The old year passed away this evening, and the next day was replaced by the new year, so it was customarily considered as New Year's Eve. As a festival at the end of the year, New Year's Eve originated from the ancient custom of offering sacrifices to ancestors at the end of the year, and the day after the end of the year is a traditional festival of offering sacrifices to ancestors.

The ancient book says: "Heaven and earth are the foundation of life; Ancestors are the foundation of class. " It means that heaven and earth are the foundation of life, ancestors are the foundation of our human beings, and ancestor worship is the custom of inheriting filial piety.
