Introduction to the PPT content of the Chinese New Year’s Eve custom of keeping the year old:

1. The origin of keeping the year old

Shou Sui, also known as Shou Suihuo, Zhao Sui, etc., has a long history and is one of the annual customs among Chinese people. On New Year's Eve, people watch the New Year's Eve. The main folk activities include lighting the New Year's Fire and keeping the New Year's Fire. That is, all the houses are lit with candles and the whole family gathers to welcome the New Year. On New Year's Eve, lights and candles are lit all night long, which is called "illumination waste". It is said that after lighting up the New Year in this way, the family's wealth will be enriched in the coming year.

In some areas, staying up all night (staying up on New Year's Eve) is called staying up all night, that is, on New Year's Eve, the whole family gets together to have a New Year's Eve dinner.

Light candles or oil lamps, sit around the stove and chat, and keep vigil all night, which symbolizes driving away all evil plagues.

Origin of word

Heading: stay up until the end of the year (Pinyin: shǒu suì)

"Feng Tu Ji" from the Jin and Zhou Dynasties: "The customs of Shu are to ask each other when they are old, which is called "Sui Sui"; to invite each other for wine and food to say goodbye; to stay awake until the end of New Year's Eve, which is called "staying up".

Meng Haoran of the Tang Dynasty wrote a poem titled "Being Happy on New Year's Eve": "Every family should not be lying down to watch the New Year's Eve, thinking about the dream soul."

Zhu Shuzhen's poem "New Year's Eve" of the Song Dynasty: "The cold winter is about to go, but I still linger, sitting alone and frequently pouring cups to keep the New Year's Eve."

Qing Ji Yun's "Yuewei Thatched Cottage Notes·Luanyang Summer Record Three": "Halfway through, I lost my footing and fell into a dry well. I was on a remote path in the wilderness, and every family was watching the New Year's Eve. There were no pedestrians on the road. I shouted and shouted, but no one answered."

Xu Yunuo's "A Broken Shoe": "We were cold and hungry, and we were about to prepare some hot water to drink. Suddenly, the county governor came again and immediately forced us to go to the city.

The origin of staying up late

It is said that the youngest daughter of the Jade Emperor went down to the underworld and became the "Grandma of the Stove King". She was well aware of the sufferings of the people and often brought back food, drink, clothing and other things from the sky in the name of visiting relatives. Starting from the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, "Grandma Kitchen King" began to collect the items needed for the New Year's Eve dinner. She did not collect them all until New Year's Eve, and rushed back to the world overnight to spend the festival with the mortal people. People stay up late to welcome her back to earth.

Source legend----seeking good luck and avoiding bad luck

There is a legend about "staying up until the end of the year". This story is widely circulated among the people and can be said to be known to all women and children. It is said that there is a monster named "Nian" who will come out and hurt people every New Year's Eve in Niangen. But it only harms those who are asleep, and has no effect on those who are awake. So in order to avoid its harm, people stayed up all night on New Year's Eve, treating the night when the "year" was raging as a gateway to stay up. To kill time, the family gathers together to talk, with the intention of praying for a safe night. After a long time, the custom of staying up late on New Year's Eve became formed.

Get rid of the plague

Staying up late on the New Year's Eve is also said to drive away evil plagues.

Legend has it that evil spirits and plague viruses are afraid of lights and fires, so people brightly light up lights and set off firecrackers on New Year's Eve to drive away evil plagues that are harmful to people.

2. Documentation

"Fengtu Ji" by Zhou Chu of the Western Jin Dynasty

Keeping the year old on New Year's Eve is one of the most important Spring Festival activities. The custom of keeping the year old has been around for a long time. The earliest record can be found in "Feng Tu Ji" written by Zhou Chu in the Western Jin Dynasty: On New Year's Eve, each person greets each other with gifts, which is called "giving the new year"; "Dividing the year old"; everyone stays up all night waiting for the dawn, which is called "keeping the year old".

Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, wrote a poem about "staying up late":

"The cold leaves the winter snow, and the warmth brings the spring breeze."

To this day, people are still used to staying up late on New Year's Eve to welcome the new year.

"Records of Sui Sui in the Middle Qin Dynasty" records: "There are no records in the three dynasties about keeping the year old.

