How much do you know about the stories and proverbs about solar terms in beginning of autumn?

It is said that one of the soldiers under General Chang Yuchun stole a cantaloupe from a farmer after Xu Da, the general of Ming Dynasty, laid down Beiping House, the capital of Yuan Dynasty. Chang Yuchun is very strict with soldiers, and soldiers who steal melons should be put to death. At this time, the peasants came out and said that there was a custom in the Yuan Dynasty, and it was not stealing for beginning of autumn to pick melons. Chang Yuchun pardoned the soldiers.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the melon pickers in beginning of autumn were innocent, other soldiers began to snatch melons. In order to reward soldiers, Chang Yuchun found a substitute for autumn fertilizer-the only eggplant with meat and meat flavor among vegetables. Therefore, the custom of eating eggplant in beginning of autumn has been passed down.

In Laixi, Shandong Province, beginning of autumn is popular to eat "dregs", which is a kind of small tofu made of tofu and vegetables. There is a saying that "adults and children don't spit or pull after eating beginning of autumn dregs". So many dietary customs are mostly aimed at preventing dysentery, which shows that workers in China are aware of autumn diarrhea.
