What does Xiaonian do

Sacrifice God

The year of the 23rd of the 12th lunar month is closely related to the kitchen god. It is said that he is in charge of the management of the cooking fires in each family and is worshipped as a protection god of the family. On the 23rd of December every year, the kitchen god will ascend to heaven and report the good or bad deeds of the family to the Jade Emperor in heaven. According to the report of Kitchen God, the Jade Emperor will hand over the fate of the family in the new year. Therefore, for the family, the report of the kitchen god is of great interest. Therefore, on the night of Xiaonian, every family would offer incense to the kitchen god in the kitchen wall shrine, and provide sweet melons made of caramel and flour. In the northern part of Shanxi Province, there is a folk song that "on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, Grandpa Zaojun, you go to heaven and eat the sugar plate in your mouth. In front of the Jade Emperor, you can't say anything. When you come back to our home for the Spring Festival, you can have rice, face and clothes.".

Scissors

Paper cutting is the most popular folk activity in the new year. When the new year comes, everyone will cut and paste window flowers to prepare for the coming of the new year. There are various contents of paper cutting, such as magpie climbing plum, swallow wearing peach willow, peacock playing peony, mandarin duck playing water and so on.

Dust sweeping

Because after the new year, there are only six or seven days left for the Spring Festival, so we all continue to prepare for the new year. And sweeping the dust is also one of the Customs after childhood. In many places, the new year is designated as "house Sweeping Day", in order to remove the old and usher in the new, and remove the ominous. Therefore, in the new year, we will carefully and thoroughly clean the windows.

Eat dumplings

In addition to offering sacrifices to the kitchen, people also pay attention to eating dumplings on the day of Xiaonian. There are more cakes and buckwheat noodles in the mountains. In the southeast of Shanxi Province, it is popular to eat fried corn. There is a saying in the folk proverb, "23, do not eat fried corn. At the beginning of the year - one pot pour".
