Due to local customs, the festivals called Xiaonian are also different. The main folk activities during the Little New Year include pasting Spring Festival couplets, sweeping the house, and offering sacrifices to the kitchen god. The concept and date of Xiaonian vary from place to place. It is the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month in the north and the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month in the south. In Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, both "the 24th day of the twelfth lunar month" and "the night before New Year's Eve" are called Xiaonian. In Nanjing, the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month is called Xiaonian. In parts of Yunnan, it is the 16th day of the first lunar month, and in some ethnic minority areas in the southwest and north it is New Year's Eve. The Little New Year also means that people begin to prepare New Year's goods and get ready to have a good new year in a clean manner. It means that the new year will have a new look and expresses the Chinese working people's good wishes to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new, and to welcome good luck and fortune. What are the customs of Xiaonian?Little New Year customs: Pasting the Kitchen God’s portrait <br /> The Kitchen God worship is actually the most important activity on the day of Little New Year. In addition to offering sugar melons and cakes, the Kitchen God’s portrait must also be replaced. While taking down the old image of the Kitchen God, every household also has to "invite" back a new one.Little New Year customs: Spring cleaning "Dust" and "Chen" are homophones of each other, so sweeping the dust is intended to get rid of the old and welcome the new, and to remove bad luck. Use a broom to sweep the walls clean, scrub the tables and chairs, and rinse the floor... Every household must clean thoroughly without leaving any dead corners, making sure the windows and tables are spotless. At the same time, there is a saying on the day of Xiaonian that "whether you have money or not, you should get a haircut to celebrate the New Year." Little New Year customs: setting off firecrackers <br /> During the Little New Year, there is also the custom of setting off firecrackers, because this is the first shot before the New Year and is very important. Chinese people like to have fun during festivals, and the sound of firecrackers can create a festive atmosphere. However, due to factors such as air pollution, many cities have banned the sale and setting off of firecrackers during the Little New Year in recent years. In fact, the most important thing is that as long as people are reunited, the home will be lively and the festive atmosphere will be created. Minor New Year customs: Avoiding random marriages <br /> After the 23rd, people believe that the gods have gone to heaven and there are no taboos. There is no need to choose a date to marry a wife or a daughter, which is called a hasty marriage. There is a saying in the folk song, "At the end of the year, villages are busy with weddings, and Yichun’s invitations are sent to celebrate the spring. Sisters whisper to each other in front of the lamp, and this year’s staying up late is the bridal chamber." |
