The most important annual festival, the Spring Festival, is here. People all over the country are busy celebrating the New Year. They buy New Year goods, put up Spring Festival couplets, door gods, decals, set off firecrackers, sweep dust, bathe, worship stoves, worship ancestors, stay up late, pay New Year greetings and other activities. The customs of different periods, regions and ethnic groups across the country are different. The following are the customs of the Hunan Spring Festival. Please read it for reference! There are many customs during the Spring Festival in rural areas of Hunan. If you don't believe it, just listen! "Playing with lanterns" is the most interesting one, and it is also a mass entertainment activity! Every New Year, people use their hands to make lanterns of various shapes such as squares, pentagons, and octagons. They paste the outside with colorful paper, and then draw various figures such as the God of Wealth, the Thousand-Hand Guanyin, and the God of Earth that people worship devoutly. Some people also draw animals such as the Five Rams, Dragons and Phoenixes, and Tigers with Wings that bring auspiciousness to the people in folklore. When the New Year comes, after dinner every night, people take their carefully crafted lanterns, light a bright candle, and gather on the Shaiguping at the head of the village. Twenty or so lanterns illuminate the Shaiguping like daylight. Under the leadership of the leader, they beat gongs and drums, and line up to hold up The bright lanterns are walking into the main hall of a family. When they hear the sound of gongs and drums, the owner quickly lights the firecrackers and crackles to welcome the lantern team into his main room. In the owner's heart, it is not just the lantern team that walks in, but brings the blessings of the villagers, symbolizing the New Year's orange prosperity and wealth. The lantern team shuttled through the hall, performing various movements accompanied by the sound of gongs and drums. The hall was filled with joy and joy. After the performance, the lantern team walked to another house. At this time, the owner hurriedly took out a red envelope from his arms and handed it to the leader of the lantern team. I followed the lantern team from house to house until late at night. What a pleasant night it was, I spent an unforgettable Spring Festival in rural Hunan. Hunan people believe that the Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional festivals, commonly known as the New Year, and it lasts the longest. That is, from the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month of the previous year to the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month of the next year. New Year's Eve and Reunion Dinner Staying awake on New Year's Eve is one of the folk customs in Hunan. On this night, the firewood in the stove is kept burning all night long, and the whole family stays together until after twelve o'clock. The Miao people in western Hunan are even more distinctive. Every year on the eve of the 30th, the family cooks fried bacon, prepares sour fish and other delicacies, prepares rice-baked rice wine, and happily eats the "Reunion Dinner". But the whole family could not sit down at this time. The master is fully armed, with a spear in his hand, and hides alone in the corner of the gate, keeping an eye on the outside of the village to prevent wild beasts and foreigners from invading. If a friend comes, the master runs out and pulls the friend into the house, where they want to have a friendly reunion dinner and celebrate New Year's Eve with a fire. Reunion dinners are mostly eaten on the 30th night, such as in Zhuzhou, Changsha, and Yongzhou; some are also held in the morning before dawn, such as Shaoyang and Loudi; and some are held at noon, such as Hengyang. During the New Year's Eve dinner, the whole family sits around the same table. The oldest person tastes the food first, and is required to use chopsticks for every dish on the table, regardless of size. Women who usually don't drink alcohol are also required to take a symbolic sip of wine to seek good luck. There are many interesting dishes on the table. For example: fish balls and meatballs symbolize reunion, radish means good luck, whole chicken, "we started by eating chicken", and some fried foods are fried to show "prosperous family luck". During the reunion dinner, if the family is out and cannot get back in time, a seat should be vacant, put out cups and chopsticks, and even put the person's clothes on the empty seat to express that the whole family misses him. Folks in Zhuzhou, Hengyang and other places eat reunion dinner. The vegetables do not need to be chopped with a knife, but can be torn with hands. They do not bite them when eating, but eat them slowly, which means to wish parents longevity. In Shaoyang, Huaihua and other places, cabbage is not eaten when having reunion dinner, and it is taboo to "spend a year in vain". Little New Year and Worshiping the Kitchen God Many places in Hunan have the custom of celebrating Little New Year, but the specific time and degree of grandness are different. The Little New Year is the "opening ceremony" of the "New Year". Starting from this day, the festive atmosphere continues until the Lantern Festival. Most areas such as Zhuzhou regard the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month as the "Off Year", Yiyang and other places regard the 23rd day as the "Off Year", while Shaoyang, Loudi and other places regard the 15th day of the first lunar month as the "Off Year". Hengyang and northern Hunan areas pay more attention to celebrating the off year, while Zhuzhou and other places pay less attention to celebrating the off year. Most areas in Hunan have the custom of worshiping the Kitchen God on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. It is said that on the 23rd, the Kitchen God will go to heaven to tell people what is good and evil, so on this day to worship the Kitchen God, every family must clean the stove, tables, pots and pans, and paste a couplet next to the Stove God statue: "God speaks