With the development of literature and art, in recent years, a movie named Love of Hawthorn Tree has been sought after and loved by people, and hawthorn has become synonymous with pure love.
The Legend of Hawthorn Once upon a time, in Shandong Province, there was a camel mountain with a beautiful girl-pomegranate at the foot. Pomegranate fell in love with a young man named Bai Jing, and they fell in love, and their feelings were profound. However, the beauty of pomegranate alarmed the emperor, who sent someone to take it away and forced her to be his concubine. But pomegranate would rather die than follow, so she lied to the emperor that she would be filial to her mother for one hundred days. The emperor had to find a quiet yard for her to live in.
After the pomegranate was robbed, Bai Jing chased it to Nanshan, where he stood guard and finally became a small tree. Pomegranate later escaped from the palace and fled to Nanshan. Her heart ached at the sight of the incarnation of Bai Jing. The sad pomegranate has also turned into a tree and produced red fruit, so people call it pomegranate. But the emperor cut down the tree and ordered it not to be called pomegranate, but mountain slag, which means mountain slag. But people like strong pomegranate, so they call her hawthorn.
Legend 2 This legend is actually about candied haws.
It is said that during the reign of Shao Xi in the Southern Song Dynasty, Song Guangzong's favorite princess suffered from a strange disease, with a sallow face and emaciated body, and did not like to eat. The doctor used many expensive drugs, but it didn't work. The imperial concubine became more and more ill every day, and the emperor was helpless, so he made a list of the royal families. A charlatan revealed the list. It seems that after the imperial concubine fell ill, she said that she would eat 5- 10 pieces of soup and brown sugar before meals, and it would be fine in half a month. The imperial concubine really recovered later.
The emperor was very happy and cooked delicious food according to this method. Later, this method spread to the people and became a sugar-coated gourd.
