Xie Nian invited the old Buddha (Bodhisattva), and after a while, burned paper and put off a hundred rings (a hundred rings of small firecracker strings), and each family put away the offerings and prepared the materials for worshipping the ancestors in the afternoon.

In the afternoon in the main hall of the house, the front of the chairs on three sides is empty, the large table in the middle is placed with half-cooked vegetables, chicken, fish, meat, eggs, vegetables and fruit snacks, each vacant seat has a pair of chopsticks and half a glass of wine, lights a pair of candles, and lights three incense.

The three dog fathers took the incense, went to the door, invited the ancestors, came to the New Year's dinner, and then returned to the table, the whole family folded their hands together, invited the ancestors, and had a good meal; Please also ask your ancestors to bless your family with safety, health and success!

During this process, children are not allowed to play loudly in the hall, and they are not allowed to touch chairs and tables; After a while, you have to add wine to your meal, and when you pour wine, you should imagine that someone is sitting on a chair, and you can't touch the chair and table, otherwise, it will be disrespectful.

At the end, burn paper money in the door, wait for all the ashes, and then the whole family comes, worship the ancestors, send the three incense sticks to the door, insert them on the ground or wall outside, set off firecrackers (firecrackers), and send the ancestors home.

Finally waiting for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, three dogs and four dogs Chunhua and several children sat at the big table, while looking at the table full of sumptuous dishes, while swallowing saliva, while eagerly waiting for the whole family to arrive, before moving chopsticks to eat, this is the rule.

At this time, most of the adults will drink some wine, and the children will go to the delicious dishes, what meat, chicken, fish, so good to eat, until the mouth is full of oily stomach, and they really can't eat anymore, so they are reluctant to get off the table.

Sangou likes to pour chicken juice on top of the rice to eat, and make chickens in his hometown, basically based on red stewed chicken, and finally stew out the yellow-orange-orange chicken fat and thick juice, the aroma is fragrant and the taste is hooking.

In normal times, such chicken bibimbap, three dogs can kill three or four big bowls in one go, but now, they can't eat like this, there are still a lot of delicious fish, meat and something.

It's so delicious, even if it's been more than half a year, thinking about the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, you can't help but drool; Sometimes in my dreams, I dreamed of eating Chinese New Year's Eve, and I was reluctant to wake up, in order to eat more in the dream, and when I woke up, I found that my saliva was drooling.

After dinner, everyone has to get together, drink tea, eat dim sum, roast or something, and some people have to play cards and gamble a little money, which is allowed at home.

The adults gathered around the fire, chatting while drinking tea, not going to sleep, to keep the New Year, and the three dogs and their little children had long yawned, this New Year's Eve was too late, and the mother had to put them to bed.

On the morning of the first day of the new year, it is not allowed to lie in bed, and you can't sleep during the day on this day, which means that you can't be lazy on the first day of the new year.

I can't help but scold, adults and children can't, so some children play unscrupulously, anyway, adults won't scold, how good.

Early in the morning of the first day of the new year, Sangou and his younger siblings were called by their parents to get up, they couldn't open the gate, they had to dress up, and when their father was ready for the cannonball, they lit it, and let it go when they opened the gate.

Firecrackers are put out of the house from the house, and the louder the firecrackers, the longer the better, which means that the door is opened loudly, the door is good, and if it sounds for a long time, it will be lucky for a long time.

The three dogs couldn't wait for the firecrackers to finish, so they rushed up to pick up the firecrackers, picked up the individual firecrackers that were not exploded, and stepped on them if they were still ringing.

I remember that once there was a big family in the village who was marrying and had set off firecrackers for a long time, Sangou and Mingcheng covered their ears not far away, tilted their heads, squinted their eyes, and looked at the firecrackers.

When the firecrackers were about to explode to the end, all the children rushed up and stepped on the last firecrackers with their feet, for fear that it would be a little late, and the firecrackers that did not sound would be snatched up.

In the choking smoke of gunpowder, I saw countless feet stepping on the firecrackers that were still flashing and exploding, and when the last firecracker was extinguished, all the children pouted their butts and bent down to grab the firecrackers.

The thick smoke has not yet dissipated, there is a thick fog on the ground, choking, everyone is holding their breath, groping in the thick smoke, sometimes their heads hit other people's buttocks, and they can't take care of it, so they quickly find firecrackers that haven't exploded.

If you're lucky, you'll pick up a lot of twins, which means that the fuse is connected to two firecrackers at two ends, and the rest are single, and finally even those without a fuse, but not exploded, have to be picked up.

After picking it up, take a lit incense, you can light a firecracker and play with it, the village here "pop" sound, there "pop" sound, to ensure that the children are playing with firecrackers.

If there is no lead, tear open the outer roll of paper, pour out the nitrate inside, collect it, you can play with firecrackers from the earthen firecrackers, wrap it in paper, lead out a fuse, and then wrap it tightly with bark, put it up, and it will blow up very loudly.

……

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, another thing I am looking forward to is the New Year's money, the father will give each child a little money, three dogs and their family, generally a few copper horns.

This is their own property, and everyone happily takes it to buy things, and most of the boys will buy food or firecrackers.

The breakfast on the first day of the new year generally eats yellow rice cakes and boiled cabbage leaves, which means that they are upright and innocent, and they eat in the new year, their careers are upblown, and they are innocent and upright.

In the morning, I want to go to the temple fair, the whole family takes paper money and incense, goes to the temple to incense, the whole village goes, the crowds are crowded, the incense is too vigorous, the smoke is rising, I can't breathe, the three dogs worship a few times, and I immediately escaped and went to play with my friends.

The mother will donate some sesame oil money, write the name of the family, drink a cup of green tea in the temple, and go home with some auspicious and peaceful air, so as to be auspicious.

The first day of the new year is not far away, go to the house of relatives and friends to pay New Year's greetings to the second day of the new year, the second day of the new year is the day of travel, the adults of the family with three dogs, carrying gifts, go to the relatives' house to pay New Year's greetings.

Entering the door of a relative's house, first drink a cup of white sugar tea water, as well as snacks, there are stewed eggs to eat before the meal, and there are wine, chicken, fish and meat dishes at the main meal.

Until the fifteenth day of the first month, it is considered to be the end of the year, the fifteenth day of the first month is the Lantern Festival, the whole village spends together, there are singing big operas in the temple fair, and finally the temple and the clan pay for the banquet for the whole village to eat.

There are hundreds of people in the whole village, and there are thousands of people in some big villages, hundreds of large round tables, full of dishes, and thousands of hundreds of people eat together, and the scene is grand.

After fifteen, for children, school will start. For the people, when everything recovers and sprouts in spring, it is time to start planting seedlings in spring.

Early in the morning, there was hoarfrost on the ground, and there was a thin layer of frozen ice on the water; The three dogs go to school to get cold, and they will carry a brazier to keep warm.

At this time, put the fire chopsticks (there is a pair of copper and iron chopsticks on the side of the brazier, which is used to pull the charcoal fire in the brazier), heat it in the brazier, and then drill a hole in the ice cube and use straw to carry it and play with it.
