Chinese New Year is approaching, families across the country generally want to post "Fu" character, Spring Festival, etc., while playing a decorative role, but also the New Year is a good luck. In some areas of the Northeast of China, pasted the Spring Festival couplets also paste "fractions", then what is called "fractions" it, let old calendar for you to introduce, the Northeast traditional customs: Spring Festival paste fractions.

The so-called "fragments", is relative to the couplets, couplets. In some areas of the Northeast, on the occasion of the New Year's Day, every family should be in the door, window frames on the red couplets and couplets, which is one of the essential content of the festival, and write couplets, couplets, cut the remaining corners of the material, it is necessary to write a number of relatively less neatly written words, pasted in the home of the unobtrusive corners, which is the "bits and pieces".

In the past, the rural New Year's Eve writing couplets, usually to find the village drank ink "cultural people". "Culture" on the table spread a good paper, make a good tea, roll up the sleeves, a yellow "Farmers' Calendar" before and after looking, left and right, selected a good pair, and then use the brush to copy up in a decent manner.

And write "bits and pieces" there is no need for such a publicity, but the village but all the rough ink people and even just put on the backpacks of the children can copy pen, because "bits and pieces" to write those words have long been stored in the minds of the countryside, there is no need to The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to do it.

So, a piece of long or short or wide or narrow "bits and pieces" like firecracker fragments scattered from the sky, curling Tingting, flew all over the corner of the farmhouse: the "bits and pieces" posted on the stove "four seasons of fresh vegetables The "fragment" posted in the yard is "full of spring"; the "fragment" posted in the duck house and chicken roost is "chickens and ducks in flocks"; the "fragment" posted in the sheep pen is "chickens and ducks in flocks"; and the "fragment" posted in the sheep pen is "chickens and ducks in flocks". Flock"; sheep pen and cowshed "fragment" is "six animals prosper"; livestock trough head "fragment" is "trough head prosper". The "fragmentary" is "prosperous trough head". "; the "fractions" pasted next to the statue of the door god is "open the door for good luck"; the "fractions" pasted next to the door frame is "look up and see joy"; the "fractions" pasted on the carriage is "open the door for good luck"; the "fractions" pasted on the carriage is "open the door for good luck". The "fragment" affixed on the carriage is "Safe in and out"; the "fragment" affixed in the toilet is "As you wish", each with its own meaning. The "bits and pieces" posted on the carriage are "safe in and out"; the "bits and pieces" posted on the toilet are "like a toilet", each with its own message.

These "bits and pieces" are well-intentioned reminders, some are pious expectations, some are beautiful visions, some are sincere wishes, reflecting the countryside on the stretching of smooth, happy life hopes and prayers. "Piecemeal" are written in the countryside of the heart, the truth, compared to the crepe couplets and pasted upside down the big red "Fu" character, it seems more informative and friendly, so many families in the New Year in addition to posting couplets, New Year's Eve paintings, but also to paste! "Piecemeal".

"Fragments" in the "big brother" when it is posted on the wall of the "spring strip" - the spring report of the banner. The "Spring Banner" is a banner that announces the spring. The "spring strip" is usually a long vertical strip, the length of which is the same as a couplet, but much narrower than a couplet. On it are usually written some of the words that country people love to hear and want to say, such as "It is good to be in the new spring, the whole family is happy; last year I earned 35,000, this year I earned it 88,000". The entire article is a big vernacular, the truth, but through the pursuit and hope.

Of course, there are individuals who utilize the "spring strip" to make fun of and tease people. The first time I saw this was when I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley, and I was a student at the University of California, Berkeley. Before the Spring Festival, the old man asked the latter to write "spring note", the latter to the heart of a bellyful of fire are scattered in the "spring note" on: "Golden chicken full of shelves, an egg is not, suffocated by the yard clucked; fat pig full of pens, all finished, the remaining one! Still have to send to the temple to return the wish!" The old man was greatly embarrassed, a moment of rumors as a joke.
