The 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month is the day to worship the kitchen god, commonly known as "Little New Year" among the people, also known as Little New Year, Little New Year, and Little New Year Festival. On this day, the Kitchen God is sent to heaven to report on matters, which is called sending off the Kitchen God, bidding farewell to the Kitchen God, and the Drunken God of Life.
Legend has it that the Kitchen God was originally a commoner named Zhang Sheng. After marrying a wife, he spent his days in debauchery and lost all his family fortune, and was reduced to begging on the streets. One day, he went to beg at his ex-wife Guo Dingxiang's house. He was so ashamed that he dived under the stove and burned to death.
When the Jade Emperor found out, he thought that Zhang Sheng had changed his mind and was not completely bad. Since he died at the bottom of the pot, he was named Kitchen God. He was required to report to heaven on the 23rd and 24th of the twelfth lunar month every year and return to the bottom of the pot on New Year's Eve. Ordinary people feel that the Kitchen God must be respected because he has to report to Heaven. Therefore, the Han people have the "Little New Year" of worshiping the kitchen god on the 23rd and 24th of the twelfth lunar month, praying for peace and prosperity in the coming year.
