“五月五，是端午。门插艾，香满堂。吃粽子，撒白糖。龙船下水喜洋洋。”一年一度的端午节又到了。以前我只知道端午节要吃粽子，却不知道怎么裹粽子，为什么要裹粽子。今年的端午节，我总算明白了。
"May 5 is Dragon Boat Festival. The door is full of wormwood. Eat zongzi and sprinkle sugar. The dragon boat went into the water jubilantly The annual Dragon Boat Festival is here again. Before, I only knew that I would eat Zongzi at Dragon Boat Festival, but I didn't know how to wrap zongzi and why. This year's Dragon Boat Festival, I finally understand.
瞧！我婆婆正忙得不亦乐乎呢，又要准备粽子，又要准备“五红”和“五黄”。看婆婆包粽子，我觉得是一种享受。只见她左手拿起一片粽叶，迅速地卷成漏斗状，右手抓一把糯米塞进粽叶，再用粽叶紧紧裹住糯米，然后用线把粽子扎紧。就这么一会儿功夫，碧绿的粽叶、雪白的糯米，摇身一变就成了一个三角形的粽子。
Look! My mother-in-law is so busy that she has to prepare zongzi, five red and five yellow. I think it's a pleasure to see my mother-in-law making zongzi. She picked up a piece of Zongye in her left hand and quickly rolled it into a funnel-shaped shape. With her right hand, she grabbed a handful of glutinous rice and stuffed it into the Zongye. Then she tightly wrapped the glutinous rice in the Zongye and tied the zongzi with thread. In such a short time, green zongzi leaves and white glutinous rice are transformed into a triangle zongzi.
我问婆婆：“端午节为什么要包粽子呢？”“我也不太清楚，反正我们从小就是这样过端午节。你去问问你外公。”这时外公走过来说：“端午节吃粽子是为了纪念战国时期的诗人屈原。楚国都城被秦国攻占了以后，屈原就投江自尽了。人们为了不让江里的鱼虾把他吃掉，就包了粽子扔进江里。赛龙舟的习俗也是这么来的。”
I asked my mother-in-law, "why do you make Zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival?" "I don't know. Anyway, this is how we spent the Dragon Boat Festival when we were little. Ask your grandfather. " At this time, grandpa came and said, "the Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate Qu Yuan, the poet of the Warring States period. After the capital of Chu state was occupied by Qin state, Qu Yuan committed suicide by throwing himself into the river. In order not to let the fish and shrimps in the river eat him, people wrapped dumplings and threw them into the river. This is also the custom of dragon boat racing. "
“哦。你们小时候是怎么过端午节的啊？”
"Oh. How did you spend the Dragon Boat Festival when you were little? "
“我们小时候过端午除了吃粽子，还要准备五红五黄。家家门口都挂艾草。”
"In addition to eating zongzi, we had to prepare five red and five yellow for the Dragon Boat Festival as children. Wormwood is hung at the door of every house. "
“什么叫五红五黄啊？”
"What is five red and five yellow?"
“应该是五种吃的，我知道的有雄黄酒、鸭蛋、苋菜。”
"There should be five kinds of food. I know realgar wine, duck eggs and amaranth."
“为什么要挂艾草呢？”
"Why do you want to hang wormwood?"
“因为艾草有一种特殊的香味，可以驱赶蚊虫。”
"Because wormwood has a special fragrance that can repel mosquitoes."
“看来端午节的习俗真不少呢。”
"It seems that there are many customs of Dragon Boat Festival."
“是啊，端午在过去是一个重要的节日呢，这些习俗也是传统文化啊！现在过端午没有那么讲究了，不过，粽子还是要包的。你跟你婆婆学学包粽子去吧！”
"Yes, the Dragon Boat Festival was an important festival in the past. These customs are also traditional culture! Now the Dragon Boat Festival is not so exquisite, but zongzi is still to be wrapped. You and your mother-in-law learn how to make zongzi! "
