth. It is precisely because of these customs that we have more flavor of the New Year.
