1. jiaozi
The custom of begging for cleverness in Juancheng, Caoxian, Pingyuan and other places is very interesting: seven good girls collect food and set vegetables to wrap jiaozi, and put a copper coin, a needle and a jujube into three dumplings respectively. After begging for cleverness, they get together to eat dumplings. It is said that they are blessed with money, skillful with needles and early marriage with dates.

On this day, various small objects are made of flour, which are called "proper fruit" after frying in oil, and proper fruit, lotus, white lotus root and Hong Ling are displayed in the courtyard at night.
