Festive customs.

Today is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month - Dragon Boat Festival, an essay on festival customs. It is to commemorate the day when Qu Yuan was martyred and jumped into the Miluo River. In order to prevent the fish and shrimp from eating the meat on Qu Yuan's body.

People wrapped glutinous rice in dumpling leaves and put it into the Miluo River. And people also have to eat zongzi, salted duck eggs, hang calamus and wormwood in front of the house, but also drink some realgar wine, people also hold dragon boat races. No, our family took our grandmother, uncle, aunt, and little cousin to Jiangjin Zhongshan Ancient Town ** Dragon Boat Race.

After a long journey of more than 1 hour, we came to the place where the dragon boat race was held - Jiangjin Zhongshan Ancient Town. Due to the rain in the morning, the dragon boat race that was originally in the morning was changed to the afternoon (the afternoon was sunny). When my dad saw that I was very interested in dragon boat racing, he introduced me endlessly:

Dragon boat racing is an important activity of the Dragon Boat Festival, it is very popular in the south of our country, it is a traditional Chinese folk water sports and entertainment project, has been spread for more than 2,000 years, is a multi-person collective paddling competition. Dragon boat racing was raised in honor of the patriotic poet Qu Yuan. The length of the boat is generally 20-30 meters, and there are about 30 rowers on each boat.

There were 26 rowers, 1 helmsman, 2 drummers, and 1 trumpeter. I nodded in understanding.

In the afternoon, we walked out of the inn and came to the river. Stilted buildings by the river hang over the rocks. In order to block the strong sunlight, blue cloth is hung on the roof of the balcony of every house. We walked across the stone bridge and continued on our way ......

Wow! See the dragon boat! My cousin exclaimed. "It really is! "You see, dragon boats come in different colors: vivid reds, bright yellows, dull blacks, and crisp blues. It turned out that the color of the dragon boat was determined by the paint painted according to the color of the Dragon King of the Four Seas.

As soon as we arrived at the river, the rowers appeared. Drink, all of them are very strong. And the people on different dragon boats were wearing different colored vests.

Please take your seats! The referee shouted over a megaphone. The rowers are seated according to the serial number.

1——2——3!Let's go! ”

In the sound of firecrackers, ushered in the traditional festival of our country - the Lantern Festival.

During the Lantern Festival, of course, you should eat a bowl of steaming rice balls when you get up in the morning. The glutinous rice balls are kneaded with sticky dough, some large and some small, some powdery and some white, and put them in a pot to steam for a while. The boiled rice balls are like cute fat dolls.

Take a bite, the hot black sesame seeds roll into the heart like running water, the mouth is full of strong sesame flavor, and the sweet taste and taste are left on the tip of the tongue, representing a harmonious life of the family.

In the evening, I went outside to play, and the streets and alleys were lit up, and the most beautiful thing was the moat. The moat is brilliantly lit and full of people. I roam in the world of lights, carefully watching, lifelike goldfish lanterns, vivid lotus lanterns, simple and elegant palace lanterns - all kinds of lanterns are beautiful, elegantly decorated, fine workmanship, really dazzling, beautiful.

On the calm surface of the river, the shadow of a lamp was reflected, as if there was a light at the bottom of the river. A breeze blew, the river rippled on the surface, and the shadows of the lamps swayed with it.

Good! "I was attracted by a burst of cheers, and it turned out that someone was guessing the lantern riddle not far away. I also wanted to guess, but there were too many people, forming a 'human' wall, which surrounded the stage for guessing lantern riddles.

I stood outside the 'human' wall and listened to the laughter coming from inside. The host began to say the lantern riddle: "One person has one mouth (guess one word)."

It's a 'he' word. The host smiled and said, "Congratulations, you got it right."

As soon as the words fell, there was a thunderous applause around them.

The Lantern Festival, a lively and extraordinary festival, ends with the laughter of the people.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a young man named Chen Fan, who liked to read since he was on the plateau, but his life was very lazy, and he rarely cleaned up even his own study.

One day, because someone named Xue Qing came to visit Cheng Fan's father, it happened that his father was not away, Cheng Fanjian, and when the guests arrived, he came out of his study to receive him, and Xue Qing casually walked into Chen Fan's study while greeting him.

As soon as Xue Qing entered the study, he was really startled, the room was dirty and messy, there was everything on the table, it was full of dust, there was garbage everywhere, there were a lot of cobwebs on the wall, the house was not dirty, and even the air seemed dirty, after Xueqin saw it, not only frowned, he said to Cheng Fan, why did the young man make such a mess? Why not clean the house?

The big husband lives in the world to do vigorous big things, and the right-hand chef is all the injustices in the world, ** will spend time cleaning a small room? Young man, you don't even have a lot of small rooms, how can you sweep the world?
