Analysis of 800 words in folk composition of Spring Festival in Guanyun County, Lianyungang, my hometown.

This Spring Festival, I was lucky enough to return to my hometown in Hubei after eight years' absence, and spent the long-awaited New Year with my grandparents. This reunion seems to make me know more about the folk customs of my hometown, and at the same time, I have some insights.

First of all, introduce the old customs! In Hubei, the first day of the year is divided into three parts, of which China New Year is the biggest. From the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month to the thirtieth of the twelfth lunar month, besides clothes, people eat the most, such as sun-dried and frozen rice. Hot bean cake, glutinous rice cake, etc. , are extremely rich! Frozen rice, bean cake and glutinous rice cake are the best. Women are mainly responsible for preparing food for the Spring Festival, while men focus on clearing debts. The collection should be constantly urged, and the repayment should be paid before the 30th of the year, so as to collect money from each other and have a happy New Year. But the poor are: in their thirties, they hide from cats and wave their hands on the first day. I was afraid that my creditors would force me to pay back the money for the Spring Festival, so I hid everywhere until the first day of the first month, because it was from the night of the 30 th to the Lantern Festival. Creditors can never ask the debtor for money, so they can rest assured. The word "New Year's Eve" is called "New Year's Eve" in Hubei Province. The time is usually noon or before dawn, and what you said that day should be auspicious. In order to prevent children from gossiping, children's words or free red notes are posted in the hall. After dinner, the elders gave red envelopes, the younger generation received lucky money, and the ban was wide open at night, making the whole family happy. Bright lights, staying up all night, is called shou sui; The east is not white, set off firecrackers. Go out of the Arabian Nights and open the door to welcome the New Year.

Seeing the old customs in Hubei, I can't help but think of this year's Spring Festival. There are many relatives at home. At the reunion dinner, everyone was busy toasting and saying congratulations. I always feel uncomfortable sitting next to me. After dinner, everyone is busy processing text messages sent by mobile phones. Until the Spring Festival Gala began, everyone sat on the sofa and enjoyed the evening program, clapping and laughing from time to time. After reading it, it's too late. Yes, traditional customs do appeal to us, but how much does it seem to be preserved now? All happiness seems to have been replaced by modern high technology. Having a reunion dinner, giving out red envelopes and watching a party is the same procedure every Spring Festival. Every time I wait, I look forward to the arrival of the new year, but once it is over, I feel dull and have nothing to remember. Although this is also very warm, I always feel that something simpler is missing.
