1, Christmas Eve is Christmas Eve, Christmas Day is 65438+February 25th, and Christmas Eve is 65438+February 24th evening. Sending apples to Christmas Eve is precisely because the "apple" of apples is homophonic with the "ping" of peace.

2, China people pay more attention to homophonic, for example, on the wedding night, peanuts, red dates and lotus seeds are placed under the quilt, which means "early (jujube) gives birth to your son." Apple's "Ping" is homophonic with the "Ping" of peace, which is the auspicious meaning of China's "Apple Peace". So there is a custom of sending apples on Christmas Eve. Those who send apples on behalf of others wish those who receive the fruits of peace a safe and secure New Year.
