In cold days, the north wind blows back and forth. Where does the semi-cyan yellow come from?

Heshui Zuo's solar term poems. Winter has begun.

Beginning of winter is a seven-character quatrain describing the weather, climate, phenology and agricultural production activities in the 24 solar terms of the lunar calendar. This poem describes in a realistic way the cool weather brought by the northwest wind in early winter in China, which makes thousands of trees fall and wither. At the same time, in the vast rural areas in the north and south of China, the working scenes of agricultural products drying and water conservancy project construction abound.

Appreciation of works:

The work describes the cooling weather brought by the northwest wind going back and forth to the south in most parts of China at the beginning of the winter solar term, which makes thousands of trees wither and leaves fly. Rural areas in the south of the Yangtze River are trying to harvest and store crops, and people are building water conservancy and farmland projects.

"The north wind blows for several cold days" means that when the winter solar terms in China begin, the winter in the whole country begins. At this time, the sunshine time will continue to shorten, and the northwest wind at high altitude will come and go, making the climate of the earth cold and cold, especially in the northern region.

"Sparse trees are half green and half yellow" means that trees in most parts of China begin to wither in winter. After the wind and frost in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the green leaves are turning yellow at first glance, and the trees are slowly falling down and obviously sparse. Especially in the north of China, the yellow leaves have fallen off, and the sparse trees are more obvious. Whenever the north wind blows, the treetops sway in the air, with thousands of gestures.

"Flooding on all sides" refers to the scene that when the winter solar term begins, China's crop harvest has been basically completed, and farmers all over the country seize the time to build water conservancy projects and carry out farmland capital construction. They are busy repairing and strengthening dams for flood control, dredging various waterways and building reservoirs to prepare for drought and waterlogging prevention in the coming year and ensure agricultural production and income increase.

Collection of everything. At this time, the residents of thousands of households in urban and rural areas of our country firmly grasp the rare sunshine in winter to bask in food, beans, cotton and other agricultural products and clothing, and collect them for winter, so as to prepare for use this winter, next spring or later.
