A 500-word composition on local folk customs.

The reason why Mongolians call the Spring Festival "Bai Yue" may be related to their worship of blue and white flowers. Blue represents the Mongolian nation itself, and white represents purity, auspiciousness and sacredness.

After the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the Spring Festival will be celebrated. Food, clothing, housing, transportation and other aspects are different in peacetime. In terms of food, we should make all kinds of fried rapeseed, especially for the Buddha, and strive for beauty. Followed by Bao jiaozi, commonly known as "yellow steamed stuffed bun" or "flat food".

New Year's Eve is the busiest day. The whole family looked refreshed in their newly made Mongolian robes. In the morning, you should sacrifice to the Buddha first, put all kinds of cream food on the altar in the shape of a small tower, and insert special honeysuckle on it. Fill twelve small copper cups with white water and light the ever-burning lamp. At the same time began to paste couplets. After dinner is prepared in the evening, find a flat ground outside the courtyard, lay a new carpet, put on a banquet, and begin to worship the ancestors. The elders read the names of their ancestors and spilled cups of wine on the ground and into the sky. After the ancestor worship, the whole family sat around the table. The younger generation toasted the elder and called the farewell wine. On this day, the whole family, regardless of sex, age, can enjoy themselves. Men play more Mongolian chess, while women and children play "sheep turn" and stay up all night until dawn.

In the early morning of the first day, when the banquet is held, the younger generation will toast first and bow to the elders. The men rode on the horses that had already been prepared and rushed to the villages and towns in groups of three or five, stringing yurts one by one. According to the custom, this kind of wine must be drunk for every respect, usually singing and dancing, and the atmosphere is warm. Men and women often take this opportunity to go horse racing, especially young men and women. The vast grassland is galloping, and the heat flow of life is running on the cold earth, which indicates endless hope in the coming year.

I hope the landlord can adopt it! ~~~
