Mid-Autumn Festival Custom Composition 1 The 15th day of the eighth lunar month is a traditional festival of the Chinese nation-Mid-Autumn Festival, also called the Reunion Festival. Su Shi wrote in Mid-Autumn Festival: "I hope people will live for a long time and have a beautiful scenery thousands of miles away." The expression is to pray that all lovers in the world can stay together for a long time and get together on this day to share this bright moon. Although the weather is not beautiful and it is raining, it can't stop people from going home. The streets are full of traffic, and people are carrying big bags, umbrellas and raincoats in a hurry. They seem to be thinking: No matter how heavy it rains, I must go home and reunite with my relatives today!
Although my mother's company issued moon cakes, my grandmother met her and asked my grandfather to go to the store to buy yeast and caustic soda in the rain. Her father wants to bake his own candy cakes. The noodles are finally ready, and only grandma turns caustic soda into solution and pours it into the noodles. After neutralizing the reaction with caustic soda, the sour noodle suddenly lost its sour taste. Grandma wrapped the sesame candy stuffing into the dough, made a round cake, and placed it neatly on the panel. The last process is branding. I saw grandma take out a flat-bottomed pot, which is a special pot for pancakes. I turn down the fire and bake it slowly on it. Soon, the smell of sugar cakes spread all over the house, and I couldn't help drooling after smelling a few mouthfuls. Because my mother had to work the night shift, our family cooked a lot of food and drank wine at noon. I take water as wine, wish my grandparents a long and healthy life, wish my parents a smooth job and wish myself academic progress!
Before mom left, dad said affectionately, "Today is the reunion festival. You should go home early, and my children and I will wait for you ... "From my father's words, I once again felt the charm of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a traditional Chinese festival.
Mid-Autumn Festival custom composition 2 "I wish people a long time and a thousand miles of good scenery." This poem, which has been handed down through the ages, is a masterpiece of enjoying the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, expressing the infinite memory of my brother Su Zhe. Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival in China with a history of thousands of years. On this day, people will go home to reunite with their families.
Mid-Autumn Festival, China has the custom of enjoying the moon since ancient times. There is a record of "autumn twilight and the moon" in the Book of Rites, that is, worshipping the moon god. In the Zhou Dynasty, every Mid-Autumn Festival night, activities to welcome the cold and offer sacrifices to the moon were held. Put a big incense table with seasonal fruits such as moon cakes, watermelons, apples, plums and grapes, among which moon cakes and watermelons are absolutely indispensable. Watermelon must be cut into lotus shapes. In the Tang Dynasty, it was quite popular to enjoy and play with the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In the Song Dynasty, the Mid-Autumn Festival was more popular to enjoy the moon. According to "Dream of Tokyo", "On the Mid-Autumn Festival night, your family is dressing up and the people are fighting for the restaurant to play the moon". On this day, all shops and restaurants in Beijing have to redecorate their facades, tie silk on archways and sell fresh fruits and refined food. The night market is very lively. Many people visit The Upper Terrace, and some wealthy families enjoy the moon in their pavilions and arrange food or family dinners to reunite their children. After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the custom of enjoying the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival remains the same. Many places have formed special customs such as burning incense, planting Mid-Autumn trees, lighting tower lanterns, putting sky lanterns, walking on the moon and dancing dragons. Until now, the Mid-Autumn Festival has continued the ancient traditional customs.
As a traditional festival in China, we should protect it and let the traditional culture of China pass on!
Mid-Autumn Festival Custom Composition 3 At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the Han people planned to rise up against the Mongolian rule, but they could not deliver the news. Later, Liu Bowen came up with a plan and spread rumors everywhere, saying that there was a winter plague epidemic, which could be avoided unless every household bought moon cakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival. People bought moon cakes and went home, only to find that there was a note hidden inside, which read: "Kill Tartars on Mid-Autumn Festival night and welcome the rebels!" " "So many people rebelled against the rulers, so the custom of eating moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival stayed.
People in Wuxi usually eat braised rose sugar taro on the morning of Mid-Autumn Festival, which is said to be related to this. According to legend, after Mongolia destroyed the Song Dynasty, the ethnic oppression was deep, and the Han people always wanted to resist. One year, everyone agreed to work together on Mid-Autumn Festival night. In order to get tired of winning, people want to eat braised taro, which symbolizes that the head of "Tatar" fell to the ground. This is the origin of eating sugar taro in Mid-Autumn Festival.
