The taboos on the second day of the Lunar New Year mainly include the following:
1.*Returning to the door is single**: When the married daughter returns to her parents' home with her husband, the gift she brings back must be an even number, because in traditional Chinese culture, the double number symbolizes pairs and good things come in pairs, while the odd number is considered unlucky.
2.*Laundry**: On the second day of the Lunar New Year, there is a tradition of taboo washing clothes in some places, because washing clothes may "wash away" good luck and wealth.
3.*Nap**: Some regional customs believe that you should not take a nap during the day on the second day of the Lunar New Year, otherwise it may mean that you will be lazy or have bad luck throughout the year.
4.*Say unlucky things**: Avoid saying anything unlucky during the Chinese New Year, especially on the important day of the second day of the Lunar New Year.
5.*Borrowing money and collecting debts**: Lending money to and from others is taboo on the second day of the Lunar New Year and even throughout the Chinese New Year, as it is believed to bring about a whole year of economic hardship.
6.*Sharp tools such as moving scissors**: It is traditionally considered that the use of sharp weapons such as scissors and kitchen knives during the Spring Festival is unlucky and may "cut" good luck.
7.*Pay attention to eating noodles**: For example, noodles should not be broken, because "broken" has a bad meaning in Chinese; At the same time, there is also a focus on not eating leftover noodles, in order to live a rich life in the new year and leave no old things.
