Today, at the Laba Festival, I will simply do [Qibao Wuwei Porridge]. At first hearing this name, I must feel it is good to "make"! Ha ha, a simple porridge, named it, and it came up with this trick! For eyeballs? In fact, I also searched for some allusions about Laba Congee on Baidu, only to realize that Laba Congee is also called Qibao Wuwei Congee.
Laba porridge is a kind of porridge made from various ingredients in [Laba Festival], also called Qibao Wuwei porridge. Eat Laba porridge to celebrate the harvest, which has been passed down to this day. The earliest Laba porridge was cooked with red beans. After evolution and local characteristics, it gradually became more colorful.
Know the name! Let’s listen to the story! When I was a child, I loved listening to grandma telling stories, and I also heard grandma tell stories about the origin of Laba porridge. The omnipotent "Du Niang" found this story that reminds us of diligence and frugality and housekeeping, the same as the grandmother told.
In the early years, there was such a family of four, the old couple and two sons. The old couple are very diligent and work in the fields all year round. Plowing in spring, plowing in summer, hoeing in autumn, working hard and working hard. All kinds of food stored in the house are large and full, but small. There is also a big jujube tree in their yard. The old couple carefully cultivated them. The jujubes are crisp and sweet. They can be sold at the market. They can sell a lot of money and live a very rich life.
The old couple rushed hard to get married to their two sons.
Seeing that the son is reaching the age when he should marry a daughter-in-law, and the old couple is not old enough. When the old father is dying, he asks the brothers to grow crops; when the old mother is dying, he asks the brothers to take good care of the dates in the yard. Tree, save money and food to keep married.
The family of four now has the two brothers alone. The older brother saw the large and small hoards of grain, and said to his younger brother: "We have so much grain, it's enough. Let's take a break this year!"
The younger brother said: "This year's jujube tree is no longer a problem, anyway, we are not short of jujubes."
In this way, the two brothers are getting lazier and more greedy. Just knowing that I eat, drink and have fun year after year, I ate up my food in a few years, and the jujube trees in the yard are not as good as one year after year.
This year, on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, there is really nothing to eat at home, what should I do? My brother found a small broom, and my brother brought a small dustpan, and swept it in the bottom and small crevices of the large food storage. Sweeping, I scanned a handful of yellow rice grains from here, and found a handful of red beans from there. Just like that, we made up a few handfuls of miscellaneous grains and grains. Cook them all in the pot. When it was cooked, the two brothers ate the porridge made up of all kinds of grains, and looked at each other before remembering what their parents had said before they died, and regretted it greatly.
The brothers tasted the bitterness of laziness, and the lost son turned around. In the second year, they became diligent. Like their parents, they lived a good life in a few years, married a daughter-in-law, and had children.
In order to remember the lesson of laziness, people must not forget to live hard and frugally. Since then, on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, people will eat porridge made with mixed grains, because this day is the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. Eight, so people call it "Laba Congee."
