Why do you put Christmas presents in socks?

Legend has it that there was a kind-hearted declining aristocrat whose life was very difficult. His three daughters are getting married soon, and he is sad that he has no money to buy them a dowry. On the festive Christmas Eve, three girls curled up on the kang and went to bed early, leaving their father to sigh. Santa decided to help them. He scattered a lot of gold in their chimney and fell into the socks that the girls were baking by the fire. From then on, they lived a happy life ... Christmas socks came into being.

According to the Bible, saints from the East gave gifts when Jesus was born, which is the origin of the custom of Santa Claus giving gifts to children. British children put stockings by the fireplace on Christmas Eve, believing that Santa Claus will come down the chimney at night and bring them presents full of socks. French children put their shoes at the door, so that when the baby comes, they can put presents in the shoes.
