You don't have to tear up the Spring Festival couplets in previous years, just wrap them in new ones.
The second treatment method:
Tear off the old Spring Festival couplets and tear them into pieces, which is called "breaking the peace" and paste new Spring Festival couplets to welcome the New Year. If you want to tear the Spring Festival couplets in previous years at the end of the year, you should tear them after the first month at the earliest.
In some places, the Spring Festival couplets in previous years will be directly thrown away or burned, because the Spring Festival couplets in previous years are old, faded and dusty. In order to "bid farewell to the old and welcome the new", it is a common way to dispose of them before the new year.
According to Liang Zhangju's "Conghua Couplets", "There are Spring Festival couplets on the door curtains of the palaces in the Forbidden City, which are hung in the late twelfth lunar month and taken down in the late first month of the following year." It can be seen that the Spring Festival couplets in the Forbidden City have the highest utilization rate. Simply making up for three years is of course related to its value. The Spring Festival couplets in the Forbidden City are not red paper splashed on people's homes, but "they may need to be updated, but they are easy to update, and they are assigned to the model version of Hanlin, while the couplets are still old." It is said that Confucian scholars went their separate ways in the ancient language family, all of which were written by the famous Hanlin at that time and respected by the emperor. They were asked to draw a plan and decorate it with beautiful colors. "
The Spring Festival couplets in the Forbidden City are broken. What should we do if the Spring Festival couplets of ordinary people are broken? If you find that the Spring Festival couplets are broken, you can stick them on. But if there is a "lack of meat", if you can't find the missing piece, stick the hole with red paper first and burn it in the first month.
Welcome to the New Year. It is a year of reunion and celebration for every family. Everyone sticks Spring Festival couplets and the word "Fu", and pays attention to "Fu". So the word "fu" is pasted backwards. At this time, we must pay attention to the fact that the word "Fu" must be posted outside the gate to welcome Fu into the door.
