Can I have dinner at my mother’s house on New Year’s Eve?

cannot. According to the traditional Chinese understanding of family formation, when a woman gets married, she immediately becomes a formal member of the man’s family. My former mother’s family has become just “relatives” to me. When a woman officially becomes a member of the man's family, it is impossible for her to be too casual when visiting her "relatives", let alone on the days when the family reunites on New Year's Eve or New Year's Eve. In feudal society, married women who often returned to their parents’ home would not only be scolded by their parents-in-law, but also by their own family members. You will also be gossiped about by people around you, saying that you are a traitor. Therefore, on the eve of the Little New Year, married women are not allowed to go back to their parents' home for dinner.

What should we pay attention to on New Year’s Eve?

1. In some places in Henan, people are taboo about pounding garlic, believing that pounding garlic during the Little New Year will make the family poor. So be careful not to crush garlic on New Year's Eve. 2. The 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month is the day when the Kitchen God goes to heaven to report the good and evil deeds, merits and demerits of the entire family to the Jade Emperor. Therefore, beating or scolding is taboo, and doing bad things is even more fearful. 3. In Taiwan, people avoid pounding rice. It is said that this may bring down the God of Wind, which may result in wind disasters in the coming year. Therefore, it is not suitable to pound rice on this day.
