What's the difference between thrift and harmony?

Hello, solar terms refer to festivals and solar terms, such as: easy festivals in cold and summer. -"Liezi Tang Wen"; Since ancient times, feelings of sadness and parting are even more worthy of being left out in the cold. -Liu Song Yong's "Yuling Cold".

The word "Qi" was first seen in Oracle Bone Inscriptions in Shang Dynasty, and its ancient form imitated the appearance of clouds and qi. The original meaning of qi is the third-state substance that spreads evenly in nature.

"Qi" later refers to all gases. The evaporation of water vapor on the ground rises to form clouds, and the accumulation of clouds and gases reduces the rain on which everything depends. Sometimes there is a gentle and violent wind, and we can't feel the change and flow of gas everywhere. When the weather gets cold, the air gets cold. The flow of qi brings the fragrance of flowers and plants in the distance. Therefore, "Qi" also implies weather, climate, smell and other meanings.
