Write an article about the custom of Spring Festival in your hometown.

Talk about the custom of Chinese New Year in my hometown. Our hometown belongs to Longdong area in Gansu province. We call this period of China New Year "the twelfth lunar month". This shows that since the twelfth lunar month, we have entered the new year. On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, commonly known as "the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month", people cook millet into porridge in the morning, and besides eating it, they have to draw some on the door of their home, which is called "Laba porridge". On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, I cleaned the house, cut out window grilles, put up New Year pictures, and burned incense for "Jujube Master" at night. First, arrange the candy, and then take down the portrait of "Jujube" (there is a "Jujube" in the rural kitchen), burn it with the incense table, kowtow and ignite, which means to send Jujube to heaven, hoping that Jujube will "speak well in heaven and return to the palace will be lucky". December 30th, December 29th is busier. Spring Festival couplets will be posted during the day to prepare new year's goods. At dusk, the whole family will carry incense trays to the crossroads or outside the door to burn incense and pray for the dead three generations of relatives, which is called "receiving paper". Then set dishes on the table in the main room, burn incense and light candles, and some even display genealogy, indicating that they invite their ancestors to spend the holidays together. After "receiving paper", go to the stove to burn incense and light candles, shoot and kowtow, which means that the "kitchen owner" who sent the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month to heaven should come back. At night, the whole family is busy together and doesn't go to bed until dawn, which is commonly known as "sitting at night" (sometimes called sitting on paper). The first day of the first month is the Spring Festival, commonly known as the Chinese New Year, which is the most joyful and grand day of the year. At dawn, every household began to set off firecrackers and open the door to "welcome the Western gods". Men, women and children put on new clothes, burn incense and kowtow to their ancestors first, then the elders sit on the heatable adobe sleeping platform and the descendants bow down in turn, which is called "New Year greetings". During the "Happy New Year" period, elders should give their children lucky money. Jiaozi is usually eaten for breakfast on the first day of junior high school (some eat pork bones and meat), which is more lively after dinner. The whole village, men, women and children, catch up with animals to burn incense and watch, set off firecrackers and pray for happiness in the coming year. This is called "innovation". Go home after "new" On the second day of the second lunar month, relatives and friends visit each other to pay New Year greetings, and married and unmarried young people will also visit their parents-in-law with gifts. This is the so-called "husband transfer". On the afternoon of the third day, adults go to ancestral graves to pay homage to their ancestors, which is called "paper feeding". Eating "stirring balls" (local specialty pasta) in the afternoon of the fifth day, commonly known as "pestering five poor people", means driving away poverty. The seventh day of the seventh lunar month is called "the seven days of man", and people are used to divining people's health diseases with the sunny and cloudy weather that day. The eighth day of August is called "the eighth day". It is said that the weather on this day can herald a bumper harvest next year. There will be operas in the first month, and the hometown is called "social fire". As for the custom of the fifteenth day of the first month, it is similar everywhere. After the fifteenth day of the first month, the year is over.
