Spring Festival custom in Dazhu, Sichuan

Now the way of celebrating the New Year is completely different from before. I can only talk about the Chinese New Year when I was a child. The first thing to prepare for the Chinese New Year must be food. In addition to big fish and big meat, there are sausage bacon, crispy meat, lotus root cake, eggplant cake, fried dumplings and so on. The latter is the specialty food of Dazhu. Lotus root cake and eggplant cake are the same. Cut the lotus root or eggplant into original slices, put the chopped meat sauce between the two slices, and then put it into the fried crispy meat. As for the burning circle. . . It seems that my mother can't even do this, so she has to have a good time at someone else's house. . . New Year's Eve is a time for family reunion. Generally, at noon on New Year's Eve, the family will sit together and have a reunion dinner. In the evening, I usually watch the Spring Festival Gala at home and go out to set off firecrackers at twelve o'clock on time. Later, in about 95 years, it was forbidden to set off firecrackers in Zhucheng. Since then, we have never let go of firecrackers and fireworks in the New Year. Eating glutinous rice balls on the morning of New Year's Day and then going to Donghu Park during the day is a reserved project of Zhucheng people. On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I went to visit my grandparents' grave, and from the third day to the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I went to grandma Qinghe's home, which is now Hal's hometown. It has not changed for decades. I go every year, and it's nothing special to go home on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. All relatives take turns to have a reunion dinner until the New Year comes. This is probably the New Year in my childhood memory. Later, with the growth of age, the gameplay is different. I hardly watch the Spring Festival Gala and never go to the park again. I still want to sweep the grave the next day, but I went to my uncle's house immediately after sweeping the grave (grandma has passed away) and then came back the next day. The new year is getting more and more boring.
