Gu Yu, the valley was born to rain.
From April 19 to April 21 every year when the sun reaches 30°, it is a valley rain. It is the last solar term in the spring. After the rain, the earth-paste pulsates and the grain is dripping with rain. It is the best time to sow seedlings and grow seeds and beans.
Rainy weather
Twenty-four solar terms a year, one solar term for fifteen days. The ancients divided the "five days" into "one wait" and the "three waits" were a solar term. Ancient China also divided the rain into three conditions:
At the moment, Ping Shisheng duckweed began to grow.
In the second hour, the cry of the cuckoo sounded and reminded people to start sowing.
In the third hour, Hoopson could already see the Hoopoe bird on the mulberry tree.

Gu Yu has the meaning of “rain and raw grainâ€. At this time, Tanaka’s young seedlings and new crops require moisture from rain. Therefore, this solar term has the closest relationship with farming. The valley rain farms are too numerous to enumerate.
"Before the rain, good cotton. After the rain, good beans."
"It's raining rain, a fish in the river."
"Gu Yu is a prosperous and worth a thousand dollars."
The custom of the rain and rain, long history
Tea picking
The folk crickets "Gu Yu Yu Yu, picking tea to rain" and Gu Yu are the seasons when new tea is harvested. After a rainy and moist valley of rain tea, it is rich in nutrients and aroma. It is said that the tea on this day of the valley rain can clear the fire, evil spirits, and eyesight.
Taro
In the rainy season, there is a custom of eating citron in the north. Before and after the rain, it was the season when the citron was listed. At this time, the savory and refreshing taste of the citron was high. There was an old saying like this: “Before the rain, it is extremely tender and tender, and after the rain, it sprouts and grows wood.â€
Sacrifice
Gushui, Baishui County, Shaanxi has the custom of worshipping the ancestral priests. The “Guiyu Festival†is a folk tradition that has been circulated for thousands of years since the Han Dynasty. According to legend, in the Yellow Emperor era, Cang Wei said in a dream: "I want to have a bumpy harvest of grain and let the people of the world have food." The next day really fell over the grain. Huang Di made it a festival called the Valley Rain Festival.
Peony
There is a saying in the south of the Yangtze River area: “The three dynasties of the rain and the rain look at the peony.†Three days after Gu Yu, it was the peony that was in full bloom. It was the best time to watch the peony. Therefore, peony is also referred to as "column." Thousands of years of cultural heritage, making the "grass rainy season reward peony" has become a common practice of people.
Gu Yu Health
Before and after the rain is a period of high incidence of neuralgia, pollen allergy, rheumatism and other diseases, this season's health care should follow the changes in natural solar terms, for their climate characteristics of nursed back to health. The diet still needs to focus on raising the spleen, eat less sour foods, eat light sweet food. To sum up, there are four words: diet should be "clear", the living should be "free", exercise should be "slow", and the mentality should be "net".
The diet should be “cleared†to control the mouth in the diet, mainly light, in the cooking of food to highlight "three little", that is, less oil, less salt, less sugar, if you must add spices, try to be less good. Taste to highlight the faint feeling.
At the same time, it is necessary to control the amount of food. It is better to use “less†food. Do not eat too much and be too full, especially control the amount of dinner. In the diet of varieties to be "prime", "fresh", mainly seasonal vegetables.
The living should be "free"
In terms of lifestyle, we must pay attention to "leisurely." “Sleeplessness is not known.†Before and after Gu Yu, people are easily trapped. Especially for young children, getting up early to go to school is a painful thing. At this time, we must learn to self-regulate and slowly slow down the pace of life.
However, "leisure" is not to make people lazy and sit still, but to advocate daily life to "have festivals", to go out for walks, outings, and flying kites, so that the mind and body are in a state of peace, synchronizing the body and mind with the season. The same frequency, to play a health effect.
Suitable for sports "slow"
That is to say, no matter what kind of sports you are engaged in, you shouldn't use too much force. It is better to use “slow relief†and you don’t need to worry about it. In the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, there is an exposition of “promptly stepping in court and being sentimentally slowed down.†This means that people are allowed to loosen their hair in this season, loosen their clothing belts, keep their bodies from being constrained, and take a walk in a wide courtyard. Do not allow actions to be constrained. In today's fashionable words, it is probably "aerobic exercise."
Mentality should be "net"
This "net" is both a clean "net" and a calm "quiet". All things are born before and after the rain, people's hearts are in the period of budding. If they are not well controlled, they are prone to anger and get angry. Therefore, in this season, we must lay down the "desire" and "distractions" that are not necessary in our hearts, and thoroughly clean up our hearts, so that our minds are in a "clean" state.
In short, before and after the health of the Valley, to sum it up, one sentence: "Sad without hurting, but not barren" is to maintain a deep, modest attitude towards life and ways of living.
