On February 9, a short ** attracted widespread attention on social platforms. **In China, a pair of brothers in Hebei kowtowed to their grandfather for the New Year, and the kowtow sounded, but the pot at home was scrapped! This scene makes people laugh, and at the same time, it also evokes everyone's memories and discussions about traditional culture.
It is understood that the brothers have always been very respectful of traditional culture, especially the custom of New Year's greetings. They believe that kowtowing to elders is not only a ritual, but also a way to express their respect and love for their elders. Therefore, every year during the Spring Festival, they will kowtow to their grandfather to show their filial piety.
However, this year's New Year's greetings were unexpected. When the brothers kowtowed, due to excessive force, the kowtow sounded loudly, and as a result, the basin placed aside was "knocked" broken! Grandpa was taken aback by this sudden "surprise", and hurriedly took out the New Year's money and handed it to the brothers, hoping that they would be safe and auspicious.
After this ** was uploaded to the Internet, it quickly sparked heated discussions among netizens. Some people said that the two brothers are so cute, and they can "knock" the pot to scrap when they kowtow to the New Year, which shows their sincerity and filial piety. Some people also lamented that traditional culture has gradually faded out of modern society, and there are fewer and fewer young people who respect traditional customs like this, and the brothers' behavior is worthy of praise.
In fact, the traditional custom of kowtowing has been practiced in China for thousands of years. It originated from ancient sacrificial ceremonies, and later gradually evolved into a folk way of greeting the New Year. Kowtowing to the New Year is not only a respect and blessing for the elders, but also a way to inherit the spirit of filial piety of the Chinese nation. In modern society, although many young people no longer kowtow to the New Year, this traditional custom is still preserved and passed down in some places.
It is worth mentioning that with the development of the times, the custom of kowtowing to the New Year is constantly evolving and changing. For example, in some places, people no longer kowtow to the New Year, but instead bow or shake hands to express respect and blessings to their elders. Although these changes have changed the form of traditional customs, their inherent spirit and values have been passed on and promoted.
Returning to the story of the Hebei brothers, we can't help but ask: in this fast-paced modern society, should we still preserve and inherit these traditional customs? The answer is yes. Because traditional customs are not only an important part of our national culture, but also the foundation and source of our national spirit. If we lose these traditional customs, it is like losing our own cultural roots, without our own characteristics and heritage.
Of course, passing on traditional customs doesn't mean that we have to stick to the rules and hold on to the inadequate. On the contrary, on the basis of retaining traditional customs, we should innovate and develop them in combination with the actual situation and needs of modern society. For example, we can inherit and promote traditional culture through modern scientific and technological means; We can also hold various cultural activities and competitions to let more people understand and participate in the inheritance and development of traditional culture.
In short, although the incident of the Hebei brothers kowtowing to the New Year and scrapping the pot seems to be a trivial matter, it has triggered our deep thinking and discussion on traditional culture. In this fast-paced modern society, we should cherish and inherit our traditional culture more, so that it will shine more brilliantly in the context of the new era! At the same time, we should also encourage more young people to understand and participate in the inheritance and development of traditional culture, so that traditional culture can become a bridge and link connecting the past, present and future!
Let's praise this pair of Hebei brothers together! They use their actions to interpret what is true filial piety and the spirit of respecting traditional culture! At the same time, we also hope that more people can join the team of traditional culture inheritance and development, and jointly inject new vitality and impetus into our national culture!
