New Year's Day, it is said that it began more than 5,000 years ago one of the three emperors and five emperors, Zhuanxu, who is the grandson of the Yellow Emperor, one of the five emperors, is the emperor in charge of the north, also known as the Black Emperor or Emperor Xuan.

In the records of the historical books that can be found today, the word "New Year's Day" first appeared in the "Book of Jin". There is such a record in it: Zhuan Xuan takes the first month of Mengxia as the yuan, in fact, it is the spring of New Year's Day.

Since then, there have been many sayings about New Year's Day and different festival customs. Many history books and poems also have accounts of the festival of "New Year's Day".

Chinese New Year's Day has always referred to the lunar calendar, that is, the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar. However, when it comes to dynasties and generations, the algorithm on the first day of the first lunar month is very different.

According to historical records, the Xia Dynasty's summer calendar was based on the first month, and the Shang Dynasty's Yin calendar was based on the first month of December. In the Zhou Dynasty, the Zhou calendar used the winter month (November) as the first month.

Later, after Qin Shi Huang unified the world, he took the spring month, that is, October, as the first month, that is to say, New Year's Day in the Qin Dynasty was on the first day of the tenth month of the lunar calendar.

It was not until the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty that Meng Xiyue, that is, the first month of the first month, was stipulated as the first month, and the first day of the month was called New Year's Day, which has been used since then.

In 1911, after the success of the Xinhai Revolution, the provincial governors held a meeting and decided to use the Gregorian calendar (now the Gregorian calendar) to record the year, calling the first day of January in the lunar calendar the Spring Festival and the first day of January in the Gregorian calendar as "New Year's Day".

However, at that time, the first day of January in the Gregorian calendar was not directly called "New Year's Day", but the first day of January in the Gregorian calendar was designated as the "New Year".

New Year's Day really became a national statutory holiday in September 1949 at the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC), and after discussion, the deputies decided to adopt the internationally accepted A.D. chronology.

In order to distinguish the two New Year of the lunar calendar and the solar calendar, and considering that the 24 solar terms are generally around the Lunar New Year, the first day of January of the lunar calendar becomes the "Spring Festival", and the first day of January of the solar calendar is defined as the beginning of the year, that is, New Year's Day.

Right now. Especially in some rural areas, New Year's Day is called the "Gregorian Year", but in fact, this New Year's Day has existed for thousands of years long before the advent and popularity of the Gregorian calendar!

According to legend, the origin of New Year's Day is because it is the day when Emperor Shun sacrifices to Emperor Tian and Emperor Yao, and slowly people regard that day as the beginning of the year, called New Year's Day or Yuanzheng.

In ancient times, successive dynasties would also hold grand celebrations, sacrifices, prayers and other activities on New Year's Day, and the folk also had some of the same customs. Such as sacrificing ancestors, writing door couplets. Writing blessing characters, dancing dragon lanterns, keeping the New Year, eating reunion dinners, setting off firecrackers, and so on.

From this point of view, in ancient times, New Year's Day should be equivalent to our current Spring Festival.

On New Year's Day, Wang Yong slept lazily until more than ten o'clock in the morning. I really couldn't sleep, so I reluctantly got up and got dressed, and washed and dressed up. And he went out of the house.

Today's day is called the solar calendar year in rural areas. Generally, for rural people, it is no more than the solar year, and everyone cares more about the lunar year, that is, the Spring Festival.

But with the New Year's Day holiday policy of this legal holiday. More and more rural people are also starting to celebrate New Year's Day.

Because many young people who go out to school and work are on holiday on New Year's Day, most of the people who are closer to home choose to go home to see.

The kids are back, no matter what the day it is. In the eyes of the elderly at home, it is the same as a festival.

The family got together lively, chattering, and chatting about the shortcomings of parents. Study, work and life, happy, or unsatisfactory things, and finally have a reunion dinner together, and the Spring Festival is nothing more than that.

In the countryside, there are not as many leisure and entertainment places as in the city, and there are no shopping malls full of dazzling goods, and everyone is more likely to get together as a family to chat and talk, especially for the elderly who rarely have time to see their children.

It is precisely because more and more young people in the countryside have begun to enter the city and gradually settle in the city that the New Year's Day, the solar calendar year, has also begun to be widely known and valued in the countryside as they return home on this day.

