Before the festival, our houses have to be cleaned and we need to buy new clothes for the new year.
On the eve, my family goes to my grandparents’ home for a reunion dinner. Our family usually has jiaozi, fish,
niangao and a great many dishes.
On the first day of our New Year, people wear their new clothes and visit family and friends. Children will receive red packets filled with “lucky” money. That’s one of my favorite parts of this festival.
It’s my favorite festival because I enjoy spending time with my relatives. It makes me feel very happy!
Yours truly,
