Open the door with firecrackers: In the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first thing every household does is to rush to open the door with "open the door." There is also a tradition of "opening the door". Generally, a bunch of small firecrackers are set off first, called "hundred-ton firecrackers." Welcome the new year. It is required that all three rounds sound loud and clear, which is the most auspicious. According to popular belief, the earlier you open the door, the better. It means that whatever you do this year will go smoothly, you will get rich as you wish, and those who farm will have a good harvest. In some places, when opening the door cannon, they also mutter: "Open the door, fire up the cannon; wealth will come, and happiness will come." Generally, the outer and inner skins of firecrackers are uniformly red, and after setting off, the paper flowers are all over the ground, and the lights are bright. Zhongyun brocade formed a hall filled with auspicious colors and full of joy. Firecrackers are now banned in cities and towns, but they are still allowed in rural areas and on fishing islands.

Worship the Six Gods: Open the cannon, and the men and women of each family wear new clothes. The housewife burns Buddhist tea and holds various sacrifices in Jiangxi porcelain bowls and offers them on the incense table. Images of ancestors are hung in the middle hall. We worship the ancestors first and then the six gods (the Kitchen God, the Eaves God, the White Tiger God, the Well God, the Earth God, and the God of Wealth). Folks believe that these six gods are the protectors of every family. When worshiped during the New Year, they mainly pray for the safety of the population throughout the year and the prosperity of the family business.

Receive the three gods: After worshiping the six gods, set up a small square table in the atrium, hold a bowl of rice, cover it with red paper, glue it around, put it on the table, burn incense and candles, and worship devoutly. It is called "receiving the three gods" (i.e. Yuqing, Shangqing and Taiqing in Taoism). After the sacrifice, it is moved indoors and it is not until the fourth day of the first lunar month that the gods are sent away and removed from their seats.

Ancestor worship: In the old days, at noon on the first day of the first lunar month, every family in Dongtou County would worship their ancestors. Its ceremony is performed by the housewife. List the offerings first, arrange the wine cups and chopsticks, and pour rice wine into the wine pot. A bench should be placed between the shrine and the altar, and then red candles should be lit, and incense should be burned on the incense burners of all the shrines of the ancestors, the three official emperors, the earth god, and the kitchen god. When the red candle has burned about three-quarters or the incense is about to be burned, start burning "gold paper" (a kind of paper money with gold foil folded into the shape of an ingot, which is effective only after chanting sutras according to popular belief) and set off firecrackers. Finally, when the food is removed, the chairs in front of the serving table must be moved before removing the food. When worshiping ancestors, the gifts on the table are not allowed to be touched; all offerings after worship, except cakes and fruits, must be cooked again or heated with steam before they can be eaten. Otherwise, it is considered disrespectful to the gods and ancestors.

Walking incense: Early in the morning on the first day of the first lunar month, there is an old custom of "walking incense". Civil and military officials from all over the city, with their hats and chariots, and all deacons, sounded gongs to clear the way, and went to various temples to offer incense. They were very majestic. The elderly and heads of each family had bathed and changed clothes before dawn, and rushed to the shrine or nearby temple first. They open the temple door, burn incense and light incense lamps. Some even stay up and wait in the temple on New Year's Eve. As soon as the Hai hour is over, burn incense quickly to show your piety. It is believed that the first person to light incense is the most auspicious, so there is a custom of competing to light the first pair of candles. As the saying goes: "Whoever opens the temple door first will definitely make a lot of money this year." Elderly people go to various temples to worship the temple gods, mainly praying for good luck in the new year and safety for the whole family. However, due to differences in class, industry, gender, age, etc., there is an endless stream of people who come to worship God. Some want to make a fortune in business, some want a good agricultural harvest, some want children and heirs, etc. In larger temples such as the Dongouwang Temple, worshipers will wish red envelopes to the temple if their prayers are successful. Those who are rich on the first day of each year will use large candles weighing more than a hundred kilograms to fulfill their wishes.

