How has your life changed during the Spring Festival ten years ago and ten years later?

"On the first day of the lunar month, thousands of households always exchange new peaches for old charms." The Chinese New Year is a day to get rid of the old and introduce the new. The Chinese New Year is the most solemn festival of the Chinese people. In my memory, the forms of Chinese New Year are constantly changing, and the feelings of Chinese New Year are different. So today let us talk about the Spring Festival ten years ago and ten years later. How has your life changed?

1. It’s not as lively as before

In the past, groups used to play with various firecrackers during the New Year, and mobile phones were not so attractive at that time. We hadn't grown up yet. Nowadays, everyone has grown up during the Chinese New Year. Those who are married and have families are all silent. When the Chinese New Year comes home, they either play mahjong or play cards. Fireworks and firecrackers cannot be set off, and there are not as many friends as there were before. I spend the whole day holding my cell phone.

2. Set off firecrackers

In the past, whenever the New Year was celebrated, there would always be explosions of firecrackers on the streets. I took out the New Year's money given by adults and ran to the canteen to ask the boss for a few boxes. In our childhood, we often sold flying monkeys, black spiders and sand cannons. Setting off firecrackers can be said to be the most important New Year entertainment in the past. Everyone would compare whose firecrackers exploded louder and were thrown higher. However, in recent years, due to safety issues and children becoming less and less fond of going out to play, people who set off firecrackers have gradually become less popular. Less.

3. Let’s play game consoles together

Small Overlord was the most popular game console back then. The Chinese New Year has also become short-lived. Adults do not limit our time to play games. A group of children gather together, and even just watching others play is thrilling enough. I’m afraid today’s post-00 generation don’t even know what Little Overlord is, right?

4. Green plants and flowers are popular

Golden oranges, fiery red ornamental cherries, chayote with different postures, delicate wintersweet, and various auspicious fortune-making symbols Tree, lucky bamboo, safe tree, smooth sailing, good luck, etc. are the most popular green plants and flowers during the Spring Festival. Whether it is a city or a country, I don't know since when, adding a few pots of green plants and flowers to the home during the Spring Festival has become a must-have "New Year's gift". These green plants and flowers are very popular both from the perspective of viewing and from the perspective of meaning. Walking into ordinary people's homes shows that their lives have really gotten better.
