It was said to be the day when the Kitchen God would return from the heaven to the earth. People will prepare with meat of livestock, fruits, dishes and burn incenses. In the past if employers weren’t invited to attend this activity by the employees, employers would know that they were fired.

It was said on that day, the Kitchen God would check the households. Therefore, family members are better to stay at home for the family reunion, playing firecrackers and burning incenses to welcome the Kitchen God.
