On New Year's Eve, the whole family get together to make jiaozi and have a New Year's Eve dinner, that is, a family reunion dinner. During the Spring Festival, every household will post Spring Festival couplets and New Year pictures. In the afternoon 12, the family set off fireworks to bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new year, hoping to send misfortune and good luck.
