Everyone's hometown has its own unique customs, and the customs and habits of my hometown are also distinctive and unique, everywhere showing the folk customs and traditions rich in Chinese culture. And what I want to talk about today is the Spring Festival.When it comes to the Spring Festival, people will think of a related legend: In ancient China, there was a monster called Nian, with antennae on its head and extremely fierce. Every New Year's Eve, it would devour livestock and harm the people. Therefore, on this day, people in every village and Hamlet, carrying the elderly and children, would flee into the deep mountains to avoid the harm of Nian. On New Year's Eve this year, the people of Taohua Village were taking refuge in the mountains with the elderly and children. An old beggar came from another village. Some villagers were sealing their Windows and doors, some were packing their luggage, and some were leading cattle and sheep. It was a scene of haste and panic. Who still had the heart to take care of this old man? Only an old woman in the east of the village gave him some food. And he urged him to go up the mountain quickly to avoid the Nian beast. The old man promised, "Grandma asked me to stay at home for one night. I will surely drive the Nian beast away." But she still tried to persuade him. The begging old man smiled but said nothing. The mother-in-law had no choice but to leave home and go up the mountain to take refuge. In the middle of the night, the "Nian" beast broke into the village. He found that the atmosphere in the village was different from previous years. At the east end of the village, the old woman's door was pasted with big red paper, and the candle inside the house was brightly lit. The Nian beast trembled all over and let out a strange cry. Just as it was approaching the door, a loud "bang bang pop" sound suddenly came from the courtyard. "Nian" trembled all over and fled in a disheveled manner.
It turned out that the "New Year" was most afraid of red flames and explosions. This custom soon spread in the village. Since then, every New Year's Eve, every household pasted red couplets, set off firecrackers, and had candles brightly lit, staying up late to wait for the New Year. This custom has been passed down in my hometown to this day.

In our hometown, Spring Festival couplets are pasted every Spring Festival. Whether living in a high-rise building or a bungalow, every household pastes red couplets on their doors to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, adding to the festive atmosphere.Spring Festival couplets are said to have originated from peach charms. The original intention of the peach amulet was to seek peace. According to ancient records, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, there were already people in the imperial court who wrote couplets on peach talismans. In the poem by Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty, "The sun shines brightly in every household, and the old talismans are always replaced with new peaches," the "new peaches" and "old talismans" refer to peach talismans. Later, the peach talisman changed from peach wood boards to paper.
The custom of pasting Spring Festival couplets became popular in the Ming Dynasty. It is said that Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty was very fond of the "Spring Festival couplets" pasted by wealthy families. Therefore, he wanted to promote them and required that every Spring Festival, every household in Jinling should stick the big red Spring Festival couplets on the door frames. On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was patrolling invisibly, saw a family that was too busy to put up Spring Festival couplets. After learning the reason, Zhu Yuanzhang personally wrote a pair of Spring Festival couplets and gave them to this family. However, the family was reluctant to stick them and kept them as "limited edition" Spring Festival couplets... As time goes by, the content of Spring Festival couplets not only expresses New Year's blessings but also incorporates people's praise for a better life.
There are certain rules to follow when pasting Spring Festival couplets. The positions of the upper and lower couplets must not be wrong. When pasting Spring Festival couplets, people can stick the couplet and the lower couplet according to the writing style of the horizontal inscr.iption. If the horizontal inscr.iption is written from right to left, the upper couplet should be pasted on the right; otherwise, it should be pasted on the left.
Pasting Spring Festival couplets is not only for creating a festive and harmonious atmosphere, but also carries people's yearning and love for a better life.

