Remember, when observing the Lunar New Year, entertainment should be moderate.

If all-night entertainment is more harmful, it will often make the cerebral cortex excessively excited, leading to insomnia, mental stress and high blood pressure.
Secondly, don't say unlucky things, especially for the elderly at home, which is very taboo.

We often visit relatives and friends during the Spring Festival, so knowing proper table manners can make you leave a good impression on others.

When you serve tea, you usually hold the ear of the cup in one hand and the bottom of the cup in the other, and serve tea to the guests.
When guests leave, they should generally be polite. If the guest wants to leave, wait for the guest to get up and send him away. When a guest says he wants to leave, the host should not stand up at once. Some guests often bring gifts, so you should respond when you send them away, such as expressing gratitude, asking guests not to bring gifts in the future, or thanking some gifts accordingly. Don't be indifferent.
