The outline of the customs in my hometown is as follows:

Example 1:

Qingming symbolizes the beginning of spring. On the Qingming Festival, people go outing, visit tombs, and eat the Qingming tree, a unique delicacy of the Qingming Festival. Making a Qingming tree seems simple, but is actually complicated. Green is the key to making a Qingming tree. There are many greens on the roadside across the river from my grandma’s house. This inconspicuous wild vegetable is the key to dyeing Qingming japonica rice.

A few days before Qingming Festival, grandma will pick a big bucket of greens, cut off the tender parts, and grind them into powder. Grandma told me: This kind of grass looks ordinary and is difficult to spot. As long as there is no white fine hair on it, it must be fake.

Example 2:

On the Spring Festival day, the sound of firecrackers was endless. Every family posted red couplets on the door, hung up red lanterns, and had a reunion dinner. The same is true for my family. . On New Year's Eve, towards the evening, our family started to get busy. My father is responsible for posting couplets, my mother is responsible for taking care of my younger brother, my grandfather is responsible for washing vegetables, and I am responsible for putting together lanterns.

I took out the two packages of flat red lanterns and opened them. A bunch of scattered lantern parts fell out. I opened the instruction manual and began the long process of putting it together. Grandma started cooking, and the bursts of aroma came to me, which made me want to take a bite. After eating the food cooked by grandma, I was thinking about making lanterns. The sun was quite bright at that time. I wiped off the big beads of sweat. After putting one lantern together, I started another one.

Example 3:

Child, kid, don’t be greedy. It’s the New Year after Laba. I hummed nursery rhymes and helped grandma clean the house. In the brand-new home, we The preparation of new year's goods before the Spring Festival has begun again. Pickled salted food, fish waiting to be slaughtered, hairy crabs tied with five stripes; fragrant roasted seeds and nuts, tempting candies, and a full range of tobacco and alcoholic beverages gradually filled the storage room, and the flavor of the New Year slowly rose.

What makes people feel the Chinese New Year atmosphere the most is making dumplings. The grandma next door heard that our family wanted steamed buns the day before, so she specially came to help today, one person making the stuffing and the other kneading the dough. Those who mix the stuffing use chopsticks to stir the minced meat and vegetables, so that they are fully integrated and create a collision of flavors; those who knead the dough press the dough with the heels of their palms to fully display the elasticity of the glutinous rice flour. The flour dyes the sleeves white, floats to the forehead, and fills the air. Permeated with the unique fragrance of cereals.
