Development of the Spring Festival

On New Year's Day, my mother would take me, my sister, and my nephew to my second uncle's house to celebrate the Spring Festival. I was happy at the thought that I could set off firecrackers with my great-uncle and the others on New Year's Day. When I arrived at my second uncle's house, I saw my aunt preparing the New Year's Eve dinner, and my mom and my sister took my nephew outside to play, while I went to buy fireworks with my great-uncle.

Big uncle specially drove me to a variety of fireworks store, we bought a 180 loud fireworks, a lot of falling guns, but also bought a big fireworks like a gun, the whole box!

After the reunion dinner in the evening, my great-uncle and I came to the door of our house to prepare for the fireworks. We are ready to start from the small fireworks. I first found a lighter from my second uncle's computer desk drawer, then took out the fireworks like a gun from the big box, then I held the fireworks in my left hand and the lighter in my right hand, then pressed the lighter button and slowly approached the fireworks.

As soon as I put it out, I saw that the colorful and gorgeous fireworks bloomed in the night sky like a beautiful flower, but disappeared without a trace in an instant, I was surprised and scared. I was afraid that the fireworks would hurt my hands, but seeing the beautiful fireworks in the sky gave me more surprises.
