Shijiazhuang people's custom of celebrating the New Year
I. New Year's Eve

You can't throw bowls and chopsticks during the Spring Festival. Breaking them is a sign of bankruptcy. You have to say "Peace through the years" or "Flowers bloom all over the place, and prosperity is like brocade" quickly.

Second, New Year's Day

You can't use a broom on the first day of the first month, otherwise you will sweep away your luck and break your money. If you must sweep the floor, you must sweep it from the outside to the inside. Until today, many places have the custom of cleaning before New Year's Eve. On New Year's Day, don't put brooms, don't take out garbage, prepare a big bucket of waste water, and don't spill it outside that day.

Third, the second day of New Year's Day

On the second day of New Year's Day, the married daughter goes back to her parents' house and asks her husband to go with her, so it is commonly known as "husband-welcoming day". On this day, the daughter who goes back to her parents' house must bring some gifts and red envelopes to her children and have lunch at her parents' house, but she must get back to her husband's house before dinner. In the past, the family would choose this day to take a family photo.

Fourth, the fourth day of the lunar calendar

In the past, the boss wanted to "fire" a person. On this day, he came to worship God uninvited. The other party knew it well and packed up and left. Kitchen God will come to check the household registration this day, so it is not advisable to travel far.

Fifth, the fifth day of the first month.

On the fifth day of the first month, commonly known as "breaking the fifth", it is necessary to "drive out the five poor", including "intellectual poverty, academic poverty, literary poverty, life poverty and friendship poverty". People get up at dawn, set off firecrackers and clean up. Firecrackers are set from the inside out, and as soon as they are set, they go outside the door. It is said that anything unlucky will be blown out. On this day, the popular folk food custom is to eat jiaozi, commonly known as "squeezing people's mouths".
