Northeast County - New Year Customs

The Spring Festival of the Year of the Tiger is getting closer to us, and there is a saying in the northeast called "After the eighth year is the year, and one year and one year are reunited." So, what are the customs of Northeasterners for the New Year? Starting today, DaXiao will use his own home as an example to talk about the New Year customs of the northeast county in the 1960s and 1970s. The New Year customs in the northeast county are so large that they are divided into two time periods - the busy new year and the new year.

First, the custom of the year - busy year

Busy years generally begin as soon as you enter the Waxing Moon Gate, and you have to be busy until the twenty-eighth and ninth day of the Waxing Moon. The main tasks of the busy year are to buy New Year goods, make "delicious food" for the New Year, paint walls, paste sheds, do hygiene, and remove and wash bedding and make new clothes to wear for the New Year.

(9) Take a bath and cut your hair

Bathing is no more common thing for Northeasterners now. However, in the winter of the 1960s and 1970s, bathing was a luxury for Northeasterners.

In the small county where I live, the average person, whether it is an adult or a child, can only go to the bathhouse before the Spring Festival in the winter to take a thorough bath, usually can only be ten and a half days on the stove to burn some hot water, wash the hair, wash the neck, and finally wash the feet by the way, and so on after washing and then look at the water in the washbasin, it is really a child to drop the coal pile Ah - black, there is also a layer of wrinkles (spring) floating on the top, that is simply dare not look. Therefore, the New Year's bath has also become a "big thing" in our busy year.

Our family cut their hair, bathing is so big that it is such a procedure, the day before the bath, to the shaving shed first shave the head, we half size to try to be as short as possible, because we have a custom in the northeast called the first month of shaving the head of the dead uncle, so in the northeast of the first month is not shaved, until the second of February shaving the dragon head can not be shaved again.

The time of bathing is generally around the twenty-eighth day of the Waxing Moon, if it is too early it is easy to bury it, because the year before the year, it is everyone who has such an idea, therefore, twenty-seven eighty-nine these days there are many people, so the day of the bath to get up early in the morning, the black grunt rushed to the bathhouse, but not necessarily catch up with the first wave.

In our family, my mother and sister usually go together, and the two also have a care. My father ran a single gang by himself, and some of them went to the bathhouse to know people. Our brothers went together, and then we didn't have to take the big ones with the small ones, and each of us went to find a small companion for each of them. The first night the parents gave each of us 8 cents, let us go to the shop to buy a bread ourselves, and the next day when we were hungry in the shower, we were worried about it.

The small county where we live is a state-run bathhouse, a door is a ticket office, the ticket is 5 cents, after buying the ticket to the end of the corridor, respectively, the men's pool and the women's pool two doors, men and women are lined up separately, waiting for the ticket to enter in order. There are many people taking baths in the New Year, if you can't catch up with the first wave, you have to wait in line, and after washing out, put one into one.

The men's hall of the bathhouse is about 150 square meters, with more than 50 train box beds, and the bedside is a gusset cover, and after taking off the cotton jacket and cotton pants, you can enter the bathroom to wash. The bathing room is about 80 square meters, and there are two pools in it, one with a high water temperature and one with a lower water temperature. Our children are generally soaking in a lower pool, after soaking well, they rub each other, after rubbing down to the shower head, wash away the rubbed down, rub each other again, see if there is any wrinkles, if there is no good to open the Yizi (soap), the whole body must be beaten, the back by the small partner to help beat, the soap after the flush, the soap foam washed off after the bath is washed, we are a little hungry, pick up the towel, soap to go to the lounge, thinking about bread, bread for us that year is the best pastry.

On the Internet, from time to time, you can see some people saying that we in the northeast do not pay attention to hygiene, do not want to take a bath, the heart is not a taste, not that we are not willing to take a bath, there is no condition, dear comrade brother. At that time, our northeast did not allow us to bathe every day, especially in winter, whether it was living conditions, climatic conditions and economic conditions. Besides, bathing every day is a matter of the last century, and now you take things to talk about, is it a little unkind?
