2. The origin of eating sugar cakes during the Dragon Boat Festival: There is a custom in some areas that on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, a married girl brings a lot of sugar cakes back to her parents' home to give away sugar cakes. Because in Henan, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, when the official wheat harvest is completed, in order to celebrate the harvest, every household eats candy cakes on this day to welcome the harvest.
