China is a country with profound traditional culture, especially in traditional festivals, that is, the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. There are many special customs on this day. The following is a customized video of the festival.

The custom video of Breaking Five is 1 1, for the poor. In many places, New Year's Eve is also called poverty. You can know from the name that "poverty" is to be sent away on this day, so that poverty has nothing to do with yourself in the coming year.

2. Set off firecrackers. On the fifth day of the first month, every household will start setting off firecrackers. In our country, people call setting off firecrackers "collapsing poverty". Setting off firecrackers is loud, and poor and unlucky people are afraid of it. Therefore, every household will set off firecrackers on this day, and the poverty and misfortune hidden at home will be far disintegrated.

3, pick up the five gods. The Five-Road God is actually the God of Wealth in the southeast and northwest. On this day, people will not only meet the five gods, but also worship them.

4. Taboo. The reason why people don't visit relatives and friends on New Year's Eve is because people go out to visit relatives and friends and bring them to their neighbors' homes for fear of meeting poor gods, so on this day, people usually don't visit relatives and friends.

5, taboo to break ground. Farmers who have worked hard all their lives can't work on several special days, including the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, because if the ground is broken on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, there will probably be great disasters.

Eating jiaozi collapses.

On the fifth day of the first month, jiaozi is popular in many places, which is also of great significance. This custom is commonly known as "pinching a villain's mouth". Because when you wrap jiaozi, you have to pinch it by hand along the edge of jiaozi. It is said that this can avoid rumors around. Eating jiaozi also implies that people expect good luck and happiness. Since the early hours of the morning, every household has set off firecrackers, especially "kicking two feet", which is called "collapse of poverty", "unlucky" and "poor gas" leaving home to collapse. Old people are forbidden to visit relatives and friends on this day, and they are not allowed to visit, saying that visiting relatives will bring bad luck to others' homes. Others say that this day is the birthday of the God of Wealth, and every family sets off firecrackers to eat jiaozi to welcome the God of Wealth. No matter what kind of attention is paid, the "Five-Year Plan" of eating jiaozi entrusts people with their expectations for the Spring Festival, that is, in the new year, they will get something for nothing, manage their families diligently and live a good life.

The custom video of breaking five is 2 grasping five poverty.

On the fifth day of the first month, "seeing the poor off" is a unique custom among the ancient people in China. It means offering sacrifices to poor ghosts (poor gods). There are many nicknames for sending the poor, such as "sending the five poor", "driving the five poor", "sending the poor soil" and "sending the poor clothes". According to folklore, from New Year's Day to Friday, you can get rich without taking out the garbage, otherwise you will be "blessed". However, there are too many garbage dumps, which, after all, affect health, so it is stressful to dump them out on the fifth day of junior high school. This is called "sending the poor". There are many ways to send the poor. The simple thing is to dump the garbage outside the door with firecrackers in the early morning. The complicated thing is to cut a little person (poor daughter-in-law) with paper and send her away, and even let her carry a paper bag full of garbage outside the door. Some people who have enough to eat and drink are called "filling the poor", or taking other people's "poor daughters-in-law" away, which is called "getting rich"

Clean the house.

Before the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month to the 5th day of the first month, cleaning is generally not allowed. If you want to sweep the floor, you can only sweep it in the house, and the garbage can only be put in the corner of the house first.

But on the fifth day, it can be cleaned. And cleaning is a thorough cleaning, sweeping out the garbage in every house.

Jielutou god

The Road God is also called the Five Road God. Five roads refer to east, west, north and south. Wealth and goods need to pass through roads, so people sacrifice it in the hope that it can attract money or profit.

Some places think that the sooner God meets the road, the better. The first one received is the true god, which is particularly effective, so it is called "grabbing the road". Some places "grabbed the road" on the fourth day of January and followed suit. As for people who worship the Road God on the fifth day of January and take this day as their birthday, it is because the "five" of the Road God is related to the "five" of the fifth day.