"Nian gao, Nian gao, higher every year." Making rice cakes on the Winter Solstice is a traditional custom in our hometown.Around the Winter Solstice, the village is filled with a familiar smell everywhere - it's rice cakes! It's time to make rice cakes! Look, every household is like attending a temple fair. Some are carrying bags of glutinous rice on their shoulders, while others are carrying them in carts, transporting them to the village entrance one after another. Everyone pours bags of glutinous rice into the rice mill and grinds it into glutinous rice flour to make rice cakes. The ground glutinous rice flour was all poured into small wooden barrels. It was white and soft. When dipped in a little and put in the mouth, there was a faint aroma of rice mixed with a hint of sweetness... After all the glutinous rice was ground up, the family members carried the wooden bucket to the charcoal stove for steaming the rice cakes. They just waited for the glutinous rice flour to be cooked before making the rice cakes. Everyone's face was reddened by the charcoal from the stove, looking very festive.
Before long, the steamed cake chef shouted, "It's ready!" The crowd immediately began to stir, and the children couldn't wait any longer, all rubbing their hands together and eager to have a try. The steaming glutinous rice flour was poured into the stone mortar. "It's time to start!" Hardly had the words been spoken when several strong young men rolled up their sleeves, surrounded the stone mortar and held the wooden mallets, pounding the glutinous rice flour while spinning. The naughty children would also take the opportunity to come forward, one knocking and the other pounding. But if they accidentally rubbed glutinous rice flour on their faces, they would end up with little painted faces.
It wasn't long before the rice cakes were made. The aunts then took kitchen knives and skillfully divided a large piece of rice cake into many small pieces. Taking a bite of the steaming hot rice cake, it is fragrant, smooth and soft. Anyone who tastes it will exclaim in admiration. The leftover corners of the rice cake were turned into little rabbits, little carps, and big babies by the dexterous grandma... The children love these very much. Finally, each household neatly placed the rice cakes piece by piece on the bamboo MATS and then lifted the MATS onto the well-ventilated bamboo racks. After it dries, you can take it home and enjoy it slowly.
On the Winter Solstice, the whole village makes and eats rice cakes. What they savor is the warmth among neighbors and the affection among fellow villagers.

The river lanterns in the water, rippling by the waves, drift further and further away. Finally, the light and the reflection gradually blurred and gradually disappeared...Today is the Zhongyuan Festival. I remember that in the past, parents would take their children to release river lanterns in the evenings, and this year is no exception. When it is completely dyed into a black cloth one day, you can go out. After our family bought the river lantern, we came to the riverbank. I took out one of the river lanterns and, after praying in my heart, began to light it. The flame was so bright.
Let my memory drift back to that night a long time ago. We went to release river lanterns with my grandpa. He was very kind to me. At that time, I was still very young. Looking at his figure, I felt like a huge mountain. We came to the river and lit the lanterns with a "click". In an instant, I noticed that there were many more wrinkles on his face. The flame was very small, but it lit up my heart.
I asked my grandpa why he released river lanterns. The master thought for a while and said, "Legend has it that on this day, the gates of hell will open, and the deceased will return to the human world to reunite with their families. But the people in the human world, fearing that they might forget their way home, release river lanterns. I then asked, what does' deceased 'mean?" The master smiled and said, "It's just that one person has gone to a very far place and will never come back." I nodded half-understandingly and muttered softly, "Grandpa, will you?" Grandpa seemed to understand my meaning. No, I would always be with Xinyan. Then I no longer worried about Grandpa. The smile at that time was so warm. A few years later, I never saw my grandpa again. My heart was touched. Tears trickled down like a string of pearl necklaces. I lit a river lantern. I seemed to see my grandpa's warm smile. Looking at the river lantern, I said, "Did you see it?" I will surely bring honor to our parents and bring honor to our family. Are you doing well in that distant place?
Tears fell into the river and merged with it. The river lantern walked further and further away, carrying my yearning and my grandpa's hope, gradually vanishing into the darkness, and also illuminating the way ahead.

In the morning, the hazy dawn light lifted the mist, and the crowing of roosters was clear and pleasant. I slowly got out of bed, brushed my teeth and washed my face.

There was another thing that made us younger generations the happiest, and that was receiving lucky money. The elders give us lucky money in the hope that we will have a peaceful and safe year.

The Spring Festival is an ancient traditional festival in China and also the most important festival of the year. Therefore, the customs of the Spring Festival are diverse. Because it is said that the Nian beast is afraid of red, firelight and noise, people have customs such as pasting Spring Festival couplets, setting off firecrackers and beating gongs and drums. Customs vary in different periods, regions and ethnic groups.During the Spring Festival in Zhejiang, there are a variety of activities with strong ethnic characteristics. On the 23rd day of the 12th lunar month, it is said that this is the day when the Kitchen God ascends to heaven, so every household offers sacrifices to the Kitchen God. It is believed that if the Kitchen God speaks a few kind words before the Jade Emperor in heaven, it will bring happiness to the family and ensure the safety of the entire family in the coming year. Therefore, on the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month every year, every household offers sacrifices to the Kitchen God, asking him to speak more kind and auspicious words when he ascends to heaven. According to folk legend, the Kitchen God goes up to heaven to specifically accuse people of good and evil.

