According to legend, Marshal Zhao Gong was named the god of wealth by Jiang Ziya, but he had a lazy personality, and only walked down the Dragon and Tiger Xuan altar once a year on the second day of the first lunar month, and he walked around very casually, never had an established goal, and it was not certain which one to go to.

Therefore, in the old folk customs, every family set off firecrackers early on the second day of the first lunar month, burned incense and sacrificed animals, and rushed ahead to welcome Marshal Zhao Gong, the god of wealth, to visit his home.

The Republic of China's Tianjin New Year painting "The God of Wealth Pushes Open the Yellow Gate" depicts a scene of a large family in Tianjin "greeting the God of Wealth" on the second day of the first lunar month.

In the picture, the family is happily celebrating the New Year. At the round table, three women were wrapping dumplings, some rolling the skin, some pinching the dumplings, some with noodles, and the hostess was holding the child and watching from the side. Next to the stove, there are those who add firewood and those who cook dumplings. Two children in the back room are playing chess. The yellow gate has been opened, and the man and a child are greeting the god of wealth.
