I picked up the fake money and kept burning it. My brother and I were sweating and worshipped in the grave. Grandma said, "well, well, I'm going to the old man's grave!"
As we walked, my brother said, "sister, let's run." I agreed. We started the race and I ran forward quickly. Dad said, "it's better to jog like this. It's time for you to exercise at your age." I sighed and said, "I see." After sweeping the grave, I want to buy ice cream. My father said, "today is also your hard work." I bought an ice cream. It's colorful and delicious.

As we all know, April 5 is Tomb Sweeping Day. Yes, today is Tomb Sweeping Day.
Grandpa and I went to the cemetery to sweep the grave for grandma and grandpa first. We first pull out the grass on the tomb, and then some tender willow branches on the tomb; Then burn the paper money. After finishing it, Grandpa asked me to kowtow three heads to grandma and grandpa. I wondered, "why do you have to knock three heads?" Grandpa couldn't answer, so he said, "go back and check the computer yourself!"
When we came back, we ate some cold food. What I don't understand is to ask, "why do you eat cold food during the Qingming Festival? "Grandma told me about the origin of cold food:" in the spring and Autumn period, there was a virtuous Minister of Duke Wen of Jin called Jie Zitui. After Duke Wen of Jin became king, he lived in seclusion in the mountains. On the day before the Qingming Festival, Duke Wen of Jin sent someone to set fire to the mountains to force Jie Zitui out of the mountains to become an official. Jie Zitui was unwilling to go down the mountain to be an official. As a result, he was burned to death in the mountains. Duke Wen of Jin regretted it, so on the next day (Qingming Festival) Ordered that fireworks be banned throughout the country, and only cold food is allowed. After that, it has formed the custom of eating cold food on the Qingming Festival. " I couldn't help exclaiming: "there's such a story!"
What a harvest today!

The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly,the trees and grass bee green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times,people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.
People love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the Qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day,but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars,and therefore,are called "god‘s lanterns."
The Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees,for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past,the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day"。 But since 1979,"Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.

China has a long history of more than 5,000 years, so the variety of culture has been preserved. These meaningful cultures are treated as our national treasure. In order to remember them, the government has named the official holiday. Tomb-sweeping Day is one of the meaningful festivals. People have days’ off every year and the families will get together, sweeping their ancestors’ tombs.
People believe that they do this can bring good luck, because their ancestors will bless them. Some people question the meaning of this festival, because they think people are superstitious. As for me, I think this day teaches people to in honor of their ancestors and respect the culture. It is not something about superstition, but about showing respect to the culture. We need to pass on our culture from generations, or we will lose our national treasure.

Today is Tomb Sweeping Day. I'm so happy because my grandparents' graves are in the countryside, so I can go to the countryside to play, but I'm still a little sad to think of my dead relatives.
My brother-in-law and I wandered outside. When we met his classmates, we went to hang up "Qing" with his classmates. It's strange to say that his family's old grave is in a relatively high place. It took a lot of effort to walk up when the director is full of weeds. There are several graves in the grass. It is this complex place that makes them often hang Qing on other people's graves.
When I came back, I saw all kinds of "Qing" made of plastic and paper hanging on different graves. I never understood its meaning. Now I know that it is a kind of remembrance of my dead relatives.
