  Because rice dumpling (read: zhong-zi) sounds like winning in Chinese, so people nowadays consider rice dumpling a symbol of good luck and often eat/give dumpling to students/lottery players on the important days.




  History: It is to commemorate the death of Qu Yuan, a famous Chinese poet from the kingdom of Chu who lived during the Warring States period. Known for his patriotism, Qu tried unsuccessfully to warn his king against the expansionism of their Qin neighbors. When the Qin took Chu in 278 BC, Qu Yuan's grief was so intense that he drowned himself in the Miluo river . In memory of Qu, people threw packets of rice into the river to prevent the fish from eating his body.
