What vegetarian dishes are there in Qingming Festival Mountain?
Tomb-Sweeping Day has a history of more than 2,500 years in China, leaving a deep imprint on the tradition of the Chinese nation. There are many different traditions of "there are cases everywhere in the countryside", and there is a Tomb-Sweeping Day in Guangdong.
Folk eat buckwheat spring rolls
Traditional Guangzhou people have always attached importance to sweeping graves on Qingming Day, and have the custom of "sweeping graves" on Zhengqing Day.
A few days ago, a family in their fifties in Liwan District, Li Jianwei made a general mobilization for ancestor worship at Qingming Festival. According to him, Tomb-Sweeping Day is an annual gathering day for their big family of more than 40 people. "Walking" is different from hiking, which is an outing. "Walking" means that a group of people agree to go to the grave together on that day. According to the old custom, when sweeping graves, people should bring food, wine, fruit, paper money and other items to the cemetery, offer food to the graves of their loved ones, then burn the paper money, cultivate new soil for the graves, break some green branches and insert them in front of the graves, then kowtow and worship, and finally go home after eating and drinking.
Four traditional sacrifices
Citizen He Yi said: "Now there are all kinds of sacrifices, from villas to beautiful women. But our family is more traditional and generally doesn't do those things. Every year, my mother instructs everyone to buy separately. There are generally four major pieces: golden pigs, sugarcane apples and other fruits, paper money ingots, cakes and cakes. "
He Yi said that seven people in their two families usually surround the altar and share the sacrifices of those fruits and cakes. All adults and children who participate in the "clearance" will eat a crisp Qingming sugarcane, which means happiness and sweetness. Usually, after buying a roast pig, it will be divided into a large piece. The pig's head and pork are evenly matched, and no matter how rich or poor, it will never fail. There is a famous saying about the sharing of pork, that is, "ancestors, regardless of their own size, will distribute it to everyone equally, and there is no favoritism."
"Qingming buckwheat dish" is indispensable.
After the sacrifice in Guangzhou, it is not a complete form of offering sacrifices to pork. Family members will take pork home during the Qingming Festival and fry it with the vegetable "Qingming buckwheat dish". Others are too lazy to use this "Qingming buckwheat dish" with some shredded eggs and stir-fry some spring rolls. After eating these dishes, this year's "clearing the line" task will be completed.
The day before in Tomb-Sweeping Day, many people would buy a bunch of fresh willow branches and put them at the door to avoid disaster.
Women are forbidden to go up mountains in some places. Sacrifice on the mountain can only be done by men, and women can do chores, such as making paper money, silver ingots and steamed cakes. Only when men take roast pork home can they fry it for the whole family at once. In this way, women can be considered blessed by their ancestors.
Zhaoqing:
Eat sugarcane to the end.
In Zhaoqing, according to the old custom, when sweeping graves, people should bring food, wine, fruit, paper money and other items to the cemetery, offer food to the graves of their loved ones, then burn the paper money, cultivate new soil for the graves, break some green branches and insert them on the graves, then kowtow and worship, and finally go home after eating the food.
The traditional sacrifices are generally four pieces: roasted pigs, sugar cane, apples and other fruits, paper money ingots and cakes. "Gold-worshipping pig" means red skin and strong, showing great plans.
Tomb-Sweeping Day Zhaoqing also has the custom of eating sugar cane, which means happiness and sweetness. Adults will tell their children from beginning to end to eat sugar cane, not to eat or throw it away. It is said that only in this way can things be completed.
The reporter learned in the interview that women are not allowed to go up the mountain in some places. Only men are qualified to complete the form of sacrifice on the mountain, while women are responsible for making paper money, gold ingots, steamed cakes and so on. When men take roast pork home to eat, women will be blessed by their ancestors.
Hakka
Tomb-Sweeping Day doesn't sacrifice.
Text/Reporter Zhou Wei
Hakkas used to sweep graves in February or September of the lunar calendar instead of Tomb-Sweeping Day.
According to Zhu Diguang, director of Meixian Museum, during the Millennium migration, Hakkas drifted around with the remains of their ancestors and found a place to stay. Then they scrubbed the bones clean, put them in the "golden pagoda", chose a land of geomantic omen and auspicious days, and buried them in order to pray for ancestors to bless future generations.
The Hakka people's habit of offering sacrifices to their ancestors is: on the New Year's Eve of the Spring Festival every year, they should worship the heavens and the earth and their ancestors and thank them for their blessings over the past year.
Ancestors were sacrificed in the Spring and Autumn Period, not in Tomb-Sweeping Day. There are two reasons: First, there is a famine in Tomb-Sweeping Day. In April, it is difficult for poor Hakkas to arrange three sacrifices (chicken, pork and fish) to worship their ancestors, let alone arrange other sacrifices; Second, Qingming is in the busy season of spring ploughing production, and every household is busy transplanting rice seedlings. Once the season is missed, there will be problems with the harvest.
Therefore, the ancestor worship of Hakka people, also called Guazu, or Xidi, is held in February and September of the lunar calendar in the slack season, and there is a ceremony to worship ancestors after the autumn harvest in September.
Shaoguan
Pick mugwort leaves to make hair clips.
Text/reporter Bu Yu
Every year when the Hakkas in Shaoguan sweep the graves, they will first shovel the weeds around the ancestral graves, clean up the hillside, then offer sacrifices such as chicken, duck, fish, fresh fruit, cakes and drinks, and finally set off firecrackers and go home for dinner.
Many people in mountainous areas will pick fresh mugwort leaves and make "green hairpin" with glutinous rice and sugar, commonly known as "Qingming hairpin". This snack has a unique fragrance of wild grass, which can not only dispel wind and dehumidify, but also has the miraculous effect of expelling parasites in the body. It is most suitable for eating in wet spring, so this custom has been passed down from generation to generation in Hakka areas.
Foshan
In memory of loyal ministers
Text/Reporter Liao Yinjie Xiao Ying Li Qian
Yu Wanshao, a folk expert in Foshan, told reporters that before the Republic of China, the most important procedure for sweeping graves was to go to the ancestral temple to worship the Taigong who opened the village. Women are absolutely not allowed to go up the mountain to sweep graves, mainly because they can't attend the ceremony where pork is too cm long. Foshan has the custom of inserting willows in Tomb-Sweeping Day. This custom is to commemorate the minister of Jin Dynasty, Jie Zitui. Jiezitui set himself on fire under the willow tree to celebrate Zhi Ming. The next year, the old willow tree came back from the dead. Jin Wengong named the old willow "Qingming Willow", and on the spot, he broke off the willow and put it on his head to show his memory. Since then, officials and people have followed suit and followed suit.
