Avoid evil jokes

In recent years, there has been a saying on the Internet that the Dragon Boat Festival can only be said to be "Happy Dragon Boat Festival", because it is a sad day for Qu Yuan to throw himself into the water, a day for poisoning the moon, and a festival for getting rid of diseases and preventing epidemics. That was not the case.

Dragon Boat Festival, one of the four traditional festivals in China, was originally founded by ancient ancestors to worship the dragon ancestors and pray for evil spirits, and later served as a festival to commemorate Qu Yuan.

Ankang, which means peace and health, comes from the second fold of Guan Hanqing's Moon Pavilion in the Yuan Dynasty: "Come to Yimen Street until you are healthy and visit again in a good time."

Although the reflection also uses the word "Ankang", it only means stability and tranquility. Biography of the Three Kingdoms, Wu Zhi and Sun Linchuan: "The general is loyal to his internal development, helps him to live in danger and is healthy and prosperous."

In other words, the word Ankang is much later than the Dragon Boat Festival. The combination of "Dragon Boat Festival Ankang" has only become popular in recent years, and it has to be said that "Dragon Boat Festival Ankang" is a kind of cultural kidnapping. In many places, there are lively dragon boat races on the Dragon Boat Festival, and relatives and friends visit each other. This is a happy festival. The ancients recorded many happy characters of the Dragon Boat Festival. For example, Su Shi's poem "Dragon Boat Festival is as late as a restaurant" says: "Riding this year, the number of days and nights in the festival."

Dragon Boat Festival has profound cultural connotations and rich customs. How can you be unhappy but healthy?

For example, an article in "xiaoxiang morning herald" in June this year 12 pointed out: "It is an ancient tradition to exchange greetings on the Dragon Boat Festival. Blessing' Dragon Boat Festival Ankang' did not exist in ancient times, but only in modern times. "

The author also found that the reason why "Dragon Boat Festival is well-being" is widely circulated is because of a WeChat joke on 20 15: "Remind everyone that the Dragon Boat Festival can't wish each other happiness, but at most wish each other' Dragon Boat Festival is well-being', because the Dragon Boat Festival is a festival of sacrifice. On this day, Wu Zixu threw himself into Qiantang River, Cao E saved his father, and the great writer Qu Yuan threw himself into Miluo River. The fifth day of May is a solemn and stirring day, a day of sacrifice. Professor Yang Guangyu, a non-legacy expert, said that not all festivals can wish each other happiness, such as Tomb-Sweeping Day and Dragon Boat Festival. Only send each other' Ankang'. "
