"Good rain knows the season, when spring is happening"
Today, we usher
In the year of the tiger in the twenty-four solar terms
The second solar term – rain
The east wind warms up and everything recovers
A gentle drizzle moisturizes everything
The "Seventy-two Waiting Solutions to the Moon Order" has clouds: "In the middle of the first month." The water of the day is born, the spring begins with the wood, and the wood that grows will also be water, so the rain will follow after the spring, and the east wind will thaw, then it will scatter into the rain. "As the warm spring breeze wakes up the earth, the snow melts, the temperature rises, the air becomes moist, and the rain gradually increases.
On February 13, in Xilong Village, Wutang Town, Xingning District, Nanning City, Guangxi Province, cauliflowers in the rain were filled with crystalline water droplets.
Taking five days as a wait, the ancients divided the rain into three seasons: "one waits for otters to sacrifice fish; the second waits for geese to wait for the north; and three wait for grass and trees to sprout." "During the rainy season, the spring river is warm, the fish perceive the water temperature upstream, the otters will place the fish neatly on the shore after feeding, the ancients believe that it is in the "fish sacrifice water"; the geese that fly south through the winter, after perceiving the spring letter, cross thousands of mountains and rivers and return to their hometown; in the spring rain, the grass and trees pull out young buds and break the soil.

Of course not
Romance unique to Northeasterners
Well, on this day of rain
What kind of folklore do you have?
【Busy farming】
With the arrival of the rainy season, the cold and snowy winter in most parts of the country has passed, and the rainfall has begun and gradually increased, which has an important impact on agricultural production. The farmer proverb said: "The rain has rain and the crops are good, and the big spring and the small spring are a treasure." In the south, the rain festival is known as the "arable weather", and agricultural activities such as spring ploughing, spring irrigation, sowing, seedlings, fertilization, antifreeze, and grafting of fruit trees will be carried out one after another.
【Diligence and health】
With the increase of rainfall, the humidity increases, which is easy to plague the spleen and stomach, so we must pay attention to the maintenance of the spleen and stomach during this period. Sun Simiao of the Tang Dynasty said: "It is advisable to eat porridge in spring." "Remind us that we should drink more porridge in the spring, which is convenient for absorption, but also can nourish the spleen and stomach, and go to turbidity." In addition, pay attention to the warmth of the legs and feet, use less cold water, and eat less cold food.
【Back to the Mother's House】
Huiniangya is a custom popular in the western Sichuan region. In the rainy season, the married daughters have brought gifts back to their mother's home to visit their parents and thank their parents for their nurturing grace. The son-in-law should bring cans of meat, chairs and other gifts to send a festival to his father-in-law and mother-in-law, called "receiving life", to express his gratitude to his father-in-law and mother-in-law who have worked hard to raise their daughters to adulthood.
【Bump bye】
In some places, the rain festival is a very humane day. In western Sichuan, at dawn in the morning, some young women stand on the side of the road with their children in their arms, waiting for the first pedestrian to pass in front of them. When someone passes by, both men and women, young and old, will stop each other, let the young children kowtow and send, and give each other a dry son or dry daughter, called "bumping and sending", hoping that the child can grow up healthily.
