How did you celebrate Chinese New Year when you were a child?

At that time, I always looked forward to the Chinese New Year because I could wear new clothes. On the day of the market, my mother would buy new clothes for the children from the market. Although it seems that the style of the clothes is dirty, I always feel very foreign at that time, and the new clothes will not be worn until the day of the New Year's greetings.

Nowadays, I wear all kinds of famous brands and clothes are piled up in the windows, but I always feel that I have no clothes to wear, and I don't have the joy of wearing new clothes.

Every month of wax, the family begins to kill New Year's pigs, make bacon, spicy fish, cleaning, fried lotus root clips, make tofu, purchase New Year's goods, and are very busy. We children also have to give hands to adults, and on the day of the Chinese New Year, we can wear new clothes, new shoes, and firecrackers, the cheapest kind. The kind of whole string of firecrackers that are disassembled, and the load is full.

I had a lot of fun running around with the kids next door. In the evening, adults gather around to watch the Spring Festival Gala, eat dumplings, children have snowball fights, set off fireworks, and have fun. And on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, there is a new year vigil, until 12 o'clock, and then fireworks. ‍‍

When I was a child, the living conditions were not as good as they are now, but they had the flavor of the year and the human touch. Now that the living conditions are better, everyone feels that the New Year is no longer interesting. When I was a child, I had to sweep the house in the first half of the Chinese New Year, move all the furniture and supplies out, and clean the cobwebs and tower ash on the roof and walls.

Buy meat, buy vegetables and steamed steamed buns. In the morning of the Chinese New Year's Eve, I did not eat and made many dishes, and the table was full. After lunch, the man went to the grave.

Women make noodles at home and mix stuffing dumplings. ‍‍

It's okay to eat steamed buns or dumplings at night. Dumplings are generally filled with two kinds of fillings, pork and vegetarian fillings! At 12 o'clock at night, every household collectively set off firecrackers.

Get up at four or five o'clock in the morning on the first day of the new year, put on new clothes, cook dumplings, and then go to the elders' homes to kowtow. There will be red envelopes for small children. New Year's greetings will not stop until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year!

On the sixth day of the first month, the street shops set off firecrackers one after another, knowing that the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month is the end of the New Year. ‍‍

At that time, I always looked forward to the New Year, because I could eat good things that I couldn't usually eat. Dad would buy a few pounds of meat from the market, buy some melon seeds, peanuts, milk candy, stir-fry a few dishes on Chinese New Year's Eve, stew a chicken, cut a ham, a whole bottle of Sprite, and the family will eat happily around the table, indescribably comfortable and warm. Now that the living conditions are better, after a busy afternoon, a table of big fish and meat is set, but no one can eat it. ‍‍

At that time, I was always looking forward to the New Year, because my friends could enjoy themselves again. Groups of three or five ran around the street, freezing so cold that their little ears and hands were red and they didn't even notice it. The friends bought a few boxes of cannons and two small firecrackers in the village commissary, holding firecrackers in one hand and incense in the other.

Back then, when you hung a small firecracker and carried a few dollars in your pocket that you were reluctant to spend, you could be happy for a year. ‍‍

When I was a child, I didn't sleep all night during the New Year, I played here and there, and I wouldn't go home before 12 o'clock, so I called a group of friends to run and laugh and go to the small supermarket to buy all kinds of small firecrackers. Now we alas, when the Chinese New Year comes, we will stay at home and hold our mobile phones, grab all kinds of red envelopes and send blessings. Seriously, I really want to go back to my childhood, I miss it! ‍‍

At that time, I always looked forward to the New Year, and felt that the world of adults was very spiritual, and I always wanted to grow up quickly, and I didn't have to worry about anything when I grew up. But when I grew up, I realized that the world of adults is not as beautiful as I thought when I was a child. I look forward to the New Year when I am young, and I am worried about the New Year.

