——About what to do during the Beginning of Winter:
○ Beginning of Winter Northern Dumplings
People in northern my country, especially in Beijing and Tianjin, love to eat dumplings. The word "dumpling" comes from the saying "the time of Jiaozi". The 30th day of the lunar new year is the transition between the old year and the new year, and the beginning of winter is the transition between autumn and winter, so dumplings must be eaten at the time of "Jiaozi".
○ Hot tonic in the south during the beginning of winter
In southern my country, people like to eat chicken, duck, fish and meat on the day of the Beginning of Winter. In Taiwan, on the day of the Beginning of Winter, the street restaurants serving winter tonic foods such as "mutton hotpot" and "ginger duck" are packed with guests. Many families also stew sesame oil chicken and four-ingredient chicken to replenish energy.
○Drink mutton soup on the beginning of winter
In Tengzhou, Shandong, there is a custom of drinking mutton soup during the Beginning of Winter. In cold weather, drinking a bowl of steaming mutton soup is definitely a treat. Moreover, mutton contains a large amount of fat, protein and rich calories, which is excellent in keeping out the cold.

The Manchus have the custom of burning incense. At the beginning of winter, when the autumn grain is stored in the warehouse, this season becomes the active season for the Eight Banners of Manchu and Eight Banners of Han Army to burn incense and worship their ancestors. The sacrifice of the Han Eight Banners is called "burning flag incense and dancing to the tiger god", while that of the Manchu Eight Banners is called "burning meat incense". "Burning meat incense" lasts for 5-7 days. During the first three days of ancestor worship and burning incense, the whole family will eat vegetarian food for ten consecutive days and not eat meat.

After the beginning of winter, the weather becomes cold and people are prone to catching minor illnesses such as colds, coughs, headaches, and palpitations.
