The Spring Festival in Hometown

"A hundred miles of different winds, a thousand miles of different customs." Different places will have different New Year customs, let me take you into my hometown, into the hometown New Year customs.

The Chinese New Year starts around the middle of the lunar month. That busyness is simply indescribable. On the twentieth day of the Lunar New Year, every family makes fried fruits, crispy horns, rice dumplings and rice cakes. Glutinous rice is beaten into flour and twisted with sugar and powder.

Children prepare for the New Year, the first thing is to buy candy, cookies. The second big thing is to buy firecrackers, especially for boys. I'm afraid the third thing is to buy all kinds of things - harmoniums, kites and so on.

While the children are happy, the adults are busy. They had to prepare food, drink, clothing and supplies for the New Year, so that it would be a time of renewal.

The 23rd day of the Lunar New Year is almost a dress rehearsal for the Spring Festival. As soon as it gets dark, the firecrackers go off, and there is the flavor of the year. This is the day to eat rice cakes.

After the 23rd, everyone is even busier. There is a lot of cleaning, and there is a lot of chicken, meat, fish, vegetables, rice cakes and other things - most stores are closed from the first day of the first month to the seventh day of the first month, and don't open until the eighth day of the first month.

New Year's Eve is a busy time. Families rushed to make New Year's Eve dishes, and the smell of wine and meat was everywhere. Men and women of all ages put on new clothes, red couplets outside the door, the house put up a good colorful New Year's paintings. After the posting, people have to offer sacrifices to their ancestors. After the meal is the happiest time for us children, because we have to collect the New Year's money.

The first day of the first month is a very different story: shoppers look at the boards, and in front of the door are piles of firecrackers and paper skins that were set off last night. On the second day of the first month, everyone goes back to their parents' homes with gifts of all sizes.

On the sixth day of the first month, everyone gets up very early, everyone is busy preparing meals for the "master", "master" tour is the focus of the hometown year. On this day, you will see large and small, different colors of flags, which are escorting the "master" flag. The flags were left behind by the former "masters" and are very valuable.

The Lantern Festival is another highlight of the Spring Festival. On the fifteenth day of the first month of the lunar calendar, lights and colorful lanterns are displayed everywhere, and the whole street looks like a happy event, red and beautiful. On the evening of this moon, people would go to the temple to watch others perform a play, and the brighter the lights, the bigger the audience.

In the blink of an eye, the end of the Spring Festival has come, and the Spring Festival has made us grow another year older, and we have learned many things. The Spring Festival makes this kind motherland refreshed, full of red, joyful.
