Pasting Spring Festival Couplets <br /> People believe that there are door gods on the door, and couplets must be pasted wherever there are gods or doors, so Spring Festival couplets are the most numerous and have the most comprehensive content. Every household has to post Spring Festival couplets. One of the sources of Spring Festival couplets is peach charms. Originally people used them to ward off evil spirits. Later, wooden carvings of door gods were painted and hung on peach wood beside the door. It was later simplified to writing the door god's name on a peach wood board. It should be noted that the word "Fu" on the door should never be pasted upside down. 2. Bathing and haircut <br /> There is a saying among the people that "whether you are rich or poor, you should get a haircut during the New Year." To welcome the New Year, both adults and children should bathe and get a haircut. 3. Staying up all night<br /> On New Year’s Eve, it is traditional to stay up all night to welcome the arrival of the new year, which is called staying up all night. Of course, the advice depends on your physical condition. 4. Check all the light bulbs in your home and replace any that are not working <br /> Turn on all the lights at night, preferably for three days and three nights. Things not to do: 1. Do not scold children or quarrel on New Year’s Eve, otherwise it will bring bad luck to the coming year. 2.
