A
It was my first Spring Festival in the UK. I wanted to treat my British friend Emilia to a traditional Chinese dinner because she often cooked for me. However, I had never cooked anything myself—I only watched my grandma cook before.
It was midnight in China (the usual time for eating dumplings), so I called my family for help. With their guidance on the phone, I became a “chef” in just one hour! I even made beautiful cucumber flowers. Emilia helped hang red balloons and lanterns to make the dining room festive. When I put the last dish on the table, I said, “This is lion’s head!” Emilia was shocked: “Is that against the law?” I laughed and explained, “It’s a pork meatball. We eat it during Spring Festival, and its round shape stands for family reunions.” After tasting it, Emilia said happily, “I love it!” The smell of dishes and our laughter filled the room, and I felt like I was back home.

For most Chinese people, festivals mean a break from work and happy family reunions. But for Leng Wenying, an emergency room (ER) doctor, festivals only mean more work and busier days.
Leng has missed many family meals because of her job. During festivals, she is much busier than usual—sometimes she has to work 20 hours without any breaks, which makes her tired and thirsty. “Festivals are a challenge for ER doctors,” Leng says. “Patients are often in serious condition at this time, so we need to stay by their side every minute.”
Though she has little time with her family during festivals, Leng never regrets choosing to be an ER doctor. “I make the most of every minute with my family when I’m free, and I’m thankful for their support,” she says. Leng is just one of millions of Chinese medical workers. They give up their family time to stick to their posts. In every patient’s heart, their hard work shines brighter than festive fireworks.

Festivals are special in people’s life. They can be about family, culture, duty or love. Different people have different festival experiences, but all of them are full of meaning.
For people living abroad, festivals are a great chance to share their culture with foreign friends. For example, a Chinese student in the UK cooked traditional Chinese food for his British friend during Spring Festival. With his family’s help, he made delicious dishes and explained the meaning of the food. This not only made his friend love Chinese culture but also made himself feel at home.
For medical workers like Leng Wenying, festivals are about duty and devotion. They can’t stay with their families because they need to take care of patients. They work day and night to help those in need. Their hard work protects people’s health and makes festivals more meaningful. No matter how we spend festivals, they connect people and bring us love.

Last year, I spent Spring Festival in Canada. I wanted to let my Canadian friend Tom know more about Chinese Spring Festival, so I decided to cook a Chinese dinner for him. I had watched my mom cook many times, but I had never tried it. I felt worried, so I asked my mom for help by video call. She taught me to make dumplings and “lion’s head”. After one hour, the dinner was ready. Tom loved the food and said he learned a lot about Chinese culture.
My sister is an ER nurse in China. She told me she never spends festivals with our family. During Spring Festival, she has to work long hours to look after patients. Sometimes she can’t even have a hot meal. But she says she is proud of her job. “Helping patients get better is the best festival gift for me,” she said.
From these two stories, I know festivals are not just about food and family. They are also about sharing culture and keeping duty. These make festivals really special.

Dear Peter,
I’m glad to tell you about how Chinese people spend festivals. Festivals are very important to us and mean different things to different people.
For most people, festivals are time for family reunions. During Spring Festival, we cook traditional food like “lion’s head” (pork meatball) to show our love for family. Some people even share this food with foreign friends to spread Chinese culture. For ER doctors like Leng Wenying, festivals mean working hard. They give up family time to help patients.
Whether we stay with family or stick to our posts, festivals are full of love. I hope you can understand Chinese festivals better!
Yours,
Li Hua
