What's the meaning of two Fu noodles

Fu Riyi eats noodles. There is a slang in the north, which is called "tou Fu dumplings, er Fu noodles, and San Fu pancakes, and eggs". At least the Three Kingdoms period has begun the custom of eating noodles in the sun. According to the Weishi spring and Autumn Annals, when he Yan 'laid down the sun eating soup cake, took the towel and wiped his sweat, his face was bright', people knew that he Yan's skin white was not covered with powder, but natural white. The "soup cake" here is hot soup noodles.

In the past, when the wheat harvest was less than a month, every family had food, so they used this time to enjoy their food, and there was the saying that "delicious is better than dumplings", so dumplings naturally became the first choice. Nowadays, dumplings are not a rarity. People can eat them all the year round without waiting for "head Fu", "winter solstice" and "New Year's Eve". Dumplings are shaped like Yuanbao. Fu and Fu have the same sound. Therefore, toufu dumplings have the saying that Yuanbao hides Fu. In the hot summer, people tend to have a bad appetite and can't eat anything. Dumplings are the appetizers in traditional customs. So, people eat dumplings in "toufu" in the hope that they can spend the summer safely.

According to Liang zongbi's notes on the age of Jingchu in the Southern Dynasty:

May is a bad month, and June is also on the edge of the bad month, so we should also 'fight against evil'. This is superstition. New wheat is ground into flour to cook soup. After eating, you will sweat all over your body. The new grain is rich in nutrition. Sweating can drive disease. Eating soup cake in June is scientific.

In addition to hot noodle soup, you can also eat water in the dog days. Pass the cooked noodles out with cold water, mix with garlic puree, and pour with marinade, not only to stimulate appetite, but also to 'lose heart fire'.

Fuli can also eat 'fried noodles'. The so-called fried noodles, is to use the pot to fry the wheat, and then grind ten thousand flour, and then mix it with water and sugar. This kind of eating method has existed in Han Dynasty. It was more common in Tang and Song Dynasties, but at that time, it was to fry the cooked wheat first, and then grind the pasta. Su Gong, a medical expert in the Tang Dynasty, said that fried noodles could "relieve the heat, stop the discharge and make the large intestine real".
