What is begging in traditional festivals?

1, jiaozi. The custom of begging for cleverness in Juancheng, Cao Xian, Pingyuan and other places is very interesting: seven good girls collect food and vegetables, jiaozi, and put a copper coin, a needle and a red date into three jiaozi respectively. After begging for wisdom, they got together to eat jiaozi. It is said that they were rich, good at sewing and got married early.

2. Appropriate fruit. On this day, all parts of Zhejiang make various small objects with flour, which are called "proper fruits" after being fried in oil. In the evening, appropriate fruits, lotus, white lotus root and Hong Ling are displayed in the yard. Proper fruit is the most famous holiday food in Chinese Valentine's Day. Proper fruit, also called "Kiki Fruit", has many styles. The main materials are oil, flour, sugar and honey. "Dream of China in Tokyo" refers to it as "laughing boy" and "eating fruit patterns", and the patterns include holding incense and winning prizes.

3, clever bud noodles. Besides eating proper fruits, in some places, on the seventh day of July, we eat smart bud noodles. To make bean sprouts with smart buds, you should choose a small bowl of mung beans that are not eaten by insects seven days in advance, wash them, spread them on the plate, cover them with wet gauze to keep out the sun, put them on the kang, and spray water several times a day to keep them moist. Seven days later, when the bean sprouts grow to two or three centimeters long, they can be made into handmade noodles, boiled in a pot and pulled through with cold water; Then put oil in a hot pan, stir-fry diced meat, stir-fry onion and ginger, stir-fry soy sauce and vinegar, stir-fry mung bean sprouts, add water to boil, and then add salt and monosodium glutamate to make bean sprout soup; Grab the noodles into a bowl and pour them with bean sprout soup.
