What do you mean by "three stages of villains" and what do "three stages of villains" stand for respectively?

1. In ancient China, Xiaoman was divided into three stages: "Waiting for the bitter vegetable show, waiting for the grass to wither, and waiting for the wheat autumn." In other words, after the full solar terms, bitter vegetables have flourished; After that, some soft grass with shady branches began to die in the strong sunlight; In the last period of Xiaoman, wheat began to mature.

2, bitter vegetable show: "Ya Ya" takes tea as a bitter vegetable. Shi Mao said, "Who says tea is bitter?" Yeah, yeah. Bao said, "It is bitter to feel the gas of fire." Er Ya said, "Those who are disrespectful and dishonest are called beautiful, and those who are disrespectful and dishonest are called English." This bitter dish should be said in English. Cai Yong's "Moon Order" refers to a little bitter walking with a stem.

3, grass pawn: Zheng Kangcheng, Bao Jingxiang are all clouds: grass, genus. Note in the Book of Rites: "The branches and leaves of the grass are not fine." Fang said: "Everything born in the sun is strong; Those who are born with yin are soft and unyielding. " It is said that grass destroys people and is born in yin, and it is impossible to die in yang.

4. Mai Qiuzhi: It turned out to be Xiao Xia, and later "gold" was changed to Mai Qiuzhi. "Moon Order": "Wheat autumn to April; The summer of solstice is in May. Xiaoman is in the middle of April, so it's easy. Autumn, a hundred valleys mature, this is summer, and the wheat is autumn, so it is also the cloud of wheat autumn. "

Extended data:

At night, the warbler sings green willows, and the bright moon wakes up in the sky. I love long-headed wheat most, and I laugh in the wind.
