On the fifth day of May every year, every household celebrates the Dragon Boat Festival.It is said that in 278 BC, the Qin army captured the capital of Chu. Qu Yuan watched as his homeland was invaded, and his heart was cut like a knife. On May 5th, after writing his masterpiece "Huaisha", he threw himself into the Luojiang River with a stone and died. After Qu Yuan's death, the people were very sad and rushed to the riverbank to pay tribute to him. The fishermen rowed their boats and salvaged his body on the river. A fisherman took out the prepared Rice and vegetable roll and threw it into the river, saying that if the fish and shrimp were full, Qu Yuan would not be harmed. From then on, on May 5th, the Dragon Boat Festival began with the custom of eating brown seeds and racing dragon boats.
There are many customs during the Dragon Boat Festival, among which in the Jianghuai region, every household hangs a statue of Zhong Kui to ward off evil spirits. The origin of this custom dates back to one night during Emperor Ming's reign, when he dreamed of two ghosts. The little ghost stole Yang Guifei's sachet and his jade flute, and ran away. The big ghost caught the little ghost and swallowed it in one gulp. Emperor Ming shouted, "Who is it?". The Great Ghost said, "I am Zhong Kui, willing to eliminate demons and demons for Your Majesty." After Emperor Ming woke up, he ordered the painter Wu Daozi to paint a portrait of Zhong Kui according to his dream, and instructed the world to post a portrait of Zhong Kui during the Dragon Boat Festival. From then on, the Dragon Boat Festival became the custom of hanging the statue of Zhong Kui.
The customs of the Dragon Boat Festival include drinking realgar wine, wearing sachets, and so on.

The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival, and I sang the catchy children's song: "The fifth lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival. Insert wormwood leaves, take sachets. Eat Zongzi, sprinkle sugar. The dragon boat is in the water happily." Grandma tied red, yellow, blue, white and black silk threads to my neck, wrists and ankles while singing the children's song. Out of curiosity, I asked my grandmother, "What is the use of these silk threads?" My grandmother said, "These silk threads are called 'Long Life Thread', which can bless you with a hundred years of life." After listening to my grandmother's answer, I asked another question: "What are those things hanging on the door called?" "They are called 'Five Ends', which are calamus, mugwort, pomegranate flowers, garlic, and dragon boat flowers." My grandmother replied.Because we wanted to prevent the breeding of poisonous insects, my parents, grandmother, and I carried out a thorough cleaning of the house and put all the garbage in the trash can.
After the cleaning, we had lunch. This meal was very special because the main food was Zongzi! And it's still wrapped in yellow bean paste. When I was eating, my grandma told me, "Five yellows will be eaten on the Dragon Boat Festival." I still couldn't understand, so I asked my grandma, "What are the five yellows?"

Every year on the Dragon Boat Festival, we eat Zongzi, race dragon boats, and hang wormwood leaves. I like watching the dragon boat race. This race is not to compete for the best, but to show their skillful skills and good posture in front of the audience.Let me talk about Zongzi first. Zongzi is a glutinous rice and jujube wrapped in dark green reed leaves. After cooking, peeling off the reed leaves, I saw several deep red and shiny agates embedded in the rice ball, which looked very beautiful. The taste of Zongzi is very beautiful. The reed leaves emit a delicate fragrance. A bite of Zongzi is sweet but not greasy.
Zongzi has a long story. It is said that eating Zongzi is to commemorate the ancient poet Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan wrote many poems and put forward many patriotic political proposals throughout his life, but the monarch did not adopt them. Later, when the king fell, he jumped into the river full of sorrow and anger to commit suicide. The people still remember and respect him. For more than 2000 years, people have thrown Zongzi into the river as a sacrifice to poets—— This is the origin of Zongzi. Yes, how can people forget the great poet Qu Yuan during the Dragon Boat Festival?
The folk saying goes, "During the Qingming Festival, insert willows, and during the Dragon Boat Festival, insert mugwort.". During the Dragon Boat Festival, people consider inserting mugwort and calamus as one of the important contents. Every household is sweeping the courtyard, with calamus and mugwort sticks inserted on the eyebrows of the door, hanging in the hall. And using calamus, mugwort leaves, pomegranates, garlic, and dragon boat flowers to create a human or tiger shape, called mugwort people or mugwort tigers; Made into garlands and accessories, beautiful and fragrant, women eagerly wear them to ward off malaria.

I'll tell you. Because the patriotic poet Qu Yuan died trying to salvage the river. Throw Zongzi into the river and let the fish, shrimp and crabs eat enough, instead of eating Qu Yuan's body.
There is another legend about the Dragon Boat Festival, which is just to commemorate Wu Zixu! Wu Zixu was a native of the state of Chu. His father and brothers were both killed by the King of Chu. Later, Wu Zixu defected from the shadows and rushed to the state of Wu to help it conquer Chu. He fought five battles and entered the capital of Chu, Ying City. At that time, King Ping of Chu had already died. Wu Zixu dug up the tomb and whipped King Chu to avenge his father and brother's death. After the death of King Wu, his son Fuchai succeeded to the throne. The morale of the Wu army was high, and they won every battle. The materials of the Yue state were defeated greatly. King Goujian hoped to make peace, but Fuchai allowed it. Wu Zixu suggested that the state of Yue should be completely eradicated. Fu Chai refused to listen and was the great ruler of Wu, slandering and framing Wu Zixu. Fu Chai believed it and bestowed Wu Zixu with a sword, which led to Wu Zixu's death. Wu Zixu was originally a loyal and virtuous person who regarded death as his return. Before his death, he said to his neighbors, "After I die, I will dig out my eyes and hang them on the east gate of Wu Capital to see the army of Yue enter the city and destroy Wu." He then committed suicide. When Fu Chai heard this, he was furious and took Wu Zixu's body, put it in leather, and threw it into the river on May 5th. Therefore, it is said that the Dragon Boat Festival is also a day to commemorate Wu Zixu.

