The story of the origin of rain is simple.

The story of the origin of rain is very short. There are 20 solar terms in China, and each solar term has its own unique characteristics and significance. Rain is one of the 24 solar terms. Many people don't know the origin of rain. The following is a short story about the origin of rain.

The story of the origin of rain is simple. 1 Rain is the second of the 24 solar terms. Every February 18 or so, when the longitude of the sun reaches 330 degrees, it is the rain of 24 solar terms. At this time, the temperature rises, the snow melts and the precipitation increases, hence the name rain. The rain solar term generally starts from February 18 or 19 and ends on March 4 or 5. Rain, like Grain Rain, light snow and heavy snow, is a solar term reflecting precipitation.

Twenty-four solar terms: "In the first month, water is born every day. Spring belongs to wood, but rain will come from wood. So, it began to rain in beginning of spring. If the east wind melts, it will disperse into rain. " It means that everything begins to sprout before and after the rain and solar terms, and spring is coming. For example, Yizhoushu has phenological records such as "Hongyan coming" and "vegetation sprouting" after the rain.

In ancient China, rainwater was divided into three stages: "One stage was that Rex sacrificed fish; Second, wait for Hongyan to come; Third-class grass sprouted. " In this solar term, otters start fishing and put the fish on the shore like sacrifices before eating; Five days later, the geese began to fly back to the north from the south; In five days, in the "moist and silent" spring rain, the spirit of the sun rises everywhere in the vegetation and begins to sprout. Since then, the earth has gradually begun to show a thriving scene.

The story of rain and solar terms

As farmers' friends who mainly work in agriculture, they are concerned about how to grasp the key season of "one year's plan lies in spring", carry out spring ploughing, spring planting and spring management, and realize the wish of "planting a drop in spring and harvesting ten thousand kinds in autumn".

As far as the field is concerned, before and after the "rain", rape and winter wheat will generally turn green and grow, and the demand for water is relatively large. However, in North China, Northwest China and Huanghuai areas, the precipitation is generally less at this time, which often cannot meet the needs of crops. If there is little rain in early spring, spring irrigation before and after the "rain" can achieve better results, that is, "spring rain (water) is as expensive as oil"

At the same time, in the rainy season, for those lands that have not been ploughed in autumn, especially hard stubble lands such as grain stubble and rice stubble, it is necessary to take advantage of the opportunity of thawing to mop the stubble land with a pull (a tool for dragging stubble in rural areas, made of strips or branches), or press the stubble with a roller, and then drag it down for rolling, which can not only ensure the sowing quality, but also achieve the effect of drought resistance and moisture conservation. In the area south of Huaihe River, there is usually a lot of rain at this time, so it is necessary to do a good job in clearing ditches and draining farmland, weeding in intertillage and so on to prevent wet damage and rotten roots. Seedling raising of double cropping rice and early rice in South China has started. In order to prevent the harm of cold and hot weather to seedlings, we should pay attention to the "cold tail and warm head" weather, seize the sunny day to sow and strive to protect seedlings.

The story of the origin of rain is simple. 2 Legend of the origin of rain solar terms

Rain is the second of the 24 solar terms. Every year around the 15th day of the first month (February 18-20 in Gregorian calendar), when the longitude of the sun reaches 330 degrees, it is the rain of 24 solar terms. At this time, the temperature rises, the snow melts and the precipitation increases, hence the name rain. Generally, the rainy and rainy solar term begins on February 18 or 19 of Gregorian calendar and ends on March 4 or 5. Rain, like Grain Rain, light snow and heavy snow, is a solar term reflecting precipitation.

The direct point of the sun is approaching the equator from the southern hemisphere. At this time, in the northern hemisphere, the sunshine hours and intensity are increasing, the temperature is rising rapidly, and the warm and humid air from the ocean is becoming active and gradually moving northward. At the same time, cold air is not to be outdone in the weakening trend, and it frequently competes with warm air, unwilling to quit its hegemony and refuse to take away the residual cold.

Twenty-four solar terms: "In the first month, water is born every day. Spring belongs to wood, but those who grow wood must have water, so there is rain in beginning of spring. " Now that the east wind has thawed, it will turn into rain. "It means that everything begins to sprout before and after the rain and solar terms, and spring is coming. Rain means that it begins to rain, and the rainfall gradually increases. Rain has two meanings, one is that the weather gets warmer and the precipitation increases gradually, and the other is that there is less snow and more rain.

After the "rain", the temperature in most parts of China rose to above 0℃, the daily average temperature in Huanghuai Plain reached about 3℃, the average temperature in Jiangnan was about 5℃, the temperature in South China was above 10℃, and the average temperature in North China was still below 0℃.

Before and after rainfall, rape and winter wheat generally turn green and grow, which requires high water content. "Spring rain is as expensive as oil". At this time, suitable precipitation is particularly important for crops.

Rainy season gourmet

Lantern Festival coincides with the rainy season, and every household makes Yuanxiao. There used to be a saying that "lanterns hang high, lanterns hang high". Yuanxiao is also called Zi Yuan and Tuanzi. Because it floats on the noodle soup after cooking, it is also called "glutinous rice balls" and "floating rice balls". Eating Yuanxiao sounds like "Tuan" and "Yuan", which means reunion. Yuanxiao, as a seasonal food, is said to have started in the Jin Dynasty and flourished in the Tang and Song Dynasties. There is a record in Chronicle of Jingchu Times that "soybean oil cake was made on the fifteenth day of the first month". This kind of bean paste cake is the predecessor of Yuanxiao. In the Tang Dynasty, it was called "prison in soup" or "powder fruit". Before the Song Dynasty, few people chanted Yuanxiao. In the Song Dynasty, Zhou Bida once said in the sequel to the Plain: "Yuanxiao cooks floating dumplings, but it seems that the predecessors have never given this ..."

