Waking up from a sweet sleep, I stretched my body and thought that today was the Dragon Boat Festival. I jumped up from the bed excitedly and rushed to the kitchen to look for my mother."Mom, today is the Dragon Boat Festival. I'm going to eat zongzi!" As soon as I entered the kitchen, I shouted. Only to see Mom, as if by magic, "conjured" out a string of plump and big zongzi from the bag. The zongzi gave off a rich and inviting aroma, making my mouth water. I couldn't wait to grab one to satisfy my craving.
Mom is like a little roundworm in my stomach, pointing at my little nose and saying, "Little glutton, I'll get some for you right now." Mother used scissors to cut the rope tied around the zongzi and peeled off the two layers of bamboo leaves wrapped around it. The zongzi turned over like a diver and landed in the bowl that Mom had prepared long ago. A zongzi with a perfect combination of color, aroma and taste was presented before my eyes. It was black and red, decorated with black mushrooms, white and red meat, white eggs and grains of glutinous rice, just like tiny pearls. These glutinous rice sticks to each other, just like seven brothers.
I ate like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, without a second thought, in big mouthfuls. In no time, I had swept up all the zongzi.
I still felt not satisfied and wanted to have another one. So I said to my mom, "Mom, another zongzi, please." Mom looked at me and suddenly burst into laughter, laughing so hard that even tears streamed down her face. I saw mom laughing so hard that she was completely at a loss. I ran to the mirror and took a look. Oh, I was like a clown in a circus, with a big flowered face. Even eyebrows cannot "escape unscathed". I quickly washed my face clean with a towel.
I returned to the table again and ate the second zongzi with great relish.
This Dragon Boat Festival was really interesting!

Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, which is the Dragon Boat Festival. Now, let me tell you how my family celebrates the Dragon Boat Festival.On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year, every household will hang mugwort leaves, race dragon boats, eat zongzi, drink realgar wine and have a tour of various diseases. This custom has evolved over more than 2,000 years. The reason why the fifth day of the fifth lunar month is regarded as the Dragon Boat Festival is that Qu Yuan jumped into the Miluo River and died on that day. The custom of dragon boat racing also evolved from the form where people rowed small boats to search for Qu Yuan. As they couldn't find Qu Yuan's body, they scattered the rice in the bamboo tube into the water. They think that when the fish are full, they won't eat Qu Yuan's body. Later, this activity continued to evolve and has now become zongzi. This kind of activity to commemorate Qu Yuan gradually turned into a custom.
This year's Dragon Boat Festival, our family hung mugwort leaves and wrapped zongzi. Looking forward to the arrival of the Dragon Boat Festival, ah! The Dragon Boat Festival has finally arrived! Our family served plates of delicious dishes and brought out the zongzi. What should be done next? Of course, let's start eating! One for you and one for me... Everyone was eating happily.
The Dragon Boat Festival in my family is like this. How about yours?

Today is the Dragon Boat Festival and it's also my grandpa's birthday. My sister and I got up early and carefully made a beautiful birthday card together. My sister also put the magic tools she usually uses into her schoolbag.At noon, I arrived at my grandpa's home. He had prepared a sumptuous feast of wine and dishes. My uncle bought a two-layered birthday cake. That birthday cake was even more beautiful than the one we drew. Uncle put the birthday cake on the table in the living room. I lit the candles. My sister lit them with a lighter. My cousin Lele turned off the lights and took out the accordion he had brought. We sang "Happy Birthday" together. After singing, Grandpa made a wish and blew out the candles. Suddenly, all the lights in the room came on. We danced and clapped at the same time, making the adults laugh.
Grandma shouted in the dining room, "Come here quickly and have dinner!" We ran back into the dining room and sat around the table. Before the adults raised their glasses to offer their congratulations, my sister and I took out the birthday present we had prepared and handed it to Grandpa. We recited together, "Happy birthday, Grandpa. May your life be as long as the mountains and your blessings as vast as the sea." Grandpa looked at the birthday card we drew and said, "Such a beautiful birthday cake and colorful candles. This birthday present is wonderful."
The meal was very sumptuous, including fish, chicken, hot pot and dishes whose names I couldn't name. We kids ate for quite a while. Seeing no shortage of vegetables, we were already very full, so we ran upstairs to play.
When we were resting in the living room in the afternoon, my elder sister began to perform magic tricks. Our whole family gathered around to watch. We saw her skillfully place two coins on the table, arrange two x cards on top of them, then push the outer coin outward to cover it with the second x card, push it inward once more, and slowly blow a breath to flip over the x cards. The coins from the first card also came under the second card. The adults were all puzzled and praised the elder sister for being really good.
How time flies! It's time for us to go home. We had a really good time today.

Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month and also the traditional Dragon Boat Festival. This festival is celebrated in memory of Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan was a minister of King Huai of Chu during the Spring and Autumn period. He couldn't bear to see his homeland invaded and died on May 5th by throwing a stone into the Miluo River. The people of Chu were extremely mournful and rushed to the Miluo River to pay tribute to Qu Yuan. A fisherman took out Rice and vegetable roll, eggs and other food prepared for Qu Yuan and threw them into the river "plop, plop", saying that if the fish, dragons, shrimps and crabs were full, they would not bite Qu's body. Later, fearing that Rice and vegetable roll would be eaten by Jiaolong, people came up with the idea of wrapping rice with neem leaves, wrapped with colored silk, and gradually developed into Zongzi. In addition, during the Dragon Boat Festival, there is a custom of dragon boat racing in the south.In the morning, I saw my mother insert a green plant upside down on the door. My mother said it was called mugwort, which is used to ward off evil and drive away malaria, and it is also a custom. At lunch, my mother put several plates of Zongzi, including nuts, dates, bean paste, and so on, emitting a strong fragrance. I took one, gently peeled off the leaves, and gradually revealed a smooth and shiny glutinous rice Zongzi inside. I took a bite of it, sweet and fragrant. When I ate it in my mouth, it was sticky and delicious.
My grandma also bought me a sachet and hung it around my neck. She said it has a mosquito repellent effect. I didn't expect these folk customs to really have their purpose!
What a happy Dragon Boat Festival!

On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the long-awaited Dragon Boat Festival arrived. According to the teacher, there is a legend about the Dragon Boat Festival. It is said that on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the patriotic poet Qu Yuan jumped into the river and committed suicide. To prevent the fish from eating Qu Yuan's body, people wrapped many zongzi and put them in the water, allowing the fish to eat the delicious zongzi and thus protecting Qu Yuan's body.In the morning, as soon as I got up, I smelled a pleasant fragrance. I walked to the kitchen and saw that it was my mother making zongzi. I imitated my mother and started wrapping zongzi. I took two bamboo leaves, folded them up to make a nest, put some glutinous rice in it, then added a big spoonful of meat, and covered it with glutinous rice. Just as I was about to tie the rope, the glutinous rice jumped out like a naughty child. My mother said, "Don't put too much glutinous rice in it, and make sure to wrap it tightly." I followed my mother's words and poured out some glutinous rice. Sure enough, the glutinous rice didn't show up. We reached the last level - tying the rope. I randomly tied a section. When I put the zongzi into the bowl, I accidentally pulled the string again. Now it was great. I had to wrap it all over again. I kept doing this for a long time and finally finished wrapping one zongzi. After two days, my mother put the zongzi in and told me to cook them over high heat for an hour. Then she turned the high heat down to low and cooked them for half an hour. After one and a half hours, the fragrant zongzi were finally ready. I couldn't wait to take a zongzi, untie the string and have a taste. Wow! The zongzi I wrapped are really delicious! After eating zongzi, my mother and I turned on the TV and we watched the dragon boat race.
Four dragon boats appeared on the screen, namely the red, yellow, blue and green teams. With a command given, all the dragon boats rushed out. There was a person on the dragon head, beating the drum to cheer him on. Behind him, eight team members were rowing with all their might. Each of them was full of strength and unwilling to fall behind. They looked extremely impressive! Later, the dragon boat team representing our county won.
Today, not only did I learn the skill of making zongzi from my mother, but I also watched a wonderful dragon boat race. What a pleasant unforgettable day!

