What is the moral and symbolic significance of gourd?

Hulu is: Fulu homophonic: people put the gourd at the beginning of the new year, double it in the new year, and have a happy wish. Happiness and prosperity. Beginning of spring, our place is called Da Chun. For us, playing spring is a very important festival in a year. Mother shouted in the room; "Get up, get up, it's spring. Why are you still sleeping? Get up quickly. You can't lie in bed in spring! " I heard my father ask, "What time is it? How many points? " What time is it now? It will arrive here in five minutes! "My mother said. Then dad quickly got out of bed and hugged us down or kicked us out of bed. So, in spring, my brothers and sisters, my parents and I are awake and standing to welcome the arrival of spring. Many years later, I think it was farmers' respect for spring and a grand ceremony.

In my memory, beginning of spring is a red gourd, a grandmother and a swallow. ...

Before the spring break, the children are most happy to cut out all kinds of red gourds, make paper gourds as window grilles, and stick them on the doors and windows, while the red gourds will be sewn on the children's coats. The children went out to run and play with the wind, one more beautiful and one more realistic. One by one, the red gourd will float on the children's shoulders or sleeves with their laughter. ...

Who will cut the red gourd? Naturally, it is an older elder in the family, usually a clever grandmother or grandmother when I was a child. I remember that my grandmother was sitting on the kang, first folding the red paper in half, and then holding a tailor's scissors with red cloth in her hand, squinting as if with great effort. She was engrossed in cutting, for reference only.
