Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, which falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year. It is a traditional Chinese folk festival, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival, and is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.I think the Dragon Boat Festival should be present in every place, but my mother told me, "It is popular in ethnic areas such as Han, Zhuang, Buyi, Dong, Tujia, and Gelao." Now I understand.
My grandmother and I came to the street, and enthusiastic shouts could be heard everywhere. Listen to "Selling Zongzi! Sweet, salty, and delicious!" But what I notice most is children. Their necks, wrists, or feet are all tied with red, yellow, blue, white, and black silk threads. Grandma said that they are long-lived strands.
Grandma bought some mugwort and garlic from the street, and at noon, she took them out and put them in the sun to avoid evil.
In the evening, the family ate a meal. Of course, yellow croaker, cucumber, Salted duck egg yolk, Zongzi wrapped in soybean petals, realgar wine, and a dish called Huanglong Sailing. Mother said, "Today is the anniversary of the dragon, so we need to burn this dish." On the TV, children are playing games. Look at the words "Wang" painted on their heads, and they also wear colorful sachets.
The Dragon Boat Festival is really interesting!

There are many customs during the Dragon Boat Festival, such as eating palms and racing dragon boats. In my mother's hometown of Sanming, there is a custom of "inserting Cornus officinalis".Zhuyu is a type of grass, which is thin and long, and also green. During the Dragon Boat Festival, local elderly people will plant a bundle of dogwood on both sides of every door in their homes.
Once during the Dragon Boat Festival, our family returned to Sanming. That day, I saw my grandfather and grandmother planting Cornus for the first time. I saw my grandfather bring a long ladder, set it up next to the door (in front of the door frame), and then carefully take out one? Zhuyucao bowed to the heavens, murmuring words, and then slowly climbed up the ladder. Finally, Grandpa carefully searched for the crack by the door, and once he found it, he inserted the bundle of Cornus officinalis into it and then came down.
We and our grandfather were proudly gazing at the dogwood trees that we had carefully inserted on the doors, big and small, from a distance. The gentle breeze blew by, and the dogwood beside the door swayed its body gently in the breeze, as if laughing and saying to us, "Don't worry! I will definitely bless everyone with peace!"
This is one of the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown - planting Cornus officinalis. However, with the progress of this era, fewer and fewer people will want to insert Zhu.
So, I suggest to everyone: everyone should maintain this tradition and pass down the ancient and long-standing customs from generation to generation.

There are many traditional festivals in China, including Qingming Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Spring Festival, etc. I love the Dragon Boat Festival the most. One of the characteristics of the Dragon Boat Festival is to eat Zongzi. Every Dragon Boat Festival, people will eat Zongzi, some make it by themselves, some buy it on the street. I like eating Zongzi very much. I also heard a story about the origin of Zongzi: in ancient times, there was a man named Qu Yuan who died in battle. People made a transparent coffin to commemorate him and placed it in the pool. In order to offer some tribute to Qu Yuan, he threw candy sticks made of glutinous rice into the pool one by one. A few days later, people discovered that there were fish in the pool, and those candy bars were all eaten by the fish. People are very angry. At this moment, a person shouted, "Everyone, fish are most afraid of water chestnuts. You can use clean grass leaves to wrap glutinous rice candy sticks and make them into diamond shaped ones!" Later, people threw the wrapped candy sticks into the pool, and when the fish saw the glutinous rice candy sticks, they thought they were water chestnuts, so they didn't dare to eat them. So people call glutinous rice candy bars "Zongzi".The cooked Zongzi is delicious and delicious. There are mung bean flavored, jujube flavored, sausage flavored, and so on, and these are the three types that we usually pack at home. I like to eat all three of them.
Zongzi and Dragon Boat Festival are close friends. Because I like eating Zongzi, I also like the Dragon Boat Festival.

I have been particularly fond of rowing since I was young. Until now, I still have to pester my mother to go boating at West Lake every weekend. So I also really enjoy dragon boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival. The scene of dragon boat racing was very lively, with waves of gongs and drums, waves of laughter and cheers, and waves of shouting. The contestants were dressed in colorful holiday costumes, working together to row forward quickly. Look, the red team is temporarily! The green team is also unwilling to be outdone and is striving to catch up. The green team caught up with the red team... and it was so lively, chasing after each other.
There are many customs about the Dragon Boat Festival, such as eating "Five Yellow" (five yellow colored foods, such as yellow croaker, eel, egg yolk, cucumber, realgar wine, etc.) and wearing incense bags. Every year at this time, I smell that familiar scent. Grandma said that sachets are meant to ward off evil and carry a hundred poisons without invasion. Oh, don't believe it, give it a try.

Not long after, her mother came back, carrying vegetables in her right hand and a large bag of mysterious things in her left hand and putting them into the kitchen.

The Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month is an old custom in China for more than 2000 years. Every day, every household hangs a statue of Zhong Kui, hangs a calamus leaf, races dragon boats, eats Zongzi, drinks realgar wine, swims through diseases, and wears sachets.The Dragon Boat Festival originated from the Warring States period, when there was a Chu man named Qu Yuan who served as an official by the King of Chu and was a loyal minister. The foolish king of Chu believed the words of his ministers and demoted Qu Yuan to exile. During his exile, Qu Yuan heard that the capital of Chu was occupied by the enemy and the people suffered, and he was extremely sad and angry. On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, he came to the Miluo River, embraced a stone, and jumped into the Miluo River. The people who went abroad were deeply saddened when they heard the news of Qu Yuan's investment in the river. With tears in their eyes, they rowed boats to salvage Qu Yuan, and threw Zongzi into the river to feed fish, hoping that the fish would not hurt Qu Yuan's body. This is the origin of Zongzi made in May.
And the dragon boat race was fought by the Chu people because they couldn't bear to part with the death of their wise minister Qu Yuan, so many people rowed boats to chase and save them. They were eager to catch up and disappeared when they reached Dongting Lake, which is the origin of dragon boat racing. Later, on May 5th every year, they would row dragon boats to commemorate it. Zongzi is a kind of Zongzi made of rice and other food, which was thrown into the river to protect Qu Yuan's body.
Children also need to hang sachets. Children wearing sachets during the Dragon Boat Festival not only have the intention of warding off evil and dispelling plague, but also have the style of embellishing the collar. The sachet contains cinnabar, realgar, and fragrant herbs, wrapped in silk cloth, exuding a refreshing fragrance. Then, five colored silk threads are strung together to create various shapes, forming a string that is colorful and exquisite.
The Dragon Boat Festival also has the habit of hanging mugwort leaves and calamus: During the festival, every family uses calamus, mugwort leaves, pomegranates, garlic, and dragon boat flowers to create human figures and call them mugwort people. Hang mugwort leaves in the hall, cut them into the shape of tigers or cut ribbons into small tigers, and stick them with mugwort leaves. Women compete to wear them to ward off evil and drive away malaria. Using calamus as a sword and inserting it into the lintel, it has the magical effect of dispelling demons and ghosts.

The fifth day of May is the Dragon Boat Festival. Speaking of the Dragon Boat Festival, I also know its other name! Such as Dragon Boat Festival, Poet's Day, Daughter's Day, etc.Zongzi is eaten on the Dragon Boat Festival to commemorate the ancient poet Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan wrote many poems and put forward many patriotic political proposals throughout his life, but the King of Chu did not adopt them. Finally, the territory of Chu was occupied, and Qu Yuan, filled with sorrow and anger, jumped into the river and committed suicide. In order to commemorate him and pay homage to him, people throw Zongzi and many delicious food into the river every year on this day, so as to prevent fish from eating Qu Yuan's corpse.
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, I asked my mother how Zongzi was made. My mother said: Zongzi is made of green, fresh reed leaves wrapped with white glutinous rice and dates. If there is no dates, beans can be used instead. To cook it, it needs to be cooked overnight. After cooking, peeling off the dark green reed leaves, you can see the pure white glutinous rice and jujube balls inside, which are both delicious and sweet, and not greasy to eat. It is both an appetizing delicacy and a nutritious tonic.
The Dragon Boat Festival is so happy and fun! I have learned knowledge again and expanded my horizons. It's great to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival!

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.Let me tell you the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival first!
The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the May 5th Festival, is one of the three important festivals in China. The other two are the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Lunar New Year.
The origin of this festival comes from a knowledgeable and talented official in ancient China, Qu Yuan. He was a patriotic and respected official, but due to a jealous official framing him, he was neglected by the emperor in the court. Unable to gain the emperor's attention, Qu Yuan hesitated and threw himself into the Luojiang River.
Due to their love for Qu Yuan, the residents on the banks of the Guluo River hurriedly rowed boats in search of him and threw rice into the river to pacify the dragons in the river. Even though they did not find Qu Yuan at the time, their actions are still celebrated and commemorated today during the Dragon Boat Festival.
Then, let me talk about how I lived! The custom of the Dragon Boat Festival is to eat Zongzi and race dragon boats. My mother, who is a real Zongzi wrapping expert in my family, said that Zongzi was wrapped in reed leaves and eaten. My mother first took a piece of reed leaves and rolled a tube, then put some rice, another jujube, then rice, and a few more dates. When it was full, she tied them with string. So one Zongzi was finished, and then dozens more were wrapped. Finally, boil in a pressure cooker for 40 minutes, then let it out and wait for four hours to taste before eating. It is sweet and delicious.
On the evening of the Dragon Boat Festival, many children in our yard came out to play. Some of them played play badminton, some played snake board, and some rode car racing. It was very lively. In this way, I had a happy and unforgettable Dragon Boat Festival.
