2“Happy New Year!” The Spring Festival was ushered in the cheers of the children. The new year is approaching, and under the roots of the imperial city, the children are looking forward to the new year’s money for the new clothes, and the adults are busy paying homage to their ancestors and worshipping the gods and family reunion. You see, no matter how big or small a family is, they are busy all year long, but what they look forward to is the new year. How many Chinese souls are hooked by the word “year”!
“过年喽!”在孩子的欢呼声中迎来了春节。年关将近,皇城根下,儿童们盼着杂拌儿炮仗新衣裳压岁钱,大人们合计一年的收获,忙着祭祖拜神,合家团圆。您看一家子不论大小,一年忙到头,盼的可就是过年哪。一个“年”字,勾着多少中国人的魂儿呢!
