In one of the most distinctive traditions of the Little New Year is the burning of a paper image of the Kitchen God, dispatching the god's spirit to Heaven to report on the family's conduct over the past year. The Kitchen God is then welcomed back to the home through the pasting of a new paper image of him beside the stove. From this vantage point, the Kitchen God will oversee and protect the household for another year. | 小年最独特的传统之一是烧灶神像,送灶神的灵魂上天庭汇报这家人在过去一年中的作为。之后,人们在炉灶旁张贴新的灶神像,迎接灶神归来。接下来一年,灶神会在这里监督并保护这家人。 |
The offerings to the Kitchen God include pig's head, fish, sweet bean paste, melons, fruit, boiled dumplings, barley sugar, and Guandong candy. | 由于灶神和供奉灶神的供品包括猪头、鱼、甜豆沙、瓜果、饺子、大麦糖和关东糖。 |