"There is a poem by Jiang Baishi in the Song Dynasty:" A guest looks at the street with a hook curtain, and the treasures in the city come at once. There is no way in front of the curtain, and money cannot be returned. " The "treasure" in the poem refers to Yuanxiao. In the Song Dynasty, there was a custom to put "lactose, sand dumplings, ten kinds of sugar, etc.". "On New Year's Eve, I put a faceplate on the site to support my car, and I inserted a red lampshade with moths in the bushes. This song is called Noisy Worship. " (Song Zhou Mi's "Old Wulin Stories") Yuanxiao was put in a golden plate and fed in a fine box, which was called "food combination", showing the preciousness at that time.

Li, a poet in the Qing Dynasty, once wrote: "The Lantern Festival competes to see the lotus boat, and the BMW car takes over;" On a stormy night, people go to the empty building, and the lonely lamp still calls for selling dumplings. " . This shows the lively scene of the ancient Lantern Festival. Women often squeeze hairpins to the ground in the crowd. In Song Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty, there were "people holding small lights to illuminate the way to pick up the remains", which was called "sweeping the street". When you leave the bait behind, you often get it. So is Du Dong's legacy. "

In the long river of years, China North-South Lantern Festival has developed from various local flavors to characteristics. In addition to sugar, sweet-scented osmanthus, nuts and sesame seeds, the stuffing of Yuanxiao can also be fresh meat, ham and shrimp. Ningbo's glutinous rice balls can be described as "famous at home and abroad", soft and oily, waxy but not greasy. Anhui Anqing Tangyuan is famous for its delicious soup, which is sweet and delicious. The most famous ones in Chengdu are "Laitangyuan" and "Guotangyuan", whose varieties and tastes are quite different from those in other places. There are eight kinds of fillings: sesame, bean paste, horse history, peanut, crystal, rock sugar, cherry and rose. "Ge Fen Zi Yuan" and "Tang Gong Zi Yuan" are top jiaozi.

"I miss my relatives on holidays." When people celebrate the Lantern Festival, they often think of the folk song "Selling Tangyuan" in Taiwan Province Province: "A bowl of soup is perfect and full, and eating it is a good reunion". Let's wish the overseas Chinese a happy holiday, get together at an early date and share the joy of the Lantern Festival.

Brief introduction to the story of the origin of rain 3 The story of Yula Platini:

"La michel platini" is a primitive way of making friends, which is popular in many places in Baoshan. From the perspective of folklore, the formation of this custom is related to backward social production and people's "help-seeking psychology" when they encounter difficulties, so it is most common in mountainous areas with vast territory, few people, few doctors and medicines and simple folk customs.

In the mountainous areas such as Wayao, Wama and Wafang in Baoshan, there are usually two ways to "pull" michel platini. One is to determine the object and get married through consultation. When the dolls in the mountains can run, parents will show their wishes to acquaintances in neighboring villages. If the other party agrees, choose an auspicious day to kill chickens in cook the meat, invite relatives and friends, kowtow and name them, and complete all the formalities of "naming". It is said that once the doll is "adopted" by michel platini, it will not be her own son once her surname and first name are changed. Even if there are some misfortunes in her life, it will be solved.

What's interesting is another way to "pull"? "resigned, forced to pull." Marriage in this way can only be from the second day of the New Year to the Lantern Festival. People who want to "pull michel platini" often choose double dates, and men bring roosters, bacon and other foods. Before dawn, they crossed a thin white line in the narrow road outside the village where pedestrians must pass, and then ambushed nearby: whoever passed by here and tripped over the white line was regarded as in-laws, and the ambush rushed out, bowed and shouted "in-laws." "God's will" is hard to violate. Under normal circumstances, newcomers can only promise, otherwise they will be accused. So I buried the pot to cook and had a picnic on the spot. After eating and drinking enough, go to the village to "recognize the door" and hold a sacrificial ceremony. If the newcomer is a woman, of course, it is a "godmother"; If unmarried, they are "brothers", "sisters", "brothers" and "sisters"; If you happen to meet cows, horses, sheep, dogs, etc. You will also be dragged by its owner to fulfill all the formalities and obligations, but the name must be based on the name of the tripped animal, such as the horse and dog.

Whether people choose it intentionally or are determined by "fate", once the godmother is formed, the two sides take care of each other like a family, visit each other in time during New Year's Day and New Year's Day, treat each other like brothers, live in harmony and even love each other from generation to generation. This is a much-told story.

What's even more amazing is that in some mountainous areas of Tengchong County, there is a custom of "pulling out" a big tree as "michel platini". Many people worship a strange tree as "michel platini" since childhood, because their parents believe that the ancient trees are towering and deeply rooted, and once they are worshipped as "michel platini", they can bless the dolls to live a long life. Especially devout people should also ask the clergy to help them calculate whether the tree is willing to accept it. If so, they have to choose an auspicious day to burn incense, worship three times and knock nine times before they can be considered as "human trunk relatives." Finally, we have to give the child a name with branches and leaves. Because this custom has a long history, many well-known ancient trees in Tengchong, such as the Leida tree in the brook, the orange tree in Heshun, the goose feather tree in Mazhan and the Ginkgo King in Mazhan, are bustling, with many "adopted sons" and "adopted daughters" who are alive or long gone, and many of them are.
