Rebirth of Fortune Soars

Chapter 516: The Spring Festival is different

I don't know how long Qin Feng and Namie Amuro's stomachs gurgled together.

"Puff!" Amuro Namie looked embarrassed, but he was secretly happy.

Qin Feng smiled.

"I'm hungry, but during the Chinese New Year, that's it. No matter when, there are a lot of vegetables in the refrigerator!" Qin Feng said with a smile, "Well, I'll show you what's in the kitchen. food!"

"Well, then I'm going to fight!" Amuro Namie smiled and nodded.

"Then you go and wait for me first, I'll change my clothes!" Qin Feng said.

You must know that this night, Qin Feng had both hands in the bed, and he did not dare to come out. No way, there are two girls in his arms.

"Well, good!" Amuro Namie smiled, went out and closed the door, Qin Feng let out a long sigh.

Look at this time, the two women are already asleep, lying on the bed like kittens, not well-behaved.

Qin Feng got up, got out of bed quietly, and put on his clothes. But after thinking about it, he came back and put on Shen Manli's pajamas. Otherwise, if I wake up, naked, sleeping with Ihano, I don't know what will happen.

Of course, Qin Feng must admit that he also had a bit of bad thoughts. Before this, but the wolf's heart was very angry, if it weren't disturbed by Amuro Namie, Qin Feng didn't know what he would do. At this moment, it's time to collect some interest.

Gee tut! Qin Feng must admit that his squad leader has really grown up. But Qin Feng didn't dare to look more, for fear of awakening the second daughter.

After getting dressed, they put the two on the pillows, turned off the lights, and went out quietly.

"Look, these dishes are prepared by our family during the Chinese New Year!" Qin Feng said with a smile, "This Spring Festival, there will be many relatives at home, and then, we will prepare a lot of food, drink, and return. There are snacks. Occasionally, there will be a mahjong table at home, ready to play mahjong, poker or something!"

"It's interesting!" Amuro Namie said with a smile, "We Japanese New Year, although it is also very lively, but there are not so many people! And it is not the lunar calendar, we are the solar calendar!"

Lunar New Year! Qin Feng understands this. After all, after staying in Japan for a while, I have some understanding of some Japanese customs.

In fact, Japan celebrates the Spring Festival. As a celestial country, some countries around China are all affected by China’s customs, and they celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Spring Festival. Especially in Japan, before the Han Dynasty, Japan had learned from China, mainly adopting the method of "inviting in" and obtaining advanced technological civilization from the Chinese people who went to Japan. After the Han Dynasty, Japan began to send people to China to actively learn advanced culture. In the Tang Dynasty, the enthusiasm for studying Chinese in Japan gradually increased.

Since the end of the 7th century, Japan has used the Chinese calendar and introduced all Chinese festivals. Of course, the Spring Festival is no exception. On the 30th day of the Chinese Lunar New Year, Japanese New Year habits are similar to Chinese New Year.

But in the 19th century, things changed.

In Asia in the mid-19th century, Japan was in the last shogunate-the Tokugawa shogunate period. The powerful Tokugawa shogunate implemented a "country-locking policy", prohibiting foreign missionaries, merchants, and civilians from entering Japan, and also forbidding Japanese foreigners from returning to Japan, and even prohibiting the creation of ships suitable for ocean voyages.

However, in some economically developed areas, the buds of capitalism emerged, which impacted the feudal natural economy and fundamentally shook the foundation of the shogunate's rule. The businessmen felt that the old system was severely restricting their development, so they began to call for the reform of the political system to form an alliance with the feudal lords, warriors, and grassroots farmers.

After a series of wars, under the command of Emperor Meiji, the Japanese people overthrew the rule of the Tokugawa shogunate and established a constitutional monarchy. Subsequently, Emperor Meiji carried out a series of reform measures. Among these measures, one of them is to abolish the Spring Festival.

Was this because it was Huaxia at the time, that is, the Manchu government was too ignorant and backward, and wanted to draw a clear line with the Manchu government, or was it because the Japanese government of the Meiji Restoration era felt that it was too powerful and wanted to be in line with the past Draw a line?

This is naturally not!

The reason is funny.

Before the Meiji Restoration, government officials received monthly "monthly salaries", but there was a leap month in the lunar calendar every few years, and it was paid out in thirteen months. At that time, the new Meiji regime was facing the construction of modernization, requiring huge amounts of funds, and the national treasury was empty.

As a result, the Meiji government issued the "Edict to Change Calendar" on November 9, 1872, and decided to abolish the lunar calendar and issue a solar calendar. The upcoming December day was used as January 1, 187. From then on, various festivals and other old calendars The month and day shall be implemented according to the corresponding date in the new calendar. The result of the revised calendar is to save the government two months of fiscal expenditure, which has largely solved the financial difficulties for the government.

Therefore, the Japanese authorities ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ amended the calendar in order to save money. Not for any reason, but for money.

Of course, although the calendar has been revised and the Spring Festival is no longer celebrated, but in modern times, most Japanese people, on the day of the Chinese New Year, after work and after get off work, will find a Chinese restaurant, go to dinner, and spend a year together!

However, although there is no statutory Lunar New Year, December 1 of the Gregorian calendar is actually the Japanese New Year.

On New Year's Day, every family decorates their houses with pine and cypress. The night of December 31 is "In addition to the night". Every family eats Tuanyuan mustard wheat noodles that night, because noodles represent longevity. Except at night, people are waiting for midnight at home or in temples. This is the same as the Chinese people waiting to hear the New Year's bell, but Japan's New Year's bell is unique.

At twelve o'clock, temples all over Japan have to ring one hundred and eight bells, and the deep sound of bells echoes over the Japanese archipelago. After the ringing of the "In addition to the night bell", people cherished different long-cherished wishes, and went to the shrines and temples in an endless stream to visit gods and worship the Buddha, and pay a New Year greeting to each other the next day.

"Then have a pure Chinese New Year!" Qin Feng said with a smile, "The dumplings we ate tonight, which means reunion, but you see, there are all dishes in the refrigerator!"

Qin Feng opened the refrigerator, and it was full of dishes prepared at home for the Spring Festival.

At this time, domestic refrigerators had no side-by-side refrigerators. Although Europe and the United States already had them, they did not exist in China. Qin Feng didn't bother to get it. Therefore, at home, I bought two double-door refrigerators and put them together. They are considered side-by-side refrigerators.

Inside, there are two refrigerators filled with new year goods made at home. Variety of food.

"Let me see, what's the matter!" Qin Feng looked at him.
