Tai 'an people have special customs during the Spring Festival.

Spring Festival: the first day of the first lunar month. It's the day when chickens crow. Put on new clothes and open the door to see God. Jiaozi or dried noodles for breakfast, and Yuanxiao in a few places. Every family in Xinxian boiled eggs, called Yuanbao. After dinner, it takes a long time to say hello to neighbors and celebrate the New Year. The peak period is from the first day to the fifteenth day, after sixteen it is called old age, and it ends on the second day of February. The order of New Year greetings is that elders precede their peers. Folk people have the habit of "uncle", "uncle" and "uncle". After the fourth day of junior high school, underage relatives and friends pay New Year greetings to each other. On the third day in the south of Xinxian County, we only pay New Year greetings to our parents-in-law, not to other families. Relatives should bring gifts such as tobacco, alcohol and candy when visiting the New Year. After the New Year's greeting guests arrive, the host cooks a bowl of poached eggs to entertain them, or eats Yuanxiao around the fifteenth day of the first month and gives a banquet at noon. The new son-in-law pays New Year's greetings with generous gifts, and the father-in-law gives a big banquet, and the dishes are "with Jackie Chan". Children and grandchildren must give their elders lucky money when they pay New Year greetings. ? After the founding of People's Republic of China (PRC), New Year greetings have changed. Many old habits remain in the countryside. Colleagues in urban institutions say "Happy New Year" when they go home, entertain each other with cigarettes, fruits and melon seeds, and simply say hello and leave. In recent years, large-scale collective worship activities have been organized to avoid unnecessary complexity. ?
