On the first day of the first month, we eat jiaozi, noodles on the second day, zygotes on the third day, pancakes and scrambled eggs on the fourth day, jiaozi on the fifth day, and do whatever we want on the sixth day.

Eat jiaozi on the first day of the first month. In the north of China, almost every family is like this. This meal in jiaozi is different from other jiaozi in a year. This kind of jiaozi rice is required to be wrapped on New Year's Eve and eaten at midnight. Eat jiaozi just to get the meaning of "making friends when you are young".

After this day, many taboos in China folk customs can be broken. According to the old custom, you should eat "jiaozi" for five days, which is called "boiled cake" 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. Women should not go out, but they should also eat jiaozi and set off firecrackers. Newly married women go home on this day.

According to the customs of different regions, many customs have changed. People love the new and hate the old, seeking good luck, but once the fireworks are released, the middle-aged and elderly people or children who are sleeping at this time will feel bad, and too many harmful gases will be emitted at this time of year. In some places in the south, only incense and tea are burned on this day, and no fireworks are set off. But times have changed and customs have changed.
