The small flower spikes are white with a little yellowish, like shiny embroidery needles, and the breeze blows lightly, sending a faint fragrance. The thin and weak wheat flowers dance softly, and the beautiful and lovely style blooms on the wheat fields like green waves, which will eventually give birth to golden harvests.
Have you ever seen a wheat blossom? Have you ever smelled the sweet and fragrant smell of wheat blossoms? Such small, simple, plain crops and flowers bloom quietly on the endless fields of the hometown, evoking nostalgia and infinite nostalgia.
Wheat flowers are the flowers of winter wheat. In the "Twenty-Four Flower Trade Winds", the flower trade wind represented by the second season of the Qingming Festival is the wheat flower known as "lightening and fine" and "ten thousand acres of snow light". On the node of the small spikes of wheat turquoise, it blooms several small flower spikes with fine fragments, white with a little yellow, like a shiny embroidery needle, and the breeze blows lightly, sending a faint fragrance. Wheat flower is an amphoteric flower, stamens, pistils grow on a wheat plant, it is not only small, its flowering period is also very short, each small flower blooms for more than ten minutes to half an hour, the entire flowering period is only three or four days, is the shortest life expectancy of the crop flowers.

In the rolling blue wheat waves, the small wheat blossoms bloom small freshness and open up a bright and poetic feeling. Du Fu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, described a rural style painting in the poem "For The Farmer" in the poem": "Outside the smoke and dust in Jinli, there are eight or nine homes in Jiangcun." Round lotus floating leaflets, fine wheat falling light flowers. The Southern Song Dynasty pastoral poet Fan Chengda's "Early Summer" wrote: "The shadow of the acacia at the head of the Yongri house is dark, and the wheat flowers in the micro fan are fragrant." "The long summer is coming, the old locust trees in the small courtyard are densely leafy, shading the cool side, and the breeze blows the aroma of wheat blossoms, which is pleasant. The Southern Song Dynasty poet Wang Mai saw the countryside scenery in the late spring and could not help but praise: "When the mulberries are ripe, the doves call the rain, and the wheat flowers are yellow and the swallows turn the wind." The most favorite poet Dong Sigao of the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty wrote a poem "Wheat Flower", which has a sentence: "Lighten the fine and detailed compound yiyi, not to mention the two branches of qingyingxiu." Ten thousand acres of snow smoke summer, one day green waves in autumn. "The thin and weak wheat flowers dance softly, and the delicate and pleasant style is more than one branch or two branches, they are like small snowflakes, blooming on the wheat fields like green waves, and will eventually give birth to golden harvests."
The most popular person with the aroma of wheat blossoms is my old father. He lived in remote Xinjiang for most of his life and was a farmer and reclamation soldier in the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. A generation of them took root in the frontier and built the frontier, turning the Thousand Mile Gobi Desert into a rice and grain river with rolling wheat waves and fragrant grain and oil. When his father retired to his hometown, he was still inseparable from the land, and he could not smell the fragrant wheat flowers in his spleen, and he worked hard in the yellow land, planted grain and vegetables, and lived a self-sufficient and idyllic life. In late spring and early summer, my father's favorite thing to do is to hold the small hands of his grandchildren, go to the wheat field to see the growth of wheat, admire the green and beautiful fragrance of wheat ears and wheat flowers, and teach and sing his self-composed nursery rhymes: "The valley rains, the wheat seedlings laugh, and the green ears are high and the wheat flowers flutter." Wheat flowers are white, wheat flowers are yellow, and wheat flowers are fragrant in my hometown..." He smiled and told his grandson: "Look at the wheat flowers are not small, but if you go up and smell them, can you smell the fragrance of the big white steamed buns and big cakes?" ”
The second sister of the neighbor's family is called Mai Hua, and she stands tall like a stalk of wheat. She loves to laugh, and there is the sweet smell of wheat blossoms in her smile. After graduating from the Wheat Flower Farmers University, he gave up the rich life in the big city, resolutely returned to his hometown, became a rural agricultural technician, and went in the wind and rain for many years, guiding agricultural production in ten miles and eight townships and fields, and providing scientific and technological services for the villagers to grow wheat and grain. As time went on, her face became a wheat-colored glowing with sunshine. Mai Hua often said that like Grandpa Yuan Longping, we should make a good seed in the crop field, bloom small flowers, bear large fruits, and realize the "dream of cooling under the grass".
As the saying goes: "Peony flowers are empty, and wheat flowers are slightly solid." "Yes, the wheat flower is small, too small to be remarkable, but it has bred thousands of plump wheat seeds and filled our tall granaries." With grain in hand, there is no panic in the heart. "With wheat and rice, we can walk down to earth and have infinite power!" (Originally published on the fourth page of the Grain and Oil Market Newspaper on April 21, 2022)
