When the New Year arrives, it is connected with a full amount of wealth, symbolizing the wealth of the year. This water is to be usable on the first day of the new year. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the first taboo is not to sweep the floor and pour water, for fear of taking away the wealth. Yes, although the family ate a lot of snack bags and melon seed skins and threw them in the trash can, on the table, Lin Juan, who has always been diligent and virtuous, turned a blind eye and did not clean up, and even, Lin Juan prepared a bucket for all the water tomorrow, and then, the financial water could not be poured out.

The Su family is a traditional person, and during the Spring Festival, they all go back to do the customs and taboos they know, and they do not violate them. Not a superstition, but a kind of inheritance and influence, which has subtly dissolved into their lives every word and deed.

Anyway, there are few Su families, and there are no relatives and friends to come, they also pay enough attention to hygiene habits on weekdays, and there are special trash cans in each room, living room, bathroom, and kitchen at home, and they are not afraid of how much garbage they accumulate.

However, put it in the ordinary people's homes, the first day of the Lunar New Year, is the time when the whole family reunion is the most, plus the New Year's greetings people are constantly coming in and out, eating peanuts, eating melon seeds, eating fruits, smoking, peeled off skins, shells, slag, paper scraps, cigarette butts are all over the ground, not sweeping, so people come up with a workaround - change to sweep out to sweep inward, symbolizing the treasure into the door, after sweeping in the trash can or paper basket does not fall out, the treasure will be retained.

Therefore, while abiding by the old customs inherited from ancient China, Chinese people are also integrating new ideas into the inheritance, which is more in line with life and has more long-standing influence. Inheritance. The purpose of the taboo in the old customs of the ancients was to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and pray for good luck in the coming year. Although it may seem a bit superstitious and even ridiculous today. However, if the "taboo" is regarded as the inheritance of traditional Chinese culture, it is actually unique and unique.

After the New Year's customs were done, Su Li gave her handmade gifts for her parents, a set of close-fitting pajamas for each person, Su Li could not spare much time, and could not make more troublesome coats and coats for her parents, so she prepared a set of close-fitting pajamas for her parents. With the best plain silk satin as the base, it simply shows off some patterns, and the embroidery for Abba Su Zhiyuan is bamboo auspicious cloud pattern embroidery. What was prepared for Grandma Lin Juan was a cluster of orchids, a stitch and a thread, all of which were Su Li's sincere intentions.

After receiving this thoughtful gift, the Su family and his wife couldn't help but want to burst into tears again. Excited. Resist the urge to cry in your eyes. Su Zhiyuan and Lin Juan gave Su Li the New Year's gift they had prepared, and there was also a red package with the New Year's money they used to give to Su Li.

Su Zhiyuan's gift to Su Li is a late Qing antique incense burner, perfume and ink are Su Li's interest, in a time with friends to participate in an auction, Su Zhiyuan auctioned this antique incense burner, belongs to the folk boutique, the price is right, the thing is exquisite. At that time, Su Zhiyuan was ready to give it to Su Li. In addition, the longer this thing lasts, the more room for appreciation, not to waste, but also to accumulate money for his little girl little by little.

Lin Juan's gift follows the practice of previous years, is a set of clothes that she personally weaved, cut and sewed embroidery for Su Li, this year, Lin Juan prepared a set of lilac embroidered silk cheongsam for Su Li, which is almost not bad for the top handmade cheongsam that they customized from a special cheongsam shop in the shopping mall, or even more exquisite, that stitch and thread, are Lin Juan's strong maternal love for her little girl.

In previous years, the family conditions were not good, she could only prepare a half-piece coarse cloth shirt for the little girl, but this year, she was finally able to prepare a good dress for her child, and Lin Juan was also very pleased. From the selection of weaving materials, silk threads, to embroidery, Lin Juan is hands-on, using the funds she has saved in the past six months to buy fine silk woven into satin cloth, this is her heart, she wants to be her painstaking from beginning to end!

After hugging each other and saying goodbye, the Su family husband and wife and Su Li were separated in the corner of the master bedroom and the second bedroom, and each entered their own room to rest. The sky outside is full of fireworks, and fireworks are in full bloom. Although firecrackers and fireworks are prohibited in the city, the government will still organize special arrangements for local firecrackers and fireworks to add to the atmosphere of the New Year during important traditional festivals such as New Year's festivals.

In this sound of firecrackers and fireworks, the Su family calmed down their excitement and fell asleep one after another. They still have a lot of arrangements to get up tomorrow morning, and they have to keep their spirits full. The leisurely fragrance releases the soul and assists in sleeping, and the Su family has a good night's sleep under the soothing company of such a fragrance. There is a professional household in dispensing incense that can be called a master-level craftsman, even if the outside world is noisy, the Su family has no dreams all night, and dreams until dawn.

As the saying goes, "the first dumpling is the first two noodles". On the first day of the Lunar New Year, almost every household has to eat dumplings. Chinese people eat dumplings in the Spring Festival to take the sound of "fortune and treasure". The second is that the dumplings have fillings, which is convenient for people to wrap all kinds of auspicious and festive things into the filling, so as to place people's good expectations for the new year.

Therefore, on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Su family still eats dumplings. Lin Juan once again prepared a few exquisite dumplings with a different taste of yesterday's filling, and also cooked three small bowls of rice balls with the taste that the family likes to eat, the rice balls were also wrapped by Lin Juan herself, the filling of the rice balls bought outside was too sweet and greasy, the Su family had a light taste, and the two of them could make do with it, Ah Li Bao would not taste a bite, and if he barely ate it, Ah Li Bao's sensitive stomach would also be uncomfortable. Yes, even if it is a little troublesome, Lin Juan still prefers to do it herself, anyway, she has a lot of free time, and the most important job is to take care of this father and daughter!

In addition, Lin Juan also prepared a plate of rice cakes and sent them with jam. The first meal of the Spring Festival is to eat "rice cakes", which means "better than the year every year", which is the custom of Huguang, but now as the new China enters the 21st century, the earth has put forward the concept of a global village, and more and more people in China are naturally integrated.

In the supermarket, there are a wide variety of things from all over the country, and the transportation is convenient and fast, so you can buy whatever you want. The rice cake of the Su family is a New Year's gift from a soldier from Huguang in the batch of gifts sent by rigorously, Lin Juan cooked a plate and sent it to the table on the morning of the first day of the new year, just for the homonym of the rice cake, the rice cake, every year! There is also a beautiful meaning that the year is better than the year, and the family will get a good luck in the new year! (To be continued......)
