What does it mean to cook bamboo before the rain and dig out Lu Yu's songs to record Lu Tong?
This couplet is about tea culture, and the first couplet is about the exquisite picking and making of tea and the quiet cooking environment. Tea is not only a delicious health drink, but also an elegant and emotional thing. In Ming Dynasty, Xu Cishu said: "Qingming is too early, long summer is too late, around Grain Rain, the time is moderate". After the Qingming Festival and before Grain Rain, it is indeed the most suitable season for picking spring tea. Tea before rain is often fresh and strong, but it is resistant to soaking. Bamboo grove is also a favorite place for literati to make tea. There are many literati paintings with the theme of making tea in bamboo forest and bamboo garden handed down from generation to generation.

The second part continues to say that China's tea culture is profound and has a long history through the allusions of two tea ceremony masters. Lu Yu is famous for writing the world's first monograph on tea studies-Tea Classic, and is known as "tea fairy", "Cha Sheng" and "Tea God". The Book of Tea records in detail the origin, varieties, physical properties, production technology, utensils, cooking and drinking rules, water source selection, skills and tea tasting of China tea at that time. It is a necessary collection for literati and tea lovers, so it is called "Lu Yu".

And Lutong is also addicted to tea. His poem "Raising the Pen and Xie Meng Persuading to Send New Tea" has been sung for thousands of years, and the most popular passage is: "One bowl moistens the throat, two bowls are lonely." Three bowls of heartbroken, only five thousand volumes of words. Four bowls of sweat, life is not smooth, scattered to the pores. Five bowls without tendons and bones. Six bowls of faeries. I can't eat seven bowls, but I feel the wind blowing under my arm. ..... "Use Liu Yu's tea classics. The efficacy of tea and the aesthetic pleasure of Lu Tong's drinking tea are vividly expressed in the poem. People are named after poems, and poems are also named after tea. Lu Tong wrote Tea Spectrum, which was also honored as "tea fairy" by the world. (Seven bowls of tea songs even spread to Japan, laying the foundation for Japanese tea ceremony), so it is called "Song Lu Ji Tong".