The numerous alternative names for the Dragon Boat Festival indirectly indicate the divergence in the origin of its customs. This is exactly the case. Regarding the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, there are at least four or five theories up to now, such as the theory of commemorating Qu Yuan; The theory of totem worship of the Wu and Yue ethnic groups It originated from the theory of the Summer Solstice Festival in the Three Dynasties. The theory of warding off evil months and evil days, etc. So far, the widely influential view on the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is the theory in memory of Qu Yuan. In the field of folk culture, the Chinese people associate the dragon boat races and eating zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival with Qu Yuan. Legend has it that after Qu Yuan threw himself into the river, the local people injured him to death and then rowed boats to rescue him with all their might. Due to the custom of racing, It is also said that people often put food into water to offer sacrifices to Qu Yuan, but most of it was eaten by dragons. Later, upon Qu Yuan's hint, they wrapped the rice in neem leaves and wrapped it with colorful threads to make the later zongzi shape.The customs of the Dragon Boat Festival mainly include: eating zongzi, inserting mugwort or calamus on the door to ward off evil spirits, tying longevity threads, drinking realgar wine or using it for disinfection, and dragon boat racing, etc. Eating zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival was already very popular in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Zongzi is also a kind of gift exchanged during festivals. By the Tang and Song dynasties, zongzi had become extremely famous and were often sold in the market. Nowadays, when we celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, we still can't avoid eating a few zongzi. The small zongzi seems to have become a symbol of traditional Chinese culture and holds a certain place in people's hearts.
The zongzi made in our hometown is the famous Ding 'an zongzi in Hainan. The zongzi is filled with salted egg yolks and meat, and it tastes very fragrant. Grandma is an expert at making zongzi. Every festival, she makes zongzi for us. But this time, because Mom was too busy, Grandma didn't go back to her hometown to make zongzi. These days, grandma has prepared a lot of leaves and is going to wrap many zongzi to give to her friends. She hopes that when they receive them, someone will say "Wow".
Although today is a festival, we should have gone to soak in the "Dragon Water", but my mother said, "Today is a festival. Let's not join in the fun." Therefore, I still did my homework and took dance classes at home as usual. I think today is both a lively day and an ordinary day.

The Dragon Boat Festival is an ancient traditional festival that originated in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods and has a history of more than two thousand years. The Dragon Boat Festival originated from the story of Qu Yuan: Qu Yuan advocated promoting the selection of virtuous and capable individuals, enriching the country and strengthening the military, and strongly advocated allying with Qi to resist Qin. However, he was strongly opposed by nobles such as Zi LAN. As a result, Qu Yuan was defiled and dismissed from his post, driven out of the capital, and exiled to the Yuan and Xiang river basins. In 200 BC, the Qin army captured the capital of the State of Chu. Qu Yuan, seeing his motherland being invaded, felt as if his heart was being torn apart. However, he could never bear to abandon his country. On May 5th, after writing his last work, "Huai Sha", he threw himself into the Miluo River with a stone in his arms and died, composing a magnificent patriotic symphony with his own life. It is said that after Qu Yuan's death, the people of the State of Chu were extremely grief-stricken and flocked to the Miluo River to pay their respects to him. The fishermen rowed boats and searched for his true form back and forth on the river. A fisherman took out the rice balls, eggs and other food he had prepared for Qu Yuan and threw them into the river with a "plop, plop" sound, saying that if the fish, lobsters and crabs were full, they wouldn't bite Doctor Qu's body. People followed suit one after another when they saw it. An old doctor then brought a jar of realgar wine and poured it into the river, saying that he wanted to use the medicine to stun the dragon and water beasts to avoid harming Doctor Qu. Later, to prevent the rice balls from being eaten by dragons, people came up with the idea of wrapping rice in neem leaves and wrapping it with colorful threads, which developed into zongzi. Since then, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year, there have been customs such as dragon boat races, eating zongzi and drinking realgar wine to commemorate the patriotic poet Qu Yuan.Eating zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional custom. Every fifth day of the fifth lunar month, my mother makes a lot of zongzi to satisfy our appetite. The zongzi wrapped by my mother are particularly fragrant. As soon as they are served on the table, a rich aroma wafts into the air. My father, my elder brother and I will eat them up in a hurry and won't stop until we are full.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, children wear sachets. It is said that this is believed to ward off evil spirits and diseases, but in fact, it is used to decorate the lapel. The sachet contains cinnabar, realgar and medicinal herbs, and is wrapped with silk cloth, giving off a refreshing fragrance. It is then strung with five-colored silk threads into various shapes and strung together in a string, presenting a diverse and charming appearance.
Wearing a sachet and enjoying the fragrant zongzi with relish, I couldn't have been happier during the Dragon Boat Festival. Nowadays, the Dragon Boat Festival has been designated as a legal holiday by the state. We hope that the folk customs and traditions of our country will be passed down from generation to generation!

