What is the most memorable thing about the Spring Festival in your childhood?

When I was a child and lived in a rural area, I felt that the Spring Festival was the most anticipated festival for children. Every Spring Festival, my parents would buy me a new set of clothes. This new set of clothes would only be worn on the first day of the Lunar New Year when I paid New Year’s greetings. Wear it on your body, and you will definitely take it off as soon as you get home, leaving it until the beginning of the new semester to wear the new clothes again. This was also the only remaining vanity among the children at that time, and it was also the thing that impressed me the most.

During the Chinese New Year, my father would also buy himself two firecrackers. But at that time, we would not light the firecrackers all at once. Instead, we would take apart the firecrackers and hold an incense stick in our hands. It feels really good to walk around with scattered firecrackers in your pocket. Only children living in rural areas can experience this kind of fun, and they had very little New Year's money when they were young.

Parents will basically not give 10 yuan each to grandparents, and the 10 yuan will eventually be forcibly taken into their own pockets by the parents, and what they say is that they are saving it for us. , To this day, I have never seen what the New Year's money looked like when I was a child. My family's conditions were not good when I was a child, and my parents were also very frugal. They could hardly afford a meal of meat all year round. They only gave it during New Years and holidays. Go to the town and buy some pork.

So when I was a child, my biggest hope was that other people would get married and have children. Because of such a happy event, the children would go there early and have a delicious meal. So think about the fact that living conditions are getting better and better now. In the past, a meal of rice was a luxury staple food, but now children are very tired of eating big fish and meat every day. It is precisely thanks to the country's good policies and welfare that each of our families can live a well-off level, so we should cherish our current life.
