"When all things grow, they are clean and clear, so it is called Qingming", and unconsciously we ushered in the Qingming Festival, one of the four traditional festivals in China.
Qingming Festival is different from other solar terms, it is not only a natural solar term point at the turn of mid-spring and late spring, but also a day when people miss their deceased relatives. In addition, farming is about to begin, and the mountains and fields are full of wild vegetables, because the Qingming Festival is also a day for people to go out for outings and enjoy delicious food.
Why is the Qingming Festival in 2024 unusual?
Every year, the Qingming Festival is on April 5, and this year it is on April 4, which is known as "Early Qingming". 2024 is the year of Jiachen, and the beginning of spring is before the year, so it is also called the "Year of the Widow" or "the year of Jiachen without spring".

Compared with beef and mutton, fish is easy to digest, the price is slightly lower, there are many varieties, and the cooking methods are diverse, so it is more cost-effective to eat. Fish meat is high in protein, and the importance of protein to the human body can be imagined. After spring, the fish leave the deep water and go to the shallow water to play, the meat is delicate and fat, and it is not greasy to eat for a long time.
There is a saying in the folk that "no fish is not a feast", and it also has the meaning of "surplus", so don't miss the Qingming Festival.
