Chapter 249: Tradition
Push the cup and change the lamp, and the guests are happy.
This meal is not the most sumptuous, but everyone gathers together to celebrate the New Year, and it is very lively.
Because they had to drink, several people sat at the wine table for a few more hours, and by this time, the Predator Abbet had already eaten enough.
The Chinese wine culture has been around for a long time, but fortunately, everyone present is already familiar with it, so the annoying forcible toast has not happened.
After bidding farewell to Bai Leng's group of guests and leaving, Hao Qiao also gave them some return gifts.
In the late afternoon, the small-eyed Boss Li and Uncle Li in the store next door came to pay New Year's greetings.
After giving Yalina a red envelope, Uncle Li stood in Hao Qiao's living room and looked around, then looked at Hao Qiao again and said, "Today's first day of the new year, you won't be cleaning, right?" ”
"Of course, doesn't it mean to go to the old and welcome the new? Of course, you have to clean it up, you see how clean the house is now. ”
After listening to Uncle Li's words, Hao Qiao said as a matter of course.
"Oh, you young people, the traditions of the older generation have all been forgotten." Uncle Li seemed to wave his hand helplessly, and then said: "On the first day of the Lunar New Year, it is taboo to clean, which will sweep away the luck of the new year and attract bad luck." Cleaning, that's all done yesterday's Chinese New Year's Eve, why did you delay it until today? ”
Hearing this, Hao Qiao knew that there was such a doorway.
It's a pity that he usually doesn't have festivals, and he doesn't understand these at all, how many modern people still pay attention to the traditional methods of various traditional festivals? The more the New Year passes, the more there is no New Year's flavor, which is normal.
Listening to Uncle Li still talking to himself with his fingers and muttering to explain to himself the way to pass the Yuan Festival from the first day of the Lunar New Year to the fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year, Hao Qiao regarded him as an elder, so he also listened carefully. Smiled dryly, but didn't explain that I went to fight aliens yesterday, so there was no time to do it.
However, I learned from Uncle Li that starting this year, the country will begin to refocus on the development of traditional Chinese culture, so it has set hard requirements for each city, and relevant officials must take every traditional festival in China seriously.
Listening to Uncle Li's narration, Hao Qiao can be regarded as understanding the beginning and end of some things.
It is because in recent years, from the national leaders to the common people, all of them have paid too much attention to interests, and the pace of life has become faster and faster, while the cultural traditions and various treasures that belong to our country have gradually been forgotten.
Even, some festivals invaded by foreign cultures are more flavorful than our own festivals in China, which makes some of the leaders of the older generation feel very uncomfortable.
In their opinion, if a foreign country can invade our country culturally, can't we still let China carry forward its own traditional culture and export it abroad?
No matter how bad it is, no matter what, you can't let your countrymen lose their country's cultural traditions, right?
To put it seriously, this is the foundation for the Chinese children to be able to inherit for thousands of years.
Good things from abroad are coming, and we are tolerant of all rivers, and those who come will not refuse.
But we can't worship foreign countries, and our own things are no worse than foreign ones.
As for why Boss Li, who runs a snack bar, knows so much about the news in this regard, listening to his own statement, it turns out that Boss Li also worked in the art troupe when he was young, which is also what some of his old acquaintances told him.
It is said that many traditional performances officially authorized by the government, such as dragon and lion dances, will also take to the streets during this time.
If the official takes the lead in getting high first, the people will naturally follow suit.
It takes a lot of money, but apparently the state doesn't really care about it anymore.
I sat with Uncle Li and talked about this for a long time, and before dinner, I sent Uncle Li out of the door.
When he got outside, Hao Qiao was surprised to find that many places on the side of the road had been lit up, looking extremely festive, and he really realized how much effort the country was ready to put in this time.
I heard that in the past few days, I have been coming according to the traditional festival, and when it comes to the fifteenth Shangyuan Festival, it will be the most lively time, and Hao Qiao is also ready to go out and have a good time on that day.
Time flies by in a flash.
Perhaps Hao Qiao's prayer was answered by God, from the first to the fifteenth day of the new year, half a month has passed, and Hao Qiao has really not encountered any special events, which also makes Hao Qiao's whole person a lot easier.
The fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year is the time of the Shangyuan Festival.
In ancient times, it was almost every year when the city was full of revelry, and it was a rare and lively day of the year.
On this day, the big girls and young ladies who can't go out casually on weekdays are finally able to go out and participate in the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, looking forward to meeting a Ruyu Langjun, and finally passing on their feelings with handkerchiefs.
Although in modern times, there has long been no such tradition, but this year, the state requires that at least the Shangyuan Festival in Liuyang City is indeed beautiful.
Fifteen days ago, after hearing the things that Uncle Li said, Hao Qiao was already looking forward to the arrival of today's Shangyuan Festival.
Today, he went out with Deadpool and a few people, looking at the scene outside, Hao Qiao smiled slightly, and really did not disappoint himself.
It's just that the only pity is that the Predator Abbet, after all, is a lone wolf, and still has his own affairs, and he didn't stay until today, and he left the earth a few days ago. Otherwise, you can call for a lively and lively meeting.
In the case of the official intervention in earnest, Hao Qiao finally had a strong holiday atmosphere.
When you go up to the street, you can see that there are pedestrians everywhere outside, and there are very few vehicles on the road. Many people walked down the street with lanterns in their hands, and their ears were filled with laughter.
Deadpool and Xiaobaitu were very interested in the lanterns that those people were carrying, Hao Qiao saw that there were many vendors selling them at the roadside stalls next to them, and they were not very expensive, fifteen yuan each, so he directly paid for one for each person, and walked towards the river with it in his hand.
They also knew for a long time that the area of the river had been blocked by the traffic police, and all of them could only walk.
But in the same way, it is also the most lively place in the city for the Shangyuan Festival.
The Shangyuan Lantern Festival is also held over there.
There are two large squares on both sides of the river, both of which have been completely requisitioned at this time, and when Hao Qiao and they came here with lanterns, all they found was a lively scene of crowds.
The little girl Yalina seemed to see this kind of scene for the first time, and she couldn't help but open her mouth wide.
With the passage of time, the haze of the death of her parents gradually faded from her heart, and now Yalina finally has the feeling of an ordinary little girl.
Well......
Maybe this also has something to do with the fact that she often hangs out with Deadpool, and she can't be cold even if she wants to.
Woooooo I'm actually Kavin! I'm Kavin!
Ahhh It's so angry!
The first shift is guaranteed, and the two more will be very late, so you guys go to bed first.....
I'll see it tomorrow
