Has the willow sprouted?

"Spring thunder rings, everything grows", and it is a fine sunny day in September, with the temperature rising and the rain increasing. At this time, the temperature rose rapidly, and spring thunder gradually appeared in most areas of the Yangtze River basin, which could be heard in most areas. After the "shocking" solar term, the warm and humid air mass in the south began to be active, the temperature rose obviously, trees along the Huaihe River began to sprout and grow, and spring-sown crops began to be sown.

There is a folk custom of "eating pears in surprise". Raw pears are sweet in taste, cold in nature, slightly sour and juicy, and have the effects of moistening the lungs and relieving cough, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst, nourishing yin and clearing heat. Liver qi is strong in spring, which is easy to hurt the spleen. Eating raw pears tonifies the spleen, and people are like natural nectar, which calms the nerves. The ancients regarded the white tiger as the king of beasts, which could drive away evil spirits and all kinds of injuries. Every year, they worship the white tiger on the day of fright to drive away all kinds of insects and avoid pests. Stir-frying soybeans and sesame seeds in a pot is called "popping longan", which means praying for good weather. Just after the 24 solar terms were awakened, plants sprouted and blossomed one after another, decorating this season of "the revival of all things". The picture shows that the willows on the edge of wanquan town People's Park are sprouting, and the whole willow branch is covered with buds, flying in the wind, showing people the breath of spring.
