哥哥, why did Mom ask us to clean the house so early in the morning?

Because the New Year is coming. It’s a Chinese custom called “sweeping away the dust,” which means sweeping away old things and bad luck.

Can sweeping the floor really drive away bad luck? That sounds amazing!

Yes! People believe that when the house is clean, the new year will be happier and more blessed.

Then I’ll wipe the table! I want good fortune to come earlier.

Great! When sweeping, we usually clean from top to bottom and from inside to outside, so the New Year feels completely refreshed.

哥哥, I like this year-end cleaning. It makes the New Year more interesting!
