Cucumber is green why is it called cucumber

Don't know if everyone has the same confusion as me? Many food names are inconsistent with real ones. For example, cucumbers are obviously green. Why is it called cucumber? Later I learned that it was the case!

There is a little-known story about the origin of the name of cucumber.

黄瓜

In ancient China, the remote peoples of the West were called “Hu”. According to historical records in China, the Zhang Dai in the Han Dynasty went to the West, brought back a kind of melon, and promoted cultivation in the folk, becoming the main vegetable on the table of the people. One, therefore, is called "Cucumber."

In 319 AD, the Shi people of the She nationality destroyed the Chinese nation and occupied the northern part of China. Zhao Guo was established. In the country now known as Xingtai, the country became the emperor. Shiler asked the people to call the Yi nationality the “national”. It thought that the title of the Hu people was right. Their respect, but many people are still accustomed to call them "who", so he set a decree, regardless of words, write articles, the use of "Hu" is strictly prohibited, who committed this taboo, we must kill.

Once, Shi Le summoned the local officials. Fan Tan, a provincial governor, dressed in broken clothes and met him. He was furious and sternly questioned: “Why are you dishevelled and wearing a pair of broken shoes?” Fan Tan was honest, honest and honest, and he was accused of not being alarmed. ,Do not be angry. ”

This incident did not end there. To further explore whether Fan Tan was respectful for him or not, Schleser gave “a meal to the imperial family” and there was a plate of courgettes. He pointed to the cucumber and asked Fan Tan: “Do you know this?” Fan Tan often eats courgettes. Of course, very familiar with the matter just let Fan Tan have a vigilant heart, then he said respectfully and said: purple case food, silver cup of tea; gold statue of nectar, jade dish cucumber. Shi Le was very happy, so Xiangfan was acquitted.

At this point, cucumbers have spread to the people and have been used up to now.
