Ask for a junior high school essay on the social life of the Chinese New Year 5

Seeing relatives - collecting money - being charged by parents - no money.

Time flies by like flowing water. In the blink of an eye, another year is coming to an end. Looking out the window at the fallen leaves, I couldn't help but recall the New Year's celebration when I was a child.

I remember that year, I was about ten years old. On Chinese New Year's Eve, the family is busy. Mom bought a couplet and stood outside the gate to make a gesture.

Spring returns to the earth and the world is warm, and all things are dyed green! I ran over and asked, "Mom, what are you going to do?" "Paste the Spring Festival couplets!

After pasting it, I looked up and saw that it was beautiful! The big red characters "shine" make my heart warm.

After pasting the Spring Festival, my mother rushed into the kitchen to prepare the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner. The sound of "ping pong" comes from the kitchen from time to time, and my mother must be directing pots and pans to play a symphony! The smell wafted in, and I couldn't stop swallowing, and I really wanted to taste it quickly.

Finally, when it was time for the meal to open, bowls of delicious food were served! Chicken, duck, fish, meat, vegetables, seafood, ......It's all together, and it's dazzling to see. Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom and I all sat around happily and happily ate Chinese New Year's Eve.

I've been hungry for a long time, and as soon as it was served, I devoured it like a little gluttonous cat. "Eat slowly, be careful to choke! My mother put a piece of chicken in my bowl, "If you eat chicken, you will grow a year old, but you can't be as ignorant as before!"

I blinked my eyes and asked curiously, "If you eat chicken, you will grow a year old, then I hope my grandparents don't eat chicken, then they will never get old!" Everyone laughed, and the grandparents laughed from ear to ear.

I sandwiched a piece of duck meat for each of my grandparents and said, "Duck meat won't get old after eating, you can eat more!" Grandpa said happily

Our baby is so filial! "Where's Grandma? The wrinkles on his face are all smiling like a flower!

The whole family ate and chatted, and the whole room was filled with a warm and joyful atmosphere.

I was almost done, I looked out the window, heh, every house was brightly lit, probably all eating reunion dinner! "Whew! A string of fireworks rises into the sky, and the colorful fireworks illuminate the entire night sky, as if wishing for a better new year!

I stared blankly, reveling in the sea of joy ......

The Spring Festival is the most important festival in our country and the most solemn festival of the year. Every household celebrates. Some ethnic groups will also hold some activities to celebrate the Spring Festival, such as dragon and lion dances, storytelling and singing, running dry boats, stepping on stilts, twisting Yangge and so on.

As soon as the New Year passes, adults and children are busy opening, preparing New Year's goods, sweeping the house, and worshipping ancestors! Sticking Spring Festival couplets is an indispensable project. Or do it yourself or ask someone to do it for you, and write the harvest of the year and the hope of the coming year into this small Spring Festival couplet.

Students, speaking of Spring Festival couplets, there is another story! Spring couplets, originated from peach charms, it first appeared in the Zhou Dynasty, is a rectangular peach door panel hanging on both sides of the gate. It is said that peach wood has the function of suppressing ghosts and driving away evil spirits.

Because the evil ghosts in the world are afraid of the two gods of "Shen Tu" and "Yu Lei", the people carve their appearance with peach wood and put it at the door of their house to ward off evil spirits. Later, people simply carved the names of the two gods on the mahogany board, believing that this would also ward off evil spirits. This kind of peach board is called "peach charm".

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, people began to write on peach symbols. Once, Meng Chang, the monarch of the Shu Kingdom, ordered the bachelors to write on the peach rune board on Chinese New Year's Eve, and because he could not see what the scholars wrote, Meng Chang simply wrote "Every year about Yuqing, the number of the year Changchun". This gave rise to China's first Spring Festival couplets.

Often go home to see, go home to see, no matter how far away the wanderer has to rush home to reunite with his family and eat the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner carefully prepared by his parents. In the old days, people called this Chinese New Year's Eve and staying up. This meal should be eaten slowly until late at night.

Watching the wonderful program of the Spring Festival Gala, surrounding the steaming hot pot, listening to the sound of firecrackers outside the window, the family enjoyed the joy of family. At this time, the happiest thing for children is that the elders will give out New Year's money. It is said that this practice existed during the Wei and Jin dynasties.

New Year's money is also called "New Year's money" and "New Year's money", because the year and the money are homonyms, and the New Year's money can suppress the evil and make the children celebrate the New Year peacefully.

The Chinese New Year is indispensable, visiting relatives and friends. Relatives and friends gathered together, ate sumptuous wine and food, exchanged blessings, and sought common development. This activity will continue until after the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

The Spring Festival is not only about eating, drinking and having fun together, but more importantly, it embodies a national spirit of our country. It is infused with a kind of family affection, a pursuit of a better life and harmony and tranquility between people.
