Grain Rain and the cuckoo.

China people think that "rain gives birth to hundreds of valleys". One of the most important phenology at this time is that the cuckoo begins to sing. Its cry is not only "Goo Goo", but also "Grandparents, cut wheat and grain". Therefore, our ancestors called this solar term Grain Rain.

Now we can hardly hear the cry of "goo goo goo", but here comes Grain Rain.

Grain Rain is the last solar term in spring among the 24 solar terms, and it is also the only solar term closely corresponding to phenology, seasons and farming. The solar terms in Grain Rain are very beneficial to the growth of cereal crops. Interestingly, this time is the time when seedlings and new crops are planted in the south of the Yangtze River, and the rain is most needed, and there is more rain at this time. The first heavy rain usually occurs at this time, which is beneficial to rice planting and seedling growth of corn and cotton.

It's Grain Rain season again, and catkins are flying.

Cuckoo crows at night,

Peony spits, cherry is red and ripe.

……

The natural scenery tells us that it is late spring.

The following is a poem about Grain Rain.

Thank you for the tea.

Tang Dynasty

Grain Rain in front of Chunshan, picking cigarettes.

It is difficult to fill a cage when it is young, and it is easy to be late.

And invited guests from neighboring hospitals to try to cook the spring flowers.

The land is far away and tired, and the next year comes without coming.
