There are many traditional festivals in China, including the Dragon Boat Festival, the Double Ninth Festival, the Spring Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival... The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival, which is said to commemorate the great national poet Qu Yuan. Every fifth day of May, people have the custom of eating Zongzi, planting calamus, racing dragon boats, and drinking realgar wine.I like to eat Zongzi and watch Zongzi. This year's Dragon Boat Festival, Jiaxin Mao Plaza held a contest to make Zongzi. My mother signed up Grandma Li. We formed a cheering group, consisting of me, my parents, my grandmother, Qiqi, and Uncle Xia Yong. Arrived at the competition venue with a grand presence.
Wow, there are so many grandmothers participating in the competition, each with full confidence and eager to try. The host finished reading out the competition rules: Five people in a group, six minutes, to see who packed the most, didn't spill rice, and had a beautiful appearance. The competition of making Zongzi began officially. Soon, some grandmothers made eleven Zongzi, some grandmothers made six Zongzi, some grandmothers made trumpet shaped Zongzi, and some grandmothers made pillow shaped Zongzi. The competition was very fierce. Finally, it's Grandma Li's turn to play. We watched Grandma Li's game with a nervous heart. At the beginning of the competition, Grandma Li took two pieces of zongzi leaves and rolled them into a trumpet shape. She took the rolled zongzi leaves in her left hand, put two spoons of rice in her right hand, and then a package of small Zongzi came out. Granny Li quickly bit one end of the rope with her teeth, and the other end circled around Zongzi twice. With one effort, the rope broke. Grandma Li is starting to feel a bit flustered. We cheered Grandma Li on and she quickly adjusted. At the end of the competition, Granny Li had originally made eight Zongzi, but one had not tied the rope, and the other had spilled the rice on the ground as soon as he picked it up, so only six Zongzi could be counted. At the final evaluation, Grandma Li received a participation award.
We all had a very happy and joyful Dragon Boat Festival. I enjoy celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival.

Every Dragon Boat Festival, I always think of Lu You's "Yi Mao Chong Wu Shi": "The five mountain villages are good, and the pomegranate flowers have suddenly multiplied. Zongzi is divided into two buns, and wormwood wears a dangerous crown. The old custom is to store medicine, and the body is also to point pills. When I finish my work, I smile to the cup and plate." This poem describes the life of people in the Southern Song Dynasty on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival - eating Zongzi, inserting wormwood leaves, storing medicine, and dispensing prescri.ptions.So far, the Dragon Boat Festival still has the custom of eating Zongzi and racing dragon boats. In fact, eating Zongzi and racing dragon boats came to commemorate the patriotic poet Qu Yuan: Legend has it that Qu Yuan put forward many patriotic ideas at that time, but the king refused to accept them. Later, when the country fell, he was filled with grief and anger, so he threw himself into the river to commit suicide. This day happens to be the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. After hearing this news, some people who respected Qu Yuan rushed out of the boat to save him. In order to prevent fish and shrimp from eating his body, everyone threw food into the river, which later evolved into throwing Zongzi into the river. For more than 2000 years, people have offered Zongzi as a sacrifice to Qu Yuan.
The dragon boat race also has a legendary story about commemorating Qu Yuan. After Qu Yuan committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, the people of Chu died due to being unable to control their wise officials. Many people rowed boats to save them, but when they chased after them to Dongting Lake, they disappeared without a trace. Afterwards, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, Qu Yuan was commemorated by rowing a dragon boat. Use a dragon boat to disperse the fish in the river to prevent them from eating Qu Yuan's body. Nowadays, people have already repaired their dragon boats early on. From the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, dragon boats will be launched one after another, and the "yellow dragon", "white dragon", "red dragon", and "green dragon" that chop and chop waves will sail forward like arrows departing from the string. The sound of drums, gongs, cheers, and shouts formed a spectacular scene.
The various customs of the Dragon Boat Festival are all human aspirations for beautiful things. The various customs of the Dragon Boat Festival not only commemorate Qu Yuan, but also include health care. In fact, I believe that the Dragon Boat Festival is more of a symbol of patriotism. As the younger generation, shouldn't we learn from the patriotic poet Qu Yuan?