On the 24th day of the 12th lunar month, sweeping the dust is called the year-end thorough cleaning. In the north, it is called "sweeping the house", while in the south, it is called "dusting".

The noodles in Gansu Province are simply amazing!The chef brought me the noodles I had been waiting for a long time. "Beef noodles" are my favorite. Whenever relatives or friends come to Gansu, I will definitely recommend them. The aroma of red oil wafts through the air. The beef is firm and never dries out. The white radish and minced garlic, paired with the shiny yellow noodles, are the fruits of the simple and strong spirit of the people in the northwest, embodying their straightforward and bold sentiments. It's so fragrant that it makes you smack your lips, and so spicy that it makes you feel refreshed...
Whether in daily life or during festivals, noodles are indispensable on the tables of people in Gansu. I remember the first time I tasted such a "northwest delicacy" was when I was two or three years old. My grandma brought me minced meat noodles. She picked out a uniform and plump "noodle" from a bowl full of fragrant soup, but it kept getting longer and longer. I was afraid of the heat and didn't dare to eat it in one bite. I could only bite one end and slowly inhale the noodles into my mouth. At that moment, my eyes lit up and I didn't say a word, as if I were amazed that "this kind of noodle should only be found in the sky". At that moment, it aroused my yearning for noodles.
The New Year, a time when people gather together, is always filled with joy. And on the afternoon with only a few hours left until the New Year, why not have a bowl of cold noodles? They are chewy and refreshing. Add two spoons of chili oil and some side dishes on top, and the taste is also amazing.
Gansu, a land on the plateau, nurtures such a bold and unrestrained sentiment, inspiring people's spirit of hard work and endurance. It is precisely because of this that such delicious and simple folk customs exist.

As the saying goes, "Customs vary every hundred miles and every thousand miles." What I like best is undoubtedly the custom of setting off firecrackers during the Spring Festival in my hometown.It is said that a long, long time ago, there was a monster called "Nian". On the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, it would go into people's homes to burn, kill, rob and plunder, causing a complete mess. So, people placed wine and meat at the door, had a hearty meal and then left. Later, people successfully scared away the Nian monster by setting off firecrackers, pasting red paper and other activities.
In my hometown, firecrackers are set off every day from the 30th day of the 12th lunar month to the 5th day of the first lunar month. On the afternoon of the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month this year, I came out with great enthusiasm, taking my "stock" and setting off firecrackers. I came to the open space in front of the door. First, I took out the "Jumping Monkey" and fixed it in a specially made bamboo tube, then lit the lead wire. The leaping monkey shot up into the sky like an arrow leaving the bowstring, bursting into the air with colorful sparks. These sparks complemented the countless stars in the sky, creating an exceptionally beautiful scene. Then I began to play my favorite throwing cannon. I grabbed a small handful of throwing firecrackers and threw them out with all my strength. The firecrackers sounded in distinct layers, which was quite enjoyable.
The most interesting thing, of course, is a kind of delayed explosion cannon. My little cousin threw out a lit firecracker. Seeing that it didn't explode, he went to check it out in confusion. To his surprise, just after taking two steps, the firecracker exploded, which scared his cousin a lot and left me at a loss for words. The last ones to be set off were beautiful flower tubes. The brilliant sparks shone on our faces, blending with our laughter and joy, forming a picture of celebration and harmony.
So, New Year's Eve left with a loud laugh, and the New Year came with a loud laugh.

First of all, clean the Windows. Take a rag, then fill a basin with water. Add a little detergent to the water first. After the rag is fully soaked in water, start cleaning the glass. After the first wipe, pour out the water in the basin and add clean water for the second wipe. Cleaning the glass is still very simple.
Secondly, sweeping and mopping the floor. Sweeping the floor is also very simple. Just take a broom and clean up all the dirt on the floor. After sweeping the floor, take a mop soaked in water and mop it again. The dried floor will be as good as new.
Next, wash the curtains. Washing curtains can be a bit troublesome. First, you need to remove the curtains from the fixed frame, take off all the hooks on it, then clean them thoroughly and wait for them to dry. Finally, you have to hang up all the hooks and fix the curtains back to the frame. Only then can it be considered complete.

