20 1 1 composition for the Spring Festival
I didn't have much happiness in the Spring Festival of my childhood, although it was full of flavor at that time. The so-called taste of the year is reflected in the busyness that began one month before the Chinese New Year. Although I am young, I have to be busy with adults during the New Year. My father is a lazy man, and my siblings are still young. As the eldest of four brothers and sisters, the heavy work naturally fell on my mother and me. Busy with the new year. At that time, all the new year's goods were made by my own family. Steaming rice cakes, steamed buns, making tofu and baking pancakes are all very delicate jobs. It's simple to say, but it's a series of procedures to do. Some people have to drag things to the mill with a flatbed and grind them into powder before they start to do it. Some even use a stone mill to grind it out, which is cumbersome and complicated. So I followed my mother, getting up early and getting greedy, and I couldn't finish all the work until New Year's Eve, and then I was busy frying meatballs, peanuts and melon seeds. These jobs are very simple, I am busy alone.
On New Year's Eve, the family sat in front of jiaozi. Actually, my mother and I are busy. What impressed me the most was that jiaozi was vegetarian, with some cabbage and vermicelli, and some pickled cabbage and vermicelli. Because the family is poor, it is rare to weigh a few pounds of meat during the New Year. My mother is reluctant to eat, so she keeps it for the guests at home after the Chinese New Year. At that time, I always wondered how good it would be to eat jiaozi with meat during the Chinese New Year. After packing jiaozi, my mother cleaned up at home, so I took my sister-in-law to the neighbor's house to watch the party. When I was in high school, I could afford a TV at home, which was in the mid-1990s. I used to watch the party at my neighbor's house.
If there is happiness in 2008, it is that you can get back a lot of snacks, fried dough sticks, sweets, melon seeds and peanuts when you visit on the first day of the New Year. This is the greatest happiness of the New Year. My family is poor and I can't wear new clothes for the New Year, so until now, I have no idea about wearing new clothes for the New Year. At that time, I could not get lucky money. I have never received lucky money from my parents since I was so big. Children from poor families have been masters of their own affairs for a long time. At that time, I never envied my friends getting lucky money. I can understand my parents' difficulties.
Looking back now, the Chinese New Year was definitely not as interesting as it is now. Compared with then, it is almost as comfortable as in heaven now. But why do we always feel that the taste of the year is weak and we can't find the original feeling? Maybe our hearts are cold. Material affluence has improved our life; The busy pace disturbed our mood. We can't stand loneliness and busyness. Too busy, we will complain too tired; If we are too idle, we will feel too bored. We have everything materially, only to find that our hearts are empty in the end. I don't know if this is a kind of sadness.
Maybe I always had a lot of regrets when I was a child, so although the taste of Chinese New Year is not strong now, I still cherish and enjoy this feeling. How nice it is to be free to control your time and mood every day. No matter what others do, the taste of Chinese New Year comes from oneself. Enjoy the happiness of the festival, keep a leisure, have a meditation, be more careful and enthusiastic, and still have a happy Spring Festival.