There are numerous traditional festivals in China, such as New Year's Day, Qingming Festival, Mother's Day, Labor Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Children's Day and other festivals. Among them, my favorite is the Dragon Boat Festival because I have a happy time during it.Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, which is the Dragon Boat Festival. My father said, "During the Warring States Period, there was a patriotic man named Qu Yuan." Qu Yuan was the first great patriotic poet in literature. Qu Yuan repeatedly advised King Huai of Chu to ally with Qi to resist Qin, but the incompetent and foolish King Huai of Chu believed the villains, which led to the downfall of his country and his family. Qu Yuan, upon hearing that his country was about to fall, threw himself into the old Luojiang River with a stone in his arms and committed suicide.
Upon hearing the news, the local people immediately rowed boats to rescue Qu Yuan and sailed straight to Dongting Lake. Eventually, they did not find Qu Yuan's body. To prevent the fish from eating Qu Yuan's body, every household made zongzi and then threw them into the old Luojiang River to feed the fish, so that they could not eat Qu Yuan's body. The Dragon Boat Festival has thus been passed down gradually. During the Dragon Boat Festival, people also hold dragon boat races, wear colorful ribbons and hang sachets to commemorate Qu Yuan. After my father finished speaking, I nodded, half-understanding.
"Come here quickly! Let's make zongzi!" The mother shouted. We hurriedly ran out. I took two bamboo leaves and tried to wrap them like my mother did, but no matter how I wrapped them, they didn't look like what my mother did at all. Instead, the glutinous rice spilled all over the floor. I angrily threw the bamboo leaves on the ground. Mother said, "You can't run away halfway through doing something. Take it slow. First, wrap the bamboo leaves into a triangular shape, and then put the glutinous rice in."
I did as my mother said and made the first zongzi. I was very happy and said, "I can make zongzi now." Later, I made several in a row. At this moment, my mother, as she spoke, said, "In our hometown, during the Dragon Boat Festival, there are customs such as planting mugwort, leaf calamus, dragon boat racing, and drinking realgar wine." After wrapping the zongzi, we started cooking. After more than half an hour, the zongzi were cooked. My mother then gave them to me to eat. Wow! It smells so good and tastes so delicious. These are the zongzi we made. They are neither greasy nor greasy. A few minutes passed and we finished the hanging of zongzi.
Wow! Today passed so quickly. I learned a lot of knowledge and also got to know many folk customs, which made me feel very happy and joyful to have spent this Dragon Boat Festival.

This Monday, the teacher taught us to make zongzi and told us many legends about the Dragon Boat Festival.On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the patriotic poet Qu Yuan jumped into the Miluo River. When the local residents heard about this, they threw cooked rice balls, duck eggs and chicken eggs into the Miluo River to prevent fish, shrimp, dragons and crabs from damaging Qu Yuan's body. Later, every fifth day of the fifth lunar month, people commemorated Qu Yuan by making zongzi. This custom was passed down from generation to generation and eventually formed one of the four major traditional festivals in China - the May Festival.
The teacher also said that it is said that children born on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month cannot be raised because this day is an "evil day". If raised, girls kill their mothers and boys kill their fathers. On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, it is not allowed to build a house. If a house is built, the whole family will go bald. Still unable to be promoted or become rich...
In ancient times, due to the underdeveloped technology, the ancients believed that on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, the five poisons such as scorpions, venomous snakes and centipedes would come out to harm people. There are also some demons and monsters that come to the human world to haunt and harm humans, and these things are afraid of realgar wine, mugwort, calamus, etc. So, on that day, every household drank realgar wine and hung mugwort leaves, calamus and the like at the door to drive away demons and monsters.
In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival has more than twenty names: Duanwu Festival, Duanyang Festival, Chongwu Festival, Chongwu Festival, Daughter Festival, etc. The four major traditional festivals in China are: the Spring Festival, the Qingming Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival...
After learning about these traditional customs, we began to make zongzi. The materials included: glutinous rice, bamboo leaves and the string used to tie the zongzi.
Teacher Chen first took a bamboo leaf, then rolled the round end of the leaf inward, and it turned into the shape of an hourglass. He then filled it with glutinous rice. After filling it up, flatten the rice and then cover the funnel surface with the remaining bamboo leaves. Then, tie a knot tightly with a rope, and a beautiful zongzi was born.
After the teacher finished the demonstration, I was eager to have a try. Pick up a bamboo leaf and, like the teacher, roll the round end inward. It also forms the shape of an hourglass, but it is much larger than the teacher's. Then, I also filled the rice and smoothed it out like the teacher. I tried to cover it with the remaining bamboo leaves, but it just wouldn't work. So, I carefully recalled how the teacher did it and found that my "hourglass" was much larger than the teacher's. I then poured the rice into the basin and did it again. Just like this, I did it many times but still failed to wrap it up. Either it couldn't be tied properly or it fell apart when I tried to tie it. After that, just before school was over, I asked Teacher Chen to help me make a zongzi. I was extremely happy and showed off zongzi everywhere in the classroom...
This class is truly extraordinary! It not only taught us how to make zongzi, but also enabled us to learn a lot about the Dragon Boat Festival. It's really a win-win situation!

Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. The annual Dragon Boat Festival has arrived. Our whole family went to Lai Tak Chung together to watch the dragon boat race.Even before reaching there, from a few buildings, one could hear the deafening sounds of gongs and drums, the crackling of firecrackers and the bustling crowd. We finally found a spot to park the car at Yongtou. I hurriedly ran towards the riverbank. Although it was under the scorching sun, I didn't feel hot at all. Wow, it was such a sea of people! I tried my best to squeeze in, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get in. Instead, I was pushed around by others. With no other choice, I stood on a stone stool by the river. Wow, I finally saw several long, colorful and beautiful dragon boats. Colorful flags were flying on them, the village flag was prominent, and a hundred OARS were rowing in unison, moving at a fast speed. It was extremely spectacular. At this moment, an old dragon boat came over. Its head was very imposing and it could be seen that it must have been around for quite a few years. At this moment, an old grandma beside said, "This is the old boat of our village. It's been nearly a hundred years. We had this boat when we were kids!" It's still intact now. What a great wealth! I heard that and was extremely envious! At this moment, a small dragon boat led by about twenty people welcomed an old one from another village. As soon as it entered the entrance, more firecrackers and more drumbeats rang out immediately, almost deafening my ears. This old dragon boat from another village is so long. I counted it and found that there were over sixty people rowing it. The dragon head was still as old as ever, but there were two big drums. The two drummers were beating, twisting and Shouting, their movements were funny and ridiculous. The other sixty people rowing followed their rhythm, Shouting and waving their OARS in unison. In just a few seconds, it had already passed before my eyes. It was too fast! At this moment, I saw the high and upturned tail of the dragon, swaying up and down regularly with the sound of the call, like a ball of colorful flames! Looking at the distant dragon boat, I was deeply impressed by this traditional Chinese cultural element and couldn't help but feel moved!
At this time, many dragon boats from other villages were gradually welcomed into the river. Looking at their beautiful figures and listening to their enthusiastic cries, I couldn't come to my senses for a long time... This was a meaningful Dragon Boat Festival for me. It allowed me to experience the authentic dragon boat culture of Guangzhou and understand the importance of protecting traditional culture.