This kind of attention is different from the Spring Festival, which is more like a big gathering of the whole society or the whole family and friends, a big exchange, and every day is a contact between eating and drinking, which is very fake. The taste of family affection feels a lot less, especially nowadays.

But New Year's Day is different, generally New Year's Day is a maximum of three days off, the time is very short, there is no time to visit any relatives and friends, more is the whole family gathered together to chat, eat.

Therefore, this festival can also be more comfortable and relaxing. At least there is no such thing as the Spring Festival entertainment on the wine table all day long, and there is no fear of needing to buy gifts to prepare for the New Year's money and drain your pockets, you just need to go home to the kang head, and when you wake up, the hot and fragrant meal has been served on the table.

I remember there was an article called "Happiness is on the Way Back".

Compared with the feeling of being full of apprehension and helplessness when I go home during the Spring Festival, the festival of New Year's Day may be more able to realize the feeling that happiness is on the way back!

But these have nothing to do with Wang Yong, he is now full of how to deal with the group of younger brothers and sisters, the anger of the brothers and sisters.

Yesterday I had already made an appointment, and the family was going to get together once. In addition to the fact that today is New Year's Day, the more important thing is that there is another person in the family, that is, Fu Lili, the godmother's goddaughter.

Although the day after their wedding, they also held a homecoming banquet in the village, but the family did not arrive. Before, the second grandmother personally instructed the uncle to call one by one, but unfortunately, many times, people are always involuntarily!

So today, I took this opportunity to even my uncle, who always has a busy job every day, came over with my aunt to reunite with everyone.

Wang Gang, the guy who ran to the poor area of the dam and had no news, is also coming back, and I don't know what he did? As far as his four bodies are not diligent, and the five grains are not divided, don't do bad things with good intentions!

The only person who can't be there is probably Wang Liang, because his identity is very vulgar, and he can't ask for leave casually in the military academy.

Of course, there is no need for the second master to do this, Wang Yong found someone to make a phone call. There is still no problem with criticizing Wang Liang for a few days off. The key is that the second master does not allow it!

The second master now regards Wang Liang as a continuation of his dreams, as a successor in the cultivation of his efforts, and never allows his family to rely on power to help Wang Liang specialize.

In a military school, that is the time to lay the foundation, and if this foundation is not solid, then don't think about any development in the future.

The soldiers in the current army are not so easy to fool as before, you don't have any real skills, how can you let people obey you!

The family had long been familiar with Wang Yong's living habits, and no one called him after getting up in the morning, so they all rushed to the big courtyard of the second grandmother.

When Wang Yong arrived near the second grandmother's house. Before I entered the door, I heard the sound of people inside, and it was very lively!

Good guys, the yard is almost full of adults and children. Think about it, I have two grandfathers and brothers in this lineage, my own grandfather has four offspring, the second grandfather has one, and the second generation is five people.

These five people are married and have children, and this family has at least two children. This is the third generation, plus the daughter-in-law, roughly speaking, it can be more than a dozen years bigger.

Fortunately, there are not many little ones in the fourth generation. Otherwise, you have to tire out the second grandfather and second grandmother who are happily coaxing their grandchildren.

"Oops! Isn't this Wang Da Village? What are you busy with? Why did you come here? ”

Before Wang Yong could enter the door, Zhang Wei, who had only become an official uncle the day before yesterday, counted him down in a weird way.

However, for these words, Wang Yongzai has become a pair of steel and iron bones, that defensive power. directly ignored Zhang Wei.

"You kid sleeps every day these days, and you're not afraid of sleeping with something? In the future, if you have nothing to do, you have to get up and do more exercise! Look at me now? Look at this muscle! ”

Wang Gang, who didn't know when he arrived, also came over to join in the fun, and deliberately bent his forearm. It shows the little muscle mass.

"I think it's all used to it!"

Even Wang Qiang glared at Wang Yong with a nose that was not a nose and a face that was not a face.

Wang Yong tilted his head and thought for a while, he didn't seem to have offended them, right? Why are you shooting at yourself? There's a big conspiracy here!

Before he could figure it out, a few female comrades who were choosing vegetables next to the faucet began to pick up the firepower of the attack.

"My second brother is busy with national affairs all day long, what can you people imagine!"

