Our Festival-Dragon Boat Festival Essay

In my childhood memory, apart from the Spring Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival is the most lively. Because my parents were very busy at work, I often stayed in the country with my grandmother when I was a child. I will never forget the Dragon Boat Festival at that time. Like the usual Chinese New Year holidays, the night before the Dragon Boat Festival, my grandmother always asked me to sit by the bed and told me some holiday rules, such as "Don't talk nonsense", "Don't steal cold dumplings", "Don't play with friends" and "Don't play with water" ... I always nodded frequently. Grandma told me to go to bed early so that I could have a good spirit tomorrow. In the morning, I got up early, got dressed and ran to the kitchen. By this time, my grandmother had taken care of everything in the kitchen. Several bundles of cinnamon leaves and cinnamon ropes were tied to the stove, and the white and tender glutinous rice lay quietly in a small wooden bucket filled with water, like glittering pearls. There are several small dishes on the stove, which contain various ingredients: peanuts, bean paste and brown sugar. So, I sat at the table eating breakfast while watching my grandmother busy. Put the eggs in the pot. Soon, when the eggs were ripe, grandma picked up the biggest one, dipped it in red paper and dyed it red, then wiped it clean with a dry cloth, put it in the sideline and hung it around my neck. Then, grandma put melon seeds, candy and peanuts in my pocket. I am often very happy because I have something delicious again. Grandma always sends me to the gate and tells me to come back early to eat zongzi. I always disappear and play with my friends. The sun slowly climbed into the sky, and the fragrance of laurel leaves was already floating in grandma's kitchen. I quickly jumped into the kitchen to pick up a big cooked zongzi. Generally, I will sit on the threshold and eat zongzi cleanly. Occasionally, I will leave some glutinous rice for the chickens. I also find it fun to watch the big rooster's gluttony ... Although my mother makes zongzi every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, although my mother's craftsmanship is not worse than grandma's, I always feel that something is missing. When I was young, I really missed the Dragon Boat Festival! I haven't returned to my hometown for the New Year for many years. I really miss the delicious triangular dumplings. There are many customs in my hometown, but I don't remember much. This is a baisuozi. Grandma twists five-color silk threads into strings every year, which is very long. When I got up the next morning, my arms were already tied. Needless to say, grandma came to me first. Stickers There are stickers on the doorframes every year. Some are folded with monochrome yellow paper, and some are woven with five-color paper. Grandma once taught me how to fold, and now I have forgotten all about it. I really can't remember other customs, but I can't forget the hundreds of zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival every year. It's not easy to wrap zongzi. Be sure to fold the leaves of zongzi, otherwise it will "show the stuffing" Although it is difficult to wrap, there are many kinds: rice wrapped in red dates, millet wrapped in candied dates and rice wrapped in zongzi. It takes a long time to cook zongzi in a big pot. I often have to wait for my mouth to water, but my grandmother still won't give it to me. Cooking is too difficult. The newly cooked zongzi is not delicious. Once, I didn't wait until I was full before I realized that my tongue was blistered. Immediately put these delicious zongzi into a basin full of cold water to cool down, and I have already eaten them. Many days later, there will always be zongzi for three meals a day. . The delicious zongzi reminds me of my thoughts, and the sweet shouting reminds me of my thoughts. Dragon Boat Festival is one of the four major festivals throughout the year. May is the poison month, the fifth day is the poison day, and the noon on the fifth day is the poison time, ranking at the bottom of the three poisons. The Dragon Boat Festival is also called "the end of May". May is the beginning of the whole hot day. Five poisonous snakes are active and ghosts are rampant, which will bring disaster to people, especially to children who have no scruples and no resistance. Therefore, people call May Day Children's Day or Doll's Day. The activities of the Dragon Boat Festival are very rich, starting from dawn in the morning and continuing until noon. Zongzi is usually wrapped the day before, cooked at night and eaten in the morning. The traditional form of zongzi is a triangle, which is generally named after the inner pulp. Glutinous rice is called rice zongzi, red bean zongzi is called red bean zongzi, and jujube zongzi is called jujube zongzi. Jujube jiaozi homophones "junior high school", so it eats the most. Children who plan to study can win the championship early. In the past, Jinshi ate jujube jiaozi on the morning of taking the imperial examination. You must cook eggs in the pot where zongzi is cooked, and if possible, cook some duck eggs and goose eggs. After eating sweet zongzi dipped in sugar, eat eggs dipped in salt. It is said that eating boiled eggs in zongzi pot at the end of May will not cause sores in summer; At noon, put the duck eggs and goose eggs cooked in the zongzi pot in the sun for a while before eating, so that you won't have a headache all summer. On May 5th, it was Duanyang. Insert Artemisia argyi and put on the sachet. Eat zongzi and sprinkle sugar. The dragon boat went into the water happily. Although I haven't seen the dragon boat race, I think it must be very lively. I like the Dragon Boat Festival, because you can eat zongzi on it. Zongzi is delicious. It is from My Sweetie. It is really delicious! How delicious! Oh, stop it. My mouth watered when I said it. In my childhood memory, apart from the Spring Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival is the most lively. Because my parents were very busy at work, I often stayed in the country with my grandmother when I was a child.
