At the beginning of early summer, daylilies first bloom, orange and red sprinkled with gold, which is the enthusiasm of summer and the love of mothers.
Daylilies precede all things to welcome the prosperity of summer and resist the fiery sun—just as mothers are always the first to see the sorrow and growth of their children, shielding them from the unease and desolation of the world.
Brilliant daylily flowers, under the North Hall of Luosheng, the wind arrives in May, and the wanderer thinks late: The daylily flowers planted in the North Hall are the gaze of the mother leaning on the door, crossing a thousand mountains and reaching the side of the wanderer.

Daylilies is a perennial herb of the genus Daylilies of the Afu family, with early flowers and late flowers, orange red or orange yellow, flowering from May to July, commonly cultivated throughout China, wild in the provinces south of the Qinling Mountains.
As early as more than 2,000 years ago, there were records of daylilies in the "Book of Poetry", and many later botanical works, such as "Saving the Waste", "Flower Mirror", "Compendium of Materia Medica" and so on.
"Forgetful Grass Fu": "The body is flexible and rigid, and Hui Jie Lanfang." The root of the knot is based on the root, and the spirit is in the green clouds. Shun the yin and yang to nourish the luxuriant, and the smile contains the chapter.
Xiahou Zhan of the Jin Dynasty wrote in "Forgetful Grass Fu" that daylilies are like danxia reflecting the blue sky from afar, and green springs when viewed up close like hibiscus, green leaves, scorching Zhuhua, and other scenery.

Daylilies have bright flowers, delicate flowers, have good ornamental value, have a long history of cultivation in the mainland, and folk planting is very common after the Tang and Song Dynasties, both north and south.
In addition to the ornamental value, daylilies also have medicinal value: its roots and leaves can be used medicinally for high medicinal value, has the effect of strengthening the brain and bright eyes, and can significantly reduce serum cholesterol content.
The difference between yellow cauliflower and daylilies
Daylilies are very similar in flower type to yellow cauliflower, a class of daylilies in the genus Daylilies.
The yellow cauliflower flowers are slender, the petals are narrower, and the flower color is tender yellow; Ornamental daylilies are closer to funnel-shaped lilies in shape, and the flowers are generally orange or even close to red.
Yellow cauliflower has a high iron content, which has a miraculous effect on blood replenishment and hemostasis, and can be used as a good blood tonic product. However, yellow cauliflower contains a small amount of colchicine, which should be made into dry products and cooked or stir-fried at high temperatures before eating.
Daylilies forget your worries
Forget who sees the reward, empty in this north hall - daylilies flowers, mother's forgetfulness grass and relief flowers
The earliest written record of daylilies is found in the Book of Poetry· Weifeng Boxi": "Grass is good, the back of the tree". Zhu Xi noted: "Grass is forgettable; Back, Kitado also. "Daylilies are also known as 谖 [xuān]" grass, 谖 means to forget.
The "Natural History" said: "Daylilies, food is so joyful, forget worries, so forget the worries." The "Poem" also contains: "Since the descendants used daylilies as daylilies, they began to say that daylilies forget their worries." ”
Daylilies, joyful and carefree, light and bright
The "Compendium of Materia Medica" records that daylilies "have a sweet smell, cool nature, non-toxicity, cure red urine, body irritability, remove alcohol, eliminate food, and promote humidity and heat." As a shi, it is good for the chest and five internal organs, making people happy and worry-free, light and bright."
It can be seen that daylilies have the pharmacological effect of curing body heat and removing moisture, which can make people calm their minds and forget temporary troubles and worries, and its meaning of forgetfulness is also derived.
The ancients used daylilies as a symbol of a loving mother to express their love for their mothers, which was widely used in ancient literature and painting.
Daylilies forget your worries
Wanderer
Mengjiao (Tang Dynasty)
Daylilies give birth to the stairs, and the wanderers travel the world.
Leaning on the door of the hall, there were no daylilies in sight.
We all know the great poet Meng Jiao's famous "Youzi Yin", in which "whoever speaks carelessly, repays the three chunhui" is even more praised through the ages, in fact, he also has a poem written about "daylily flowers".
"The north hall is dark, you can plant daylilies" - daylilies flowers are usually planted in the north hall: the north hall represents the mother, and in ancient times, the wanderers planted daylilies in the north hall, borrowing the beauty of flowers to please the heart, and there are also "food forgetting", all in the hope that the mother can alleviate her thoughts and forget her worries.
Ming Shen Zhou "Huai Xuan Tu"
The Ming dynasty painter Shen Zhou painted "Huai Xuan Tu" and presented it to his friend Wang Wei to relieve his friend's longing for his late mother.
Shen Zhou's inscription poem: Mother goes to Xuan alone, Yi Nan is empty, Beitang leaves old traces, inch grass is my selfishness, the world is desperate to return to the soul, flowers splash tear branches, deep grace can not speak, everywhere Qian inscribed poems.
Daylilies are also known as "Yi Male Grass", and the "Notes on Customs" cloud in the Jin Zhou Dynasty: "Flowers are suitable for men, pregnant women wear them, and they will give birth to men", which means that pregnant women will give birth to boys when they wear daylilies.
