Excellent emotional prose of Dragon Boat Festival

Dragon Boat Festival is one of the traditional folk festivals in China.

The Dragon Boat Festival was originally extended to the Dragon Boat Festival. When I was a child, the ancient legend about Dragon Boat Festival haunted me all the time. Northeast China is also the hometown of Manchu (Nuzhen), which has been invaded by other nationalities for thousands of years. It is said that a nation called "the eldest son" is very overbearing, and every household is forced to arrange a man and a woman as the eldest son. They were afraid that our border people would rise up and resist, so they put their kitchen knives on the well platform and locked them collectively with chains. Every time a woman cooks and cuts vegetables, she will come to the well platform to cut vegetables. This big purple that was put at home is even more arrogant. Whoever's son marries a new wife has to "sleep" this big purple first ... For this reason, people have long hated the ugly behavior of big purple, so they have prepared a plan to kill big purple, and the time is set at the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. In order to act at the same time, mugwort is inserted on the eaves of every household as a signal of action, and beautiful gourds are made of colored paper and folded into gourds. Stuffed on mugwort and under the eaves of a thatched cottage, I didn't expect that the action to destroy the tyrant was postponed or leaked for some reason, which made the action plan to kill Da Zi unsuccessful. Later, the action to kill Da Zi was arranged on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month. Workshops around the world make moon cakes by writing secret notices on paper in advance, folding them into pamphlets and putting them in the stuffing of moon cakes. When people bought these moon cakes with important information and put them at home, on the morning of August 15, they broke open the moon cakes and found a note inside. When they opened it, they saw that Da Zi was killed on this day, so the anger that had been pressed in people's chests for many years erupted like a dormant volcano, causing many evils. Although the killing of Daiko on the fifth day of May was unsuccessful, it made the poor border people remember this day. People called it Life Extension Festival, and later gradually called it Dragon Boat Festival or May Festival. Up to now, people in Heilongjiang and most parts of the three northeastern provinces still call the Dragon Boat Festival the May Festival.

Although this is only an ancient legend, it is impossible to verify its authenticity, but it does reflect the heroic and fearless struggle of our border people against foreign invasion!

Dragon Boat Festival is an outing season. For thousands of years, how many scholars have given it new meaning; "The festival is divided into the Dragon Boat Festival, and it has been widely rumored that it is Qu Yuan throughout the ages; Laugh at the emptiness of the Chu River; Can't wash directly. " The fifth day of May is the day when Qu Yuan was martyred. In order to commemorate Qu Yuan, in most parts of the south, the broad masses of people threw zongzi made with one heart and one mind into the Miluo River, and this custom is still preserved to commemorate this great poet who loves a country. Later, after the Dragon Boat Festival, the custom of commemorating Qu Yuan was handed down in Asian countries. It seems that this festival is spreading all kinds of sad stories on the ancient land of China.

Although Qu Yuan lived in the Warring States period 2,300 years ago, he was concerned about the country and the people and struggled for the rise and fall of the country all his life. When I was young, I had a heart to serve my country. With his amazing talent, I won the trust of Chu Huaiwang, and my official position was promoted to "leftist" minister in charge of internal affairs and foreign affairs.

At that time, it was the war period when the seven chivalrous men competed for hegemony. Qin boldly used reform talents. Shang Yang's political reform was carried out in the State of Qin, and it soon became strong. Often attacking six countries, Chu is in danger. At that time, only Chu and Qi were competing with Qin. Under the severe situation, Qu Yuan proposed to improve internal affairs with his extraordinary thinking. In the aspect of safeguarding national interests, he advocated uniting with Qi to fight against Qin, which directly affected the interests of the upper class and offended those narrow-minded upper class people, such as some minions, Shangguan doctors and Ling Pepper. Alienated Qu Yuan and exiled to the Northern Han Dynasty. Full of grief and indignation, at the age of 62, he resolutely threw himself into the Miluo River. This day is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.

However, when we were young, we felt more carefree happiness about the Dragon Boat Festival.

On this day, an outing to Wuding Mountain in my hometown is what we look forward to most. Every holiday, the production team kills a fat pig, and each family can get a few jins of pork and a meal of jiaozi stuffed with pork and leeks. The children on our farm prepared colorful paper the other day and folded many beautiful gourds. According to the method of folding gourd, we can also fold double-sided gourd, and tie a string of colorful spikes under the gourd to Artemisia argyi. At dawn, I picked mugwort leaves with adults and children in the village at the foot of the mountain, tied a delicate and beautiful paper gourd and put it under the eaves of doors or windows, even under the eaves of barns. The thatched cottage in the small village was beautifully dressed by this colorful gourd.

Zhong is my childhood friend and neighbor, and his enthusiasm for the Dragon Boat Festival is even higher than mine.

I remember one year when the Dragon Boat Festival came, we agreed to get up before dawn on the first day and wash our faces with dew in the wheat field at the foot of the mountain. According to legend, it can brighten people's hearts. Whether it is true or not, we really did it with a sincere heart.

At 3: 30 in the morning, I was awakened by the sound of the clock knocking on the window lattice in a deep sleep. I quickly put on my pajamas and followed him out of the village in a daze. Looking up, the hill has disappeared in the white fog, and five distant mountains are among them. We can't see his true face clearly. Dew in the wheat field at the foot of the mountain soaked our vamps. We touched the wheat seedlings more than a foot high with our hands, and our hands were immediately soaked by dew. We washed our faces with this dew, which was refreshing and the dew on our hands was slightly sweet. Soon, on the vast horizon, clouds will hold up the red sun, and with the rising sun in Ran Ran, the morning dew in these wheat fields will soon be evaporated by the scorching sun. Chenlu's life is short, and her whole life process magically forms and disappears in the hours after midnight and early morning. They seem to be fairies falling from the sky, visiting the world again and again, and when the sun rises, they turn into white fog and return to heaven with a brand-new attitude.

We picked some mugwort by the roadside and went back to the village. Looking back at the small mountain village, we had finished smoking gracefully.

Presumably, my parents have prepared delicious jiaozi, eggs and duck eggs stuffed with pork and leeks for me. After breakfast, I will go to Wuding Mountain for an outing with Zhong. Red and golden lilies and beautiful peony flowers stand on the main peak of Wuding Mountain, overlooking the east of the Yangtze River (Songhua River). The majestic momentum is so touching. The green wheat fields on both sides of the Songhua River are intertwined with seedlings that have not been covered with fields.
