Do you pay attention to the time of the new year?

1, worship family members

On the morning of the first day, after getting up, the younger generation should first pay a New Year call to their elders, wishing them a long and healthy life and all the best. After the elders worship, they should distribute the "lucky money" prepared in advance to the younger generation.

Step 2 visit relatives and friends

Be sure to go to your parents-in-law's house and bring gifts on the first or second day. After entering the door, first bow down to the ancestors' statues and tablets, and then bow down to the elders in turn. You can stay to eat, play, discuss and so on.

3. Courtesy visit

If you want to pay a New Year call to your friends, you just have to bow as soon as you enter the room. If you are older than yourself, you should still take the initiative to bow your head. The host will step down from his seat to help him, even saying that he is not formal to show humility. This kind of situation is generally not suitable for sedentary, and you will leave after a few pleasantries. After the host worships, he should pay a return visit another day.

4. Thank you for your visit

Anyone who owes money to others (such as lawyers and doctors) in the past year will buy some gifts and send them to express their gratitude by taking the opportunity to pay a New Year call.

5. Go door to door

For our neighbors, we didn't have much contact in the past, but we all got along well when we met. On New Year's Eve, we just went to the yard and said "Congratulations on getting rich" and "Shun Shun Bai Shun" when we met. We just sit in the house for a while, without much etiquette.

New Year greeting is a traditional folk custom in China, and it is a way for people to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, and express their best wishes to each other. In ancient times, the original meaning of the word "Happy New Year" was to pay New Year greetings to the elderly, including kowtowing to the elderly, congratulating them on a happy New Year and greeting their lives. In case of friends and relatives of the same generation, you should also salute and congratulate.

With the development of the times, the custom of New Year greetings is constantly adding new contents and forms. In addition to following the previous New Year greetings, etiquette telegrams, telephone calls, short messages and online New Year greetings also came into being.

Generally speaking, the time to pay New Year greetings is from the first day to the fifth day. Visiting relatives and friends after the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is a memorial to the early years, and visiting relatives and friends before the fifteenth day after the fifth day of the first month is a memorial to the old age. Early old age belongs to the nature of emergency or remedy to avoid regret. There is a folk proverb: it is not too late to celebrate the New Year with a heart.
