What is the custom of Maoming Spring Festival?
1, "firecrackers kill the old year". On New Year's Eve, when the New Year bell rings, the first thing for every household to open the door is to set off firecrackers to bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new year, and firecrackers sound one after another. No matter the streets and lanes, rural farmers and firecrackers are everywhere, one after another, full of excitement and jubilation.
On the first day of Chinese New Year, people get up early. Adults and children wear new clothes, dress up beautifully, visit relatives and friends with gifts, and pay New Year greetings to each other. The younger generation should pay New Year greetings to their elders and wish them health, longevity and all the best. The elders will distribute the lucky money sealed with red gifts to the younger generation in advance.
3, "28, sloppy" is the mantra of Maoming's hometown people. That is, from the 23rd day of the lunar calendar before the Spring Festival, every household will choose sunny weather, and people of all ages will join the cleaning team. Because of the homonym of "dust" and "Chen", sweeping dust in the Spring Festival means "removing dust and bringing forth the new", which means sweeping away all bad luck when the new year comes.
4. Celebrating the New Year's Eve is one of the most important activities in China. On New Year's Eve, the whole family had a reunion dinner, watched the Spring Festival Gala and went out for a trip. Older people give their children lucky money, and young people who work honor their parents and grandparents and give them pocket money for one year. As soon as the New Year bell rings, set off firecrackers immediately and then go to bed.
The custom of Spring Festival has a long history, which shows the wisdom of working people. But with the passage of time and the constant invasion of western culture, many traditional and beautiful ways have gradually disappeared, and the rest is just as simple as cooking and eating. I hope that all localities can regain their beauty in the ever-increasing tide of cultural construction, and at the same time further promote the traditional culture of the Spring Festival and incorporate more new customs of civilization and fashion, so as to enrich the festive atmosphere of the festival and let the customs of the Spring Festival be passed down from generation to generation.
