Fulfilling, happy, religious, and very nostalgic for the New Year as a child.

    For the people of the Northeast, the customs of the New Year may be more than in other places, because we mainly inherit the customs and habits of the Manchu people to celebrate the New Year, and every year the New Year must kill the New Year's pigs, make sticky bean buns, make New Year's tofu, clean up, and go to the grave to worship the ancestors. The rest of the customs are probably pretty much the same.

    Many Liaoning people in the Chinese New Year's Eve order longevity lamps and shine all night. From the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve to the 15th Lantern Festival of the first month, every family must hang red lanterns, and the lanterns should be lit on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the lights should not be turned off for one night, which means that life is prolonged.

    The girl who marries out cannot celebrate the New Year in her mother's house, otherwise the year will be unfavorable to her mother's brother. The so-called "no mother's lamp" on the night of the thirtieth night of the Chinese New Year's Eve actually means this.

    My hometown is in the countryside of Nanchang, Jiangxi, and there is a special custom for the New Year, which is called "oil food" and "tea change" in the hometown dialect, which is actually a simple fried oil cake and candy and biscuits, but it is full of traditional taste and memory in the hometown area.

    "Oily food" is to use glutinous rice flour as the main raw material, and add some japonica rice flour to prevent the dough from being too soft, but the amount of japonica rice flour should be controlled, and if you add too much oil, it will be hard or even cracked, so the ratio of the two must be controlled well, but adding more and less is actually nothing, and in the end it will go into the stomach, just whether it looks good or not.

    After glutinous rice flour and japonica rice flour are stirred together, boiling water and flour should be added, not cold water, otherwise the taste will not be good. Add hot water little by little, otherwise your hands will be scalded, and then slowly stir the powder into a ball, do not add oil or salt or sugar in the middle, and keep the original flavor.

    Finally, take out a small piece of the stirred dough, keep rubbing it back and forth in the palm of your hand, and then use the root of your palm to make a round cake with a diameter of about 5 cm, and put it on a cutting board or other plane. Remember not to blow the wind or cover the powder with a slightly damp gauze to prevent it from cracking.

    Then it is fried in the oil pan, and rapeseed oil must be used, otherwise the fried will not be authentic and fragrant. Pour a large bucket of oil into the pot, slowly heat the oil over medium and low heat, and wait until the oil temperature rises, there is a trace of oil smoke to put the powder into it one by one, one by one, do not stir it with a spatula or chopsticks at first, wait until the powder is about to float up, see if there is something glued together, and then separate them with chopsticks, one side is browned and then look at the other side, both sides are browned and float up after it is generally successful.

    The first thing to do is to put it on a plate and worship the Bodhisattva and ancestors.

    Then we went to other homes in the same village to "change tea", the first choice was that someone got married or died this year, and we took the packaged oily food to their house to exchange it for candy or biscuits to go home, because their family can't eat oily food this year. In fact, I don't know why, anyway, they are all customs that have been passed down from generation to generation, and they cannot be ignored.

    Finally, remember to fry over low heat, heat oil over medium-low heat, and don't heat it anyway. The most important thing is that don't talk in the process of frying oil cakes, eat if you want to eat, and put it when you want to, anyway, this is the unified law of fried food in the whole country.

    There are quite a lot, so let's pick a few more magical ones to say:

    (1) You must get up on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year

    There is an agreed custom in our family that it is on the morning of the first day of the new yearYou can't be woken up, you have to get up yourself. And when you get up, you can't speak, you have to wash up first, and you can't speak until you're done.

    (2) The diet of the first and second years of junior high school is particular

    In general,For breakfast on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we eat glutinous rice balls here. Moreover, it is not the normal kind of rice ball, it is a very large kind of rice ball, which may be about the size of a child's palm.

    And stipulatedThe number of glutinous rice balls cannot be singular, and even numbers must be eaten. Because, every year on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, when I eat rice balls, I have to hold back and forcibly eat two. Some families will also boil eggs, and then the eggs have to eat even numbers, which is scary to think about.

