Qu Yuan is a great patriotic poet in the history of China, the founder of romantic literature in China, and the founder and representative writer of Songs of the South. Li Sao, his work, has always influenced the people of China who persevered in the pursuit of truth and light, and persisted in justice and ideals. Why eat zongzi: 1. This is in memory of Qu Yuan. 2. It wants a child. On the Dragon Boat Festival, people give each other zongzi, which means to have a child. Nine zongzi, nine zongzi together. 3. Success, because the sound of "Zongzi" and "Zhong" is similar, which means success in the exam in ancient times. 4. Guangzong Yaozu, "Zongzi" and "Zhongzhong" sound similar, because eating Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival means "Guangzong Yaozu", so everyone eats Zongzi.

When people around and Qu Yuan's sister Qu Yuan saw Qu Yuan throw himself into the river, they sailed to look for it, but they never found it. In order to prevent fish and shrimp in the river from hurting Qu Yuan's health, people poured rice and glutinous rice into the river for fish and shrimp. Slowly, these customs evolved into dragon boat rowing and jiaozi packing.

The custom of eating zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival originated from the patriotic poet Qu Yuan who committed suicide by jumping into the river on May 5th. At that time, people and fishermen came to the river to salvage. At that time, in order to prevent fish and shrimp in the river from eating his body, people filled rice with bamboo tubes and threw eggs into the river.

In 278 BC, General Qin led an army south, but failed to return, attacking Kyoto, Chu. Seeing that his country was invaded, Qu Yuan felt like a knife, but he was powerless to return to heaven. Qu Yuan's political thought was completely shattered and he was deeply desperate for his political future. However, his restless motherland wrote his last work "Huai Sha" with compassion on May 5th, and jumped into the Miluo River with a big stone in his arms, explaining his patriotism with his own life.

In memory of Qu Yuan, I almost forgot the specific history. Qu Yuan was dissatisfied with the politics at that time, with profound knowledge and superb skills. He committed suicide in the Miluo River on the fifth day of May. In order to prevent fish from eating Qu Yuan's body, people packed jiaozi to feed the fish. Later, eating zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival has continued to this day.
