Five papers on many species in the twenty-four solar terms

1. Composition about the 24 solar terms.

"Mangzhong" is the ninth of the 24 solar terms. It is said that mango seed season is the busiest time of the year. There is a saying in the agricultural proverb: "Mango is sown, and it is harvested with seeds". At this time, crops with awns, such as barley and wheat, are ripe and should be busy harvesting; At the same time, summer crops such as millet should be sown at this time, so "awn seed" is also called "busy planting", which means "busy planting", so some people say: "awn seed, everything is busy." Of course, I'm not too clear about this knowledge related to agriculture, just parroting.

Speaking of the Ear Festival, I am familiar with a description in A Dream of Red Mansions, so I will tell you the story of the Ear Festival in A Dream of Red Mansions.

It was the 27th episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, "Miss Yang was playing butterflies in Didi Cuiting, burying a fragrant grave and flying swallows to cry", and in this episode, the author wrote: "This day is not over yet. Ancient custom: On the day of Harvest Festival, various gifts should be placed to offer sacrifices to the flower god. It is said that it will be summer after mango, all the flowers will be unloaded, and the flower god will abdicate and have to say goodbye. This custom is more popular in boudoir, so people in Grand View Garden get up early. Those girls weave sedan-chair horses with petals and willow branches, or fold silk brocade into dry buildings and tie them with colored threads. These things are tied to every tree and flower. Embroidered ribbons are flying and flowers are in full bloom in the garden. What's more, these people are all peaches and apricots, and the shame of the orioles. "

This morning, the girls and daughters-in-law were all dressed up, and the whole Grand View Garden was very lively. Baochai, Sanchun, Li Wan, Xifeng, Qiaojie, Xiangling and other maids were all playing in the garden. When Sister Lin was not seen, Sister Baochai volunteered to go to Xiaoxiang Pavilion to find her. Because I saw Baoyu going to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, I was afraid that going in at this time would arouse Daiyu's suspicion. Let's first look at what the book says: "I suddenly saw a pair of jade butterflies, as big as a round fan, flying up and down in the wind, which was very interesting." Baochai wanted to jump in and play, so she took out her fan from her sleeve and jumped on the grass. I saw a pair of butterflies coming and going, covered with willows, trying to cross the river. Baochai was led backwards and crept all the way to the Didi Pavilion in the pool, sweating and panting. "

"Spring rains shake the valley, summer is full and summer is hot ..." Early June is the season of awnings, and it is also the busiest time for everyone in rural areas.

As soon as the rooster crowed, the whole countryside began to get busy. Get up, brush your teeth, eat ... It's a sunny summer morning. I looked at the door and saw the blue sky, fresh green ... On the way to school, I was in high spirits, but I had mixed feelings because I saw a picture condensed by Sunshine: uncle farmer, barefoot, stepping into the dark swamp, holding green seedlings in his hand, stepping step by step, spreading hope. Everything is going on nervously. I don't know how many days this operation lasted. ...

One evening in mid-June, the sun in the west gradually set, and the summer after dinner was cool and comfortable. The whole village is cool and quiet. I walked alone in the field path. What a good way to understand! I looked around. The rippling sea is the most beautiful poem in this land. The villages in the distance are all hidden in the green fog, and there is only pure youth and happiness in their hearts.

I went to school almost every day in those days. I quietly watched how sacred they were. The food served on the table again and again feels more and more precious. This is really a busy season! In this busy era, there is such a "busy" person. More and more people realize that mango is busy, so it is difficult to understand the unique beauty of mango in nature.

The green field behind the scenes has the initial prosperity of life. Everything is as natural as running water, growing in the rain and maturing in the sun, just like the song "Plant 10 thousand lotus flowers, sprout among all beings, and wait for 10 thousand answers in the world of mortals." Let's wait for the seedlings to grow. ...

3. Composition about the 24 solar terms.

The ninth of the 24 solar terms falls on June 5 or 6; It shows that summer harvest (mature awn wheat crop) is a busy season for summer sowing.