Kaizheng: In the old days on Dongtou Island, every household would hold a "Kaizheng" ceremony around the time of the 30th night of the New Year's Eve. It is hosted by the elder of the family or the person in charge of production and life in the family. The presiding officer must "purify" (that is, abstain from sex on New Year's Eve) and bathe the whole body, and must not touch filthy objects before "correcting". The desk is placed at the entrance or in the courtyard, and two benches should be placed on the table legs to raise the height of the desk. The offerings include three kinds of animals, fish, fruits, pastries, plain noodles, etc. There are a pair of large red candles with a length of feet on both sides, commonly known as "all-nighters". During the "Kai Zheng" ceremony, the presiding officer lights the "all-nighter" and burns three pillars of incense. After that, the whole family kneels down, puts their palms together and asks the sky, performs a sincere prayer, and prays for God's blessings to bless the whole family with peace, wealth, and all the best in the new year. After praying, the whole family stands in silence for a while, then burns "gold paper" and sets off firecrackers. Final meal. Since the 1980s, the "opening" time has been advanced to midnight, accompanied by the New Year's bell ringing on CCTV. The ceremony is also much simpler, some just blow off firecrackers and set off fireworks.

But there were so many firecrackers being set off, especially the "Hundred-Size Firecrackers", even thousands of them strung together, the sound was loud, it lasted for a long time, and it was extremely lively.

Worshiping tea: On the morning of the first day of the first lunar month, there is still a custom called worshiping tea on Dongtou Island. During the worship of tea, red dates, longan, rice cakes, etc. are boiled into sweet tea, which is called "red date tea". Its auspicious meaning is: red dates - days become more and more prosperous, longan - family reunion, safety and success, rice cake - climbing higher step by step. "Tea worship" is divided into two parts: one is worshiping ancestors, filling small bowls and offering them in front of the statue of the Kitchen God; the other is worshiping the Kitchen God, which involves burning incense, candles, gold paper and setting off firecrackers. After worshiping tea, each member of the family holds a bowl to drink. Since the first meal of the New Year is to eat soup, in the following days, if they go out or work at home, and are hampered by rain, people will laugh at themselves by saying "you eat soup on the first day of the first lunar month." After drinking tea, noodles are cooked and eaten, commonly known as "longevity noodles". It is not only for good luck and wishes the whole family a long life, but also because tea is not enough, it is used as a supplement to eat, killing two birds with one stone.

Breakfast: For breakfast on the first day of the first lunar month, Wenzhou people like to eat Song Gao (a sweet steamed rice cake). When eating, cut the sponge cake into thin slices, and then cut the fat in the soy sauce meat into thin slices and embed it between the two sponge cakes. It tastes sweet and salty, and has a unique flavor. They also eat rice dumplings, or boil a bowl of vermicelli with a hard-boiled egg on top. These foods all contain the symbolic meaning of "higher years" and "reunion". Some people cook New Year's rice together with mashed cakes and sponge cakes. In Pingyang, people eat rice cakes and glutinous rice balls, and some drink brown sugar soup first, then add noodles and eggs; in Taishun, housewives make sugar tea, steam sugar cakes, and serve cabbage (salted radish) to the whole family. good". But in the Yandang area of ??Yueqing, people eat rice dumplings. On New Year's Eve, each family will cook a pot of rice dumplings and eat them when they get up early on the first day of the year. It is said that eating Zongzi has two meanings. One is because Zongzi has the same pronunciation as "Zong", which means remembering the ancestors; the other is because Zongzi has the same pronunciation as "Zhong", which means winning the title of fame. In Yueqing, most people use red dates, persimmons, and glutinous rice balls. In Baishi Town, Yueqing, people eat soup dumplings, glutinous rice dumplings, and Zhuangyuan cake for dinner on the first day of the new year. When falling asleep, place your shoes in front of the bed to pray for blessings from heaven. During the Spring Festival in urban areas, guests have the custom of offering Yuanbao tea, that is, putting two fresh olives in the tea. Not only does the tea taste fragrant, but when you see olives floating in the yellow-green tea soup, they look like Yuanbao. It is commonly known as "Yuanbao tea". Contains the blessings of good luck and wealth in the new year. Desserts include round-eye meat, lotus seeds, and red dates, as well as meatballs, eggs and vermicelli.

New Year greetings: On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, first at home, the younger generation kowtows and salutes to their elders in order, which is called "New Year greetings". From the second day of the Lunar New Year, neighbors, relatives and friends go back and forth to pay homage to each other. If we meet on the road, we will bow to each other and say hello (now we nod and shake hands to say hello), and we will also put our hands together and say "New Year's greetings" to each other. People visit each other's homes to wish each other good luck, which is also called "New Year's greetings" and "New Year's greetings." First, the younger generation goes out to their elders' homes to pay New Year greetings, and then the older generation returns to pay their respects, which is called "Hui Nian". When newlyweds visit their parents-in-law's house for the first time to pay New Year's greetings, they say "Worship the first year", and when descendants go to the funeral home to pay New Year's greetings they say "Worship the New Year."
