The Book of Songs Feng Wei Papaya wrote: "Give me papaya, and I will reward Joan. Not to thank you, always cherish your feelings. You want to send me a peach, and I want to give it back to Qiong Yao. Not to thank you, always cherish your feelings. You give me wood, and I'll take Joan Jiu in return. It is always good to report! " .? Papaya, a very common noun, is also a very common fruit, but is the "papaya" mentioned in the Book of Songs really a papaya sold in the market?
Papaya, a common fruit, originated in tropical America, is a common plant in southwest and south China, while the folk songs included in The Book of Songs Feng Wei came from Wei State in the pre-Qin period (now Qixian County, Henan Province). Obviously, the climate around Qixian County is not suitable for papaya to survive.