Eat dumplings

In addition to eating jiaozi on New Year's Eve, the fifth day of the first month is called "Breaking Five", and jiaozi is also eaten. There is a saying that there are many taboos in the days from the first day to the fifth day, so people should not "act rashly". Once the fifth day is over, the New Year's Eve dinner is basically over, so they are no longer taboo and want to eat jiaozi's congratulations. Especially in Tianjin and nearby areas (such as Cangzhou City), there is also the custom of Bao jiaozi to hold the mouth of the villain, saying that it is to make the villain shut up and speak ill of him less in the coming year.

open the market

During the Spring Festival, large and small shops are closed together from the first day of New Year's Day and open on the fifth day of the first month. People regard the fifth day of the first month as the birthday of the god of wealth, thinking that choosing this day to open the market will definitely make money.

It is also said that a person's fortune in a year is determined by the God of Wealth, and no matter how your business is, it will be very prosperous this year.

taboo

Do nothing, avoid visiting.

According to the old habit, it is not appropriate to do things on the day of Friday, otherwise something will happen this year. On the "five busy days", it is forbidden to break ground, and there may be disasters. Eating lotus roots and combing your hair were taboo in both north and south, but these are superstitious statements.

According to the Chronicle of Yanjing's Age, the fifth day is called "Breaking Five", and uncooked rice is not allowed to cook, and women are not allowed to go out. On the sixth day, Princess, your Lord and eunuchs exchanged greetings. The newly-married woman also returned to mothering on the same day, and the merchants gradually began to trade. "Clear Bi Chao" also contains: The fifth day of the first month is the fifth day, and women are not allowed to go out.

According to legend, Jiang Taigong named his wife poor God and told her to "come back when she saw the broken". In order to avoid the poor god, people call this day "Breaking Five". In fact, the reason why I don't visit on the fifth day is to avoid meeting the poor god, that is, the daughter-in-law. In some places, it is simply called "sending poor daughters-in-law on the fifth day and going out to meet the god of wealth", which is actually a disrespect for women in ancient times.

In addition, the elderly will also avoid visiting relatives and friends on this day, and they are not allowed to visit, saying that visiting relatives will bring bad luck to other people's homes.

1, offering sacrifices to the god of wealth

Sacrificing the God of Wealth is not only a tradition in the south, but also in many places in the north of China. According to folklore, the God of Wealth is also known as the Five-way God, that is, the God of Sacrificing Households, the God of Kitchen, the God of Land, the God of Doors and the God of Walking. The so-called five-way god refers to the east, west, north and south, which means that you can get wealth by going out five ways.

Therefore, every new year, people will open doors and windows, light incense and set off firecrackers to welcome the arrival of the god of wealth at 0: 00 on the fifth day of the first month. After receiving the god of wealth, everyone still has to eat road wine, often until dawn. Everyone is full of hope of getting rich. I hope the god of wealth can bring home gold and silver treasures in the new year and make a fortune.

Step 2 clean the house

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, people get up at dawn, set off firecrackers and clean up. Cleaning is thorough cleaning. Sweep out the garbage in every house. Before the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month to the fifth day of the first lunar month, cleaning and sweeping are generally not allowed, only in the house, and garbage can only be placed in the corner of the house first. Especially during the Chinese New Year, you can't move the broom. If you move, you will lose your good luck.

But on the day of the fifth lunar month, it is necessary to have a thorough cleaning. When the garbage was swept out of the door and into a corner, firecrackers were also placed outside the house, so a huge firecracker was brought, placed on the garbage dump and lit, and the ceremony ended with a bang. People say: Now, all the poor people have been driven away! So I ate it.

