A 1,000-word essay about the Spring Festival in my hometown

I am the happiest during the Chinese New Year, because every time during the Chinese New Year, I will collect I got a lot of big red envelopes and a lot of delicious food, which makes me feel happy just thinking about it.

But this year is different, because pneumonia is very serious now, so we can’t go to other people’s homes to pay New Year greetings, so we naturally receive a lot less red envelopes. But life is more important than money. Although we can only celebrate the New Year at home this year, it is still full of fun.

A few days before the Chinese New Year, we bought various decorative things. There are Spring Festival couplets, red lanterns and so on. I moved a small stool, stepped on the stool, and posted Spring Festival couplets. The younger sister was picked up by her father and hung up a lantern. My mother, grandma, and aunts are responsible for cleaning the house. Some of them sweep the floor; some wipe things; and some mop the floor. The whole family is enjoying themselves. Uncle and grandpa are responsible for moving the large furniture at home to the balcony to bask in the sun and put it away. Stools, tables! Move outside for cleaning. Very busy.

On New Year’s Eve, our family celebrates the New Year. In the afternoon, I put on my new shoes. After putting on my new shoes, I walked carefully for fear of getting them dirty. Finally it's time for dinner. I couldn't contain my excitement. There are 16 bowls of fish, longevity noodles, glutinous rice balls, hot pot, chicken, duck, sweet and sour pork ribs, turtle... on the dinner table. I had a feast, and the exciting moment came when I had dinner and gave out red envelopes. When the parents gave me the money, I stood aside and counted it alone. After counting, I brought it as usual, and my parents’ mobile phones started to help them grab red envelopes. Grabbing red envelopes is also a technical job, it will test your hand speed. But I don’t know why, but I’m always the first to grab it. So my parents struggled to get me to come, and they grabbed red envelopes. Then during the Spring Festival Gala, there will be a segment of clearing the shopping cart, but this year’s segment is not as fun as last year. After mom, dad, grandparents, uncles and aunts all finished eating, they played old K cards. Then grandpa asked me for change, and I gave him one fifty yuan, two ten yuan, and two five yuan. The total was eighty yuan, and then my grandpa exchanged it with me for a red pass. I felt happy and thought to myself: This deal is worth it. At three or four in the morning, we went back to our rooms to sleep. The next day we all slept until the afternoon before getting up. After getting up, I had lunch and then sat on the sofa and watched TV. After watching dinner, we all went back to the room to go to sleep. These boring days are like this day after day. Storage at home The food in the supermarket was running out, so my dad and my mom went out to buy food. When they came back, they said they had to take your temperature before entering the supermarket. If you don’t wear a mask, you can’t go in. They bought a lot of things, including potato chips. , milk tea, fried rice bread, pancakes, dried tofu, jelly, chicken feet, ham sausage, chicken wings, lollipops, plums, and many more delicious foods. but. We fucked most of them on the first day after buying them. The epidemic is getting more and more serious now, and we don’t dare to go out anymore. I also have a little sister at home. She is my uncle's daughter. She is only two years old. She is more playful by nature. So she always wants to go out to play, and she will cry if you don't take her out. The uncle and aunt thought of various ways to deceive her. For example, there is a big monster outside. If you go out, you will be eaten. Because she was so young, it was easy for her to believe it. Now look out the window. There are very few people walking on the main road. They probably all stay at home. I think if this disease is cured. There will definitely be a lot of people running out impatiently. Breathe the fresh air and enjoy being bathed in the sun.

I hope this disease will pass soon. to this disease. Although. Although the Spring Festival holiday has been extended, the Education Bureau has said that "study will not stop even if classes are suspended." A website for studying at home has been opened. Let us not stay at home in vain, let us have something to do. I have never studied online, so I am still looking forward to online learning.

This is really a different Spring Festival.

Part 2: A 1,000-word essay on Spring Festival experiences in my hometown

My mother’s hometown is Zhongxiang, so Zhongxiang can be regarded as my other hometown.

According to Zhong Xiang, the Spring Festival is called celebrating the big year, while the Lantern Festival is called celebrating the small year.

To talk about the atmosphere of the New Year, you may not feel it in urban areas. If you want to truly experience it, you have to go to the countryside and fields to appreciate the preserved authentic flavor of the New Year.

Compared to the city, the New Year here seems to be more anxious: as soon as we enter the twelfth lunar month, we can hear the sound of pig killing every now and then. Pig-killers are invited by the villagers with a little cigarette and money. They usually make a living by doing this. The villagers call them "pig-killers". "Pig Killer" usually consists of three to four people, bringing their own tools and a big bucket. As soon as the twelfth lunar month arrives, they go from house to house to help people kill pigs.

On the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, the atmosphere of celebrating the New Year becomes even stronger. Although it is the coldest time of the year, spring will soon come, so people do not reduce their enthusiasm for celebrating the new year and welcoming the spring because of the cold.

After entering the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, people began to prepare New Year’s goods in full swing. Food is of course the most important thing. Necessary dishes for the Spring Festival, such as dragon vegetables, fish, steamed meat, sausages, etc. are all indispensable; of course, there are also fruits: navel oranges, apples, tangerines... there are countless more; one worth mentioning is Zhong Xiang's Traditional snacks: Jiaojie (sesame candy), halva, golden nuts... On New Year's Eve, relatives and friends gather together, and the host takes out these, which makes the children's mouths water!

