What is Xiao Nian?
Xiao Nian, a traditional Chinese festival, is also known as the "Jiaonian Festival", the "Stove God Festival", the "Sacrificial Stove Festival" and so on. The folk activities of the young year mainly include dust sweeping and sacrificial stoves. China is a vast country, and the customs of different places are very different, and the days called "Xiao Nian" are not the same due to the different customs in different places. Most areas in southern China regard the 24th lunar month as the "small year", and most areas in northern China regard the 23rd lunar month as the "small year".
The custom of the young year
Sacrificial stove
Folk sacrificial stove, originated from the ancient people's custom of worshiping fire, sacrificial stove has a history of thousands of years in Chinese folk, is a reflection of the Chinese people's dream of "having more food and clothing". The Mongolian people regard fire as a symbol of sacredness, life, strength and prosperity, and fire is the protector of life, family and nation. People pray for prosperity and good weather in the coming year, fertile pastures, prosperity and happiness and health of the five animals through fire festivals.
Cleaning
The cleaning is a series of major cleaning operations carried out before the Chinese New Year to welcome the auspiciousness of the New Year. The purpose of dust sweeping is to clean the environment, clean the inside and outside of the home, and leave no dead corners. At the same time, the cleaning is also the beginning of people's preparations for the New Year, and the home environment has a new atmosphere, which is also to welcome the good luck and auspiciousness brought by the New Year.
Write couplets
One of the festival customs of the New Year is to write couplets, which is one of the important festival activities during the New Year. Sticking couplets can express good wishes and blessings. The Spring Festival couplets pasted on the door have a special meaning, which entrusts the family's hope for the long-term inheritance of the family, and also symbolizes good wishes and expectations for the future. The way of pasting Spring Festival couplets also reflects people's inheritance and promotion of traditional culture.
Make New Year's buns
In many places, there is a custom of making New Year's buns during the Spring Festival, and we usually have two common methods: steaming and frying.
The fried pasta commonly found in the local area of Ayouqi mainly includes twist flowers and oil fruits, which are soft and sweet in taste after being fried. Suoyang oil fruit is one of the characteristic pastries of Ayouqi, the color of the fried Suoyang oil fruit is caramel color, the taste is unique, slightly astringent and sweet, and the aftertaste is long. The production of brightly colored and exquisitely shaped noodle food shows the ingenuity and creative imagination of simple and kind women. They create delicious works of art that enrich people's tables and express their love for family and life.
Shower haircuts
Bathing and haircutting is an important activity during the Spring Festival, representing the arrival of the new year and welcoming new beginnings. In addition to a new look at home, every family member should take a bath and get a haircut to start a good year of good luck and success. This custom has been passed down for hundreds of years and represents people's expectations for good fortune and happiness.
What does Xiao Nian eat?
Eating rice cakes in the south is homophonic to "high every year", implying that people's work and life are improving year by year.
In the north, dumplings are inseparable from every important festival, and eating dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve is an eternal custom. Eating dumplings in the new year means to see off the king of the stove, which means "sending off the dumplings to the wind". Eating dumplings symbolizes saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, hoping that life will be full of beauty in the new year.
Today's "Little Year" is getting stronger
The year is over, and the return date is near
All things are beautiful, and the age is amiable
Every year in the world, everything you want is what you want.
May every year be good and all the years safe!
Happy New Year to all!
