An Well, about a week before Tet, I will clean and decorate my house, stock up on groceries for several days because all shops are closed during the first days of the holiday Alex Is there any special ritual that only Vietnam has? Hội thoại ngày Tết An Here it’s a tradition to pay debts in advance to start the year debt free At home, Vietnamese families will set up an altar with fruits and flowers to show respect to their ancestors Besides, there is a farewell ceremony for the Kitchen Gods on their yearly visit of Heaven Alex What is that ceremony? It sounds interesting! Well, it is in the noon of the 23th of lunar December The Kitchen Gods will return to the Heaven to report to the Jade Emperor (Ngọc Hoàng) on activities of each family over the past year By worshiping the gods with the ceremony, we hope they will only report our good side Alex An So I guess that’s the last ceremony ofthe old year? An Not really, Alex About a week after that, there will be the End of the Year ceremony, when all family members gather We believe that when the whole family says prayers and burns incense, we are inviting ancestors to join the family That’s just a traditional custom but I think it’s always a great time for the reunion of all family members, living and dead Alex You make me miss my family so much We also gather on Christmas and New Year Eve, but we don’t burn incense to invite the ancestors By now, I see the Tet atmosphere is coming to town What Vietnamese to decorate their houses, An? Hội thoại ngày Tết We decorate the house with peach blossoms or apricot blossoms, and some other kinds of plants and flowers, for example kumquat tree or sunflower I will go to the flower market next week Would you like to join me, Alex? Alex An Yes, I’d love to Will you go to Ben Thanh market? An Let’s go to Bình Tây market It’s the best place for Tet shopping I need to buy some jam, clothes and household equipment for the holiday Alex And I will buy some red envelop, the children next door will love that Hội thoại ngày Tết You get along so well with life in Vietnam, Alex! As I mentioned before, Tet is probably the most exciting time for both adults and children Children often eagerly wait for their lucky money, and adults have time to visit their relatives and friends This year I am going to pagoda to pray for love Alex An What? You can even pray for love in a pagoda? I’m not sure if that will come true or not But let’s see An Alex I almost forgot this important thing: is there anything I should avoid doing during Tet? Don’t worry too much about it, Vietnamese is not so strict with foreigners about that But for your information, during Tet we want to avoid saying bad things like death and arguing with others We also don`t sweep the house because doing that will make money going out of the house Alex I will remember those taboos Now I’m ready to enjoy my first Tet in Vietnam!