This legend changed in Chaoshan: at that time, the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty stipulated that every trendy family should live in a Mongolian soldier, with the support of the Han people, to monitor the actions of the Han people, and only three families were allowed to use a kitchen knife. The people hated this, so they took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to eat moon cakes and stuffed the letter of appointment into the stuffing of moon cakes. Chaozhou people's taro is homophonic with "tiger head" and looks like a human head, so every Mid-Autumn Festival, it is passed down from generation to generation, and it still exists today.
There is a custom of eating taro in Mid-Autumn Festival all over Guangdong, which is said to commemorate the historical story of Tartars being killed at the end of Yuan Dynasty. After killing the Tatars in the Mid-Autumn Festival, they gave their heads to the moon, and later they were replaced by taro. Until now, when Cantonese peel taro, it is also called "peeling ghost skin".
The Mid-Autumn Festival custom constitutes Qingdao Mid-Autumn Festival custom, such as offering sacrifices to the moon and burning incense. At the time of the monthly sacrifice, when the moon rises, an open-air case is filed for sacrifice.
It also provides moon cakes, melons and fruits, edamame, taro, lotus root and other foods, and the Jade Rabbit Moon Palace is also painted with a pestle. In ancient times, the moon belonged to Yin. In Yue Bai, women worship first, and men worship later. Some people say that "men are not Yue Bai". After Yue Bai, the family had a reunion dinner and a monthly meal. When a woman goes back to her mother's house to stay temporarily, she must go back to her husband's house on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, because this is because of the reunion festival. On the Mid-Autumn Festival night, people in Qingdao call it "walking on the moon". A night outing with women is called "stepping on the moon". Lujiashi Bridge outside Xiaodongmen, Qingdao, the reflection of the bright moon rippling in the water under the bridge forms a wonderful contrast with the bright moon in the sky. Therefore, tourists are weaving in the Mid-Autumn Festival night, scrambling to watch. This "Liang Shi jathyapple" is very famous in Qingdao, and it is called one of the "Eight Scenes of Shanghai".
Qingdao folk also have the custom of burning incense and hat. The so-called fragrant barrel, also called fragrant barrel, is made by a shop that binds and binds paper. It is square, big and small, and the big one is about two feet wide in a week. Candles are wrapped in tulle silk, painted with pictures of pavilions and pavilions of the Moon Palace, and some of them are woven with thread incense, and decorated with paper-bound Longmen Kuixing and colorful flags. The scene of burning incense and closing the doors in Qingdao Mid-Autumn Festival is the most prosperous in Nanyuan. In addition, the piers of many bridges inside and outside the city are lit with special large incense barrels.
Mid-Autumn Festival Custom Composition 5 Leisure Qin Zaisi's Notes on Luo Zhong says that Tang Xizong eats moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is very delicious. When he heard that the newcomer Qujiang held a wedding banquet, he ordered the chef to wrap moon cakes for the newcomer in HongLing. This is the earliest record of moon cakes we can see. In the Song Dynasty, moon cakes were called lotus leaves, golden flowers, hibiscus flowers and so on, and their making methods were more clear.
Su Dongpo, a poet, said in a poem that cakes are like chewing the moon, and there is crisp in the crisp. Crisp is crisp, cake is sugar, and it tastes sweet, crisp, fragrant and beautiful. After the Song Dynasty, making moon cakes not only pays attention to the taste, but also designs various patterns related to the legend of the Moon Palace on the cake surface. At first, the pattern on the surface of the cake was probably drawn on paper and then pasted on the surface of the cake. Later, I simply pressed the dough mold on the moon cake. The moon cake in the shape of a full moon symbolizes a happy reunion, just like the full moon on the 15th National Day. People regard it as holiday food, and use it to worship the moon and give it to relatives and friends. This is undoubtedly a reflection of the national psychology of the Han nationality.
Legend has it that in the early years of the Yuan Dynasty, the rulers of Yuan and Mongolia were afraid that the people would rise up and rebel, and adopted a high-pressure policy of sending one soldier to monitor every ten households, allowing only ten households to use kitchen knives. The people couldn't bear it, so they took the opportunity of exchanging moon cakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15th to put a wax pill in the moon cake, write an oath on the paper, and use a piece of paper at the bottom of the cake as a reminder to call on each other to fight for the rejuvenation of Mongolia. Wenzhou, Zhejiang province calls this kind of moon cake Sanjin, which means "kill tight" according to the homonym of the local dialect.
