In China, Spring Festival is the biggest day. People will come back home and enjoy spending some time with their families. So no matter how far they are, they will figure out all the ways to come back home and get reunited. The house cleaning work before the coming of this big day always brings me the happy memory. We can find something lost a long time ago in the corner. It is like the surprise and makes me feel so excited. On the New Year’s Eve, all of my families will sit together and enjoy the real big meal. We share our happiness and the future expectation. What a nice moment.
在中国,春节是最重要的日子。人们都会回家,跟家人享受在一起的时光,所以不管有多远,都会想尽一切办法回家团聚。春节前房子的打扫工作总是给我带来快乐的记忆。我们可以在角落里找到一些丢失很久的东西,就像惊喜一样,我觉得很兴奋。除夕夜,我所有的家人都会坐在一起,享受大餐。我们分享彼此的幸福以及对未来的期望。多么美好的时刻啊。
May the New Year bring many good things and rich blessings to you and all those you love!
愿新年带给你和你所爱的人许多美好的事物和无尽的祝福!
