Where is the custom of beating eggs in the long summer?

Beating eggs in long summer is a custom in Zhejiang, mainly for children to spend the summer safely. Fighting eggs means that after eggs and duck eggs are cooked, the egg head is on the egg head and the egg tail is on the egg tail. Until one side hits the shell, the egg king finally wins, and the broken eggs can be eaten publicly.

The long summer:

Long summer is the seventh of the 24 solar terms and the first in summer. Long summer indicates the change of seasons and the official start of midsummer season. When the sun reaches 45 degrees of the yellow meridian, it is a long summer, usually on May 5 or 6 of the Gregorian calendar every year. After the long summer, the temperature in southern China rose rapidly, and the rainfall and days of rainfall increased significantly.
