Whistle, Xiushui specialty.

Speaking of Xiushui's specialty? Whistle is one of our three famous water-repairing snacks and the oldest water-repairing snack.

Speaking of. Water whistle? There is also a wonderful story among the people who repair water. According to legend, during the Xia and Yu dynasties, flash floods broke out in Xiushui area, farmland and villages were destroyed, and crops were not harvested. Farmers make a living by picking wild vegetables and wild fruits on the mountain. After Dayu came to repair the water, he organized the masses to control the flood. The people who repaired water are very grateful to Dayu for his achievements and virtues in water control, but in that famine year and disaster month, they couldn't come up with anything good to offer. Think about it, during the flood control period, Dayu worked hard with the masses to control water, and for many days and nights, he didn't even have enough to eat. I'm terribly sorry. At that time, in the face of high mountains and dense forests, an old farmer suggested that we go up the mountain to play some game to bid farewell to Dayu to show our gratitude. So after discussion, they sent people up the mountain to dig wild sweet potatoes and at the same time sent people to kill wild animals. In this way, they cooked the wild sweet potatoes they dug up and made them into skins, cut the meat of wild animals into stuffing, wrapped them into a kind of food with a sharp shape, named whistle, and served Dayu. Dayu and everyone thought it was delicious after eating it. Since then, people who repair water can cook and eat whistles, which has been passed down from generation to generation. The more they cook, the better they taste, and it has become a must for repairing water food.

Nowadays, whenever there is a festival, relatives and friends come to live, which is a major festival. People who repair water like to whistle to show their celebration and hospitality to relatives and friends. Today, however, people who repair water no longer eat whistles made of wild sweet potatoes and animal meat. With the improvement of living standards, the materials used for whistles have become more and more exquisite, and the production has also been greatly improved.

This is our water repair whistle.
