There is a legend among the people. It is said that when Wu Zetian became emperor, the Jade Emperor was furious. It is forbidden to rain on the ground for three years. Without rain, crops cannot be harvested. People's life is very difficult, they can't move. Lack of rain for a long time makes people's lives very difficult. The dragon king relented and finally began to rain. The Jade Emperor put the Dragon King at the foot of a big mountain to punish him. It is also said that unless the golden beans bloom, the dragon king will not return to heaven. Out of gratitude to the Dragon King and saving his life, people wanted to save the Dragon King, so they basked in the sun and fried corn on February 2. Because corn is similar to golden beans in crops, it is impossible for golden beans to bloom, but when corn is heated, it becomes popcorn and blooms for golden beans. What people did was seen by the Dragon King, who told the Jade Emperor that it was not a golden bean blossom. Through people's efforts, the Jade Emperor successfully saw the golden beans bloom and successfully brought the Dragon King back to heaven. It is precisely because of this that this day also carries people's good wishes for good weather and good harvests.
