Busy growing what to eat?

The solar terms of mango are suitable for drinking tea and eating green plums.

1, have tea

In order to welcome the solar term of mango, Jiangxi, China also has the custom of drinking tea in the solar term of mango. It is said that drinking tea in mango can ensure that you won't feel sleepy all summer. Drinking tea properly will really keep you awake, but it's a bit difficult to ensure that you won't feel sleepy all summer. Therefore, drinking tea when planting awns only represents a good wish of people.

2, green plum

In the south, May and June are the season when plums ripen, and there is an allusion of "Plum Boils Wine as a Hero" in the Three Kingdoms. Plums contain a variety of natural high-quality organic acids and rich minerals, and many people like to eat plums very much. It should be noted that fresh plums are sour and not easy to eat. They need to be processed before they can be eaten.

The custom of mango seeds

1, Flower God: In ancient times, the flower festival on the second day of the second lunar month greeted the flower god. It's nearly May, and the flowers are beginning to fade. People often hold a ceremony of offering sacrifices to the flower god on Ear Seed Day to send the flower god back to his place, and at the same time express gratitude to the flower god, hoping to meet again next year.

2. Tillage Festival: In some areas of Zhejiang, there is a "Tillage Festival", which is held on the day of the canopy. There is a local legend that cows are grass officials in the sky. Because of sympathy for human famine, they secretly planted grass seeds, and as a result, weeds grew wildly, and farmland was flooded with weeds, so farmers could not cultivate. In order to punish this cow, God ordered it to go down to plow the fields until today.
