Xiaohan eats mutton, Laba porridge, shrimp, beef, duck and fish for health. Slight cold is the 23rd of the 24 solar terms, representing the beginning of the coldest day of the year. There has always been a folk saying that "it's freezing in the cold, and shivering when it's a little cold", which means that if it's between February and September, the weather will be particularly cold. Whenever the slight cold comes, every household will drink Laba porridge and eat glutinous rice.

Laba porridge, also known as "seven treasures and five flavors porridge", "Buddha porridge" and "everyone's meal", is a kind of porridge made of various ingredients. "Drinking Laba porridge" is the custom of Laba Festival. The traditional ingredients of Laba porridge are rice, millet, corn, coix seed, red dates, lotus seeds, peanuts, longan and various beans (such as red beans, mung beans, soybeans, black beans and kidney beans).

The custom of drinking Laba porridge on Laba Festival comes from Buddhism. The eighth day of the twelfth lunar month is the day when Buddha Sakyamuni became a Buddha. In order not to forget the suffering of the Buddha before he became a Buddha, but also to commemorate the enlightenment of the Buddha on the eighth day of December, ancient Indians ate mixed porridge as a souvenir.

Ensuring sleep in winter is very important to keep healthy. This is especially true in the slight cold season. To avoid catching a cold, you should go to sleep as soon as possible. Between 1 1 in the evening and 1 in the morning, it is the coldest time of the day and the most suitable time to fall asleep.