Starting from the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, there will be more stalls on the street - those selling New Year paintings, selling sacrificial supplies, etc. will only come out at this time.

On the 25th and 6th of the twelfth lunar month, it’s time to fry peanuts and broad beans. It needs to be fried with dry river sand, but it is forbidden to do this between the 27th and 29th. There is a folk saying: "If you are not frying on the 7th, don't make trouble on the 8th, if you are frying on the 9th, you will provoke the robbers."

Twenty-seven and twenty-eight is the time to make steamed buns and bean sprouts. The so-called buns are not buns in the ordinary sense. They have no fillings. To put it bluntly, they are "the appearance of a bun, but the inside of a steamed bun." The craftsmanship of bean sprouts is too complicated, and now people basically buy them ready-made.

At twenty-nine, the elders in the family no longer prepare, waiting for the children who are struggling outside to return home to the harbor.

On New Year's Eve, adults will go to the graves of their ancestors to burn a few sticks of incense, put a few whips, and visit the graves to express their memory for their ancestors. Grandma often tells my brother and me that this is a way to invite our ancestors to celebrate the New Year. But now for the sake of low-carbon and environmental protection, fewer firecrackers are set off.

In the afternoon, when preparing for the New Year’s Eve dinner, it was warm and peaceful. The women are preparing a feast in the kitchen, while the men are posting Spring Festival couplets, and the children are sitting on the sofa in front of the heater, eating, drinking, laughing and making noise. What a great time!

The red candles and incense are lit! The leader was burning paper money and mumbling something. After setting off the firecrackers, you can start feasting. That night, no one slept except for very young children, who had to keep up the New Year's Eve.

New Year greetings begin on the first day of the first lunar month. Zhong Xiang has a saying that "you pay homage to your parents on the first day of the lunar month, and visit your mother-in-law on the second day of the lunar month." After the third day of the Lunar New Year, New Year greetings are given in sequence according to the distance of relatives. Of course, this is the time for children to get excited, because their red envelopes are inevitable for adults.

The Lantern Festival is a small year for the people of Zhongxiang, and it is another climax of the New Year. There will be many fireworks feasts on this day, as well as lantern viewing, lantern riddle guessing, dragon dancing and other programs. People are jostling shoulder to shoulder on the streets, and the streets, no matter how deserted they used to be, are still busy with traffic. People are all immersed in the joy of the festival.

In the blink of an eye, we arrived at Candengmo Temple, students returned to school one after another, and adults went back to business as usual. "The plan for a year lies in spring." The festive New Year goes hand in hand with the spring girl. In the new year, in the fiery red "blessing", in the green buds, it blooms beautifully...

A 1,000-word essay on the Spring Festival in my hometown

Seven days of the Spring Festival The vacation flies by so fast and we are on the way back again. Looking back on this Spring Festival, it is really different from previous years.

Let’s talk about the New Year’s Eve dinner. In previous years, it was chicken, duck, fish, meat... everything was complete, and every plate was filled to the brim. There is also an old tradition, which says that the New Year's Eve dinner should not be eaten all, but some should be left over, which means "more than enough every year." In the past, the New Year’s Eve dinners in my memory were all based on old traditions. However, on New Year's Eve this year, my grandfather announced to everyone: "Recently, the country has advocated strict economy, and our family must keep pace with the times. We will ask for CDs for New Year's Eve dinner." I applauded my grandfather's decision at the time, but there was another I have some doubts. Grandpa is a very traditional person. If he eats all the food, it will lose its good meaning. Grandpa’s words dispelled my doubts. He said, “Every year is more than enough. I have always had misunderstandings in the past.

In fact, only by being frugal can you have plenty. If you keep having leftovers every day for a year, and if they accumulate over time, there will be no surplus, only emptiness, and you will not be able to have a good life in the future. "Yes, only through small frugality accumulated over time can one achieve great wealth. This is grandpa's new definition of "more than enough every year."

Grandpa's call won the favor of the whole family. Respond positively.

As the chef of the New Year’s Eve dinner, my mother also took a new approach and asked everyone to submit the name of the dish in advance. Well, after collecting the dishes, the variety of dishes has been greatly reduced, and it not only allows everyone to eat delicious meals, but also reduces unnecessary waste. My mother has contributed a lot to the implementation of our Spring Festival CD operation. .

Not only the New Year’s Eve dinner, but also visiting relatives during the Spring Festival, preparing a delicious meal for the guests requires careful preparation and a lot of thought. In previous years, relatives would prepare a large table of meals, as if this was the only way to show hospitality. This year, the dining table seems to have become slimmer. It is not as full of meat and fish as before. Delicacy and moderation seem to be the norm in all families. The standard of the banquet. Friends and relatives also praised the CD banquet. I didn’t expect that a small member of our family could implement the initiative of “anti-waste and practice economy”. The family should have a different Spring Festival like my family. A Spring Festival where we are proud of being diligent and frugal. I also remind myself that I should be more frugal in my daily life and carry out the CD to the end!