The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional Chinese festival. On this day, people eat Zongzi. In the south, people also have customs such as dragon boat racing and drinking yellow wine. Do you still remember Qu Yuan, a patriotic general of the state of Chu? Let me tell you.Qu Yuan was a native of the State of Chu during the Warring States period and was very knowledgeable. Although Qu Yuan was loyal to King Huai of Chu, the wicked King of Chu listened to his ministers and exiled Qu Yuan. During the exile process, Qu Yuan heard that the capital of Chu was occupied by the enemy, and the people were deeply affected, which made him extremely angry. So Qu Yuan came to the Miluo River on May 5th. He held a stone in his arms and jumped into the Miluo River. The people of Chu were very sad when they heard the news of Qu Yuan jumping into the river. With tears in their eyes, they rowed to save Qu Yuan and threw Zongzi into the river to feed the fish, hoping that the fish would not hurt Qu Yuan's body. This is the place where Zongzi is made in May.
Let me talk about the origin of dragon boat races. At that time, the Chu people couldn't bear to let Qu Yuan die, so many people went boating to save him. When they chased him to Dongting Lake, there was no trace of him. Afterwards, a dragon boat race will be held on May 5th every year to commemorate Qu Yuan. Dragon boat races are used to disperse the fish in the river to avoid eating Qu Yuan's body.
There is also a habit of hanging mugwort leaves and calamus during the Dragon Boat Festival. During the Dragon Boat Festival, every family takes the shape of a person with calamus leaves, mugwort leaves, durian flowers, garlic, and dragon boat flowers, known as the Ai people. Ai Ye is hung in the hall, cut into the shape of a tiger or cut into the ribbon of a little tiger, and then pasted with Ai Ye. Women are eager to wear it to fight against malaria. Acorus calamus is used as a sword, inserted on the lintel, and has the magical effect of exorcism and exorcism.

Today is the traditional Chinese Dragon Boat Festival - May 5th. After lunch, our family went to Jinshui Lake in Zhuqi, Minhou to watch dragon boat races.On the way to Zhuqi, the sky suddenly filled with dark clouds. Soon, it began to drizzle. When we arrived at the competition venue, the lake was already crowded with people. When I found my seat, the four boats were ready to start the race. There are four tracks in the center of the lake, with four buoys on the tracks. Whoever gets the flag on the buoy first is the champion.
The competition has started. Four ships rushed out of the starting point together. Only listening to the sound of drums and gongs, the second and third ships occupied the first and second seats.
The sprint has begun. The third dragon boat and the second dragon boat are on par. Afterwards, the two dragon boats almost simultaneously reached the finish line. Only when the crew of the third dragon boat lifted their oars above their heads did they know that the third dragon boat had won.
The preliminary round has ended. The last four teams selected from the first four preliminary matches will advance to the finals. I can't take my gaze away from it. Only one colorful flare was released from the lake. The competition has started. Success or failure lies in this one move. Four dragon boats have all rushed out of the starting point. In the first 300 meters, four dragon boats sailed side by side on the lake.
With only 300 meters left, four ships began to sprint. The first and fourth dragon boats slowly moved away from the other two. The dragon boat in the fourth lane suddenly accelerated with only 100 meters left in third place, and ultimately won the championship with a lead of 3-4 seconds.
I believe that the team that wins the championship must be a united team.

It's time for the Dragon Boat Festival, which is filled with the fragrance of brown seeds, and it reminds me of the customs of our hometown's Dragon Boat Festival.When I was five years old, I celebrated the Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown of Hunan. That morning, my dad led me to watch a dragon boat race. Before we reached the riverbank, we could hear the sound of gongs and drums from a distance, which was very lively. As I approached, there were many colorful flags planted by the river, and there were crowds of people on the shore. Five dragon boats were lined up in the river, and rowers were preparing with their hands clenched. The official competition has begun, with only one sound of gunfire. Five dragon boats are sailing forward like five arrows departing from the strings, chasing after each other and competing to be the first. Cheers, drums and gongs, cheers... unusually lively.
At this moment, there was a continuous drizzle in the sky, but people didn't care at all and were completely immersed in this joyful ocean. Amidst the cheers of people, a boat reached its finish line, and laughter and cheers grew louder.
I saw the busy people on the bank throwing Zongzi and eggs into the river, and I was very surprised to ask: "Dad, what are they doing, why should they throw good Zongzi into the water?" Dad said: "The dragon boat race originated from the ancient Chu people who were reluctant to part with their virtuous minister Qu Yuan to die in the river, and many people rowed to catch up and save him. They scrambled to catch up with him when they reached Dongting Lake. Later, they rowed dragon boats to commemorate him every May 5. They used dragon boats to drive away the fish in the river, and at the same time, they threw Zongzi and other food to feed the fish to avoid the fish eating Qu Yuan's body."
I love the Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown. The patriotic poet Qu Yuan in our hometown is worthy of our eternal remembrance.