good things, and the lower world will keep peace." Candies are also offered in front of the stove. The whole family must salute and make a wish, hoping that the Kitchen God will not say bad things about people after eating it. This is called "giving the Kitchen God a gift". The annual Spring Festival is here again, the streets and alleys are bustling with activity, and the festival customs in each place have their own characteristics. Now, let me introduce the customs of celebrating the Spring Festival in Shiyan. Every household has to post Spring Festival couplets during the Spring Festival. Spring couplets are a type of couplet, so named because they are posted during the Spring Festival. At first, people carved human figures in peach wood and hung them by the door to ward off evil spirits. Later, it was simplified to inscribing the name of the door god on the peach wood board. Spring couplets are mostly written on red paper, which represents auspiciousness and happiness. Every household has the habit of staying up late on New Year's Eve during the Spring Festival. The New Year's Eve dinner begins with the New Year's Eve dinner. This New Year's Eve dinner should be eaten slowly, starting from the time when the lanterns are turned on. Some people have to eat until late at night, but the children are so impatient that they simply run out to play together. The custom of keeping the year old includes not only a feeling of nostalgia for the passing years, but also a good hope for the coming New Year. At midnight, when the New Year's bell rings, the sound of firecrackers shakes the sky above the entire city. At this moment, some people still build a "vigorous fire" in the courtyard to show that the sky is full of energy and prosperity. Around the blazing fire, the children set off firecrackers and jumped happily. At this time, there were bright lights inside the house, brilliant sparks in front of the court, and loud noises outside, pushing the lively atmosphere of New Year's Eve to its climax. Whenever the Spring Festival comes, it is also the busiest time for housewives in the kitchen. The New Year dishes are prepared a few days ago, and the New Year's Eve dinner is always made by the chef on the 30th day of the year, and the dumplings for the New Year's Day are also made on the 30th night. At this time, every chopping board was busy chopping meat and chopping vegetables. At this time, the sound of chopping boards and firecrackers, mixed with people's talking and laughter, come and go, filling the ears, intertwining into a cheerful New Year's Eve music. Eating New Year's Eve dinner is the most lively and joyful time for every family during the Spring Festival. The table is filled with rich New Year dishes, and the whole family is reunited. Sitting around the table and having the reunion dinner together, the sense of fulfillment is really indescribable. People not only enjoy the table full of delicacies, but also enjoy the happy atmosphere. We usually have two things here, one is hot pot and the other is fish. The hot pot is boiling, steaming, warm and sultry, indicating that it is booming; "fish" and "yu" are homophonic, which symbolizes "abundance in auspicious celebrations" and also means "abundance every year". There are also radish, commonly known as cabbage, which is used to wish good luck; lobster, fried fish and other fried foods are used to wish prosperity for the family, just like "fire cooking oil". The last part is usually a sweet dish, wishing you a sweet life in the future. On this day, even if you don't know how to drink, you should drink a little. For a time, there are endless descriptions of Shiyan's festival customs. When you get here, you can feel its charm personally. People love to celebrate the New Year, of course because of the delicious food and lively customs! Hunan people celebrate the Spring Festival, and every household has to eat bacon. The preparation of bacon also needs someone to do it, so that the taste will be authentic, fat but not greasy. Making bacon is not easy either. You must first prepare the meat and then marinate it with salt for a period of time until the color reaches the standard before proceeding to the next process. The next step is to hang the bacon on the firewood and bake it until it is black. It is said that there is "fish" every year. During the Spring Festival in Hunan, this delicacy is indispensable. A few days before the festival, adults in the family will go to the market to purchase delicious fish to make various delicacies. Therefore, eating these delicacies will give you a taste of the New Year. An essential thing for children to do during the New Year is to pester their parents to buy new clothes, and even the parents will not refuse, after all the New Year! Of course we have to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new! After that, we purchase all kinds of firecrackers, waiting to have a lot of fun on New Year's Eve. The children are happily welcoming the New Year, and the adults will naturally not be idle either. They have to buy all kinds of dried fruits to entertain guests during the Spring Festival, and also buy fireworks to welcome the God of Wealth on New Year's Eve. It is said that only in this way can they have good luck in the new year. New Year's Eve is really lively. Every household is rushing to make New Year dishes to reward the "heroes" who have worked hard to save money. Therefore, every household is full of wine and meat, and a joyful atmosphere envelopes the entire Hunan. On New Year's Eve, every door is open to enjoy the fireworks. Beautiful fireworks decorate the gloomy night sky, just like flowers blooming in the night sky, which are praised repeatedly. The whole New Year's Eve is brightly lit. The first day of the first lunar month is the day for New Year greetings. Every family visits their relatives to pay New Year greetings. The children are even more happy to spend New Year's greetings, because on this day, they can get generous New Year's money. Every Spring Festival in Hunan is extremely lively, no worse than other cities.

