The legend about trotters has a long history, and the story about trotters can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty. According to legend, from the Tang Dynasty, the imperial examination met with his Jinshi.

Book name of Zhu Shu
After that, this agreement spread all over the world. Then one day, a foodie's brain opened wide and suddenly found that Zhu Shu's title was called Zhu Ti for short, and that was "pig's trotters". From then on, whenever someone rushed for the exam, relatives and friends gave him pig's trotters. "Pig" is homophonic with Zhu, and "hoof" is homophonic with the title. The original intention of giving pig's trotters is: I hope to be a champion, a candidate, become a relative, and I can also "write down the title of Zhu Shu"
