What are the Chinese New Year customs at all times and in all countries?

There are more customs in the north than in the south, such as jiaozi and stick grilles. Various patterns symbolize good luck in the coming year, including the wearing and exquisiteness of some zodiac signs.

Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the dietary customs of New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are obviously different in the north and south. On New Year's Eve in the north, jiaozi eats more, which means "making friends when young" in homophonic. Some put sugar in jiaozi to pray for a sweeter life in the coming year; Others wrap a coin in jiaozi, and whoever eats it will make a fortune in the new year. On New Year's Eve in the south, people usually eat Yuanxiao and rice cakes. Yuanxiao is also called "Tangyuan", "Tuanzi" and "Zi Yuan", with a lot of sugar in the middle, which means a happy and sweet family reunion. The rice cake is made of glutinous rice, which is homophonic "high every year". Until today, the custom of including jiaozi in the north and south is still very common.

Eating rice cakes, jiaozi and glutinous rice balls during the Spring Festival is one of the customs of China people. Because of its homophonic "high year", rice cakes are rising year by year. In addition, they have a variety of tastes, which are especially popular with the citizens in Hangjiahu area, and the market space is very large. Tangyuan, which means round and round, is a traditional food for the Spring Festival. Eating jiaozi in the New Year is influenced by the Chinese New Year custom in the north, but complicated procedures such as mixing flour, chopping stuffing and rolling skin are prohibitive, so quick-frozen jiaozi has become a big selling point in supermarkets.

Perhaps it is necessary to pay more attention to the custom of celebrating the New Year in the north. Although we have bid farewell to the era of having fun in potholes, traditionally there seems to be no large-scale improvement. During this period, the women at home are always the busiest, especially because it is New Year's Eve. The first thing to do in the morning is to prepare new year's goods, cook chicken, chop meat, fish scales, peel shrimps, cut vegetables, mix noodles, make jiaozi, and get familiar with everything. Almost all families in the north are "big families", and the biggest ones are not wealth, but people, so eating has become a very serious problem since last year: no table is big enough to accommodate more than a dozen people. So the women in the family have to make some sacrifices-wait for the second meal. The battlefield after the table war will eventually fall on these "backward troops" to clean up. And the New Year's Eve dinner is always eaten earlier than usual, because there is still room to fill the first meal on New Year's Day-jiaozi. There is no doubt that this delicious meal will also be hosted by a good wife and mother at home. This is not a tradition that men are superior to women, but a form, and no one will complain.

The highlight of New Year's Eve is 8: 00 pm, and the whole family will seize the time to look forward to the start of the Spring Festival Gala. However, five hours later, people will pour out their opinions again. This seems to have become a routine, and they always put forward some opinions on the celebration under this arrangement. I will not remain silent. After all, I shut the door myself, gossip at home, don't talk about elegance and vulgarity, and don't worry about revealing any secrets.

The first day of 2008 15 really focused on this day, and the streets on New Year's Day were just deserted. Northerners who are not good at staying up late always feel particularly tired on this day. So at the party, there will be several times more people lying down than usual. Of course, such courtesy belongs only to men and children. The woman has to rehearse the familiar routine again like yesterday, and the day is over.

On the second day of New Year's Day, I also got a tip at this time. It's almost time to have a rest. I had to change my family when I opened my eyes again.
