Granny: "Really?"

The master reassured: "It's really delicious, just like what Xiaoyuan said, this food...is much more fragrant than fish!"

The old lady couldn't resist the master's instigation, and finally put a piece of wood frog meat in her mouth with the courage. Sure enough, the smooth and tender wood frog meat entered her mouth, and the taste was extremely delicious.

Even old milk with bad teeth can chew it easily.

Most importantly, the taste was delicious!

The old lady couldn't help exaggerating: "It's really delicious. I thought this wood frog would be fishy, ​​but it doesn't smell at all."

Li Yuan: "Eat more if you like it, this forest frog is good for your health."

When everyone in the live broadcast room saw this scene, they couldn't help showing envious expressions again.

"Although it's easy to be scolded for saying this, I still want to say...Young man of the Li family, I want to be your grandma too!"

"Haha, in fact, this sentence has been held in my heart for a long time!"

"Your requirements are too high, I'm very simple, I want to be the future wife of the eldest son of the Li family!"

"Don't dream, you don't even have the qualifications to be the briquettes next to the eldest son of the Li family."

……

"Lixia today, have you decided what to eat tonight?"

While tidying up the yard, Li Yuan asked the friends in the live broadcast room with a smile on his face.

Studio.

"What's delicious in Lixia?"

"There are so many delicious foods in Lixia!"

"I know that Lixia eats eggs, but I don't know much about the others."

"Eggs? Why are you eating eggs?"

"Li Xia eats eggs, you don't know?"

"Why don't I understand, why do you want to eat eggs?"

Li Yuan: "There are indeed a lot of things that can be eaten in Lixia, and many new foods became popular later on. For example, there is a "Lixia sees three new things" in Suzhou. The three new things are the famous green plum, wheat, and Cherries, but these three are all for ancestor worship."

"In Changshu, Changshu tastes more abundant food, and there is a saying of 'nine meat and thirteen vegetables'."

"Nine Huns should have crucian carp, salted eggs, and snail amberjack, right?"

"I know there's also chicken and marinated shrimp."

"I haven't even heard of it."

"What the hell is this?"

Li Yuan: "What everyone said just now is correct, but what everyone said is among the nine meats, and among the nine meats there are pickled fresh meat and cherry meat."

"The thirteen elements refer to cherries, plums, silkworms, bamboo shoots, broad beans, spear needles, peas, cucumbers, lettuce, grass heads, radishes, roses, and pine flowers."

The saying that nine meats are thirteen vegetarians appeared later.

In ancient times, Lixia paid much attention to food, but the sayings about food only appeared later.

At the earliest, Lixia actually appeared to distinguish the existence of spring and summer, which means that the plants sown in spring have grown upright.

People who lived in ancient times actually attached great importance to the custom of Lixia.

On this day of Lixia, the ancient emperors not only had to take civil and military officials to the southern suburbs of the capital to hold a ceremony to welcome the summer, but they also had to be very particular about their attire.

Like wearing proud dark colors, both rulers and ministers must wear vermilion dresses, and they must also be accompanied by vermilion jade pendants. Even horses and carriage flags must be vermilion to express prayers for a good harvest and Good wishes.

"It turns out that ancient times paid so much attention to Lixia?"

"Lixia eats a lot!"

"But what does this have to do with eggs? I haven't heard of eating eggs in ancient times?"

"Of course it has something to do with it! Lixia eats eggs, and summer doesn't end in hot weather. I've known this proverb since I was a child!"

"It doesn't matter what he eats, Lixia means the weather is warmer, he can wear nice clothes, and he can eat a lot of delicious food!"

Li Yuan: "Lixia is the seventh solar term in the 24 solar terms, and it is also the first solar term in summer."

"The coming of Lixia actually heralds the change of seasons and the official beginning of midsummer."

"The arrival of Lixia is based on the sun reaching 45 degrees of the celestial longitude, and the time is generally on May 5 or 5 of the Gregorian calendar every year."

"After the beginning of summer, the temperature changes fastest should be in the Jiangnan area, and the entire rainfall and the number of rainy days in the south will increase significantly."

"Although Lixia has no effect on us, it is a very clear dividing line for crops."

"When the beginning of summer arrives, the temperature rises significantly, the heat is approaching, thunderstorms increase, and an important solar term for crops to enter the peak growth season."

"There are three seasons in the beginning of summer. The first time is when the grasshoppers sing, the second time is when the earthworms come out, and the third time is when the king melon is born. The main customs include the ceremony of welcoming the summer, tasting new activities, fighting eggs, and "weighing people" in the beginning of summer, etc."

"I know about egg fighting! Children still often play egg fighting!"

"We are here too."

"Fighting eggs? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"You don't even know about such a popular game?"

"I do not know either!"

"What is an egg fighting game? How do you play it? Is it fun?"

Li Yuan: "The so-called daring game is actually a whole family of boiled eggs, the kind of eggs with shells that cannot be broken."

"After cooking, soak it in cold water for a few minutes, then put on the woven silk mesh bag, hang it around the child's neck, and then play egg fighting games."

"This egg fighting game is not very popular in the Northeast, but I know that there are many places where egg fighting is played."

"At that time, we often held boiled eggs and fought eggs with several children."

"Winning or losing an egg fight is the so-called seeing whose egg is the strongest."

"Eggs are divided into two ends, the pointed one is the head, and the round one is the tail.

"The so-called egg fighting is to fight the head of the egg with the head of the egg, and the tail of the egg against the tail of the egg."

Fight one by one, the broken ones admit defeat, and finally the winner is determined.The winner of the egg head is the first, and the egg is called the king; the winner of the egg tail is the second, and the egg is called the little king or the second king. "

Studio.

"That sounds interesting!"

"The Dou Liu Shaozi in the Northeast is similar to this..."

"Isn't this just to see whose eggs are stronger? Haha."

"Listen...it's a bit awkward..."

"Haha, nothing wrong!"

A smile appeared on the corner of Li Yuan's mouth.

"Egg fighting is really fun. The key is that there were fewer toys at that time, and everyone had so much fun in childhood, so it is especially fun to recall, but now there are many other ways to play."

"After the beginning of summer, people's metabolism speeds up, the blood supply to the heart and brain is insufficient, and people are tired and lazy, and the so-called spring sleepiness and autumn fatigue are talking about this truth."

"So when it comes to Lixia, everyone must arrange their work and rest time reasonably, supplement nutrients, and adopt correct health care methods."

"As for eggs... it's actually a good habit to eat them during Lixia."

"In fact, the customs of eating eggs and fighting eggs in Lixia are still a legend at the earliest."
