1, crossing the bridge rice noodles originally originated in Mengzi county in southern Yunnan. According to legend, there is a South Lake outside the city (it still exists). The lake is clear as blue, with weeping willows lining it. There is an island in the middle of the lake. There are not only pavilions on the island, but also bamboo forests, towering old trees, beautiful scenery and fresh and pleasant air. It is a good place for students nearby to learn poetry. A scholar went to an island in the middle of the lake to prepare for the exam, but because he worked too hard, he often forgot to eat the food sent by his wife, and it was often cold when he ate it. Because of irregular diet, my body is getting thinner and thinner over time, and my wife is very distressed. Once, my wife killed a fat hen, cooked it in a casserole, sent it, and put it in rice noodles and other seasonings that local people like. It is not only delicious, but also hot for a long time. Scholars like eating very much, and virtuous wives often send them here according to this. Later, I became the number one scholar and never forgot my wife's kindness. I joked that I had eaten chicken soup rice noodles sent by my wife before I was admitted.

2. Because his wife sent rice noodles to the island through a winding bridge, the scholar called this rice noodle "crossing the bridge", which was a beautiful talk for a while. People imitate the method of scholar's wife to make rice noodles, and cross-bridge rice noodles have spread since then. After the processing and improvement of later generations, the rice noodle crossing the bridge is getting better and better, and it spreads farther and farther.
