On an April day in the world, inadvertently, the locust flowers have bloomed all over the tree. In the eastern suburbs of Nanjing, near Yihe Road, many tall locust trees are lush and green, forming patches of green shade.
Walking under the locust tree, it is very cool and comfortable, as if entering a quiet world.

The breeze blows, and the bunches of acacia flowers sway and are fragrant, and the fragrance is full of intoxication.
Acacia flowers are not only a fragrance that lingers on the tip of the nose, but also a delicacy on the tip of the tongue. "Chilled locust flowers, scrambled eggs with locust flowers, steamed locust flowers, there are many ways to eat locust flowers. Aunt Liu, a citizen, said that in the past, there were many acacia flowers in the village, and where there was the fragrance of acacia flowers, there were people who went to pick them in groups.
On a takeaway platform, the price of acacia flowers is 15 yuan to 22 yuan a catty, and in a supermarket chain, fresh acacia flowers are 12 yuan for 100 grams. There are also acacia flowers marked "now picked and haired" and "cold chain next-day delivery" for sale on the Internet, 12 yuan per catty. The Modern Express reporter saw that some stores sold more than 100 orders within 24 hours, and netizens commented that "the feeling of full spring" and "dumplings and scrambled eggs are delicious".
