In fact, there are many customs in the Dragon Boat Festival. It has a very rich cultural connotation. Apart from eating zongzi, rowing dragon boats and wearing sachets are also indispensable items in the Dragon Boat Festival, but few people can see dragon boats in the north.
Before the Dragon Boat Festival, reporters found many reeds and sticky rice on the market in Xingtai, all for the coming Dragon Boat Festival.
Many people say that the Dragon Boat Festival is not to eat rice dumplings, mainly because of the memory of Qu Yuan.
What cultural connotation does the Dragon Boat Festival contain? Is the Dragon Boat Festival custom in Xingtai different from other places? The reporter interviewed Zhang Heling, a member of the Chinese Folk Artists Association and a member of the Chinese Calligrapher Association.
"Dragon Boat Festival" is a traditional folk festival in China. It is also a festival. The meaning of the Dragon Boat Festival is the beginning. The Dragon Boat Festival indicates that summer has arrived, and all kinds of small animals and insects are also active. The ancient people were afraid that these worms would get into people's bodies, and they would use the sachet and drink the realgar wine to dispel the disease.
Zhang Heling said.
According to Professor Zhang Heling's introduction, the Dragon Boat Festival has a history of thousands of years. It is the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient Chinese people. In the Dragon Boat Festival, people usually wear sachets, drink realgar wine, insert Artemisia argyi leaves, and wear children's five poison shoes.
"Snakes, scorpion, house lizard, toad and centipede are five kinds of poisons commonly believed. To wear children's five poison shoes is to keep these five poisons away."
Whether it is wearing five poison shoes or wearing perfume bags are all for the purpose of dispel disease and pray for peace. Now Xingtai is also popular with children wearing five poison shoes.
It should be said that the Dragon Boat Festival is rich in content, but many customs no longer exist.
"In the past, realgar wine was used to cure diseases, especially in ancient times, where people lived in bungalows, and there were many kinds of worms in summer. Now these conditions are no longer available, so there is basically no use of realgar wine."
Zhang Heling said that there was another legend about the Dragon Boat Festival. In May 5th, doctor Chu of Miluo threw herself into the river of MI Luo. The local people found the body of Qu Yuan in the Miluo River, but they could not find it for a long time. People feared that the water people would eat the corpse of Qu Yuan and put all kinds of food into the river.
Later, some people dreamed of Qu Yuan saying that the food that people threw into the river had been eaten by the aquatic animals. He could not eat anything, so that people could wrap the food into rhombus and then put it into the water, so that when the water people saw the rhomboid thing, they would not digest it. This is the earliest zongzi.
There was also a poisonous dragon in the river. Later, a doctor poured the realgar wine into the river, and the body of the poisonous dragon blew up on the second day.
Gradually, people put the boat as Jackie Chan's sample in the water, so that the water people in the river thought that dragons would not dare to come near Qu Yuan.
Later, in the early May of the year five, there were customs of dragon boat racing, eating zongzi and drinking realgar wine, in order to commemorate the patriotic poet Qu Yuan.
In fact, before the memorial to Qu Yuan, the Dragon Boat Festival had already existed.
Eating zongzi and wearing five poisons shoes on Dragon Boat Festival in Xingtai
The custom of rowing Dragon Boat originated from commemorating Qu Yuan. However, the geographical conditions in the north are very different from those in the south, and gradually only keep the custom of eating zongzi.
Zongzi is usually made of Zongye and glutinous rice.
Now in Xingtai, the dumplings are mainly made of reed leaves, glutinous rice and jujube. Some of them are also added to peanuts and raisins. They are said to be mixed with meat stuffing in zongzi, but rarely seen now.
Dragon Boat Festival children wearing five poison shoes have a symbol of insect resistance, five poison shoes are usually made of red cloth for upper, and some places are green satin for uppers, embroidered toads on the upper face of the vamp, embroidered with centipede, scorpion, house lizard, snake venomous insect on the upper.
Nowadays, the five poison shoes are sold in the market, and they are making fewer and fewer shoes for their children.
