Let s talk about the customs of the Spring Festival in your hometown, right?

Set off firecrackers, clean the room, pay New Year's greetings, lion dance and dragon lanterns, stay up for the New Year, paste Spring Festival couplets and door gods, paste window flowers and paste the word "Fu" upside down. The Spring Festival is an ancient festival in our country, and it is also the most important festival of the whole year, how to celebrate this festival, in the historical development of thousands of years, some relatively fixed customs and habits have been formed, and many of them have been passed down to this day.

On the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, the dust-sweeping folk proverb is called "the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, dusting and sweeping the house". After the festival is held, preparations for the New Year begin in earnest.

Zhaotian silkworm is also called "burning field silkworm" and "burning field wealth", which is a popular folk custom of praying for the New Year in the south of the Yangtze River. On the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, the long pole tied to the torch is erected in the field, and the flame is used to divinate the new year, and the flame is prosperous to indicate a good harvest in the coming year. In some places, this event is held in the Chinese New Year's Eve.

In ancient times, people believed that a few kind words from the Lord of the Stove in front of the Jade Emperor would bring happiness to the family and bless the family in the coming year. Therefore, every year on the twenty-third day of the lunar month, every household has to sacrifice to the god of the stove[3], asking him to say more good and auspicious words after going to heaven. This ritual of sending the god of the stove is called"Send the stove"or"Resignation"。

On Chinese New Year's Eve, I still have to put it"Vesta"Pick it up again. Because, on the night of the twenty-third day of the lunar month, the portraits or ** of the Lord of the Stove and the ancestors should be hung on the wall, and the wine and tribute should be prepared, and the worship of the tribesmen should be accepted until the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve. However, when sacrificing to the stove, the Kanto sugar should be melted and applied to the mouth of the stove prince, so that the stove prince would not speak ill.

Catch up with the big market, buy some meat (pork, mutton, beef, chicken, fish, etc.), vegetables, tofu, firecrackers, couplets, Grandpa Tiandi (posted on the wall), burn incense, etc.

Set off firecrackers, paste Spring Festival couplets, paste New Year's paintings, keep the New Year, eat reunion dinners, pay New Year's greetings, and visit temple fairs.

I got up at about 6 o'clock on the second day of junior high school, cooked dumplings, and ate dumplings. Before dawn, send grandparents, set off firecrackers, burn paper, and go to the grave.

After sending the god vesta to heaven, it was not welcomed back until Chinese New Year's Eve, during which there was no god in the world, there were no taboos, and the people married many times, which was called "rushing the chaotic year". The chaotic year is a specific period of time designed by the people for themselves to regulate social life. At the end of the year, people have leisure and savings, and it is a good time for leisure and entertainment for people who rarely have the energy to do big things.

Therefore, according to the needs of real life, people invented this special time folklore.

As the saying goes, "on the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, kill the pig and cut the meat" or "on the twenty-sixth, cut the knife head", it means that this day is mainly to prepare for the New Year's meat. The reason why "cutting New Year's meat" is included in the New Year's song is because the agricultural social economy is underdeveloped, and people can often eat meat in the New Year's Festival, so it is called "New Year's meat".
