Changes and Changes in New Year's Customs

New Year's Eve dinner, firecrackers continue to blow up the night sky throughout the New Year's Eve, a almost by the global village of all the Chinese flowing with the Chinese national blood concern, focusing on the nation's literary and artistic elites of the wisdom of the case in the people and property absolutely guarantee the supply of more than six months of planning, to watch the flawed, do not see it will be regretted for half a year of the Spring Festival Festival Festival Gala perfect curtain call, marking the Chinese people! The Spring Festival Gala has come to an end, marking the end of the traditional Chinese "year". When I think about it, I feel that some of the New Year's traditions left behind by our ancestors are still being passed on, while others have completely changed and some have disappeared. Changes in New Year's customs, so that the middle-aged and elderly people increasingly feel the flavor of the year is light, but also cater to the young people's simple, stylish and leisure mentality. The change and unchanged, to borrow an Internet buzzword, is very "tangled".

The one thing that hasn't changed is going home for New Year's Eve. Regardless of whether you are living in another country or drifting overseas, going home to reunite with your relatives and celebrate the New Year is the only option for every traveler who is in a position to do so. The "Spring Festival Transportation" is unique in the world, and it has become a trust for tens of millions of people - the population of a medium-sized country - to migrate collectively. My second brother works in Shanghai, and almost every year I struggle to find a ticket to go home for New Year's. If I book early, I'm too busy to get a ticket. If you book early, you will be too busy to make sure of your itinerary, and if you book late, you won't be able to buy a ticket. However, except for special circumstances, going home to spend the New Year with the elderly is a constant theme. The second brother was not able to come back for New Year's Eve because of his busy schedule, although he had already declared that he would not be able to do so, but the two old men felt that there was still a shortage.

What remains unchanged is the posting of Spring Festival couplets. I remember when I was a kid, I had to plan to put up a few copies of the Spring Festival couplets, buy a good red paper and cut it, and beg the village literate old man or school teacher to write them on my behalf. The content of the spring scrolls was published in the new Farmer's Calendar or the Chaoyang Daily, so there was not much to choose from. When I finished writing them, I would blow them dry with my mouth, take them home, and stick them on the wall with care. Later, he became a teacher, and then begged others to write on behalf of the fear of being laughed at, so I had to do it myself. Later, the family's Spring Festival couplets not only write their own, but also for the neighbors to write, and sometimes have to take the red paper. Nowadays, only to the market to buy spring couplets, good in the market, a wide range of spring couplets, lucky words, hanging signs, but according to the requirements of the elderly, the content must reflect the peace, good luck and prosperity. What remains unchanged is the New Year's Eve dinner. This is full of affection, full of expectations, full of harvest New Year's Eve dinner, the family gathered together, happy. In the past, my mother believed in the old order, the girl went back to her mother's home for New Year's poor family, the general situation of the sister went to her mother-in-law's home for New Year's Eve. In the past few years, my mother has strongly favored and supported my sisters to voluntarily choose to go back to their mother's home for New Year's Eve. When there are a lot of people, two tables are full, which increases the popularity, and the two old people are overjoyed. Each small family has to come up with their own skills, burned one or two good dishes, everyone pushes the cups and exchanges, so lively.

What doesn't change is the firecrackers. It seems that people feel that firecrackers are one of the most reflective of the New Year's atmosphere of the New Year's custom, so much so that this object almost every year caused a lot of trouble, and even caused disaster, people still do not give up. General New Year's Eve dinner and evening vigil cooking dumplings firecrackers, the children have long been waiting, this time, the old man's instructions are indispensable: stay away from the point of view, plus careful.

What remains unchanged is the form of ancestor worship. According to my mother's instructions, after the New Year, Lunar New Year's root is the day to go back home to pay homage to their ancestors. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the most popular products and services in the world, and you'll be able to do it on your own. Winter without snow, the climate is dry, fear of burning paper on the grave of the mountain fire, the old man is careful, with tools to deal with it. On New Year's Eve, when the bell for the new year is about to ring, my mother burns a few joss sticks of incense and a pile of paper to pray for the health, safety and success of her children and grandchildren. After eating the dumplings, the mother quietly slips each child an empty peach kernel tied with a red velvet thread, instructing them to carry it with them at all times.

What has changed is the form of New Year's greetings. When I was a child, after eating dumplings on New Year's Eve, I began to pay my respects. First to grandma, mom and dad kowtow, early on the first day of the year to go door to door to pay respects. After joining the work, although not kowtow, but the first two or a few doors, to elders, teachers, leaders to sit at home, nagging, counted as New Year's Eve. Later, the unprecedented popularity of the telephone, people fashionable telephone New Year's Eve. Now replaced by a text message to pay tribute to the New Year, and then the "neck" to pay tribute to the New Year. Although the content of the text message is more or less the same, but the way to pay tribute to the New Year has been fundamentally different.

The change is to buy new year's goods. When I was a child, I remember just entering the waxing moon, people began to buy new year's goods. Steam bean buns, do tofu, kill the New Year pig, to the root of the year, more careful speculation, the need to buy must buy all, because the New Year's store is not open, even if "not bad money", you have nowhere to buy. Nowadays, there is an abundant supply of commodities, and merchants serve around the clock, so although prices rise much faster than incomes, you will never have to worry about a shortage of commodities again. In fact, the main change is that people are no longer in the traditional sense of the past New Year's Eve to eat well and wear good, if there is time and interest, every day can be like the year over, there is a need to hoard New Year's Eve?

The change is the treat. I remember after joining the work, every year in the first month, almost every family to treat, more than a few times, less than a table. The good cigarettes and good wine that you can't afford to enjoy on New Year's Day should be saved for the day of the invitation for the honored guests to enjoy. In order to show respect to the guests, and show off the ability to pull out to get these hot commodities. In order to invite good guests, the family began to prepare a few days before, sometimes more than the New Year's effort. After the guests left, the housewife had a hard time cleaning up the leftovers and doing the dishes. Nowadays, no one makes a big fuss at home when they are invited to a party, so they can get together with their favorite friends and relatives and get drunk in a hotel.

Changing New Year's Eve, witnessed the years of change, the progress of the times, the concept of renewal, witnessed the modernization of the people to bring the speed and convenience; unchanged New Year's Eve, inherited the Chinese nation's long history and splendid culture. Dialectically look at the "change" and "unchanged", which "give up" and which "stay", people naturally look at the "The government has also been working on a number of other issues, such as the development of a new policy for the development of the country.
