俗话说“百里不同风，千里不同俗”。我的家乡在江苏盐城，这里有着自己独特的风俗，尤其是初一拜年，那是孩子最快乐的时光。
As the saying goes, '; Different winds and customs exist within a hundred miles;. My hometown is Yancheng, Jiangsu. It has its own unique customs, especially on the first day of the Lunar New Year, which is the happiest time for children.
农历每年的第一天大年初一，盐城习俗称“过年”。在这一天，人们早已把家里打扫得干干净净，春联，烟花，鞭炮这些年货也都准备齐全。各种吃的，让人一看便直流口水。
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the custom in Yancheng is called; Chinese New Year;. On this day, people have already cleaned their homes clean and tidy, and Spring Festival couplets, fireworks, firecrackers and other New Year's goods are all prepared. All kinds of food make people drool at a glance.
除夕那天，爸爸张罗着挂灯笼，贴春联。奶奶把祭祖的供品摆好，烧香点烛，燃放鞭炮，然后全家人向祖先磕头祭拜，祈祷祖先保佑我们一家身体健康，事业顺利，学习进步，而我们小孩最盼望的就是大年初一拜早年。
On New Year's Eve, my father hung lanterns and posted couplets. Grandma arranged the offerings for ancestor worship, burned incense and candles, set off firecrackers, and then the whole family kowtowed to our ancestors to pray for their blessings on our family's health, smooth career, and academic progress. As children, what we most hope for is to worship our early years on the first day of the Chinese New Year.
正月初一，刚起完床，我们小孩就提着手提袋，约上小伙伴，蹦蹦跳跳的出发了。街上拜年的小孩也都三五成群，脸上洋溢着快乐的笑容，我们先来到一户人家门前，虽然已经轻车熟路，但还是不免有些紧张。“叮咚……”我轻轻按下门铃，开门的是一位面容慈祥的老奶奶，“奶奶新年好，向您拜年了，祝您身体健康，万事如意。”我们齐声说道。“好，好！谢谢，谢谢！”奶奶笑成了一朵花，走进里屋，给我们每人分了几块糖，一手花生和一手瓜子。我们谢过奶奶之后又开开心心的向下一家走去。
On the first day of the lunar new year, as soon as we got out of bed, our children picked up their bags and made plans with their friends, bouncing and jumping off. On the street, there were also groups of three or five children paying New Year's greetings, with happy smiles on their faces. We first arrived at the doorstep of a household, although we were already familiar with the road, we couldn't help but feel a bit nervous. “ Dingdong… … ” I gently pressed the doorbell, and the person who opened the door was an old lady with a kind face; Grandma, good New Year! Wishing you good health and all the best. ” We all spoke in unison. “ Okay, okay! Thank you, thank you! ” Grandma smiled like a flower, walked into the inner room, and gave each of us a few pieces of candy, one hand peanuts and the other melon seeds. After thanking grandma, we happily walked towards the next house.
经过三个小时的“备战”，我们大概走了上百户人家，我们“战功”赫赫，收获满满：一大袋糖，一大堆花生和一大袋堆瓜子，看着这些拜年得来的礼物，我们的心里乐开了花。我觉得给亲朋邻居送上最真挚的祝福也是最最开心的事。
After three hours of; Preparing for War; We visited about a hundred households, and we; Military achievements; Hehe, the harvest is full: a big bag of sugar, a bunch of peanuts, and a big bag of melon seeds. Looking at these New Year's gifts, our hearts are filled with joy. I think sending the sincerest wishes to family, friends, and neighbors is also the happiest thing.
我们家乡的风俗——初一拜年，是不是特别有年味儿呢？
