Go home and wash "calamus water" for the New Year.

I am a Hakka in the Mid-Levels. My hometown takes a bath with "Acorus gramineus" and a little "old people's roots and vines" every New Year's Eve.

This long-standing custom and legend has been preserved to this day, which can wash away the bad luck of one year and usher in the good luck of the next year.

Acorus gramineus is an aquatic plant that grows in crevices by streams, while the roots and vines of the elderly grow in mountains or bamboo forests, both of which are herbs.

When I was a child, at the end of the twelfth lunar month, my friends and I would happily run to the stream to pull out Acorus gramineus. Just for New Year's Eve, I can bathe in the fragrance of Chinese herbal medicine, bathe in Acorus gramineus, put on my new clothes early, and happily prepare for a happy and peaceful peace year.

In a few days, it will be New Year's Eve. At this time, at the door of the hometown people, you can see the grass of Acorus gramineus collected one by one, ready to stay in the pot and take a bath on New Year's Eve.

In a way of baptism, wash and wash away all the disappointments of previous years. Welcome a new year, an auspicious year, a happy and auspicious year.

Friends, go home for the New Year and wash the basin of Acorus gramineus water cooked by my mother. There will be good luck next year, haha ...
