Why can't I string relatives on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year? Born?

The fifth day is also called breaking the fifth day, because people are poor in five aspects, namely, intelligence, study, literature, life and social interaction. The New Year is the best time of the year. In order to get rid of these five kinds of poverty in the new year, the fifth day decided to break these five kinds of poverty.

The reason why it is this day is because the fifth day of the Lunar New Year is also the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, corresponding to the five poverty, and the fifth day is also the birthday of the God of Wealth. It is more auspicious to use the happiness of the god of wealth to dispel the misfortune of being destitute.

On the fifth day, it is one thing to keep relatives away and tidy up the room. From the perspective of the Gregorian calendar, visiting relatives and friends on this day is also taboo. It is said that when visiting relatives on this day, they will bring their own God of Wealth to each other's home, and the other party may be either rich or expensive.

And because there is no god of wealth at home, it will be sad for a year. Just like cats and people, the god of wealth will follow people. So many people say that the fifth day is not suitable for visiting relatives.
