The legend of the Bui folk: the legend of the stinging of June 6th
there is a rich dam in the upper white water river of guizhou, called the five-stamp and the hump mountain.
the mountains are surrounded, with only a few of them reaching the outside, and the roads are difficult and difficult.
all those living on this fertile land are the bui people.
once upon a time, the hardworking and courageous bui people, who did not wish to be brutally exploited by the rulers, organized themselves to resist the oppression of the official family.
at the end of the ming dynasty, emperor zhong zheng zheng's uprisings forced the people to rise up against them.
in order to survive, the five-mounted bui, the men went to the gate day and night to guard against bandits entering the hill and harassing and looting.
the crops in the fields are made by women.
in the month of june, the sun was tanned like fire, and the valley of the white water was turned into a steam cage.
on the dam, the seedlings and the weeds were long, and the earth was tanned with cracks.
the girls get up in the morning, they can't even clean their heads, they can't eat, they turn on their backs, they pick out a bucket, they walk and they nurse their children.
at that time, all the bui women of each village took the burden of the mountains.
it hasn't rained for a long time, and the valleys are dry and weedy.
it was only when the sun came up that she remembered that her husband, jun, was guarding the mountain in the south mountain and had not eaten, and she was going home to cook for the men.
she's a good-faith daughter-in-law.
she came back from the ground and thought, "young must have been starving.
had she sent more food yesterday, she wouldn't have to starve.
however, on such a hot day, the first day of cooking will not be finished, the next day will not be long.
when i think of jun, i forget i've been dripping from morning.
she went all the way, picked a lot of bamboo leaves, came back and cut a large amount of gravy in a large pot of rice, and put in a lot of sorbets.
three packs of bamboo leaves were taken to namshan.
she gave arjun rice from bamboo leaf buns and said, “you are busy in the field and you can't leave the mountain.
you can keep this rice when you're hungry." jun took the bamboo leaf and the warm heart of his wife and was hungry, and he took the bamboo leaf rice out of it and ate it separately.
it's a good way for everyone to compliment the girls.
on june 6th of the next day, the men on the hill asked their families to learn the way of the bamboo, and to eat rice with bamboo leaves.
from that time onward, the bui people of the flat-mounted mountains, whether in their years of war or peace, took bamboo leaves or sorghum leaves, wrapped rice and rice, soy sauce, etc., and cooked them and brought them to the mountains for food。
