It is said that when Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty tasted this kind of melon, he once asked what the melon was called. The servant only knew that it was presented by the prince of Hami County, so he replied that it was Hami melon. From then on, the name of cantaloupe spread like wildfire. This legend may not be true, but the name of Hami melon began during the Kangxi period, which is well documented. "Xinjiang Huibu Zhi" of the Qing Dynasty says: "Since the surrender of Hami in the early Kangxi period, this melon began to pay tribute, and it is called Hami melon."

The Self-Report of a Hami Melon

Lu Youzhen, fourth grade

Hello everyone, I am Ding Ding, who is known as "Melon" Mr. Cantaloupe, "King of All", have you heard of my reputation? Now let me introduce myself!

Our Hami melon family was mainly born in Xinjiang and Dunhuang, where the environment is elegant and it is a good place for us to live. I once compared the beauty with the watermelon family, and they could not compare with us every time.

Our original name was Melon. I heard my mother say that our current name was given during the Qing Dynasty. Legend has it that during the Qing Dynasty, King Shanshan of Xinjiang paid tribute to Emperor Kangxi every year, and melon was one of the must-have items! This year, the emperor ate a cantaloupe. He felt that the melon was sweet and pure, so he asked his entourage: "What kind of melon is this?" The entourage wanted to please the emperor, so he said it was a "cantaloupe". From then on, we have this good-sounding melon. The name has been passed down to this day.

In the golden autumn of October, we all grew fat and put on golden and rough clothes. When we were young, our bodies were very smooth, but there were many bugs that would bite us. So our mother put on some rough clothes for us, and from then on I was no longer afraid of pests.

Seeing that someone came to buy me again, he looked at me and knocked on my body again, making a "dong dong" sound. He saw that I was quite fat, so he put it on me. I take it home.

When he got home, he cut me open, and my body became two halves, with a lot of water flowing out. My flesh was golden yellow, and there were many light yellow seeds squeezed together in the middle. I saw The people who bought me were salivating, so I must be delicious. What will happen to him when he takes a bite?
