What are the rules for welcoming the God of Wealth on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year?

"Welcoming the God of Wealth" requires generosity and courtesy, and "welcoming the Kitchen God" on the fourth day of the first lunar month is one of the most important folk customs of this day. The fourth day of the first lunar month is the "Sheep Day" in the Nuwa creation myth. In the book "Questions on Customs and Etiquette" by Dong Xun of the Jin Dynasty, it is recorded that "the first day of the first lunar month is for chicken, the second day is for dog, the third day is for pig, and the fourth day is for sheep..." The fourth day of the first lunar month is for sheep in the old imperial calendar, so the often-said "three sheep (yang) bring good luck" is a symbol of good luck and is also the day to welcome the Kitchen God back to the people. “Don’t go out on the fourth day of the first lunar month so that the Kitchen God can stay at home.” This is the custom in Tangshan, Hebei.
The origin of the God of Wealth can be said to be very long, and the God of Wealth worshipped varies from time to time and from place to place. Generally speaking, the gods of wealth worshipped by the ancient people are divided into two categories: civil and military. Guan Yu is only the military god of wealth among them, representing honesty and trustworthiness. Merchants choose Guan Erye as the God of Wealth because they value his image of loyalty and righteousness and his good wishes to punish evil and promote good, and to protect his family, life and property.
