Yongtai Spring Festival customs

The Spring Festival in Yongtai is commonly known as "the New Year".

The twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month is a big market day in some places in Yongtai. People from the villages around the market go to the market to buy new year's goods. Cigarettes, wine, and laborers at home start to kill pigs. On the 26th of the twelfth lunar month, people who did not raise pigs would go to the market to cut a piece of meat and take it home. Therefore, stewed pork on the 26th of the twelfth lunar month was also called "the twelfth lunar month, killing pigs and cutting new year's meat."

On the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, married daughters will return to their parents’ homes to “send off the New Year”. Usually, they will give roosters, pig’s feet, noodles, rice cakes and big fried fish, which means that the daughter respects her parents. Don’t forget the kindness of your parents in raising you.

For breakfast on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we will eat "New Year's rice" steamed on New Year's Eve, which means there will be plenty in the coming year; we will also eat Taiping, which symbolizes peace throughout the year, and we will also drink the noodle soup, which means good luck in the coming year. weather.
