In two days, it is the traditional festival in China-Spring Festival!

Early in the morning, the streets became lively. People help the old and bring the young to shopping malls and supermarkets to purchase various new year's goods; Some are busy cleaning all kinds of food at home; Some people put couplets and window grilles on their doors, and some people put this year's mascot-rabbit. Some naughty boys in the square will suddenly throw firecrackers, which will scare people. They would hide and laugh, and the air was filled with jubilation. By the way, I also wrote a lot of Spring Festival couplets this year. I gave each of the three aunts a pair and asked them to stick it on the door. They all praised me for my good writing.

China people have celebrated the Spring Festival for more than 4,000 years. According to legend, the Spring Festival began in Yu Shun. One day more than 2000 BC, Shun became emperor and led his men to worship heaven and earth. Since then, people have regarded this day as the beginning of a year. It is said that this is the origin of the Lunar New Year, which was later called the Spring Festival.

There are various customs and habits in the Spring Festival, among which greetings on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are the two most important. Children who work in other places, no matter how busy they are, should reunite with their parents and wait for the anniversary of the New Year's Eve. We came back to Grandma Jiang Yan's house from Nanjing. Nowadays, people usually sit around the TV after a reunion dinner and watch the Spring Festival Gala of CCTV. Near midnight, I saw fireworks set off outside. Speaking of the origin of this custom, there is an interesting story. Legend has it that in Archean, there was a fierce monster scattered in the mountains, which people called "Nian". Its appearance is ferocious, and its sex is ferocious. It specializes in eating birds and animals, changing its taste every day, from insects to living people, which makes people talk about the color change of "Nian". Later, people gradually mastered the activity law of "Nian", that is, every 365 days, people go to places where people live in concentrated communities to taste fresh food. The haunting time is after dark, and when the rooster crows at dawn, they return to the mountains. After the date of the "Year of the Year" was set, people regarded this terrible night as a gateway to endure it, and came up with a whole set of ways to spend New Year's Eve: every night, every family hid in the house and ate the "New Year's Eve". After dinner, no one dared to sleep, so they huddled together to chat and be brave. Gradually formed the habit of not sleeping on New Year's Eve. The morning of the first day of the new year is also the children's favorite moment. After getting up, they rushed to adults to say some auspicious words about New Year greetings. At this time, adults will grin and take out red envelopes, and they will worship all year round, and they can receive a lot of red envelopes. Of course, there are many other customs in the Spring Festival, such as dust removal, ancestor worship, and receiving the god of wealth. Children like Lantern Festival best. On that day, they can not only eat delicious Yuanxiao, but also show off each other with lanterns of different shapes, not to mention how happy they are. My aunt bought me a beautiful rabbit lamp this year. I couldn't wait that long, so I dragged it around early.
