About This Novel

During the Chinese New Year, the whole family gets together and says, "Eat dumplings, eat dumplings!" Every year on the first day of the first lunar month, we sit together and eat dumplings made by grandma herself. I heard from my grandma that eating dumplings during the New Year is an old custom in my hometown in Shandong, and it has been very popular in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Grandpa, whenever he eats dumplings, he has to talk about allusions that I can recite by heart: Eating dumplings means "Gengsui Jiaozi", "Zi" means "Zi Shi", "Jiao" and "Jiao" are homophonic, and it means "happy reunion" and "good luck". No wonder the annual dumpling feast is an indispensable "feast" in my family, especially this year's Spring Festival, which added a new joy. On the first day of the new year, it was time to eat dumplings again. My aunt said to me mysteriously: "Jiaojian, grandma's dumplings are different today." "What's different about the dumplings?" I asked curiously. "One of the dumplings this time is wrapped with dates. Whoever eats this special dumpling will surely have all their wishes come true. So, everyone should write down their New Year's wishes before eating." After hearing what my aunt said, I was so happy that I couldn't wait to grab the pen and paper. I was about to write "Wish me progress in my study", but then I thought, my grandpa had just had an operation, so I should wish him good health. So, I wrote down my New Year's greetings in a serious manner. I just wanted to see what other people wrote, but to my surprise, everyone was covering their heads tightly and couldn't even see it.