I am participating in the Qidian [Vote for Online Literary God-level Famous Scenes] event. The original text of the famous scene I submitted is as follows. Come and discuss it with me! This idea is really good! An Ji did not disturb the midsummer in his thoughts, but secretly admired in his heart: Fire and fire are dependent on each other, and stars can start a prairie fire; light and light walk together, and the moon and the moon will surely shine together. {"LinkId":"883432641","LinkName":"515 Book Fan Festival-Famous Scene Voting","LinkUrl":"QDReader://ataru.

Reservations ① and ② [Reflections after reading] No matter which novel the author Dada writes, I want to praise Dada's writing style and literary quality. Although as a science student, I don't know much about liberal arts, but just looking at the words written in large pens, there is always a touch of beauty. In particular, this book's description of intangible cultural heritage touched me deeply. Maybe this touch was only for a short moment, but it also made me understand our intangible cultural heritage, the crystallization of the wisdom of our predecessors, and the efforts of generations to pass on the craftsmanship. Actually, I was interested in the heroine Menghui Song Yun at first, but my interest was only superficial because I thought the setting was interesting and the imagination was fun. After calming down and reading this novel from the first chapter, I was completely attracted by Luo written in a broad strokes. The master cheered up from self-pity, the apprentice always accompanied the master, the stumbling blocks between the fifth sister and Fang Yanei... I don't know the so-called silk weaving culture, nor what Song Yunhang Luo is, but when reading this novel, I was completely immersed in this story. After all, I just expressed my own thoughts, which seems to be equivalent to a two or three hundred word review.

I admire the author's poetry skills very much, so I will create a post here to excerpt the poems in the article. (Starting from Chapter 19, there will be opportunities to return to the previous ones)

[Intangible Cultural Heritage - Yishuo's Feelings] I am a person who loves to read novels. I am used to reading ordinary online articles. Finally, I found that Qidian is also working on the inheritance book of intangible cultural heritage. Because of curiosity, I drove a shuttle for Qianzai. I have seen intangible cultural heritage promotions on Douyin before, such as ceramics, [xiū] lacquer, wood carvings, jade carvings, embroidery, Shu embroidery, etc. I haven't seen Hangluo very much, but I am quite interested in intangible cultural heritage. Because it is China's inheritance since ancient times. Due to technological advancement, people like Western-style, convenient, beautiful and eye-catching items in an instant. So traditional things are gradually being forgotten. I like the author's writing, which conveys all the real life of the protagonist and the knowledge in the book, and combines it to show exquisite paintings and comprehensive introduction production. Hang Luo's beauty seemed to be right in front of my eyes, attracting me, and I slowly searched for Hang Luo's clothes. The author's meticulousness and efforts to explore in practice allowed me to see her love and support for intangible cultural heritage. The characters in the book are portrayed with flesh and blood. She is like a group of hard-working neighbors around us, working hard for a favorite thing and presenting the beauty of China to everyone! People should never forget their origins, and fallen leaves should return to their roots. As Chinese Rabbits, we must also present our country's beautiful traditions to foreign countries! They saved me from misinterpretation and took it for themselves!

How to put it? I couldn't write anything for a while, so I just talked about it openly. As a liberal arts student majoring in Chinese, I am particularly fond of our traditional culture. I was lucky enough to go to Dali to see tie-dyeing, and I was inexplicably shocked and proud. Tie-dye is also an intangible heritage. The lifelike cloth is unforgettable, it is so exquisite. Now that I have read the great works, I have learned about another intangible cultural heritage - Hangluo weaving, which is an important part of our silk and is famous as a piece of silk and satin that can breathe. I am particularly happy to be able to recognize it in this way. The author uses the form of an online novel to not only be rigorous but also vividly and interestingly describe the heroine's dream of returning to the ancient capital of Song Dynasty to inherit and carry forward the great technology of Hangluo weaving. Watching Song Ji first enter the weaving workshop and taking the lead, feeling the growth of Song Ji who is ignorant and knowing how to scold Fang Qiu is as sweet as an old father watching his daughter grow up. The writing is sophisticated, the plot is tight and ups and downs, and the details are particularly well described. It's a pity that it's a bit bad. I'm naming and criticizing the author here. The updates are unstable. It's so uncomfortable to watch. But I think that good articles must be carefully crafted and you can taste them and accept them if you endure it. Come on, I look forward to Miss Song Ji's growth.        ，
