    2. Don't eat supper at home alone after 12 o'clock.

    4. When you go home in the middle of the night after shopping or going out to play, on the way back, you see that there is money on the ground, no matter how much money it is, you can't pick it up. You think pie is falling from the sky, and if you pick it up and take it home, take that thing home with you.

    The next day will find out that it is not money. It's a stygian coin. Something strange will happen after that. Because that's a plan that something wants to be "friends" with you.

    5. After midnight, I heard a knock on the door at home. Don't open the door, and don't look outside through the door (if there's a sensor light outside, you can't see anything without it), there are often lonely things to look for.

    7. Light candles after a power outage, and the candles should be extinguished before 12 o'clock. Otherwise, something will happen. Especially the room with a mirror.

    1. Don't mess around on the 30th night.

    Visiting the door on Chinese New Year's Eve is a taboo, because on the day of the family reunion, no one wants to be disturbed by outsiders, whether it is to talk, visit the door, or collect debts, it will destroy the joy of the family, so on Chinese New Year's Eve, no one can come except for the "family tartar".

    Second, you can't shave your head in the New Year.

    It is not allowed to shave your hair in the first month, which is a taboo in many areas, and the folk often say that "you shave your head in the first month and die uncle", which is an insult to your uncle! Of course, this kind of thing is definitely not going to happen, but in any case, in order to show respect for the uncle, no one will shave their head in the New Year, after all, it is a blood relationship.

    3. Don't beat or scold your child.

    Can't beat or scold during the New Year, this is a rule in many places, because it's the Spring Festival, it's a lively festival, and it's their nature for children to be naughty, so they have to endure it. Traditionally, if a child is reprimanded on the first day, he is reprimanded for a year. On New Year's Day, you have to say something nice and you can't swear it, and in some places, if the child says something wrong, the adult will say it immediately:

    There are no taboos in children's words. ”

    4. Avoid eating fish heads and tails.

    Eating a fish every year is a tradition and a symbol of good luck. But when it comes to other people's liking, you can't eat it, which used to be called "watching the dishes"! If you really want to eat it, then only eat the body of the fish, leaving the head and tail of the fish, which is a whole fish.

    In other words, next year's life will not only be worry-free, but also rich.

My hometown is in Liaoning, and now there are very few young people kneeling and kowtowing during the Chinese New Year, but some older people still retain this custom. Although many customs have disappeared, there are still some New Year customs in the rural areas of my hometown, such as pasting couplets on the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, but if an elderly person dies within three years of the family, couplets cannot be pasted.
