Spring Festival is an ancient festival in China, and it is also the most important festival in a year. In the thousands of years of historical development in China, there are still some relatively fixed customs and habits handed down to this day. For example, sweeping the dust, pasting Spring Festival couplets, stick grilles, pasting the word "Fu" upside down, painting New Year pictures and observing the old age, and so on.

"Dusting the house on the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month" is recorded in the ancient book "Lv's Spring and Autumn Annals". In addition, dusting has the meaning of "except Chen Buxin".

Spring Festival couplets, also called couplets and peach symbols, express beautiful wishes with dual and exquisite words, which is a unique literary form in China. The custom of posting Spring Festival couplets in the Spring Festival originated in the Song Dynasty. Spring Festival couplets are divided into upper couplet, lower couplet and horizontal batch.

The word "Fu" refers to good fortune and good fortune, and the word "Fu" is posted in the Spring Festival to express a blessing to relatives and friends. However, in order to fully reflect this kind of blessing, people simply paste the word "Fu" upside down, indicating that "Fu has fallen".

Nowadays, it is very common to hang New Year pictures in urban and rural areas during the Spring Festival, and the thick black and colorful New Year pictures have brought prosperity and joy to every household. The earliest collection of New Year pictures in China is the woodcut New Year pictures in the Southern Song Dynasty, which depicts four ancient beauties: Wang Zhaojun, Zhao Feiyan, Ban Ji and Lvzhu.

Here, I will send you another pair of couplets: "Fireworks are shining in the sky, colors are colorful, New Year's Eve is celebrated, the land is full of gold and dragons, and people are buzzing to welcome the auspicious year"!

Chapter 2: Customs of Spring Festival

Spring Festival is the new year of our China lunar calendar, so it is very important for us in China! Therefore, preparation before the Spring Festival is also essential.

It's New Year! It's New Year! Every household is busy posting Spring Festival couplets, shaving their hair and making New Year's Eve dinner ... There are too many things to do, and there are too many "rules"! Some customs are still very strange. In desperation, I went to ask my mother who was posting Spring Festival couplets.

I saw my mother put the word "Fu" upside down. Of course, I know why I put it upside down. It is a custom to put the word "Fu" upside down, which means that "Fu" has fallen (arrived)! But I still asked, "What are the customs and rules for Chinese New Year?" Mother stopped what she was doing and talked to me patiently.

It turns out that there used to be a custom of setting off firecrackers during the Spring Festival, which originated from the story of "Nian Beast". A long time ago, there was a "Nian Beast" who lived in the deep seabed for a long time. On New Year's Eve, he jumped out of the sea and did evil everywhere. One year, an old man drove away the "Nian beast" by shooting guns, wearing red clothes and sticking red Spring Festival couplets, which was calm. Since then, this method has spread. But now it is forbidden to set off fireworks in Guangzhou, so we won't do this activity any more.

New Year's Eve is extremely important for our country. On this evening, our family is going to celebrate the new year and have a reunion dinner.

Eating New Year's Eve is the most lively and enjoyable time for every household in the Spring Festival. On New Year's Eve, a table is filled with rich new year's dishes, and the whole family is reunited, sitting around the table and having a reunion dinner. People not only enjoy the delicious food on the table, but also enjoy the happy atmosphere. There are chickens, geese, roast meat and so on on the table. Generally, there are two things, one is hot pot and the other is fish. The hot pot is steaming, indicating that it is booming; "Fish" and "surplus" are homophonic, which means "more than one year". The last dessert, I wish you a sweet life in the future.

Today, I have gained a lot and learned a lot about Chinese New Year customs, but I feel a little superstitious, but it seems to be a kind of fun. As long as I am happy, why not be superstitious? What's more, it's a traditional custom. I'd rather believe it or not!

Say "Peace for all the years" in your mouth, and use the homonym of "broken" and "old" to turn evil into good, so as to maintain a peaceful and happy atmosphere.

On the first day of the first month of the first month, at the beginning of the New Year, every household sets off firecrackers, which is called "Kaizheng", and also prepares tea, candy and incense in front of the door, which is called "worshipping Zhengzheng".

At the time of "opening", family members should eat some brown sugar noodle soup. Sugar, meaning sweet; Line and surface means longevity, that is, praying for the happiness and longevity of the whole family.

Don't eat porridge on the first day to avoid going out in the rain; Don't take out the garbage outdoors, and avoid "leakage of wealth". In addition, there are taboos such as not collecting debts, not beating and scolding children.

Grandma replied, "We should cook more today, but we can't cook fresh rice on New Year's Day. Because Tujia people rarely eat fish, they have to cook more, which is also called' more than one year'. "

On the afternoon of New Year's Eve, grandpa and dad posted couplets together, and I also went to join in the fun. Look east and look west. Then my father asked me, "Do you know why we put up couplets?" I replied, "I know a little. It's festive." "Right, couplets are to express people's good wishes for good luck in the New Year. Now that we have pasted the couplets, we can't throw things out, not even garbage, and we can't throw things until the second day of the Lunar New Year. This means that the financial circle is at home. " Dad continued.

On the evening of New Year's Eve, the oldest person in the family led the whole family to "worship the mountain to worship their ancestors". Red candles and incense are lit in front of the graves of ancestors, and sacrifices are placed to show the memory of ancestors. This is also a respect for them.
