The Origin of jiaozi Bao Coin

In fact, the custom of enriching oneself in jiaozi has a history of at least five or six hundred years. Liu Ruoyu, a eunuch in Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, once wrote a miscellaneous book on food and clothing in the court of the Ming Dynasty. It is mentioned in this book that on the first day of New Year's Day, the imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty will drink "pepper and cypress wine" and eat "water snacks". This kind of water snack is a kind of flat food, which is now a common jiaozi.

At that time, jiaozi in the palace usually hid one or two dollars in the jiaozi, and people who ate this special jiaozi meant good luck in the new year. Later, this custom spread to the people and became an important custom for people to eat jiaozi in the New Year.

By the first day of the Qing Dynasty, eating jiaozi and hiding money in jiaozi had spread to all classes. The difference is that ordinary people may only hide a penny, while wealthy families will pack a gold ingot or a silver ingot in jiaozi. Who can eat this kind of jiaozi, which means "All shall be well.".
