Origin: Jietuishi fled with Jin Wengong Zhong Er to avoid the pursuit of his father and concubine Li Ji. During his exile, he was in running all the way. Because of the unbearable hunger on the way to Jin Wengong, Jiexiu tried to save Zhong Er. Reluctantly, he cut a piece of meat from his leg and cooked it with fire and fed it to him.
Nine years later, Zhong Er returned to China and became a monarch. During his reign, he greatly rewarded the courtiers who fought bloody battles with him, but only forgot to push the meson. After being reminded by the minister, someone will be sent immediately. Who knows even meson push a few times not to please, Jin Wengong had to please. In order to avoid Jin Wengong's invitation, Jietui hid behind his mother's back in Mianshan (now southeast of Jiexiu County, Shanxi Province).
Jin Wengong sent body-guards to search the mountain, but they couldn't find it, so someone suggested setting fire to force his mother and son to come out. The fire burned for three days and nights, but there was still no meson to push the mother and son out. Everyone went up the mountain and saw that the mother and son were holding a charred willow tree and were dead! Jin Wengong cried for a while and occasionally found a tree hole behind the meson push. Hidden in the hole is a torn skirt with a poem written in blood:
I hope your master is always clear.
It is better to be a ghost than to accompany you as an exhorter.
If your master has me in his heart, remember that I often reflect.
I have a clear conscience in Jiuquan, diligent and honest.

Literary appreciation:
There are more than 50 words in a poem, and three "Qingming" are mentioned in succession, which means that his master Zhong Er should be diligent and clean, and never be a bad king. Jin Wengong hid the bloody book in his sleeve, and then buried the mother and son under the charred willow tree. To commemorate Jiezitui, Zhong Er ordered the construction of ancestral temple on the mountain, changed Mianshan into Jiezi Mountain, and named the willow tree Qingming Tree.
Therefore, in the past, people in Tomb-Sweeping Day had the custom of wearing green willows on their chests to show their nostalgia for meson push. Guangde Ganxi also had the saying that "Qingming doesn't wear willow and dies at the door". Jin Wengong, on the other hand, kept this poem written by meson in mind, always ruled the world with "diligence and Qingming", designated the day before Qingming every year as "Cold Food Festival" and ordered the people to eat cold food on this day.
After a long time, people make steamed buns with wormwood and rice flour, saying that eating wormwood can hold the soul and will not be taken away by evil spirits. They made wormwood Baba, which mainly contained bamboo shoots, bacon and sauerkraut. The wormwood Baba they made is very catchy whether it is cold or hot, and it tastes good when you take a bite.