It's not that the taste of the year has faded, it's that we have grown up! We grew up, but our parents got old. I hope to go back in time, go back to the past, and have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with a strong family flavor. ‍‍

When I was a child, I liked to buy some cheap gifts with my two or three friends, and I had a few happy ones.

When I was a child, I was on vacation, preparing New Year's goods with my parents, cleaning, staying up late on Chinese New Year's Eve, and eating dumplings.

Hello subject! When I was a child, I would wear new clothes for the Spring Festival, and then the happiest thing was to collect the New Year's money.

Put the new clothes at the head of the bed, fall asleep sweetly, and go early the next morning, change into new clothes and run crazy all day.

I think the happiest thing about the Chinese New Year when I was a child was to give out red envelopes, because after sending red envelopes, you can buy delicious and fun food, and you can also wear new clothes.

The happiest time for the Chinese New Year must be to receive red envelopes, because you can take red envelopes when you are a child, and you can get thousands of yuan after the New Year.

When I was a child, the happiest thing about the New Year was having new clothes to wear and delicious food.

1. Sacrificial stove, the god of the stove embodies the awe and worship of fire by the ancients, and later the sacrifice to the god of the stove evolved into a folk festival.

2. Sweep the dust, after the sacrificial stove, every household will start to sweep the dust, which is the year-end cleaning.

3. Paste Spring Festival couplets, door gods, window flowers and New Year's paintings. Spring Festival couplets are also known as door pairs, spring posts, is a kind of couplet, because it is posted during the Spring Festival, so it is called Spring Festival couplets.

4. The sound of firecrackers and firecrackers is a sign of saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, and the expression of festive mood. Respect the God of Wealth to be the first, and set off firecrackers to the back of the palace.

5. Ancestor worship, most of the forms of ancestor worship are to place the ancestral tablets in the main hall in turn at home, display offerings, and then bow down on incense.

6. New Year's greetings and group worship, an important activity in the Spring Festival, is to go to the homes and neighbors of new friends and neighbors to congratulate the New Year, formerly known as New Year's greetings.

Nowadays, many people feel that there is no New Year's flavor, and some people sigh: In fact, it is not that the New Year has no taste, but it is not our generation that feels happy during the New Year. In my opinion, there are many interesting things about the Spring Festival when I was a child compared to the current Spring Festival, and most of them are still fresh in my memory.

The Spring Festival when I was a child.

At that time, I woke up happily in the morning and put on new clothes, and after breakfast, I followed my parents to visit relatives and received red envelopes from the elders.

At night, I walked the streets and alleys with my friends, went out to set off firecrackers, played fairy sticks, and watched fireworks in the night sky, because the Internet has not yet been popularized, and I am still young and have no mobile phones, so the family is more likely to sit on the sofa in the living room to watch the Spring Festival Gala and discuss those interesting pictures together.

Watch the Spring Festival Gala together.

Nowadays, because the economic conditions are better, there are a lot of clothes to buy, and there is no excitement when I wore new clothes, and now in consideration of safety issues, there is a certain control over the discharge of fireworks and firecrackers, and fireworks are prohibited in a certain area, so the chances of seeing fireworks have become much less.

Because everyone has grown up and has their own mobile phones, everyone is concentrated in the square world in their hands at night, playing games, swiping ** or grabbing red envelopes, which is also the embodiment of the development of the Internet era.

Just play with your phone.

I always feel that the current Spring Festival is really boring, and I can't go back to the Spring Festival when I was a child. But life still has to be lived, the cleaning before the Spring Festival has not changed, the couplets to be posted before the Spring Festival have not changed, the New Year's money for the Spring Festival has not changed, and the family reunion and eating together during the Spring Festival have not changed.

For some beautiful pictures, you can also record them with photos in time to become good memories. Although I feel that the taste of the New Year is much lighter now, perhaps this also reflects the improvement and improvement of our living conditions and the improvement of the quality of life in a certain aspect.
