2. Setting off firecrackers: In the morning of the Spring Festival, setting off firecrackers will open the door. Setting off firecrackers first is called "setting off firecrackers". After the firecrackers, the ground is broken red, which is the so-called "full house". At this time, the streets are full of anger and joy.

3. Fortune-telling: In the old days, people took advantage of the sunny weather in Xinzheng. Its theory began in Dong Fangshuo's "Year", which means that eight days after the year, one day is chicken day, two days are dogs, three days are pigs, four days are sheep, five days are cows, six days are horses, seven days are people and eight days are valleys. If it is sunny, things that belong to it will breed, if it is cloudy, the days that belong to it will not last long. Later generations follow their habits and think that the weather is sunny from the first day to the tenth day, and there is no wind or snow for good luck.

4. Paste chicken: In ancient Chinese New Year, chicken was painted on doors and windows to ward off evil spirits.
