Interpretation of "Don't bring cotton on the solstice of summer"

There is no cotton in summer until the sun: you don't have to take a cotton-padded jacket out to do farm work in summer until the sun.

It is a common saying that people in Northeast China don't take cotton during the summer solstice. Even in the long summer, the weather in the northeast is relatively cool, unlike in the south, where summer has already begun. Therefore, before the summer solstice, Northeast China has the habit of going out to work and taking a cotton-padded jacket to keep warm. On the solstice of summer, when the temperature rises, there is no need for a cotton-padded jacket. There is a saying that there is no cotton on the solstice of summer.

The summer solstice is usually celebrated on June 2 1~22 of the Gregorian calendar. Like the winter solstice, the summer solstice is also a solar term reflecting the changes of the four seasons. In the future, the temperature will continue to rise, so there is a saying that the summer solstice is not too hot.