The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is one of China's traditional festivals - the Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival, Double Ninth Festival, or Double Ninth Festival. Nowadays, many activities of the Dragon Boat Festival are related to commemorating the great Chinese literary figure Qu Yuan. On the Dragon Boat Festival, every family will eat Zongzi, and dragon boat races will be held all over the south. Now let me introduce my family's Dragon Boat Festival! One of the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival is to eat Zongzi. Therefore, our family has a real master of making Zongzi that is my mother. In the morning, I learned to make Zongzi with my mother. Mom first takes three leaves, places two of them upright and one upside down, sandwiched in the middle, and then rolls these three leaves into a hollow round pheasant shape. I followed my mother's example and took three pieces to roll them into a conical shape, but they didn't roll well, and they rolled back and forth in a straight tube. When my mother saw it, she pointed it out and said, "Hold one corner of the zongzi leaf with your left hand, roll the other corner of the zongzi leaf with your right hand, pull it hard below, and relax it on top." With my mother's guidance, I rolled up the zongzi leaves.Then, my mother inserted a chopsticks in the hollow cone shaped Zongye, scooped some glutinous rice into it, and shook the chopsticks evenly until Zongzi was tightly wrapped and plump. I also put chopsticks and glutinous rice in the zongzi leaves. But when you shake your chopsticks, you either pierce the leaves or the Zongzi is not tightly wrapped. Mom said; " When shaking chopsticks, be gentle and pinch the zongzi leaves tightly. "Look..." Mom demonstrated while I listened and learned, haha! My Zongzi looks like something. The last tool is a tying rope. My mother held the leaves tightly with both hands, wrapped the rope around the sharp corner of Zongzi twice, tied the rope head, and wrapped a beautiful Zongzi. I also tied up the first characters of each sect accordingly. Then, the second and third ones... I packed several in a row.
Mother's Zongzi is fat and big, like an old Buddha sleeping. After mother has wrapped Zongzi, she will steam them in the pot for 30 minutes, then soak them in the soup for about an hour to make them tasty, and then you can eat them! These Zongzi are so fragrant that you will drool when you smell them. My dad and I, these two greedy cats, immediately surrounded the pot and asked my mom, "Mom, when can we eat it?" Mom smiled and said; "You two greedy cats!" Look, this is our Dragon Boat Festival!

The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional Chinese festival, and it is said that it belongs to Qu Yuan.I came to my grandmother's house with my parents to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival. Grandma has been waiting for us for a long time. As soon as I opened the car door, she came up to me with a smile and said, "My granddaughter has grown taller again!" When I walked into Grandma's house, I smelled a faint fragrance of plants and kept looking into the kitchen. Grandpa was making Zongzi. I quickly ran to my grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I also want to make Zongzi." My grandfather smiled and said, "OK, OK, I will teach you how to make it, but this Zongzi is not easy to wrap, you have to look carefully!" So my grandfather picked up the zongzi leaf from the middle to roll it into the shape of a funnel, and then spooned the rice into the zongzi leaf, almost half filled, and my grandfather scooped a red jujube into it, and then filled it with some glutinous rice, then folded the leaf inside, and wound the wrapped Zongzi with red thread, "The main thing is to wrap it tightly, otherwise the rice will leak out. Then it's time to stick the pan." Grandpa demonstrated to me, pulling the rope and finally tying a knot. A plump Zongzi dressed in dark green clothes is finished. I rolled up the leaves like my grandfather. Soon, my grandfather and I made a large plate of Zongzi. My grandfather carefully put Zongzi into the pot and steamed it for a while. A fresh smell came out of the pot and filled the kitchen. After a morning's cooking, Zongzi was out of the oven. At this moment, the aunts also arrived, and Grandpa's usually quiet house suddenly became lively. We chatted while eating, and we were so happy.
Suddenly my grandfather asked me, "Manjia, do you know how the Dragon Boat Festival came about?" "Of course!" I replied excitedly, "In ancient times, there was a patriotic poet named Qu Yuan. He saw his country was invaded by the enemy, and he didn't have the heart to see the country become like this. Finally, he threw himself into the Miluo River to express his patriotic determination. People didn't want him to die, so they rowed boats to salvage Qu Yuan. They were worried that the dragons and fish and shrimp in the river would eat his body, so they threw food into the river to fish and shrimp, hoping they wouldn't eat Qu Yuan's body. Later, people wrapped food with leaves and threw it into the river. The custom of eating Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival was like this I came." After listening to my explanation, everyone praised me as a learned and talented girl.
As a traditional festival in China, the Dragon Boat Festival has evolved over time and is now a time for family reunion and relaxation.

