Spring Festival prose

1, Chinese New Year is a taste, a complex, a tradition and a culture. It has gone through thousands of years, walking on the streets in rural areas and among the high-rise buildings in cities. As long as your blood is full of the feelings of the Chinese nation, you will never be able to stop the sultry taste of that year.

When I was a child, every New Year's Eve, the family always liked to sit around the table and talk while eating. The firecrackers became less and less, and my eyes began to blur. At this time, my father often used the monster "Nian" to scare me. Say "nian" is actually a fierce, fierce and powerful beast, living in the wilderness. It eats all kinds of birds and animals, from sleepy to alive. If you blink, you may bite your head off. This worked wonders. I woke up at once and opened my eyes wide. From then on, I learned the legend of "Nian" and felt awe.

I spent 22 Chinese New Year in the countryside, and my understanding of that year in my soul is all memories of that time. Buy firecrackers, send kitchen gods, stick to the door, worship ancestors, send Vulcan gods, catch temple fairs, listen to big plays, pay New Year's greetings, eat all kinds of New Year's Eve dinners, and visit relatives and friends? These lifelike scenes are like the branches of the big tree "Nian", which really fascinates people. In short, the rural flavor is so strong that people can't turn away, and people enjoy it and have a profound experience.

4, the city also has a taste of the year, just like the clouds flying in the sky, which come and go lightly and make people not have much fun. There was no door-to-door, no greeting, and the streets were empty. Only the cold wind mixed with the smell of gunpowder from the countryside came out of the alley, which was very leisurely and ethereal. Of course, there are also New Year's Eve dinners, and there are scattered people in the park, but these are not the same as the bustling temple fairs and the mighty New Year greetings.

However, whether in rural or urban areas, there is always the custom of putting up doors. This custom can be traced back to the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It is said that Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong, suffered from a strange disease. He often heard amityville horror in his dreams, which made him sleepless at night and anxious. Qin and Weichi Gong, generals, all dressed up, stood at the substation doors on both sides. This method really worked, and Li Shimin soon recovered from a serious illness. In order to thank the two generals, he drew pictures and posted them on both sides of the palace gate. Since then, folk "door-sticking gods" have become popular. This is just a legend, but it can well express people's good wishes to ward off evil spirits and eliminate disasters and welcome good luck.

6, Spring Festival couplets, probably originated in Fu Tao, posting Spring Festival couplets is of course also to express a festive meaning. According to legend, Meng Chang, a great master of the later Shu Dynasty, once wrote "Spring Festival in Qing Yu, Spring Festival in Changchun", which can be regarded as the earliest Spring Festival couplets in China. On New Year's Day, people are beaming and every household sticks Spring Festival couplets. This beautiful tradition continues to this day.

7. Speaking of Spring Festival couplets, there are many anecdotes. Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher living in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, was persuaded by his wife to write a couplet "Spring Breeze, Spring Rain, Spring Scene, New Year, New Year Scene" and put it outside the door. He was taken away in less than half a cup of tea. He had to rewrite "Ti Ying Beichen, the southern suburb of Yu Yan", but he still failed to keep it. This time, his wife was in a hurry, and Wang Xizhi used his quick wits to write, "It never rains but it pours." No one unveiled such an unlucky couplet. On the first day of the next day, he added three words to the upper and lower couplets, which became "Happiness is never in pairs, but it never rained alone last night." This is really amazing.

8. China is a vast country, and the custom of celebrating the New Year in different regions is of course different. Lao She recalled that children in Beijing like three things, one is to buy vegetables, the other is to buy firecrackers, and the third is to buy gadgets like kites. I'm afraid children in other places can only watch and sigh. When he arrived in Henan, Yan Lianke once said in his article that it was a wonder to walk out of the gifts and meat of relatives and hang them in the air. In Zhejiang, we want to eat sauced meat, dried fish and fragrant boiled taro (Zhang Kangkang's hometown is far away), while in Fujian, we want to make white sugar rice cakes, brown sugar rice cakes, fried dates and five sausages (New Year's Eve)? Although there are different winds in five miles and different customs in ten miles, the taste of the year has not changed after all, which can make people have a long aftertaste.

9. Chinese New Year is still an understanding of life. Wandering in a foreign land, there are always worries and worries lingering in my heart every New Year. This homesickness is constantly being cut and confused, which is a special taste. In the Tang Dynasty, Gao Shi wrote a poem "Walking at Night", in which he wrote: "The hotel stays awake on a cold night, and the guest's heart turns to sorrow. Tonight, my hometown is a thousand miles away, and the Ming Dynasty is another year. " The word "sorrow" vividly expresses the poet's yearning for his hometown and relatives, which is certainly not comparable to Wang Anshi's poem "January Day". Su Shi was relegated to Huizhou by Song Zhezong, where he spent the first Spring Festival in his life and wrote a poem to record his sentimental feelings. He said, "The year before last, I served Wang Qi, and there were thousands of lights at the door. The tooth flag wears the night market, and the iron horse rings spring ice. This year, above the rivers and seas, the cloud room sent monks into the mountains. I will also raise the fire and see the layer in the pine. " Compared with the past and the present, one glory and one loss, one glory and one glory and one decline, and the feelings of life are all wandering alone in the river and sea.

10, how to celebrate the New Year is purely a state of mind and cannot be forced at all. Qian Zhongshu spent the New Year, declined visitors and concentrated on reading; Feng Jicai's Chinese New Year, "behind closed doors", exclusive dialogue with pen and ink, isn't this all a feeling? You can also be alone with your family and enjoy your family. You can also travel around the world and roam the world; Can I cook tea and read books around the stove at night? As long as you feel happy.

1 1, "One-year-old firecrackers ring", in fact, for us, the festival is both a shallow scratch and a heavy stroke. After the year of no doubt, the years become short and there is no rhythm. If you are not careful, the flowing days will slip through your fingers. Seize the moment, cherish time like gold, and do more things beneficial to others, which is a wise choice. In fact, it should be said that it is valuable and meaningful to have such feelings in the thick flavor of the year.

12, Chinese New Year is a kind of taste, homesickness, warmth, happiness, culture and a love song full of deep thoughts. As long as you are a child of China, no matter where you are, you can't escape the sultry atmosphere of that year.
