Manchu

Manchu people need stick grilles, couplets and the word "God" to celebrate the Spring Festival. This year, the whole family will buy jiaozi, jiaozi should pay attention to wrinkles, and jiaozi, the monk's head, can't be pinched off, for fear that he will be "bald" all his life. Jiaozi needs rows of bags, which symbolizes the wealth of the new year extending in all directions. Jiaozi can't be placed in a circle, for fear that there is no way to live.

Bai (ba)

Bai people began to worship each other and give gifts to each other on New Year's Eve. After midnight, young men and women competed for water to show their diligence. In the morning, the whole family drank sugar water soaked with rice fragrance, wishing the days were sweeter than honey. After breakfast, the children, led by adults, went to their relatives and friends' homes to pay New Year greetings to their elders. Playing dragon lanterns, dancing lions and beating the overlord whip are essential activities in the festival.

Mongolian nationality

The Mongolians always advocate white, so they call the first month of the lunar calendar "Bai Yue" and the Spring Festival in China "White Festival". Preparations for the Mongolian New Year began on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month. Besides cleaning, bathing and arranging yurts, people should also put on new clothes, red tassels and new saddles. Give the whole cow and sheep with Hada to their closest relatives and friends. Eat "hand-grabbed meat" on New Year's Eve to show family reunion. In the early morning of the first day of the first month, we first propose a toast to our elders and then propose a toast to our peers. Friends and relatives exchange Hada, congratulations on your good luck in the new year. On the first day, you must pay New Year greetings to your elders in the morning.
