Noodles de story
In addition to the cultural differences between North and South, there are actually different meanings or unique stories behind many Chinese noodles.
China traditional noodles-longevity noodles. People in China must eat food at the end of every birthday party, because noodles are very long, which means longevity. In ancient times, eating longevity noodles symbolizes wishing the newborn baby boy a long life, which has been handed down from generation to generation. When eating noodles, you should swallow the whole noodle in one gulp, and you can't pinch it off with chopsticks or bite it off with your mouth. Eating longevity noodles not only symbolizes longevity, but also represents respect for the elderly. It is said that the Yellow Emperor became immortal on the solstice of winter. Since then, longevity noodles have been eaten every winter to show respect for the elderly, so longevity noodles are also called "winter to sun noodles" In fact, there are different opinions about the meaning of "longevity noodles", and the above is just one of them.
The noodles you eat on your birthday will also be called "Shoumian". Noodles are the most famous in Fuzhou, with many names: the "meeting gift" given to the woman at the time of marriage is called "happy noodles"; Pregnant women eat "good noodles" during childbirth; It is "peaceful" to give gifts to relatives and friends with noodles; If the elderly, the sick and the disabled eat healthy food, this kind of noodles will be called "healthy noodles". There is a kind of noodle thread among the people, which is a gift prepared by Xuan Nv for his mother's nine-day birthday. Therefore, the God of Xuan Nv for nine days is dedicated to noodle makers. There are many kinds of noodles in Fuzhou, such as egg noodles, Longxu Noodles noodles and silver noodles. (Quoted from the story of China's famous food)
Another example is the aforementioned "cold scouring", which was originally created by Wu Zetian, the only female emperor in China today. It is said that Wu Meiniang was very beautiful when he was young. At the age of fourteen, he was chosen as a talented person in the palace. Because they want to be separated from Chang Jianfeng, their childhood friends, they went to a noodle restaurant to eat noodles before entering the palace. Seeing that the weather was very hot that day, Mei Niang had a brainwave and developed a soft and delicious "cold salad" with his boss. I happened to meet Mei Niang's birthday. In order to miss the scene of that year, I ordered the chef to cook cold dishes every time Wu Zetian's birthday. This habit has not changed until my death.

There is another story in Qishan, Shaanxi Province, which is also called "Harmonious Face". During the Western Zhou Dynasty, Yin's jealousy and Ji Chang's achievements imprisoned him in a castle in Youli. Later, when Zhou Wenwang returned to his hometown, the villagers saw that he was emaciated by suffering, and they all brought a lot of food to supplement him. To thank everyone for their love, Zhou Wenwang cooked noodles and greeted them with the food they brought. After eating face to face, everyone will pour out the remaining soup and then go deep into the noodles. This way of eating noodles instead of soup is called "harmonious noodles" (quoted from the famous food story)