When I was young, I was very excited about the arrival of the Dragon Boat Festival because I admired Qu Yuan's excellent spiritual qualities. Therefore, he was very famous in China. In ancient times, emperors used the Dragon Boat Festival as a holiday to commemorate him, which made me see that ancient emperors still valued wise officials. I like the Dragon Boat Festival not only because I can learn a lot of knowledge and learn more about history.Every Dragon Boat Festival, my mother would spend an hour telling me a story about the Dragon Boat Festival. Although I heard this story every year, I never got tired of it. Instead, I had more daydreams about Qu Yuan's life in that era. When my mother was young, she would not make Zongzi, but I was particularly gluttonous and loved Zongzi, so she had to buy it for herself. In order to save money, my mother learned to make Zongzi, just to meet my requirements for eating Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival.
In addition, when the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, people are busy to make trouble for them. Sometimes I will be fascinated by what Zongzi stuffing they are making. If I am a glutton who likes Zongzi, I will stay at his house until I have a bite to eat. Every time I eat Zongzi, I think of the story of Qu Yuan that my mother told me. Qu Yuan is a patriotic warrior who loves his country, a hero of the people, and even more my idol. He encountered many setbacks when he lived in his age, but he is so strong that I particularly admire him. Qu Yuan is also my idol, so I will eat a lot of Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival to commemorate him.
I still remember that I would take a bath on the Dragon Boat Festival. It was a special bath. The water was soaked with medicinal herbs. My mother asked me to take such a bath every year, but I was reluctant to do so. Unless I ate Zongzi while taking a bath, my mother could not help me, so she promised me to take a bath like this. I will never forget the childhood memories of eating Zongzi while taking a bath. I accidentally lost Zongzi in the bath water without being steady. I cried for a long time because of that!
In my Dragon Boat Festival, I must eat Zongzi. Anyway, I have to do something for Qu Yuan. After all, my parents and teachers taught me not to waste food, so I can't throw Zongzi into the sea like those who remember Qu Yuan in ancient times, but I can throw Zongzi into my stomach, which is a memorial to Qu Yuan! Eat Zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival, for my idol.

It's delicious and crispy. Mom said that you can only eat this crispy and delicious cake during the Dragon Boat Festival every year.
After a while, I saw my grandmother bring some grass and insert it into the door. I asked my grandmother strangely, "What is this?"
My grandmother told me, "These are mugwort and calamus. Every household should put them on their doors during the Dragon Boat Festival because their stems and leaves can produce a unique fragrance, which can repel mosquitoes, flies, insects, ants, and evil spirits. It can drive out bad things." I was surprised to see that this grass has so many effects!
During lunch, I found my favorite eels, yellow croaker, and so on on on the table. My mother told me, "During the Dragon Boat Festival, we should eat the five yellows: eel, yellow croaker, cucumber, salted egg yolk, and realgar wine. Sprinkling realgar wine indoors can disinfect and kill bacteria, and drinking it is also beneficial for the human body."

I woke up from my sweet sleep and stretched my waist, thinking that today is the Dragon Boat Festival. I jumped out of bed excitedly and rushed to the kitchen to find my mother."Mom, today is the Dragon Boat Festival. I want to eat Zongzi!" I shouted as soon as I entered the kitchen. My mother "changed" a bunch of fat and big Zongzi from the bag like magic. The Zongzi sent out bursts of strong fragrance, which made my mouth water three thousand feet. I can't wait to take one to satisfy my craving.
My mother is like a little roundworm in my stomach, pointing at my small nose and saying, "Little greedy cat, I will make some for you to eat now." My mother used scissors to cut open the rope tied with Zongzi and peel off the two layers of bamboo leaves. Zongzi rolled over like a diver and landed in a bowl that his mother had already prepared. A piece of Zongzi with perfect color, fragrance and taste appeared in front of me. I saw that the Zongzi was black red and black red, dotted with black mushrooms, white and red meat, white eggs and glutinous rice, just like small pearls. These glutinous rice sticks to me, I stick to you, like the seven brothers.
I like the autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves. Regardless of the three or seven or twenty one, I ate them with a big mouth. Soon, I swept all the Zongzi away.
I didn't feel satisfied. I wanted to eat another one, so I said to my mother, "Mom, another Zongzi." My mother looked at me, and suddenly burst out laughing, laughing even tears. I saw my mother laughing like a clown in a circus. Even eyebrows cannot be spared. I quickly washed my face thoroughly with a towel.
I returned to the table and ate the second Zongzi with relish.
This Dragon Boat Festival is really fun!

