From 65438 to 0935, the government of the Republic of China designated April 5th as a national statutory holiday in Tomb-Sweeping Day, also known as the National Tomb Sweeping Festival.

In Tomb-Sweeping Day, besides paying attention to the prohibition of fire to sweep graves, there are a series of customary sports activities such as hiking, swinging, cuju, polo and willow insertion. According to legend, this is because it is forbidden to eat cold food during the Cold Food Festival. In order to prevent the harm of cold food and cold meal to people, everyone comes to participate in some sports activities to exercise. Therefore, this festival is a unique festival, which has both sad and sour tears for sweeping graves and laughter for an outing.

During his stay in Tomb-Sweeping Day, Jiangnan had the custom of eating green jiaozi. Green jiaozi is to mash a wild plant called "Pulp Wheat Straw" to squeeze out juice, then mix this juice with dry pure glutinous rice flour, and then wrap it in jiaozi. Jiaozi's stuffing is exquisite sugar bean paste, and a small piece of sugar lard is added when filling. Jiaozi cooked it and steamed it in a cage. When they come out, brush the cooked vegetable oil evenly on the surface of jiaozi, and you're done.
