Old customs of old age

Every year from December 26 to 29 of the lunar calendar, people in our town have the habit of cooking and eating. According to legend, people can only grow some potatoes and other cereals at the beginning to satisfy their hunger. In order to make full use of the grain, people use wooden mallet to pound the coarse grain into powder, add water to stir it into paste, and steam it to increase its volume several times, making it a kind of food such as cassava paste and corn paste. Later, people have succeeded in planting rice on this land, and successive good harvests. In order to celebrate the harvest and change the taste, people pounded rice into flour and mixed it with simple fillings such as vegetables to make food with a certain shape and taste, which is called "Zhen". At the beginning, people only used stemmed rice (commonly known as "sticky rice") powder. Later, it was found that sticky rice powder had stronger viscosity, easier shape and better taste, so it was specially made from glutinous rice powder. Year after year, it gradually became a custom. The last day of December in the lunar calendar is new year's Eve, which is called New Year's Eve or new year's Eve. On this day, production activities in rural areas basically stopped. Every household began to paste Spring Festival couplets and door gods. Lishi was pasted on the door forehead. A piece of red paper was also pasted on stoves, water tanks, pig pens, cattle pens and grain barrels to show good luck. In addition, some sacrificial activities were held, such as preparing chicken, pork, fish and other food and wine, burning paper and incense to sacrifice ancestral halls, temples, state, ancestors, kitchen king and so on. for dinner on New Year's Eve, the family sit around and have a reunion dinner. The reunion dinner is basically the biggest meal of the year. People who go out usually go home for new year's Eve and have dinner with their families.
