New Year's Day is coming, and every house is full of joy and lights, and our house is no exception.
On New Year's Day, I came to my grandmother's house with my mom and dad. In the morning, the street was crowded with people, and there were always sounds of "clang" and "ding". I asked my sister strangely, "Sister, what are so many people doing?" Sister smiled, but did not say, so I made every effort to squeeze into the crowd, it turned out that a pair of people are dancing dragon lanterns. The uncles and aunts who danced the dragon lanterns wore neat white clothes and red pants, and they grasped the dragon lanterns, which swung in a continuous undulating motion, and the sound of gongs and drums accompanied the dragon lanterns. They were crossing every street and alley to pray for people's peace. At this time, we followed the procession to the river, where they were gathering around the big boat on the river and praying for prosperity. When the dragon lanterns were over, we listened to the distant sound of gongs and drums and watched the vague figures.
In the evening, our family sat on stools and ate a reunion dinner. After dinner, we stood on the upstairs balcony and watched the fireworks downstairs. The first release is the basket, the basket is composed of six round holes, the basket first "Z" of the sparks, and suddenly "bang" sound into the sky, exploded into a lot of colorful sparks, so sprayed six times, as if it is blessing people! Sister think it looks good, can't wait to pick up the Butterfly King, sister hurriedly lit, grabbed in the hand, "puff" sound, fireworks to a light butterfly, dancing in the sky, and finally "pop" sound, divided into a number of sparks, in the sky! Slowly, gently, floating down to the ground. I took out another gold and jade, holding in my hand, "bang", "bang", ten gunshots, ringing through the night sky, symbolizing our good luck, happiness and contentment.
The sky was getting dark, our family went to the room to watch the Spring Festival gala with great joy, talking and laughing, what a pleasant Spring Festival ah!
