When is the fifth day?

The fifth day of Lunar New Year's Eve is the day when China people "welcome the God of Wealth".

The fifth day of the first month, commonly known as the Broken Fifth Festival, is one of the traditional festivals with a long history in China. It is named after China folklore, and many taboos can be broken before this day.

Legend has it that the fifth day of the first month is the birthday of the God of Wealth, so people will hold a grand banquet, set off firecrackers and carry out various celebrations on this day, which means welcoming the arrival of the God of Wealth. On the fifth festival, people get up at dawn, set off firecrackers and clean up. Firecrackers are released from every room and go outside the door as soon as they are released; Sweep out the garbage in every house. Because this day carries too many people's hopes and longings, according to the old habit, we have to eat "jiaozi" for five days, which is called "boiled cake" in the north.
