Speaking of Laba Festival, everyone may be familiar with it. If we talk about the origin of Laba Festival, only a handful of people know it. This paper collects and sorts out the story of the origin of Laba porridge for everyone. Let's have a look!
It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang was poor when he was a child, and his parents sent him to a rich man's house to herd cattle. The rich man is mean to him. He was often beaten and did not have enough to eat.
One day, he came back from herding cattle and passed a wooden bridge. Unexpectedly, the old cow slipped, fell off the bridge and broke her leg. The old rich man was furious and put Zhu Yuanzhang in a room and refused to eat. He was so hungry that he wandered around the room looking for something to eat. Suddenly, he found a mouse hole in the room and opened it. I didn't expect it to be a granary for mice, with rice, beans and taro in it.
Later, when Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, he was tired of eating delicious food. One day, he suddenly remembered that when he was a child, he had eaten porridge cooked by five grains and beans dug in a mouse hole, so he asked the chef to make him a sweet porridge, and all kinds of five grains and beans were mixed together. The day he ate was the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, so it was called Laba porridge. Seeing that the emperor ate Laba porridge, the officials of the civil and military in the Qing Dynasty followed suit and gradually spread it to the people, becoming a custom. Nowadays, the custom of drinking Laba porridge has gradually lost its original intention, but it has become an interesting way to eat, because the cooking methods of porridge in various places are also varied, showing strong local characteristics.
Story 2 About the Origin of Laba Porridge Legend has it that before becoming a Buddha, Sakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism, traveled to the famous mountains of Sichuan in India in order to explore the true meaning of life, visit strange people, visit the elderly and practice hard. One day, he came to the countryside of Mojeto, hungry and thirsty, and fainted to the ground. Then a kind shepherdess saved him with her lunch. This lunch was mixed with glutinous rice and glutinous rice porridge, and some wild fruits were added. Mooney tastes sweet. It was on this day that Yingshi Muny became a Buddha. This day is the eighth day of December, December is the twelfth lunar month, and the eighth day of December is commonly known as Laba. Later, on this day, monks chanted sutras and cooked porridge for the Buddha with torreya grandis and fruits to commemorate the day when the Buddha became a Buddha, so this porridge for the Buddha, called Laba porridge, was popular for a long time and gradually spread to the people.
This statement is actually quite credible, because there are many records about Laba porridge in past dynasties:
MR. MONG: It is recorded in "A Dream of China in Tokyo" that "Buddhist baths were held in various temples in Japan, and seven treasures and five flavors of porridge were given to disciples, which was called Laba porridge."
Wu Dream Volume 6 December: "On the eighth day of this month, the temple name is Laba. There are five kinds of porridge in Dasha and other temples, which are called Laba porridge. "
On the eighth day, temples and people made porridge with walnuts, pine nuts, milk mushrooms, plums and chestnuts, which was called Laba porridge.
In Dunchong, Fu Cha, I enjoyed "Yanjing Year". Laba porridge is recorded in detail: "Laba porridge is cooked with yellow rice, white rice, Redmi, millet, water chestnut rice, chestnuts, red beans and peeled jujube paste. And dyed with red peach kernels, almonds, melon seeds, peanuts, pine nuts and white sugar, brown sugar and grapes for external use. "
These are all records about Laba porridge found in allusions.
The origin of Laba porridge story 3 In the early years, there was such a family of four, an old couple and two sons. The old couple are very diligent and do farm work all the year round. Plow in spring, hoe in summer, harvest in autumn, and work hard for one day. All kinds of food stored at home are large and small. There is also a big jujube tree in their yard. The dates carefully cultivated by the old couple are crisp and sweet. When they collect and sell, they can sell a lot of money, and they live a very rich life.
The old couple ran all their lives to get married to their two sons.
Seeing that his son is getting old day by day, he can marry, and the old couple are getting old and dying. After his father died, he told his brothers to plant crops well. When the old mother died, she told her brothers to take good care of the jujube trees in the yard and save money for a wife.
There are only two brothers left in a family of four. Seeing so much food, the younger brother said to his younger brother, "We have so much food, that's enough. Take a year off this year! " "
The younger brother said, "This jujube tree is not tight this year. Anyway, we don't lack dates to eat. "
In this way, the two brothers are getting lazy and greedy. All I know is that you eat, drink and be merry year after year, and eat all the food in a few years. The jujube trees in the yard are getting worse every year.
This year is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and there is really nothing to eat at home. What should I do? My brother found a small broom, and my brother brought a small dustpan to sweep in the cracks between big warehouse and the small warehouse where the grain was stored before. He swept a handful of yellow rice grains from here and found a handful of red beans from there. In this way, a few grains are gathered together, and the number is small, but there are many samples. Finally, he found some dried red dates and put them in the pot to cook together. After cooking, the two brothers began to eat porridge made of whole grains, and their eyes looked at each other, remembering what their parents said before they died, and they regretted it very much.
The two brothers suffered from laziness. After losing their children, they both worked hard the next year. Like my parents, I lived a good life after a few years, married a daughter-in-law and had children.
In order to learn the lesson of laziness, people should never forget to be thrifty. Since then, on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, people have eaten porridge cooked with whole grains. Because this day is the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, people call it "Laba porridge".

The landlord treated him badly and often abused him. He was often beaten and did not have enough to eat. On one occasion, Zhu Yuanzhang came back from herding cattle and passed a wooden bridge. Unexpectedly, the old cow slipped off the bridge and broke her leg. The landlord was so angry that he whipped Zhu Yuanzhang and locked him in a dark room without food. Zhu Yuanzhang was shivering with hunger. Suddenly, he found a mouse hole, which was the granary of mice! There are all kinds of food in the granary, including black beans, rice, millet and mung beans ... a little of everything. He cooked a pot of porridge with all the food.