Shen Zhou: Mother goes to Xuan alone, when the man is empty, Beitang leaves traces of his home, the grass is my selfishness, the world is the ultimate soul medicine, the flower is splashed with tears, the deep grace cannot be spoken, and the poems are inscribed everywhere
Beitang daylilies flowers, longing for the end of the world - daylilies flowers, about the connection between hometown, mother and wanderer
Daylilies are a spiritual sustenance, not only about the mother, but also about the homeland - and its manifestations are very broad: it can express the sorrow and longing of being far away from one's relatives, being detained in a foreign land, being separated from one's homeland, etc.
Su Wu of the Western Han Dynasty sent an envoy to the Xiongnu and was detained for nineteen years, and he wrote in a letter with Li Ling that "relatives scattered with the wind, dripping like shooting stars." May daylilies be obtained to quench hunger and thirst."
Wang Rong also wrote: "Sijun is like daylilies, at first sight is to forget worries", Bai Juyi wrote "Du Kang can disperse stuffiness, daylilies relieve forgetfulness", which shows that daylilies have become an important way for people to express their thoughts.
Sijun is like daylilies, and he forgets his worries at first sight
Daylilies are also the flowers of wanderers, far from their homeland, and every time you see them, you can also relieve the worry of homesickness and relatives.
When I was a child, every summer, the yellow cauliflower in the backyard of my mother's unit shone with golden figures in the blue of my eyes, and they were as beautiful as lilies but more petite.
My mother would teach me how to pick, but because I didn't get the essentials, my hands would be covered with brown sticky juice, and I usually gave up after a short period of curiosity.
Delicious yellow cauliflower
In the end, the mother will do it for her, carefully picked, put away, after steaming, drying and drying, washing again when eating, you can make soup stir-fry, the most absolute is to add fungus egg blossom to the marinated noodles, this delicacy if there is less yellow cauliflower, it will inevitably lose its look.
It's about the taste of my mother, wandering away from home for many years, and every time I think of the bowl of noodles that belongs to my mother, soft in the stomach, warm in the heart - from my mother's love.
The farther away from home, the stronger the longing, from the northwest to the southeast, even if it is far away from a thousand mountains and can not be with each other all the time, but her mother's love has never decreased, and she always has a way to pass on delicacy.
She turns all the time spent waiting for a meeting into the trivial and time-consuming tasks of selecting, buying, washing, handling, drying, turning and collecting, incorporating invisible care and love.
Dried eggplant, dried apples, dried apricots, rose pot helmets, beef jerky, etc., with the taste of sunshine and fireworks at home, packaged and mailed together, a steady stream, four o'clock can be expected.
My friends ridiculed me for not losing weight, because I have a good pair of good parents who are always worried about me, and love can make me swell, not to mention the warmth and ironing smell from home.
Mother's hand thread, wanderer's blouse - mother's hand, the deepest expression of love
As a child, I was always amazed at my mother's omnipotent hands, making good food, knitting sweaters, tying me pigtails, crocheting lace-like tablecloths, and so on.
Something that seemed to me to need to be eliminated was given a new lease of life in her hands. The big and small little things in life that are difficult to solve, as if mom always has a way to turn decay into magic.
She is always good at understanding life from small details, creating surprises and fun. Behind the cherishing of things is the endless wisdom of life.
Mom's hand
Until one day, I accidentally observed those hands, although they were still slender, but more dry.
The undulating blood vessels on the back of the hand, the skin crumpled by time, brown spots, and various colors unbridled on its surface.
It seems that everything can be done, but it is so fragile, the vicissitudes that cannot be concealed, has experienced the dislocation after the fracture, and has recovered for a long time. But Mom still magically returns it to the past, still expressing deep love with the hard work of her hands.
Mom's hand
Mom and Dad rarely mentioned their pain and discomfort to me, and I seemed to ignore and forget them as a matter of course.
Because of her age, her mother slipped and injured her wrist not long ago, but she silently hid it for many days.
They were always afraid that I was worried, but they kept caring, and I didn't know it, self-righteously missing those deep loves, guilty, mixed tastes.
McDull and Mom
Daylilies forget their worries, miss a thousand things - mother, your last nostalgia in the world
Daylilies mean forgetfulness, and as a mother, He had a moment of true forgetfulness.
She always mends under the lamp, thinks in her dreams, leans against the door, her eyes cross thousands of mountains and rivers, her eyes are full of children who travel far away, where can she accommodate herself.
I have always had the courage to resist the wind and rain outside, but I left the most vulnerable and unbearable side to my mother, in front of her, although she has passed the age of standing, she is still like a child, and she is often coquettish.
In fact, Mom used to be her parents' little padded jacket and pointed heart, but she did everything for you to become strong.
Sometimes when my mother was asleep, I occasionally glimpsed the grayness in her black hair, gently stroking her sideburns, which was a mark of time and the accumulation of half a lifetime of worry, cruel and bitter.
That day I put my hand on my mother's shoulder, she said oh, you are taller than me and unstable, only to remember that I used to be about the same height as my mother, and the years made her short, but the concern and longing were not reduced.
Just like parents never ask for anything in return, they only want their children to be healthy and happy, and they always have a sour nose.
Mother is the softest and strongest existence, the bright moon, the reckless earth, a word and syllable with the same pronunciation in the world, the only password after the collapse of the Tower of Babel, destined to become the deepest concern and longing of every heart.
Just as "where parents are, there is still a place to come, parents go, there is no way back".
Your parents are your last nostalgia in the world, always touched and felt inadvertently, but it becomes stronger and stronger with each passing day.
In May, go and see the golden daylilies with your mother, may they forget and be happy!
May all mothers have their own pride and happiness - I hope that my mother will not only play the role of a mother, but also live happily as herself!