Everyone's hometown has its own peculiar customs. Me too. The custom of celebrating the New Year in my hometown that impressed me the most was the "dragon dance".The dragon dance is usually held a few days after the Spring Festival. Usually, the village dragon dance team leader will deliver the invitation several days in advance. Inform us when the dragon dance team will come to perform. After receiving the invitation, my parents began to prepare red envelopes, some fruits, incense, candles and firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the dragon dance.
Finally, the day that everyone had been looking forward to arrived. Clang clang, the dragon dance team is approaching us. I was both nervous and excited. From time to time, I would run to the door to see if the dragon dance team had arrived. At this time, Dad placed two long strings of firecrackers at the main gate. Mother set up a table in the yard, placed the prepared fruits on it, and lit incense and red candles. The dragon dance team is getting closer and closer. The timid child ran upstairs and poked his head out of the corridor, waiting to watch the dragon dance. When the dragon dance team reached our doorstep, Dad lit a string of firecrackers. Amid the crackling sounds of firecrackers. Two dragons, one red and one yellow, swayed their bodies and walked into our yard. A large group of people followed behind the team to watch the dragon dance performance.
They first coiled into a circle and then spread out quickly. In their hands, the two dragons came alive and took on all kinds of postures. A few minutes later they stopped to have a rest. The leader of the team took out several small candles from the faucet and gave them to us, saying some blessings. At this time, Dad took out the prepared red envelopes and gave them to them. Mother took some fruits from the small table beside and shared them with them, and also made tea for them. After taking a break for a while, they began to swing their dragon heads and bodies left and right again, and slowly walked out of our yard. At this time, Dad lit another string of firecrackers. Come to see off the dragon dance team as they leave. My mother and I took the small candles they gave back to the room until they burned out.
This is the custom of "dragon dance" during the Spring Festival in our hometown. It left a deep impression on me and is hard to forget!

The Spring Festival is the most grand traditional festival in our country. As the saying goes, "The wind changes every ten miles and the customs vary every hundred miles." Every place has its own customs for celebrating the New Year. In my hometown, during the Spring Festival, people offer sacrifices to their ancestors, make sweet rice cakes, pray to Buddha and ask for fortune-telling sticks, etc. However, the custom that impressed me the most was eating salty pancakes and sugar scallions.Salty pancakes and sugar-coated scallions are a kind of traditional snack in my hometown. It consists of two parts: salted pancakes and sugar Onions. The salty pancake is light yellow in color and made from a mixture of flour, water, Sichuan pepper and other ingredients. It has a slightly spicy taste. Sugar-coated scallions are snow-white with many holes in the middle, resembling multiple scallion holes combined together, hence the name sugar-coated scallions. Its taste is not just sweet. Wrap the sugar-coated scallions with salted pancakes, and you'll have delicious salted pancake sugar-coated scallions! Salty pancakes and sugar-coated scallions only appear during the Spring Festival. If you miss them, you'll have to wait until next year. The twelfth lunar month has arrived, but the Spring Festival has not yet come. On the streets of my hometown, several stalls selling salted pancakes and sugar-coated scallions will appear. The aroma fills the entire street, making people can't help but salivate. Usually, I always hear my parents say that the scene of selling salted pancakes and sugar-coated scallions on the street is a childhood memory they still can't forget.
What exactly does the salty pancake with sugar-coated scallions taste like? Before having tasted it, I was also very curious.
I remember once when I went back to my grandparents' hometown, my uncle happened to buy this snack. The snow-white sugar-coated scallions were tempting my appetite. I couldn't hold back any longer. I picked up a piece and stuffed it directly into my mouth without the salty pancake. The sugar-coated scallions melted in my mouth, passed through my throat and entered my stomach. The sweetness that followed intoxicated me. It was truly sweet to my heart!
"I'll finish all the sugar-coated scallions for you later." " Mother smiled. She then handed me the wrapped salted pancake with sugar-coated scallions. I took a big bite. This time, a kind of glutinous aroma of noodles was added to my mouth. Among the glutinous aroma, there was a hint of sweet and spicy flavor. The taste was indeed good! I couldn't resist eating one more.
Seeing how much I love eating salted pancakes and sugar-coated scallions, since then, every Spring Festival, my mother would buy salted pancakes and sugar-coated scallions for us to taste.
For me, the salted scallion pancake satisfies my craving. Its sweetness is irreplaceable by any other candy. And for some people who have left their hometowns, it is not just a snack, but also a kind of homesickness and a sentiment.