Zongzi is a must for the Dragon Boat Festival. Today, my mother was teaching me to make Zongzi. LookZongzi must be prepared. Originally, my mother had already prepared glutinous rice that had been soaked for 3 hours, and also bought zongzi leaves. This preparation surprised me greatly.
I put the rice in the leaves, but all the rice was scattered on the table, and I was extremely angry. My mother said to me, "You need to make the leaves into a triangle shape and then put the rice inside."
So, I followed my mother's instructions and pressed on the rice, eh? What is in the middle of the plate next to it? So it's meat filling. I dug a small hole in the middle of the glutinous rice, made the meat filling into a round shape, stuffed it into the glutinous rice, and let it join the ranks of glutinous rice. How can it be sealed properly? I looked at my sister and understood everything.
I pressed down the raised leaf and tied it tightly with a rope. Success. I packed many according to the previous method. Now it's time to cook. First boil the water, and then put the Zongzi down.
After a while, Zongzi was cooked. The four of us sat at the table and ate Zongzi.
I untied the rope and was about to remove the leaves, but as soon as I touched it, I was scalded. Mom looked at it and laughed heartily. I was blowing and blowing, blowing away the heat. I carefully opened the leaves again and ate the 'delicious Zongzi' made by myself - white, fat, glutinous rice, wrapped with a ball of fresh and delicious meat stuffing, and put it into my mouth. It was not greasy, but also chewy. I felt very good.
So the Dragon Boat Festival passed, and I ate my own Zongzi in my mouth, thinking of the poem written by Du Fu, a poet of the Tang Dynasty: Palace clothes are also famous, and the Dragon Boat Festival was honored. Fine Ge is soft with a gentle breeze, fragrant Luo is layered with light snow. Wet from the sky, when the summer comes to clear. Refers to the length of the meaning, with a lifelong love of the Lotus Saint.
This is really a happy Dragon Boat Festival.

Dragon Boat Festival, one of my favorite two festivals, let me tell you how my family celebrates it!In the morning, my mother woke me up at 6:30 to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival. It was then that I remembered. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and I immediately put on my clothes and set off with my mother. My mother took me to the morning market. I found that the morning market was red. When I looked closely, I found that they were all colorful lines and gourds. I liked all the things I saw, but my mother only bought one for me. I picked one and picked one, and finally chose the most beautiful one. I thought so. I immediately wore it to my grandma's house, and smelled the fragrance when I entered the door. I immediately ran to the kitchen, and saw that the eggs and Zongzi in the plate made my mouth water. But my mother said that I could eat it at noon. Now you can eat an egg. Before my mother finished speaking, I ran away with the egg.
Soon at noon, I ate Zongzi, but I wondered why we should eat Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival? Mother said: "It is to commemorate the patriotic poet Qu Yuan, who died in the river on the fifth day of May. There is also a beautiful legend that the gods in the sky were moved by Qu Yuan and told the people that how many days Qu Yuan would become a god and never let fish and shrimp eat Qu Yuan's real body. So everyone threw Zongzi into the river to feed fish and shrimp. The fifth day of May is the Dragon Boat Festival, so we should eat Zongzi." I finally understood.
Today's Dragon Boat Festival, not only did I have a great time playing, but I also learned knowledge. I love the Dragon Boat Festival.

The Dragon Boat Festival approaches mid summer, with clear hours and long days. Every May 5th in the lunar calendar, the Dragon Boat Festival quietly arrives.I live in a small mountain village in my hometown. During the Dragon Boat Festival, my mother wakes up early and ties me a long life thread, which is a thin, five colored silk thread. It is said to tie my arms with colorful silk, and it is called "Bi Bing", which is not a disease or plague. Sometimes the colorless string fades, and when it gets wet, it turns the wrist red and blue, which is extremely fun.
My mother would use colorful paper to fold a chain of small treasure lanterns and hang them on the lintel. She said it symbolizes a year of abundant grain and worry free food and clothing.
When I was a child, for some reason, I had many large and purple pus on my body, which made me restless. At this moment, my grandfather said, "Wait, I'll go get some Artemisia." It wasn't until the afternoon that he came back. Boil the collected Artemisia annua in water and then take a bath with water, which can cure all kinds of diseases. The consequences of taking a shower really don't hurt anymore, it will get better in a few days.
Afterwards, I asked my grandfather for the reason. He said, "You're lucky to meet the Dragon Boat Festival, otherwise you'll have to endure it!" I still don't understand his meaning. Probably because it coincides with this magical holiday!
I also want to make Dragon Boat Festival wine in my hometown. After the first rain of spring, every household has already buried the Dragon Boat Festival wine underground for fermentation. There are six things inside, which are: Chinese date, lychee, goji berries, olives, longan, and almonds. The Dragon Boat Festival wine has a refreshing aroma when consumed, making it "fragrant from the spring and clear from the wine." Dragon Boat Festival wine can also enhance one's appearance. Nowadays, mothers also make it the same way, with the same ingredients, but the taste is different when consumed. I reminded my mother, "You're using the wine here, not the wine made in your hometown!"
Although my parents and I are not in our hometown now, I hope to go back and drink the Dragon Boat Festival wine made in our hometown every year in the future.
