Why does the Chu government want to eat jiaozi?

As the saying goes, "jiaozi is lying on his head, noodles are lying in the middle, and eggs are spread on the last pie". On the first day of the first lunar month, jiaozi must eat. Not to mention the backward agricultural production in ancient times, it was when the vegetables were green and yellow that the custom of eating jiaozi came into being. Fu Tou jiaozi is also known as "Fu Tie" and "Tie Fu". Because "Fu" and "Fu" are homophonic, eating jiaozi on this day has the auspicious meaning of "Fu Na". The dumpling skin is round, which means everything is perfect, while jiaozi's practice is to wrap the stuffing with dumpling skin, which means "harmony" and family and beauty.

"crouching" means being forced to hide underground, which means that the hottest season of the year is coming. The dog days are composed of three days: the beginning, the middle and the end, and the specific date is related to the branch date of the Book of Changes.

The ten-day stems are A, B, C, D, E, G, Xin, Ren and Gui. Geng ranks seventh, belonging to gold in the five elements, and gold is afraid of fire. The date of dog days is calculated according to Geng Day. From the summer solstice, it is the first day of the first stage, and from the fourth stage, it is the first day of the last stage of early autumn. It can be seen that the method of fortune-telling has long existed in ancient meteorology and agricultural production and life.
