I mea e pale aku ai i ka iʻa a me ka ʻōpae mai ka hōʻeha ʻana i kona kino, ua hoʻopiha nā kānaka i ka laiki i loko o nā paipu ʻohe. iloko o ka muliwai. Mai ia manawa, i mea e hōʻike ai i ka mahalo a me ka hoʻomanaʻo ʻana iā Qu Yuan, waiho nā kānaka i ka laiki i loko o nā paipu ʻohe a hoʻolei iā lākou i loko o ka muliwai i kēlā me kēia lā e hoʻomaikaʻi. ʻO kēia ke kumu o ka laiki laiki mua loa ma koʻu ʻāina – “tube rice dumpling”. Ma hope mai, hoʻohana mālie ka poʻe i nā lau ʻohe ma kahi o nā paipu ʻohe e hana ai i zongzi, ʻo ia kā mākou zongzi maʻamau i kēia manawa.