3. Meet the Road God

The road head is also called "Five Road Gods". It is said that there was a Five-way God at the end of Yuan Dynasty who died to resist foreign invasion, so people worshipped him as a god and called him "Five-way God". However, it seems that the five gods have nothing to do with who the God of Wealth is. Or the five-way god is actually the five-way god, or the five-way god. After Tang Bin banned Fang from going to Wu Tong Temple in the Kangxi period, the people dared not worship the Five-Road God, so they changed their names to Reuters. Generally, this kind of road head is regarded as absent-minded in the ancient five sacrifices, and the so-called five roads are also east, west, north and south; Wealth and goods follow the road, so people regard walking as a god of wealth and are willing to offer sacrifices, hoping that it can make money or make profits when traveling. It is the custom of "ancestral way" for the ancients to travel and sacrifice to the road gods for peace; When the martial arts meet the Taoist head, it is the Taoist god who sacrifices, and this Taoist god becomes the god of wealth.

They say the sooner you meet the end of the road, the better. The first one you receive is the true god, which is particularly effective, so it is called "grabbing the road". In some places, the fourth day of January is really "grabbing the road" and it has become a custom. Since the road god is no longer the protector of the journey, people will no longer sacrifice it when traveling. As for people who worship the Road God on the fifth day of January and take this day as their birthday, it is the reason why the "Five" of the Road God is related to the "Five" of the fifth day.

Step 4 Eat jiaozi

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the popular folk custom is to eat jiaozi, commonly known as "squeezing people's mouths". It is said that this can avoid the evil of slander. According to the old custom, you should eat "dumplings" for five days, which is called "boiled cakes" in the north. Now some families only eat it for three or two days, and some eat it every other day. However, there is no one who does not eat. This is true from the royal residence to the small houses in the streets, even for entertaining guests. Besides, jiaozi is shaped like a gold ingot, so eating jiaozi is also a way to celebrate the God of Wealth's birthday.

Eating jiaozi in the fifth month of the lunar calendar means that people expect good luck and happiness. According to the exquisite, this day's dumpling stuffing must be chopped by yourself, and everything that is not smooth is chopped off, which indicates that everything will be smooth in the coming year. On the Day of Tianjin People's Fifth Festival, every household eats jiaozi, and the chopping board should jingle for the neighbors to hear, to show that they are chopping "little people". Tianjin people attribute all unhappy things to "little people", and only by getting rid of "little people" can they prosper. Setting off firecrackers on the fifth night also means avoiding evil spirits and disasters.

Step 5 eat and stir the dough

After the fire, the food we eat is different. Longxian county, Xifu county, is in chaos all over the county, and it is said that all unpleasant things will be glued together with this mushy food. It is said that in some places in the Weihe River basin, people also eat jiaozi in New Year's Day, but not on the fifth day, but on the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, such as Sanyuan County and Wugong County. This is the same as Longxian County. There are three Chinese New Year holidays in Longxian County, the thirtieth day of the twelfth lunar month, the fifth day of the first month and the seventh day of the first month.

Binxian also eats jiaozi on the fifth day of the first month, saying that it is "eat poor food and go to the poor roots", and it is also called "paste the poor pit" and "fill the poor pit". It is also suitable for pasting and filling with food like mixing dough. People in Binxian said that wine and meat can't be eaten anyway. Chunhua County, located in Weibei Plateau, also eats jiaozi on this day, which is said to be used to fill the poor pit.

6, eat boiled horns

Fengxiang county is the most interesting place. It is the birthplace of Qin people. Also known as "breaking five". They also get up early, do cleaning and shoot guns, but the food they eat is very different from what they care about. They eat jiaozi. It's not jiaozi, it's boiled horn. I wrapped it all night and finished it the next morning. Still wrapped in meat.

When wrapping jiaozi, you must light a stick of incense, wrap it around the dumpling stuffing pot, and then wrap jiaozi. Why is this? Fengxiang people said: this is to round up the "five poor" and the like, wrap them up and cook them. Qin people do things heroically and thoroughly. In doing so, they not only drove away the "five poor", but killed them all, which smacked of "eating their flesh and sleeping their skins".
