What to eat on the ninth day?

Northerners eat jiaozi on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, which means that noodles are smooth and auspicious. In northern China, the custom of "biting spring on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month" is to eat radish.

The ninth day of the first month, commonly known as Born in Heaven, is one of the traditional lunar festivals in China. This is the birthday of the Jade Emperor, the tallest god in the sky. Tiangong is the Jade Emperor, the supreme god who rules the three realms. He is the supreme god who commands the ten gods inside and outside the three realms and all the gods on the earth, representing the supreme heaven. On this day's traditional folk custom, women prepare incense sticks and fast rice bowls and put them in the open air at the entrance of patio lane to worship.