The literal meaning of awn seed is "the wheat with awn is harvested quickly, and the rice with awn can be planted".

"Miscanthus", also known as "busy planting" and "busy planting", is the sowing of farmers' friends. The arrival of "Mangzi" indicates that farmers have started their busy field life. Mango is a very busy solar term. Shaanxi, Gansu and Ningxia are "busy planting seeds and breeding them in the summer to the valley of the sun". Guangdong is "the awn is planted and the summer heat is heavy (referring to transplanted plants again)". Jiangxi is "no seedling three days before planting, no seedling three days after planting". Guizhou is "it is useless to plant awns if you don't plant them." Fujian is "planting awn, good indica rice, super awn and good glutinous rice". Jiangsu is "the mountain is the treasure, and the summer solstice is the grass". Shanxi is "mango, mango, everything". "Millet is urgently planted in the valley". Sichuan and Shaanxi are "busy farmers in front of the tent and busy planting beans behind the tent". As can be seen from the above farming, China is busy planting crops from south to north through the ear planting festival, and the busy farming season has reached a climax.

Spring rain shocks spring and clear valley days, summer is full of mountains and summer is connected with heat, autumn dew is cold and frost, and winter snow drifts. Among the 24 solar terms, my name is Mangzhong, ranking ninth in my family.

Mango seeds are the busiest season of the year. "awn" refers to the harvesting of plants with awns such as wheat, such as barley and wheat, which begin to mature and are about to be harvested; "Planting" refers to the sowing of millet crops. Mango is also called "busy planting", and some people say that "mango is busy with everything."

In order to welcome my arrival, the farmer's uncle worked hard in the scorching sun, and the sweat as big as beans dripped into the soil from his forehead, watering the happy flowers. They bent down to cut wheat and occasionally looked up at the endless wheat fields, smiling at their mouths. Following their eyes, I saw what the poem often said: "The fields are busy cutting, and the farmers are sickle." Listen! The farmer's uncle sang a harvest song, and the golden ears of wheat rustled, and the song and the rustling of wheat ears mixed together to form a beautiful symphony, which spread all over the field.

Now all the children know me!

Xiaoman has just passed, and he is busy. The arrival of the solar term "ear planting" has also brought great happiness and new hope to farmers. The happy event is the bumper harvest of summer grain every year, and the new hope is to start summer sowing at the same time of summer harvest. The busyness in the field always presents a new pursuit of new hope after harvest.

As a native city resident, I have hardly felt the special importance of the solar term "mango" since childhood. Recently, my understanding of "mango" comes from a book "Twenty-four Solar Terms", which describes the season of "mango" affectionately, inadvertently reminding me of the white bread we usually eat, which is the fruitful fruit harvested by farmers with sweat.

In my spare time during the holiday, I came to the outskirts of the city and felt the sun burning and dazzling light shining on the earth. I saw the ears of wheat in the fields like the sea, and the golden ears of wheat in Huang Chengcheng fluttered with the wind, as if welcoming me. At that moment, my heart was full of rain and I was moved by the scene of bumper harvest. At this time, I suddenly remembered the scene of living in my grandmother's house in the countryside when I was a child. I can vividly see the scene of my parents waving sickles on the loess back, but today, decades later, what I see is the joy that the combine harvester brings to farmers by shuttling back and forth in the wheat field. With the rumble of the combine harvester, the wheat in Huang Chengcheng entered the belly of the machine, and the yellow wheat grains at the edge of the field burst out of the belly of the machine and were put into the bags that farmers had already prepared.

In the harvested wheat fields, the sound of machines is still rumbling, which is the sound of farmers plowing the fields with tractors. I saw that the loess turned up at this time, and the water evaporated instantly in the summer sun. On the ploughed land, I saw another tractor with a disc harrow. Behind this agricultural machinery, several farmers' brothers drove seeders to sow seeds. Seeing this scene, I suddenly realized that they were sowing the hope of the future, "ears and grains"
