Sometimes I really don’t understand why we must spent so much time tidying up for CNY. The thought of doing all these background work to welcome our lesser seen relatives yearly is just ridiculous. I mean, why bother?! Eventually, it becomes just a competition to see whose house is better, neater, well-stocked etc
That’s besides the usual: When are you getting married etc load of bull!
If I have a house of my own next time, I would barr all relatives from coming. I mean, its just a matter of ‘face’. GRRRRR!!!
Hiyah. Only once a year. Must clean up. Not so nice to let them see your house in a mess. Also it is another form of politeness for the guests. Imagine going visiting and enter a house reeking with slight smell! But of course, the cleaning must be reasonable lah. Not for competition or *face* purpose.