"That's it, the second brother is pursuing the highest level of sleep art, don't be blind if you don't understand!"

"It's not like that, you see it's only eleven o'clock now, or do you have a big face, usually except for the occasional breakfast, when did he go out in the morning?"

"Stop! STOP！ What are you doing here? Want to gang up and bully my brother? ”

Zhang Mei's position at the critical moment was still very firm, and when she saw her younger brother being squeezed by a group of people, she immediately stepped forward and wanted to say a few fair words.

"Don't speak ill of your godfather!"

At the critical moment, the goddaughter Wenwen also stood up and stood up for her godfather, and she was uneven.

This time Wang Yong was very moved, especially when she saw the little girl staring angrily, pouting, her eyes were red, and tears were rolling in her eyes, she was even more distressed.

The little girl is still too young to know what a joke is. Let them say this, he said it one by one, she thought that this was going to hold Wang Yong's criticism conference!

In the little girl's mind, the godfather should be the best and best godfather in the world, how can they say that about the godfather? As soon as I was in a hurry, tears came out.

It's okay now, originally a group of people had nothing to do and wanted to hold Wang Yong's criticism conference, but they didn't expect to be disrupted by Zhang Mei, especially Wenwen.

Especially Wenwen, a much-loved little girl, as soon as she stood up like this, not to mention anything else, the second grandmother immediately found out that something was wrong.

When I saw the tears of my baby great-granddaughter again, I was so distressed that I almost didn't cry.

"You don't have anything to do when you're idle! Yes? Wang Yong has nothing to do, what's wrong? Just the little thing he did, taking out any one of them is enough for a lifetime! It's okay to be idle and rest, what's wrong? ”

The second grandmother hugged Wenwen to comfort her, and at the same time opened fire on her grandchildren and grandson-in-law.

At this time, for the old lady, it doesn't matter if she is a grandson or a granddaughter, there is no Wang Yongqin who she brought up and is now honoring her by her side.

Especially let her favorite Wenwen, the great-granddaughter, usually don't say anything to Wenwen, it is Wenwen's grandfather, parents say a heavy word, as long as she knows, then she has to take Wenwen to find someone to support her little baby, not to mention that Wenwen is scared to cry today!

Those guys are not stupid, when they saw Wenwen shed tears, they immediately knew that something bad was going to happen. When the second grandmother strode over, they could only mourn for themselves in their hearts!

After a gambling curse and swearing, it was easy to talk about it, so that the second grandmother let them go, and then a group of people squatted down together to persuade Wenwen. After talking about it for a long time, I didn't explain what it was like to joke in vain.

A group of people were helpless, so they had to turn their heads to Wang Yong, the "victim".

Wang Yong originally wanted to take a pinch and let them know how powerful they were, but when he saw the unkind eyes of the second grandmother, he was full of cleverness, and hurriedly stepped forward and dragged his daughter over.

first wiped her tears with a very distressed daughter, and then smiled and whispered to her in Wenwen's ear.

"Good girl, it's okay, you see that they were all scolded by their wives, don't cry?"

"But why do they say that? Godfather is the best godfather in the world! Wenwen didn't want to listen to them say that. ”

Hearing this, Wang Yong's eyes were hot, and he burst into tears. Quickly hugged Wenwen tightly and gently patted her on the back twice with his hand.

"They're so good to Wenwen?"

"Then you will be as good to them as Wenwen in the future, okay? Aunt, uncle and uncle are all very good to Wenwen, in the future, you give Wenwen pocket money, Wenwen will also give them a share, okay? ”

Looking at his daughter's big eyes full of expectations, Wang Yong was speechless. Not only him, but the group of people who listened to him and Wenwen were also moved.

"No, they're all adults, and adults can't ask their godfathers for pocket money anymore. Don't believe me, ask them? ”

How can Wenwen open her mouth! Before she could turn her head, a group of people began to talk nonsense:

"Yes, Wenwen, your godfather is right."

"Well, adults can't ask for pocket money anymore."

"Adults have to earn their own money and spend it for their parents."

"Oh, after that, Wenwen will also earn money for her godfather when she grows up!"

After saying this, he saw his wife looking at him with a worried face, and he added again, "Give my wife flowers too!" ”

Just this sentence immediately made the second grandmother's smiling face like a flower, and holding Wenwen was a good kiss. (To be continued......)
