What is the origin of Qingming Festival?

The Qingming Festival was originally just one of the 24 solar terms, but because there were two sacrificial festivals, the Cold Food Festival and the Shangsi Festival, before and after the Qingming Festival, the ancients gradually merged the customs of the two festivals and unified them into the Qingming Festival.
In addition, there are two other theories about the origin of Qingming Festival:
one,
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Wen of Jin, Chong'er, was in exile. He was tired and hungry on the way. His attendant Jie Zitui cut a piece of meat from his thigh and cooked soup for Chong'er. Chong'er was grateful when he heard about it.
After Duke Wen of Jin ascended the throne, he forgot Jie Zitui when he rewarded his ministers. However, Jie Zitui was not interested in fame and fortune and lived in seclusion in Mianshan. Chong'er regretted it so much that he wanted to invite Chong'er to leave Mianshan, but he was unable to do so.
In order to force Chong'er to leave, Duke Wen of Jin burned Mianshan Mountain in search of him. Later, he found Jie Zitui dead under a withered willow tree with his old mother on his back. He left a last message: "I cut my flesh to serve you with all my heart. I hope you will always be clear-minded."
In order to commemorate Jie Zitui, the heartbroken Duke Wen of Jin designated that day as the Cold Food Festival. The next year, Duke Wen of Jin went up the mountain to pay tribute, and the willow tree unexpectedly came back to life. He then named the old willow tree "Qingming Willow" and designated the day after Cold Food Festival as Qingming. two,
At the end of the Qin Dynasty, Liu Bang finally defeated the Overlord and won the world.
When Liu Bang returned home in glory, he wanted to visit his parents' tomb to pay homage, but due to years of war, the tombs were overgrown with weeds, making it impossible for him to find his parents' tombs.
Liu Bang was very sad. Although his subordinates helped him search all the tombstones, they still couldn't find his parents' grave until dusk. Finally, Liu Bang took out paper from his sleeve, tore it into many small pieces, held them tightly in his hand, and then prayed to God, "If my parents are in heaven, I will throw these pieces of paper into the air. If the pieces of paper fall in a place where the wind cannot blow them away, that must be my parents' grave." After that, Liu Bang threw the pieces of paper into the air, and sure enough, a piece of paper fell on a grave. No matter how hard the wind blew, it could not move. Liu Bang ran over and took a closer look at the blurry tombstone, and sure enough, he saw his parents' names engraved on it.
Later, ordinary people, like Liu Bang, would go to their ancestors' tombs to worship on Qingming Festival every year, and would press a few pieces of paper on the tombs with small lumps of earth to indicate that the tombs had been visited by someone.
