Why do you want to eat steamed bread and rock sugar after the funeral?

In ancient times, steamed bread was handed down as a sacrifice, so it should be eaten. And rock sugar is homophonic.

According to legend, during the Three Kingdoms period, Shu was often attacked and harassed by Meng Huo, the owner of Nanman Cave, and Zhuge Liang personally led troops to fight in Meng Huo. Lushui area is vast and sparsely populated, miasma is heavy, and Lushui is toxic. Someone under Zhuge Liang put forward a superstitious idea: kill some savage prisoners and give their heads to the river god of Lushui. Zhuge Liang didn't adopt the idea of killing Na Man's prisoners, but in order to boost morale, he came up with a way: using flour and dough brought by the army, kneading them into heads and steaming them, instead of "Na Man's head as a sacrifice to the river god. Since then, this kind of pasta has been handed down and spread to the north. But it's so scary to be called "person", so people changed the word "person" into "person" and wrote it as "steamed bread". Over time, steamed bread has become the staple food of northerners.
