origin

（起源）

qing ming is popularly associated with jie zi zhui,

who lived in shanxi province in 600 b.c. legend has it that jie

saved his starving lords life by serving a piece of his own leg.

when the lord succeeded in becoming the ruler of a small

principality, he invited his faithful follower to join him. however,

jie declined his invitation, preferring to lead a hermits life with

his mother in the mou ntains.

谈到清明节，有点历史知识的人，都

会联想到历 史人物介子椎。据历史记载，在两千多

年以前的春秋时

代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰苦，跟随他的介子椎不惜从自

己的 腿上

割下一块肉让他充饥。后来，重耳回到晋国，作了国君< /p>

（即晋文公，春秋五霸之一），大事

封 赏所有跟随他流亡在外的随

从，惟独介子椎拒绝接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山。

believing

that he could force jie out by burning the mountain, the lord

ordered his men to set the forest on fire. to his consternation,

jie chose to remain where he was and was burnt to death. to

commemorate jie, the lord ordered all fires in every home to be

put out on the anniversary of jies death. thus began the cold

food feast, a day when no food could be cooked since no fire

could be lit.

亲，一定会带着老母 出来。谁知

这场大火却把介子椎母子烧死了。

为了纪念介子椎，晋文公下令每年的这一天，禁止生火，

家家户户

只能吃生冷的食物，这就是寒食节的来源。

the cold food festival

occurs on the eve of qing ming and is often considered as part

of the qing ming festival. as time passes, the qing ming festival

replaced the cold food festival. whatever practice is observed

，

the basic observation of qing ming is to remember ones elders

by making a special effort to visit their graves, ashes or

ancestral tablets. to make the visit even more meaningful,

some time should be spent to remind the younger members of

the family of the lives and contributions of their ancestors, and

the story of jie zi zhui who choose death over capitulation.

寒食

节 是在清明节的前一天，古人常把寒食节的活动延续到清明，久而

久之，清明取代