In the Tang Dynasty, Du Fu's poem "Du Wei's House Staying New Year's Eve" said, "Watching the New Year's Eve in the Xian family's pepper plate is already singing the flowers." It is suspected that it dates from the Tang Dynasty. "

There are many descriptions of the custom of keeping the year old in Tang poetry. Bai Juyi's poem "Staying New Year's Eve among Guests":

"There is no need to drink when staying up late on New Year's Eve, and tears will fill your face because of homesickness." Meng Haoran has a poem that "continues the Ming Dynasty to draw candles, stay up late for a long feast".

By the Song Dynasty, the practice of staying up late on New Year's Eve was common in both urban and rural areas. Su Dongpo's "Children are forced not to sleep, but stay up all night and have fun", which describes the scene of staying up late on New Year's Eve.

"Tokyo Menghualu" records: "On New Year's Eve... the families of scholars and common people would sit around the fire and not sleep until the end of the day, which is called staying up late."

Interestingly, in Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, etc., due to the influence of China, there is a saying of staying up late on New Year's Eve. Even Europe, America and Africa have similar customs.

As the saying goes: "Gold is easy to get, but time is hard to keep." Love life and cherish time. This may be the reason why people all over the world stay up late!

Su Shi stayed up late

If you want to know that dying at the end of your life is like going to the snake.

Half of the scales are gone, no one can cover them.

I want to tie it to its tail, but I know what I can do despite my diligence.

The children were forced not to sleep, but stayed together all night and had a good time.

Don't sing the rooster in the morning, and be afraid of the drums even more.

After sitting for a long time, the lights dimmed and I watched the Beidou tilt.

There will be no time next year, I am afraid that my worries will be wasted.

If you work hard today, you can still be proud of the young man.

3. The custom of keeping the year old

Then the lamp shines

On New Year's Eve before the new year, all houses are lit with candles to illuminate the new year, which is called "illuminating waste". It is said that after being illuminated in this way, the family will be rich in wealth in the coming year.

Stepping on the New Year

Glue sesame stalks into ingot shapes rolled up with yellow paper and pile them into a bundle, which is called a "treasure bowl." Then, the whole family would crush it with their feet, using the word "broken" to mean "year". They also borrowed the auspicious meaning of sesame seeds blooming day by day to wish the family prosperity and express their blessings and wishes for the new year.

Stay up late

In northern my country, keeping up the New Year's Eve starts with the New Year's Eve dinner. This New Year's Eve dinner should be eaten slowly, starting from the time when the lanterns are turned on. Some people have to eat until late at night. On this night of "two years in one night, two years in the fifth hour", the family reunites and gathers together happily. The whole family sat together, and the table was filled with refreshments and fruits. When making offerings during the New Year, a large plate of apples is indispensable. This is called "peace and peace".

entertainment

In ancient times, on New Year's Eve, families would get together to have New Year's Eve dinner and talk and laugh. There are also some ordinary people who play pai gow, throw dice, bet on stud, play mahjong, etc. Modern Chinese people watch TV programs as a family, such as the Spring Festival Gala, waiting for the arrival of the New Year.

4. Precautions

Entertainment is moderate. There are rich and colorful Spring Festival movies and TV programs. On New Year's Eve, relatives and friends gather together to stay up late and play cards and mahjong happily. This often breaks the daily routine established by the elderly and is harmful to their health. Entertainment that stays up all night is even more harmful. , often over-exciting the cerebral cortex, causing insomnia, mental stress, and elevated blood pressure. It is recommended that the elderly do not break the law of the biological clock and sleep on time.

Drink in moderation

Relatives and friends gather together and drink wine to observe the New Year. Drinking some wine, beer, rice wine, or low-alcohol liquor can add to the fun, increase the festive atmosphere, and promote blood circulation, which is beneficial to the elderly. But too much is not good for the stomach, liver, heart, kidneys and nervous system. It is even more harmful to the elderly with blood pressure, heart, liver and kidney diseases.

emotionally stable

There are many happy events during the Spring Festival, such as gatherings of long-lost relatives and friends to watch the New Year, and funny TV programs, which can easily make people excited and agitated, causing accelerated heartbeat, accelerated blood flow, spasm of small arteries, and rise in blood pressure, leading to cerebral hemorrhage, angina pectoris, or myocardial infarction. Therefore, the elderly must control their emotions.

Eat less

In some places, people keep the New Year's Eve on New Year's Eve. They start cooking dumplings after midnight and go to bed after eating the dumplings. At this time, the elderly must not be greedy. Because most of the people have eaten a rich dinner during the day, some greasy foods are difficult to digest. If you eat more dumplings that are not easy to digest, it will not be good for the stomach or pancreas.
