What are the customs with a long history in the Spring Festival?

I come from Qingdao. When we celebrate the Spring Festival here, every household can get busy, especially in the countryside. I have been busy since I was a child, and I have been busy delivering new year's goods. During the period, I experienced a small year, a busy year, buying new year's goods, a year except Japan, Chinese New Year, the coming year, keeping the old, Chinese New Year, and Chinese New Year. They are like symbols, stringing together a section of Qingdao's history and cultural customs passed down from generation to generation. In the off-year, Qingdao people used to call it "Ci Zao", which is the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month. According to the older generation, it is the kitchen god who will return to heaven. Therefore, early this morning, every household put a "kitchen horse" on their own cookstoves to worship jiaozi. It is said that the kitchen god can put in a good word after returning to the palace, which will bring a good harvest to farmers in the coming year. In a busy year, I began to be busy as soon as I entered the twelfth lunar month, and I was busy until the next year. Cleaning, washing clothes, bedding, buying new clothes, getting a haircut, dressing up and filling sausages are almost indispensable for every household in the New Year. Nowadays, many Qingdao citizens like to hang a flashing red lantern on the balcony, stick a big word "Fu" on the window and stick Spring Festival couplets on the security door. Anyway, as soon as we enter the twelfth lunar month, we will be decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations everywhere, which is very lively.
