When the south wind blows across the fields with a humid and hot breath, when the plums on the branches turn from green to yellow, and when the wheat in the north turns golden and gradually matures in the summer breeze, we usher in the third solar term of summer - Grain in Ear.
What is "Mang Zhong"? The Chinese pinyin is "Mang Zhong"
"Mang" refers to grains with thorns, such as wheat and rice; "Zhong" means sowing. This is a solar term name full of power and hope. It accurately describes the most distinctive feature of this season: "Harvest wheat with awns quickly, and plant rice with awns quickly." On one side, the golden wheat waves are waiting to be harvested and stored, and on the other side, the tender green seedlings are waiting to be planted in paddy fields.
Farmers race against time and play a busy symphony of rushing to harvest and plant on the vast land. Therefore, Grain in Ear is also figuratively called busy planting, which is one of the most tense and critical seasons in agricultural activities.
Scenes of Grain in Ear:
1. Golden wheat waves: In the north, wheat is ripe and golden, harvesters are roaring, and the joy of harvesting grains is overflowing in the fields.
2. Continuous plum rain: The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River enter the "plum rain" season. The drizzle and mist nourish all things and bring a touch of coolness to the hot summer, but also bring humidity and sultry heat, which is "rain in every household during the yellow plum season".
3. Green rice seedlings and full of water: In the paddy fields in the south, the newly planted rice seedlings quickly turn green under the nourishment of rain. At a glance, it is lush and full of vitality.
Customs of Grain in Ear:
Sending the flower god: The ancients believed that after Grain in Ear, all flowers withered and the flower god abdicated. There is a custom of holding a banquet to send off the flower god on this day to express gratitude to the flower god and cherish the spring.
Cooking plums and tasting new ones: At this time, plums are ripe, but fresh plums are sour and hard to eat. The wise ancients had the custom of "boiling plums", or adding sugar to make candied fruit, or making wine (such as green plum wine), which can both relieve heat and stimulate appetite. The allusion of "discussing heroes over green plum wine" adds a bit of poetry and heroism to the Grain in Ear season.
Praying for the safety of seedlings: Some areas (such as southern Anhui) have "An Miao" sacrificial activities to pray for good weather and good harvests.
Grain in Ear message:
Grain in Ear is the busiest season on earth and the most prosperous season for life. It tells us: One point of hard work, one point of harvest. The joy of summer harvest comes from spring sowing, and the hard sowing at this moment breeds the hope of autumn harvest. This is a profound metaphor about "carrying on the past and ushering in the future".
In the fast-paced modern life, Grain in Ear reminds us: follow the time and seize the present. Whether it is the labor in the fields or the cultivation on the road of life, we need to cherish time and work hard to harvest the heavy golden harvest in our own season.
