1, "Sending jiaozi to a banquet" is a custom in the north. Friends and relatives come to eat noodles, which is called "long reception". Relatives and friends are going out of town, and the last farewell meal is jiaozi, which is called "short delivery". One is long, and the other is short, indicating the expectation of reunion, hoping that those who go out will come back as soon as possible.
2. In the hearts of China people, jiaozi represents perfection and reunion. When a person is about to embark on a journey, his family will send him off with a jiaozi, and jiaozi represents his family's thoughts and blessings. Jiaozi looks like an ancient silver shovel and an ingot. I hope he can go out for a break, and I hope he can go home and reunite with his family as soon as possible.
3. "Entering the door" means that relatives go home, and the noodles are slender and curved, which means "binding" and "retaining". Especially when a new wife enters her husband's house, she must eat noodles first.
Things not to do before you leave:
1, don't cook until you leave town.
With this mentality, many people are going to travel far away, so they have to eat their last meal well, so they get up early in the morning to cook, but they can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so people are prone to make mistakes when they are in a hurry, leading to uncooked rice before going out, which is a symbol of getting twice the result with half the effort and quick success. Therefore, it's best to have an overnight meal or heat it up before going away, and don't rush to do it.
Don't send shoes before leaving the city.
When you say goodbye to a person, you usually buy them some things, such as hats, clothes, backpacks and so on. You can use them on the road but don't give them shoes. Shoes are personal belongings, of course, your own shoes are the best, but if you wear shoes given by others, you will easily have a bad journey and die in a disaster, because giving shoes is also evil, more or less bad.
