The significance of off-year cleaning
There is a folk saying that "after Laba Festival, it is the New Year". When Laba Festival is over, many people begin to pack up new year's goods. In fact, it is to clean up all the dirt left over from the past year, and it is also to clean up all the unhappiness and disappointment of last year to welcome a new state.
The cleaning day will be more detailed and comprehensive, and everything that is not easy to clean, such as dust on the roof and cobwebs, will be cleaned up. At the same time, the indoor furniture will be scrubbed again and the sheets will be cleaned. Some people will also paint walls, doors and windows with white powder to make indoor and outdoor look brand-new. The room is clean and the road is clean.
