Qingming Flower Baba
I can't remember how many years it has been since I haven't spent at home on Qingming Festival; this thing actually doesn't mean that I have to eat it on Qingming Festival. But when we were young, we remembered that every year, almost as the Qingming Festival was approaching, adults and children would go to the fields to pick this thing. At that time, the bamboo shoots had just grown out, and it was just time to dig the bamboo shoots back to make fillings with bacon. When the Qingming Festival really comes, we have to make rice dumplings to eat. When we go to visit tombs and worship ancestors, we will bring some rice dumplings to worship ancestors, and then everyone will share them together...
