=== In Chinese literature === A long tradition of common carp exists in Chinese culture and literature. A popular lyric circulating as early as 2,000 years ago in the late [[Han period]] includes an anecdote which relates how a man far away from home sent back to his wife a pair of carp ({{zh|s=ι²€ι±Ό|p=Liyu}}), in which, when the wife opened the fish to cook, she found a silk strip that carried a love note of just two lines: "Eat well to keep fit, missing you and forget me not".
