On the fifth day of the first month, commonly known as "Breaking Five", the folk food custom in many places in China is to eat jiaozi. In some places, Bao jiaozi is also commonly known as "pinching a mean person's mouth". When wrapping jiaozi, you should pinch it by hand along the edge of jiaozi. It is said that this can avoid slander.

Eating jiaozi also implies that people expect good luck and happiness. Since the early hours of the morning, every household has set off firecrackers, especially "kicking two feet", which is called "collapse of poverty", "unlucky" and "poor gas" leaving home to collapse. Old people are forbidden to visit relatives and friends on this day, and they are not allowed to visit, saying that visiting relatives will bring bad luck to others' homes. Others say that this day is the birthday of the God of Wealth, and every family sets off firecrackers to eat jiaozi to welcome the God of Wealth.

Jiaozi, who broke the five-year plan, stressed that the stuffing was meatballs, and the shape of jiaozi was oblate, much like an ingot symbolizing wealth. In addition, there are money, dates and sugar in jiaozi, which means getting rich, good luck coming early and being sweet and beautiful. Having a reunion dinner in jiaozi means that in the new year, we can increase our wealth and live a better life.
