The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the most distinctive day in my hometown - the Dragon Boat Festival. Although the Dragon Boat Festival is a very popular and grand festival among the Chinese people, it has been celebrated in both southern and northern China. Customs of the Dragon Boat Festival. But I feel that the Dragon Boat Festival in the south is more interesting, more atmospheric, and better able to express the characteristics of the Dragon Boat Festival than the one in the north. The Dragon Boat Festival is a festival established to commemorate the great poet Qu Yuan. On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Every household of ours will make a kind of "Zhongshan reed dumpling": a round rod-shaped one as thick as an arm, tied with fresh bamboo leaves, with ingredients inside, and there are two flavors: salty rice dumplings and sweet rice dumplings. The sweet rice dumplings have lotus seeds. Rice dumplings, bean paste, chestnut paste, jujube paste: the salty ones are bacon, roast chicken, egg yolks, scallops, mushrooms, mung beans, barbecued pork and other ingredients. Put the wrapped rice dumplings into a pot and cook them. When the rice dumplings are cooked, You will smell the faint fragrance of bamboo leaves, the fragrance is overflowing, permeating the whole kitchen... Untie the vines and peel off the rice dumpling leaves. There is red meat in the sweet rice dumplings, and white meat in the salty rice dumplings. Steam is rising from the meat, exuding a unique steamed brown aroma. The two rice dumplings are placed together on a plate, with two shiny red and white gems on the piston. The glutinous rice is crystal clear under the light, exuding a tantalizing and rich glutinous rice aroma. It is Very helpful! As someone who loves sweets, what I love the most is the jujube-like sweet rice dumplings. During the Dragon Boat Festival, my family makes a lot of rice dumplings, and I always give a big bag to relatives and friends. Others also He gave us the rice dumplings he made at home as a thank you. Therefore, on the Dragon Boat Festival day, my family always had endless rice dumplings brought from my aunt and grandma’s house. After living in Shixi for a long time, I missed the Dragon Boat Festival. I looked at the hair machine in front of the post building. During the agitation, the thunder was flying, and the beast's head was flying. The snow was slightly. People were rushing through the protruding waves, and the birds were jumping over the waves to fly back. It was Long Gang who didn't believe it, and he really won the championship. This is the "Racing Poetry" written by Lu Zhao of the Tang Dynasty. ". It highlights the macro scene of the dragon boat race. However, in my hometown Guangzhou, there is also the custom of dragon boat racing, commonly known as "dragon boat racing". On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the village will organize a small "dragon boat racing" competition. All able-bodied men from every household are required to participate, while women sit aside and watch. There are five or six narrow, slender boats with a big dragon head in front, with more than ten people sitting together and paddling hard. Go forward and strive to be the first to reach the finish line. Although it is raining like needles and the people on the boat are soaked, it is hard to tell whether it is sweat or rain, but it does not matter at this critical moment. The competition is important... The men who have finished rowing the dragon boat will gather in the village's big ancestral hall at noon to have a sumptuous "dragon boat meal". However, the women in our village are not allowed to participate, so in the end, I don't know what kind of dishes there are, because I am a girl. The "dragon boat" in the village is too childish! Not satisfying at all for me. If you want to watch it, it will be live on TV, an authentic dragon boat race. On the vast river, more than 20 "traditional dragons" participated in the competition. The long dragon boat was filled with big muscular men. In the middle is the drummer, and the people in the front are shouting and cheering, with a powerful and domineering voice. Majestic, shocking... The drizzle is falling, and the river is gushing. Here, the man shows his bravery and strength, which is amazing! In the north, the custom of "dragon boat racing" is not common, because there are not as many rivers in the north as in the south, so only rice dumplings are eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival in the north, which is not as vigorous and lively as in the south. This is the uniqueness of the Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown. The Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown, how much joy and joy you gave me! The Dragon Boat Festival rice dumplings are fragrant, the dragon boats are clanging, good things come in pairs! The Dragon Boat Festival expresses authentic hometown feelings, an ancient tradition, and an admiration and praise for the patriotic spirit of the poet Qu Yuan. Eating authentic hometown rice dumplings and watching the wonderful hometown dragon boat race gave me a special feeling.
