Durian origin:

According to legend, Zheng He led the fleet to the South China Sea three times in the Ming Dynasty, and it took too long to go to sea. The crew is homesick, anxious to return. One day Zheng He found a strange fruit on the shore and brought it back to taste with everyone. Many crew members praised this fruit after eating it, and their homesickness faded for a while.

Someone asked Zheng He what the name of this fruit was, and he casually replied: "Lingering" means "Lingering in the mainland of the motherland", pinning his homesickness. Durian and lingering are homophonic, and later people call it durian.
