In the long-term historical development, the people of China have endowed carp with rich cultural connotations.

"The Book of Songs Chen Feng Heng Men" says: "Whoever marries a wife must be ginger; Is it that it eats fish, and it will be the carp in that river? Will associate carp with marriage, and future generations will use "the joy of fish and water" to wish a happy marriage. In some places, when weddings are held, there is a ceremony of "carp sprinkling", that is, when the bride walks out of the sedan chair, the man's men scatter copper coins everywhere, so carp becomes an auspicious symbol of blessing and praying for reproduction. The ancients used fish-shaped boards as envelopes (letters for collecting books) to deliver letters, so carp was a symbol of friendship and love in ancient poems.