This is probably the reason why a piece of paper is often attached to moon cakes today.
Mid-Autumn Festival custom composition 6 Mid-Autumn Festival, every time this festival, we can enjoy the moon with our families. Mid-Autumn Festival is a season of reunion, and the moonlight is beautiful. The bright moonlight is scattered on the ground like thick frost, and the moon is the sustenance for the memories of relatives. Many ancient poets used the moon to express their inner thoughts. "I hope that people will live for a long time and have a good scenery for thousands of miles." It was Su Shi who used the moon to express his inner feelings. "Looking up, I found it was moonlight, sinking again, and I suddenly thought of home." Li Bai used it to express his inner sadness.
In August 15, every household is busy, and the children put on new clothes with joy. On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone will put tables and chairs, moon cakes, fruits and other snacks in the yard, and the whole family will sit in the yard and enjoy the moon.
Laugh together, watch the gorgeous moon together and eat snacks together. But during the Mid-Autumn Festival, "moon cakes" are indispensable. There are many kinds of moon cakes, and there are many styles and tastes. Moon cakes are round, square and flower-shaped. Taste includes fruit, bean paste, egg yolk, taro, etc ... Everyone has his own taste, such as me, I love bean paste and egg yolk, and taro is my favorite!
Egg yolk moon cakes are delicious, greasy and soft. Bean paste moon cakes seem to contain brown sugar. Most people don't like it because it is too sweet and greasy. I prefer sweets. Taro moon cakes are delicious. My favorite food since childhood is taro-flavored snacks.
People prefer to eat moon cakes with fruit in them, but I don't like the taste the least, because moon cakes with fruit in them are either too soft or not delicious, and they will spit out after eating. Everyone has his own taste! What I am looking forward to most is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so that I can eat my most delicious moon cakes and enjoy the moon with my family.
This is the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival.
According to historians' research, the custom of appreciating the moon in Mid-Autumn Festival originated from ancient court scholars and later spread among the people. As early as the Wei and Jin Yuefu's Forty Poems of Midnight, there was a poem "There is a bright moon in autumn" saying: "Look up at the bright moon and send your feelings for thousands of miles." In the Tang Dynasty, it was quite popular to enjoy and play with the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Many poets wrote poems about the moon in their masterpieces, and the Mid-Autumn Festival began to become a fixed festival. The Book of Emperor Taizong recorded the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15. Legend has it that Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty sleepwalked in the Moon Palace and got colorful feather clothes, and the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival began to prevail among the people.
In the Northern Song Dynasty, August 15th was officially designated as the Mid-Autumn Festival, and seasonal foods such as "small cakes are like chewing the moon, with crisp and stuffing inside" appeared. Meng Yuanlao's Dream of Tokyo said: "On the Mid-Autumn Festival night, your home decorates the terrace, and people compete for restaurants to play the moon"; And "string full of enthusiasm, close to the residents. At night, it is like a cloud. Children in the room, even the wedding drama at night; As for the night market, as for familiarity. " Wu Meng said, "At this moment, golden phoenix is refreshing, the jade dew is cool, the sweet-scented osmanthus is fragrant, and the silver toad is full of light. The son of Taizi, a rich man with a huge room, climbs dangerous buildings all the time, plays the moon in the porch, or opens a wide pavilion, puts on a big banquet and sings loudly with harps to predict the joy of the evening. Even in a cushioned house, you can board a small platform, arrange family dinners, gather around your children and reward festivals.
Although the poor in the backcountry knew how to drink at the farmers' market, he reluctantly welcomed the joy and refused to waste it. That night, I sold and bought in the street until the fifth drum, played with tourists on the moon, and my mother-in-law was in the market until it burned endlessly. More interestingly, the newly compiled "Tales of the Drunken Man" describes the custom: "Children of the whole family, regardless of wealth, can go to the twelfth or thirteenth by themselves, all decorated with the eyes of adults, burning incense in the building or atrium, each with its own direction; Men are willing to go to themoon early and climb the fairy laurel. ..... Women want to look like Chang 'e and be as round as the bright moon. "
