Don't be greedy, child. After Laba, it's the New Year
Today is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month
Commonly known as "Laba"
It's the first festival of the twelfth lunar month
A bowl of fragrant Laba Congee
This year marks the beginning of the curtain
Laba Festival is a traditional folk festival in China

At first, this custom had no fixed date
Mostly done at the end of the year
According to the "Annals of Jingchu",
December 8th is the twelfth lunar day
So during the Southern and Northern Dynasties period
The Laba Festival is only fixed on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month
One meal, one meal, one move at a time
All rely on the people
Ordinary yet solemn life expectations
The Laba Festival has a history of over 1000 years
The arrival of Laba, Congee fragrance
this day
There is a folk custom of cooking Laba Congee in China
Laba Congee can be widely spread among the people
Apart from some statements originating from Buddhism
And the roots of Chinese folk customs
Before Laba Congee became popular
People have the habit of eating red bean Congee on the winter solstice to ward off evil spirits and avoid epidemics

I also think that drinking Congee in winter can ensure safety
People's preference for Laba Congee
Perhaps it's because it foreshadows the beginning of the year
Friends who have been busy for a year
Don't forget to stop and add the joy of last year to your life
Accumulated enough strength
In order to depart better
May a new year come
Everyone is safe and happy
Everything "Congee"
