The bat pattern is pasted on the top of the door, which is to ward off evil spirits and attract blessings.

Secondly, don't worry, it's not time for couplets or something.

Looking at it now, it's very good-looking.

Then I moved everything back into the house, and it looked very New Year's atmosphere.

At the beginning of twenties, it is necessary to make food.

The northern winter is cold enough, and the food is kept for a long time, so when it is ready, it is left away.

In the first month, just take it and eat it when it's hot.

Twenty-three, the northern year. It's also a critical day.

I want to send the king of the stove to heaven. When I went out to buy hemp candy during the day, the people's wishes were always simple, for example, I used hemp candy to stick to the mouth of the king of the stove, telling him to go to heaven and not say that it was not at home.

Then at night, the portrait of the Lord of the Stove and the Lord of Heaven and Earth was picked up and burned.

Kowtow and make offerings, and say a few more auspicious words. It's nothing more than words to bless the family.

The pair of the Lord of the Stove will not change for ten thousand years: God says good things, and returns to the palace to bring auspiciousness. It is also the most simple prayer. However, the pair of heaven and earth is more magnificent: the sky is high and the sun and the moon are high, and the earth is thick with mountains and rivers.

Seriously offered the things, Chiri always gave them to the children, saying that they would be blessed and blessed not to get sick or something.

Yalic has always cooperated, too, and eats even if it is unpalatable.

Although it is said that Qili has no daughter-in-law, he is a widower with children, and his life should have been confused.

But he felt sorry for the little girl, so he invited a nurse.

Although, this nurse can't be compared with the big family. It's not that kind of situation.

Nurse Zhang takes care of Yaliqi and gets silver every month, and now she is like a family.

Sometimes, because Qili is full of people, there are some ways, and he also takes the men of Zhang's mother's family with him.

After a year, there is also some income.

Grandma Zhang's family has no daughters, as if Yalich is a daughter.

In this one thing alone, it can be seen that Qili is really a person who can arrange a life.

How can such a person make do with such a big thing as the New Year?

So the arrangement is well organized every year, and what he does, he does it himself. If you can't do it, ask someone to do it.

Rao is a poor family, but he will never be soft when he should spend money.

It is also this attitude to life, so that Yalich has developed a temperament that can live calmly even if he is in a bad situation.

After reaching twenty, this steamed bun is going to be a big deal.

Not only to be steamed and eaten, but also to be offered to God from the first day to the tenth day of the first month, and to the gods at the fifteenth hour.

Worship the gods during the New Year, go to the grave, and make steamed buns for the ancestors, it is not good to be bare.

So bring flowers.

Chiri can't do this.

There is a girl at home, but he can't hold it in his mouth, how can he be willing to work?

But he'd been thinking about it for a long time! Grandma Zhang's house is staggered by a day, and Aunt Li's house next door is with his family!

Aunt Li's family is also simple, so they have always been together.

The two families came forward according to the proportion, then came to Yalich's house to do it, and finally took it according to the proportion.

The father and son of Chiri did not sit in vain, lighting fires, doing chores, and doing both.

On the kang, Aunt Li and Granny Zhang kept working hard in their hands, and their mouths were also non-stop. Let's talk about Zhang's parents, Li Jia's short. Whose daughter is out of the cabinet, whose boy is married. Whose daughter-in-law is pregnant. Whoever marries a good daughter-in-law, whose daughter-in-law is not like that.

Then in the morning, I made the steamed buns that were flowered and not spent.

There are also two flower cakes to be used, jujube mountain, and all kinds of things that need to be offered to the gods, called 'contribution', that is, the noodles and dates are made into a wishful appearance.

The pot boils and then it starts steaming.

One pot can't be put down, it's two pots every year.

After it comes out, it is dotted with red impatiens, and it looks like it.

Then let it cool, and then put it in a large washed water tank, layer by layer, if you are afraid of getting it, separate it with a clean white linen.

If you put it like this, you can put it until mid-February.

And then one day, it's to make fish, meat, and the fish is generally a big carp.

Because of the limitations of the times, if you eat live fish, it is not something that the people can do, and this has to be done by the southerners.

Therefore, the fish of the Yalich family is usually prepared in advance, and in the first month, it is just steamed.

Wash and peel the fish, wrap it in flour, and fry it in a pan until it is cooked.

When the time comes, it will be steamed directly, and it can be boiled again.

The meat is divided into several parts.

If you buy bones, stew them first, put them aside to freeze, and then take them out for the Chinese New Year.

Another part of the pork belly should be kept in advance, waiting for the day before the New Year to make dumplings to make dumpling filling.

Another part, done in advance, in oily meat.

The last part is set aside.

Cooking fish and boiling bones is generally done in one day, and boiling water is also done in one day.

Chiri buys extra bones every year, because Yalic eats meat and likes to gnaw on bones.

Fuller Hui laughed at the girl's birth, which was born by a puppy.

However, Yalich also knew that the family was not rich, so it would be good to eat some, and she ate the most during the New Year.

Another day, whole croquettes, croquettes.

These are two things, the steamed meatballs are shredded radish minced, plus starch and minced meat and various seasonings, and then kneaded into meatballs and steamed.

A bowl of lumps, put aside, when to eat, or directly in the dish, or just hot to eat.

Croquettes are different, depending on the taste, tofu, minced meat, there are all there.

On one side of the Yalich family, tofu is mixed with minced meat.

Regenerate a pot of bean sprouts.

Bean sprouts are mung bean sprouts, as long as the water is changed every day.

This time it came and went, and it was already the twenty-fifth or sixth day of the lunar month.

Then disassemble and wash the big pieces, and this matter has to be said, Chiri is a good Amma.

I did it silently.

When it came to twenty-eight or nine, he hurriedly went to the street to buy vegetables.

On the thirtieth day, the fire will be strong in the morning. Heaped in the yard. Clean the yard inside and out again.

Finally, the gate and the door of the house in the yard were pasted with pairs.

The pairs are handwritten by Uncle Wu at the mouth of the alley, and there are also pairs sold in these years, but they are generally written by familiar people.

Just carry two taels of burning knives, Uncle Wu likes to take a sip.

However, you should bring your own red paper.

In addition to the door of the house, there is also a small red bar on the rice noodle jar, which is generally written: Rice noodles are like mountains.

There is also a sticker in the house: Look up and see joy.

Sticking it high, you can see it when you look up.

Then the chicken coop, pigsty, and sheep pen in the yard, as long as there is, must be pasted with a red note, written with all kinds of prayers. There is also a picture posted on the fire: Vigorous.

A sheet should also be posted on the cabinet door: the cabinet is full of clothes. And so on and so forth.

After pasting the pair, the father and son of Chiri will go to the ancestral grave to ask for a 'tree'.

The tree is the meaning of the ancestors, which is also the custom of some places in the north, and inviting the ancestors to come back on Chinese New Year's Eve is also the meaning of the New Year.

[Many local customs are different, and the north and south of a county are different, so don't study them in detail. I'm writing about some of the customs of my hometown. Momda. 】
