Do you welcome the God of Wealth during the Chinese New Year?

Little New Year is not the day to welcome the God of Wealth. The normal time to welcome the God of Wealth is the fourth or fifth day of the first lunar month. Because according to folklore, the fifth day of the first lunar month is the birthday of the God of Wealth.
Welcoming the God of Wealth is an ancient traditional festival custom among the Chinese people. According to Chinese folklore, the fifth day of the first lunar month is the birthday of the God of Wealth, so after the first day of the new year, the next most important activity is to welcome the God of Wealth. On the night before the God of Wealth's birthday, every family prepares a banquet to celebrate the God of Wealth's birthday.
The origin of welcoming the God of Wealth on the fourth day of the first lunar month (some say the fifth day of the first lunar month), the Five-Manifested God of Wealth or the Five-Road God of Wealth: Legend has it that there were five brothers whose first character of their titles was "Xian", so they were called "Five-Manifested God of Wealth". He robbed the rich to help the poor during his lifetime, and after his death he continued to punish evil and promote good, and protect the poor people. There is a Wuxian Temple of the God of Wealth outside Andingmen in Beijing.
The "Wen Caishen" is the God of Wealth, also known as the "Zengfu Caishen": his image is often listed together with the three stars of "Fu", "Lu" and "Shou" and the God of Joy, which together represent Fu, Lu, Shou, Joy and Cai. The God of Wealth has a white face and long hair, holding a treasure bowl in his hand. The four words "招财进宝" (attract wealth and treasure) come from this. Most families hang this picture in the main hall during the Spring Festival to pray for wealth and fortune. The origin of the custom of welcoming the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the first lunar month is related to Wang Yuanbao, the richest man in Chang'an during the Tang Dynasty.
On the fourth day of the first lunar month, all shops open for business, and gongs, firecrackers, sacrificial animals and wine are set out early in the morning to welcome the God of Wealth. In Qing Dynasty Gu Tieqing's "Qing Jia Lu", a bamboo poem by Cai Yun was quoted, which described the situation of Suzhou people welcoming the God of Wealth on the fifth day of the first lunar month: "Seek wealth on the fifth day, and fulfill a year's wish at once; beware that other places welcome the God of Wealth early, so you have to hurry along the way the night before." "Baolutou" means "welcoming the God of Wealth". Merchants who believe in Guan Yu, the Holy Lord, will offer sacrifices and wine to him, set off firecrackers, burn gold paper in worship, and pray to him for good fortune and prosperity for the year.