On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, which is the Dragon Boat Festival, people stick mugwort in the door, filling the hall with fragrance. They eat zongzi and sprinkle white sugar on them. Today is the annual Dragon Boat Festival. My mother and I participated in the "Parent-Child Zongzi Wrapping" activity jointly held by Meizhou Daily and Meizhou Jinxiu International and the activity of making Father's Day cards. We had a happy Dragon Boat Festival.At nine o 'clock in the morning, the scorching sun made everyone sweat profusely. My mother and I arrived at Meizhou Jinxiu International Marketing Center. Oh, so many people! Many children have already started. I quickly grabbed my mother and rushed up.
I first ran to the table for making zongzi, picked up two bamboo leaves and got ready to make zongzi. Suddenly, an idea flashed through my mind: Ah, I still don't know how to wrap zongzi. Mother said shamefully that she couldn't either. At this moment, a big sister beside us noticed our embarrassment and asked me to learn from her. The big sister told me, "Little brother, first fold the two bamboo leaves, then make a small funnel, scoop in the glutinous rice, press it down firmly. The key is that the glutinous rice won't fall out." Ok. First, do these steps well, and then learn the following steps! Following the method taught by my elder sister, I folded the bamboo leaves. Hey? Why can't I get it? I tried several times, sweating profusely, but still couldn't get it. Humph! It's time for me to pull out my big move - call the big sister. But the big sister taught me several times, but I still couldn't. Seeing my flustered look, the big sister couldn't help laughing. Fortunately, my mother learned it and taught me step by step. "When two swords are combined, the world is invincible." I finally learned it. Later, my elder sister even taught me how to tie zongzi well. Although my appearance of zongzi was really not good, it was just the result of my own labor. So I still proudly showed it off to my mother for a long time.
The zongzi have been wrapped up. Next, I'm going to take part in the parent-child card-making activity. Just as I was about to make it, I found that there weren't enough materials on the table. The main reason is that there are too many people and most of the materials have been used up. My mother and I struggled with all our might to find a few materials. Humph! I can do it well with just this little material. After my efforts, the card was finally made. It looks quite nice. However, unfortunately, I only won the third prize in the subsequent awards.
When I got home, my grandma praised me for making good zongzi and my dad said I made good cards. I felt very happy in my heart.
Today, I not only made zongzi to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival well, but also made greeting cards to celebrate Father's Day well. It's really a win-win situation. This is really a happy Dragon Boat Festival!

There are many traditional festivals in China, such as the Spring Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Double Ninth Festival, the Lantern Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival. But the one I like to celebrate is the Dragon Boat Festival because we can eat zongzi on it. My mother said that if you want to eat them, you have to learn to wrap them yourself.Zongzi is my favorite food. It's sticky and sweet. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water. I couldn't resist and learned by myself. I bought bamboo leaves, glutinous rice and honey date eight-treasure porridge for my mother and let me learn to make zongzi by myself.
First, I rinsed and washed these things, then weighed them into a bowl and started wrapping them. I picked up a bamboo leaf and twisted it back and forth for a long time. Finally, I twisted it into a triangle. I was extremely happy. I picked up a spoon, put two spoons in it, put the rice in the bamboo leaf, and then cut the preserved dates in half, put them together and wrapped them with a string. I often played with the nano and it leaked everywhere. I didn't have a prenatal checkup. I was craving for another one. So I picked up a bamboo leaf, bent it into a triangle, put two spoons of eight-treasure porridge in it, and added a honey date. I folded that corner and wrapped it with a string, but it leaked again. This time, I folded it too hard, and the vertical line of the bamboo leaf cluster cracked, creating a small opening. The eight-treasure porridge scattered all over the ground again. I didn't give up. I continued wrapping and started following the original steps. After finishing this, I was very happy in my heart because there was no leakage. I found the trick and was secretly happy in my heart. When making zongzi, one needs to be calm and meticulous. Every corner should be wrapped well without missing a single one. I wrapped four, five, six... in the same way. When Lu Min's mother took a look, she was surprised and said, "Girl, did you wrap this?" This bag doesn't leak any rice. I said proudly, "This is what I wrapped." My mother kept praising me. I started to cook in the pot. I cooked for more than half an hour. After this half an hour, it felt like a whole day had passed. I really wanted to eat the zongzi I made myself. The zongzi were finally cooked. I couldn't wait to open one and taste it. It's so delicious, sticky and sweet. The ones I made myself are just so good. I kept praising.
I love the customs of my hometown, and I love eating the zongzi I make myself during festivals even more.

