When there is a power outage at home, all the electric lights and other electrical appliances will be shut down. If you want to have a light at this time, candles are the best choice for people. Compared with electric lamps, candles not only light

It is easy to use and the price has become low. Many entire cities and societies have not yet broken away from the atmosphere of thrift. When people face various choices, the first thing they consider is thrift.

Therefore, if people live in the home for a long time, people will store some candles in their daily life during this period, as a source of light during power outages. Gu Cheng has never encountered this situation, plus the time he lived in Zhoushi

I have never encountered a major power outage, so I don’t really understand this common sense of life.

But the appearance of these candles also aroused his memories of some days in his childhood and his cherishment of some things in his childhood, so he subconsciously bought a whole pack of candles and put them in the shopping bag next to him as a storage for the Chinese New Year at home this year.

, whether it is used in daily life or to enhance the New Year atmosphere, it can be regarded as something that can be used.

Continuing to walk forward, we naturally saw door painting stalls placed everywhere. For every family in China, door painting is almost an indispensable supplement to their Spring Festival, and this custom

It has been passed down from the early morning period to the present, and has a history of thousands of years. It is indeed not that easy to suddenly let people abandon this habit.

When Gu Cheng saw these things, he remembered that he had always felt that something was missing at home. What it was, it turned out to be because he had almost purchased other things, except for the most important firecrackers and doors.

Draw these customary items.

For every family, when the Spring Festival is approaching, it is better to clean up the house, replace the door paintings on New Year's Eve, and put two firecrackers before going to bed as a farewell to the last year.

Such a warm custom.

After thinking that he lacked the purchase of these things, Gu Cheng immediately stood there and thought about how many free doors and windows there were in his home. According to the current custom of every household, all doors and windows that open to the outside must be covered with dust.

Posting something similar, after all, it’s already the Spring Festival. The door still looks empty, which makes it look particularly weird among the entire neighbor group. Even I feel that the Chinese New Year atmosphere seems to have become a lot duller.

.

When buying door paintings, you should also buy a few statues of gods with unique personalities, such as the God of Wealth and the Kitchen God. This is almost related to what every family thinks about. One is the future of the home, and the other is the family's meal.

The problem.

Chinese people have always been very simple when it comes to these issues. Even if they have a little bit of belief or admiration, it is too far away from their lives, and the wishes that everyone prays for are very different.

On the one hand, I hope that next year will be even better than this year, and that the entire family's financial fortune will become more prosperous than this year. At the same time, I also pray that the family can always eat at the same table safely and stably.

It is indispensable to need the blessing of the Kitchen God.

Of course, even if Gu Cheng has no common sense in life, he still needs to be cautious in his words and deeds when buying these things, and cannot say anything. After all, even if he has never heard of similar things, he has received similar information from some elders.

The transfer of experience.

For example, when buying a door painting, you must buy a pair and not a single one, because if you buy a single one, it may have a bad impression or reflection. The reason for buying a double is because good things come in pairs, and it will be such a happy day again.

At this time, everything should move closer to a place that makes people happy or symbolizes auspiciousness.

For another example, when it comes to these gods, you must pay special attention to your words. You must say "please" and not "buy", because buying seems to be too derogatory or disrespectful to these gods, but "please"

This word can actually show your respectful attitude as a believer.

These things are still relatively important small details in Chinese New Year customs. No matter whether you are an atheist or not, or whether you respect these gods or not, at this time, you should follow the traditions of the entire society and do as the Romans do, and try not to let them go.

I seem to be too unconventional. A culture has been circulating for so many years and has become an indispensable part of people's lives. Sometimes these small details not only express people's yearning for a better life, but also have a certain truth.

of.

As a young man, Gu Cheng's mentality is not as clear-cut and refined as others think, or he is incompatible with the entire era. In fact, his way of dealing with problems is more like those of middle-aged men who have experienced a lot of things and vicissitudes of life.

, sometimes these traditional customs are as close to everyone's daily living habits as possible, and they will not do something so unconventional.

After purchasing these New Year paintings and statues of gods, Gu Cheng was already full of gains. He was preparing to buy some random things. The shopping bags he took out specially had become a burden for the two of them to go shopping. Simply talking to those who set up stalls

The aunts say hello, temporarily store these things in each other's stalls, and then take them out after the shopping is over. This has become a way to solve the problem now.

Gu Cheng's request is not too difficult for the aunts who set up stalls, and they often encounter this kind of request or similar help in daily life. In addition, the other party just came to their stall

There was no shortage of spending money, so naturally he agreed happily and cheerfully. Gu Cheng, who was temporarily relieved of his burden, continued to move towards the next street with an even happier mood.

As I said earlier, Gu Cheng has always been paranoid or unable to stop himself when it comes to purchasing. So even though he warned himself repeatedly when he went out, he only needed to buy something he could use.

Buy as little as possible from those sundries that are not used at all. After all, there are too many similar things in your home, but when you go to the street, you will do what you originally thought about in your heart.