    And thenOn the morning of the second year of junior high school, we usually eat noodles, although I don't know what this means, anyway, I have to eat noodles. Because every household has pig's trotters during the Chinese New Year, the side dish of the noodles is hoof flowers, and speaking of which, I am already starting to feel greasy.

    It wasn't until the third year of junior high school that everyone began to leave relatives one after another, so there was no other need for food.

    (3) After Chinese New Year's Eve, dirty water cannot be poured out

    Roughly that means,After everyone is reunited in the Chinese New Year's Eve, all the water for washing vegetables and dishes at home will be packed in buckets, and then poured out in the second year of junior high school.

    If you ask about the meaning, it seems that it is because these symbolize one's own property, so it is not allowed to be poured out on the first day of the new year. Similarly, you can't go out and spend money on the first day of the new year.

    1.Worship God.

    Before and after the Spring Festival, the ancients worshipped many gods, including worshipping the king of the stove on the 23rd or 24th day of the lunar month, worshipping the three gods of Fulushou on Chinese New Year's Eve, worshipping the God of Wealth on the second or fifth day of the new year, worshipping Tai Sui on the eighth day of the new year, worshipping the Jade Emperor on the ninth day of the new year, and so on.

    Of course, it is more important than worshipping the gods, to worship the ancestors, they are the most important gods in the family, because without them, there would be no us.

    2.Dinner.

    Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is also called reunion dinner, reunion dinner, and fireplace.

    The ancient custom of eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, at the end of each year, every household prepared meat and vegetables, celebrated the New Year, and the family gathered to drink and eat a reunion dinner.

    Modern people eat Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, generally on the afternoon or evening of Chinese New Year's Eve, worship the gods and ancestors first, and only start the meal after the worship ceremony is completed.

    According to the different customs of different places, China will prepare some good foods on the dinner table, such as fish to symbolize surplus every year, tangyuan to symbolize reunion, dumplings to represent "more years of age", long noodles to indicate longevity, and rice cakes to mean high every year.

    In my hometown, the Spring Festival is usually spent on Chinese New Year's Eve, watching the Spring Festival Gala, and paying New Year's greetings. The Spring Festival means the end of the year and the beginning of another year for the common people. How much is the harvest in one year and how to plan for the coming year, so this day of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new year is particularly important for the people, and it is also a special lively and festive time.

    Especially for people nowadays, the Spring Festival is a rare day for family reunion, and the family cherishes this day very much. In our place, we have to prepare the New Year's goods four days before the Chinese New Year. Then the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, the ingredients for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner will be prepared.

    We pay special attention to the amount of food on the table. A good number represents good luck in the coming year. Therefore, the dishes at home are generally even-numbered, generally eight, ten, and twelve.

    Eight means that eight is inseparable from the hair, and the next year will be rich, ten means perfect, and twelve means that every month of the coming year will be prosperous. When eating the Chinese New Year's Eve spine dumpling rice, there is a particularly interesting thing. That is, whether it is chicken feet or duck feet, you must give them to the pillar of the family, because eating more claws can catch more wealth in the coming year.

    Of course, during the meal, there is also a part of the New Year's money that children especially like.

    After eating, I will basically talk to the neighbors and talk about what each family eats for Chinese New Year's Eve. Then when it gets dark, it's time for the family to sit together and watch the Spring Festival Gala, which is especially precious for people who go out to work. Many families don't spend much time together throughout the year.

    When watching the Spring Festival Gala, parents can ask their children how they work, and children can also accompany their parents well, which may be the biggest significance of the Spring Festival Gala. The next morning, every child would be knocked on the door with a bag in his hand. It's a New Year's greeting.

    When the children knock on the door with their bags, the first thing they have to say when the owner opens the door is, "Happy New Year, I'm here to greet you." The host would give the children some candy or fruit, and each child's bag would be full in the morning. That's a lot of fun for kids.