The fifth day of the first lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival. Every household is bustling with activity. Every Dragon Boat Festival, people eat zongzi, race dragon boats, drink realgar wine, hang mugwort, calamus, sachets and write the character "King" on their children's bodies. Why is that?It turns out that this is to commemorate the great patriotic poet Qu Yuan. In 278 BC, the Qin army captured the capital of the State of Chu. When Qu Yuan and a Chu official learned of the news, they were filled with grief and anger, their hearts torn apart. Later, they jumped into the river with a big stone in their arms. When the local people learned about this, they threw zongzi into it, hoping that the fish would not eat Qu Yuan but only the zongzi they threw. So the custom of eating zongzi came into being. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, the common people will race dragon boats. If they win, they will go ashore and throw zongzi into the river. Thus, the custom of dragon boat racing came into being. Then, what about hanging mugwort and calamus at the doorstep, hanging sachets and writing the character "King" on children? People hung mugwort, calamus and sachets at their doorways because in ancient times, there were no mosquito coils, toilet water or window screens. So people hung mugwort and calamus at their doorways. Hanging sachets on children could prevent mosquitoes and insects from biting them. Writing the character "王" on a child makes him the king among insects, and even insects cannot bite him. Drinking realgar wine is to prevent snakes from biting, and thus this custom has emerged again.
After that, Mr. Hu made zongzi for us. First, she took out the wrappers used for making zongzi and the rice soaked in boiling water, and wrapped them carefully. Grains of rice seeped out from the wrappers used for making zongzi. First, she wrapped the wrapper for making zongzi into a conical shape, put the grains of rice into the conical wrapper, then blocked the "opening" and wrapped it with thread. The zongzi was done. Mr. Hu's expression changed from happiness to frowning. Everything was very amusing.
Today was really interesting. I'm so happy!

There is a traditional saying that the Dragon Boat Festival is in memory of Qu Yuan. Some say it is in memory of Wu Zixu, while others say it is in memory of Cao E, a filial daughter of the Eastern Han Dynasty, who threw herself into the river to save her father and died... There are more and more diverse statements.The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival. The door is plugged with Ai... Singing this folk children's song, I entered the countryside and the Dragon Boat Festival.
I still remember when I was a child, my mother and I came to my grandma's house. We saw her holding a piece of flowered cloth in one hand and something like a spoon in the other, carrying some dandelions, wild chrysanthemums and many flowers and grasses whose names I couldn't name. Grandma scooped out a spoonful of flowers and plants and put them into the head of the flower cloth. Then she quickly wrapped the head of the flower cloth into triangles, squares, hexagons... And pass it to the aunt. Aunt threaded the needle. After sewing it up, she found two ropes. One was red and there was a ribbon underneath. The other one is colorful. Auntie wound a circle of colorful ropes and fixed the circle with a needle. Then she passed the red rope through the circle and tied a knot. A sachet was done. Before long, one sachet after another appeared before my mother and me. Wow! I want it! Yes! I reached out and was about to take the sachet, saying to my grandma, "Baby, baby, baby!" Grandma handed me a piece of flowered cloth and a wooden spoon. I put a spoonful into the piece of flowered cloth, then folded it into a triangle, and then threaded the needle. But when it was done, it looked like a skinny and dry person, which was simply incomparable to what grandma had done.
Mother continued, "Baby, come on!" Make another one! At that time, I understood the truth that "arrogant troops are bound to fail". I've grown up and won't be complacent over trivial matters. I believe that through my continuous efforts, each sachet will be made better and more perfect!

On the XTH of x month, I got up very early. When I walked to the kitchen, I saw my mother, grandma and dad all working hard, not knowing what they were doing.I got closer and took a look. It turned out they were making zongzi! It suddenly dawned on me that today is the Dragon Boat Festival! I washed my hands and squeezed between my mother and grandma. All I could see were some green reed leaves, yellow glutinous rice, red beans and bundles of thread. I asked my grandma how to make zongzi exactly. Grandma said in a gentle voice, "First, form a funnel shape with the reed leaves, put the glutinous rice in it, then hold it down and wrap it up, and finally tie it up with thread." Look, a zongzi is done! I watched my grandma's method and casually picked up two reed leaves to start wrapping. I finally managed to wrap the reed leaves into a funnel shape. I put the glutinous rice into the crumpled reed leaves.
Hey, why is the glutinous rice leaking out from below? I looked down and saw a very small hole at the bottom. I gently tightened the reed leaf a little, but fate had other plans and the leaf broke. "Alas!" I began to get impatient. My mother seemed to understand my thoughts and came over to me, saying, "Baby, don't lose heart. Just do it a few more times and you'll get it." Saying that, the mother picked up the leaves and wrapped them up. Look, the small and exquisite leaves in the mother's hands had turned into a big green zongzi. I was stunned. My mother could wrap zongzi so quickly. I secretly made up my mind: I must wrap this zongzi well!
After dozens of failures, I finally managed to wrap a decent zongzi. No matter how ugly it looked, I was still very relieved because it took me dozens of failures to wrap it.
Ah! What a wonderful Dragon Boat Festival this time!
