In traditional folk customs, the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month is the day to send the Kitchen God back to heaven, rather than invite him back.
Sending off the Kitchen God is also known as celebrating the Little New Year. It is a Han folk activity with a long history. On the 23rd (or 24th) day of the 12th lunar month, the Kitchen God must be sent back to heaven. When sending him off, he must be worshipped first. The offerings are different from the three animals and four fruits used in ordinary sacrifices to gods. Most people use sweet things such as glutinous rice balls and malt sugar to worship. The purpose is nothing more than hoping that after the Kitchen God enjoys these desserts, he will say more good things in front of the Jade Emperor and tell less tales. After sending off the Kitchen God, every household will do a thorough cleaning to welcome the New Year. On the fourth day of the first lunar month, the Kitchen God must be invited back home to continue his duties as a god. Sending the Kitchen God away embodies the Han working people's beautiful wish to ward off evil and disasters and welcome good fortune.

What are the requirements for welcoming the God of Wealth?

We should welcome the God of Wealth at midnight on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, that is, around 24:00 on the evening of the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and prepare to welcome the God of Wealth. First of all, on the fourth day of the New Year, you need to send away the God of Poverty and clean the house. Sweep the dust from inside to outside. You can burn incense in the house, open the windows, and use willow branches to beat the God of Poverty, and you can sweep all over the house just like sweeping dust. Then at 24:00 on the fourth night of the New Year, prepare a table, usually placed in the living room. If it is in the countryside, you can put it in the central hall; if it is a shop, you can put it directly in the center of the shop. Facing the northeast, you can hang a picture of the God of Wealth or write on red paper: "Offerings to the Five Gods of Wealth" and place it on the altar. Prepare offerings on the table, such as: apples, sugar water, tea, longan, flowers, etc. Prepare incense, candles and butter lamps.
