Chinese New Year's Eve: ancestor worship, keep the age
Chinese New Year's Eve, Suzhou people generally have to give their ancestors a "festival", that is, to worship the ancestors, in order to thank them for their protection of their children and grandchildren, and pray for a smooth coming year. It is necessary to wait until the ancestors have finished eating, and then the family can sit around and eat Chinese New Year's Eve meal.
After eating Chinese New Year's Eve meal, the family sits around and watches the New Year, and the children want to harvest the money!
New Year's Day: Eat sugar rice cake dumplings
On the first day of the Chinese New Year, everyone puts on new clothes and starts a good year. The breakfast on the first day of the New Year is generally tangyuan (or small yuanzi) and sugar rice cake, which means that the new year is reunited and happy.
In the "Qing Jia Lu", it is recorded that the pastries, fruits and money given to each other by adults and children during the Spring Festival are called "pressing the age plate". The elders gave the children a hundred copper coins strung up in red ropes, called "pressing the old money". Put oranges, lychees and other fruits on the pillow, called "pressing the old fruit", and eat it on the first day of the New Year, asking for a good color, which means the auspicious New Year.
The second day of the Chinese New Year: go to relatives and drink Yuanbao tea
Old Suzhou hospitality must drink "Yuanbao Tea"! Put green fruit (olive) in the tea, or put a green fruit on top of the tea lid, and also use a gold lacquer plate to pack the fruit to offer customers, saying "congratulations to many wishes".
The fifth day of the Chinese New Year: Suzhou people greet the god of wealth
Nowadays, Suzhou people welcome the god of wealth to abandon the firecrackers that disturb the people and pollute the environment, and the electronic firecrackers in the WeChat group are not busy.
Fifteenth day of the first month: Lantern Festival
On the Lantern Festival, everyone eats the Lantern on this day, goes to the street to see the lanterns, guesses the riddles, and women have to go to the suburbs to walk the three bridges together to pray for health and happiness... It's a lot of fun.

What are the different customs of suzhou?
Let's take a look
In Zhangjiagang, after the breakfast of the first day of the New Year, the children of the family will carry bamboo rice baskets or cloth bags, walk from village to village to alley to "beg for food", called "begging for a hundred grains".
When families saw children "begging for food", they all greeted each other with smiles and gave rice, rice, pastries, steamed buns, candy, etc. It is said that after eating "hundred family grains", children can get the protection of the hundred road gods and immortals, and their lives will be safe.
In Wuzhong District, Suzhou, the sacrifice of the fierce general is a traditional folk custom in the Taihu Lake Basin, which arose in the Ming Dynasty. Mainly in Dongshan and Xukou. Traditional folk activities contain the most simple wishes of ordinary villagers. This taste of the new year has become a beautiful scenery on the historical style of Wuzhong.
