Cold Food Festival。

寒食节

The Cold Food Festival or Hanshi Festival is a traditional Chinese holiday celebrated for one day before Tomb-Sweeping Day. On that day, making fire is taboo and only cold food is available.

寒食节是中国一个传统节日，就在清明节的前一天。在这一天，禁烟火，只吃冷食。

Legend has it that Prince Chong’er of the state of Jin during the Spring and Autumn period, endured many hardships while he was exiled from his home state. Once, in order to help the prince who was tormented by hunger, Jie Zhitui cut off the flesh from his thigh and offered it to the prince for sustenance.

传说晋国的王子重耳(后来的晋文公)在流放期间受了很多苦难。一次，为了帮助这位王子，介子推曾经割股为他充饥。

When Chong’er became Duke Wen of Jin, however, he did not reward him, instead killing Jie and his mother in a fire. Later, Duke Wen, filled with remorse, ordered that using fire on the anniversary of Jie’s death was forbidden and all food was to be consumed cold.

晋文公归国为君后，却忘记了奖赏他，相反却放火杀死了介子推和其母。后来，晋文公感到十分后悔，为了纪念这位忠臣义士，于是在介子推死难之日不生火做饭，要吃冷食。
