Question 8: Does the arrival of beginning of autumn mean the arrival of autumn? Yes
Beginning of autumn is the 13 solar term in 24 solar terms, the end of the last month of the dry calendar and the beginning of applying for the moon; The time is around the first day of July in the lunar calendar (between August 7 and 9 in the Gregorian calendar). Autumn means that summer becomes cool, which means the beginning of autumn. In beginning of autumn, the phoenix tree began to shed its leaves, so the idiom "Ye Zhiqiu" came into being. Autumn is the transitional season when the weather turns from hot to cold, and then from cold to cold. Beginning of autumn is the first solar term in autumn.
Beginning of autumn has arrived, but not in autumn. The division of climatic seasons should be based on the "average climate temperature", that is, the local average temperature is below 22℃ for five consecutive days, which is the real autumn. China is a vast country. Although the climate varies from place to place, most of them have not yet entered the autumn climate, and the last days of the dog days are still the third day after beginning of autumn. Beginning of Autumn
Especially in the south of China, this solar term is still a hot summer. At the same time, because the typhoon and rainy season are about to pass and the temperature is even hotter, TCM calls the period from beginning of autumn to the autumnal equinox "long summer".
According to the standard of dividing seasons according to the average climate temperature, it must be that the average temperature is lower than 22℃ for five consecutive days before autumn is considered. According to this standard, the Jianghuai area generally enters autumn in the middle and late September. After beginning of autumn, although the summer heat is hard to disappear for a while, although there is the afterglow of "autumn tiger", the general trend is that the weather is getting colder and colder. The daily temperature range is gradually obvious, which is often very hot during the day and very cold at night.

Question 9: Why do you want to eat watermelon when you are in beginning of autumn? Tomorrow will be the beginning of autumn. According to our custom, we should eat watermelon. Everyone who knows me knows that I don't like fruit, and watermelon is no exception. In midsummer, whenever my family splits a big watermelon and gives it to me, I eat two small pieces symbolically at most. But when I get to beginning of autumn, my mother will force me to eat more. I once asked her why she wanted to eat more. She only said it was because of Gao Qiu (beginning of autumn). Check the China Customs Dictionary to explain this point. This custom is mainly circulated in Shanghai. "Every year on the day of beginning of autumn, farmers give watermelons to relatives and friends. On weekdays, I eat my own melons. On this day, I want to eat the melon I sent. In addition to changing tastes, it is mainly to taste each other, find improved varieties, and exchange and introduce planting techniques. " This explanation, I think, is probably the original reason for the formation of this custom. After beginning of autumn, the weather turned cold and watermelon production began to stop. Therefore, melon farmers should choose the excellent varieties to be planted in the coming year by tasting his watermelon. I call this explanation "improved variety". But it must be pointed out that Shanghai can only be the popular place of this custom, not the origin. Because Shanghai was a fishing village before it opened, it became an industrial and commercial city after it opened. There is no tradition of intensive farming in this area, nor is it a place rich in watermelons. Considering that Shanghai is an immigrant city, the population is mainly composed of locals, Suzhou people, Ningbo people and everyone in northern Jiangsu, the author boldly guesses that this custom in Shanghai should be handed down from Ningbo through Ningbo people in Shanghai. Because Ningbo is also a place rich in watermelon in the Yangtze River Delta, with famous producing areas such as Cixi and Dongqiao, Ningbo people are used to eating watermelon in beginning of autumn. Of course, it is impossible to verify whether Ningbo is the birthplace of this custom. In addition, the author also wants to explain that, as a primitive farming custom, it has a wide popularity at present, and the popularization crowd far exceeds the original melon farmers, but extends to the whole consumer group of watermelon. There must be other reasons for its inheritance and popularity. Based on various materials and my own speculation, the author puts forward two other statements: First, "I can't eat it soon". Beginning of autumn heralds the arrival of summer and autumn. After beginning of autumn, although the summer heat is hard to disappear for a while, there will still be the afterglow of "autumn tiger", but the general trend is that the weather is getting colder. At this time, the watermelon stopped growing. In order to prevent the remaining watermelons in Gua Tian from rotting, melon farmers use this time to "catch them all" and then sell them in the market. At this time, if every family wants to eat more "midsummer fruits", they must buy more fruits and store them at home, thus forming a custom. But nowadays, a large number of out-of-season fruits and vegetables appear, which is good luck for ordinary people, but it is a fatal blow to traditional customs ―― it can be predicted that the custom of eating watermelon in beginning of autumn will be gradually forgotten in our generation. Second, the theory of "inedible". Nowadays, people's diet pays more and more attention to health preservation. Watermelon is cold and suitable for summer. When the weather turns cold, you should eat less or even not. Therefore, beginning of autumn finally feasted on watermelons to preserve his memory of summer, which is in line with the way of keeping in good health. Therefore, I think it is better to eat less of the out-of-season things mentioned above. Everything grows according to its laws, and human intervention destroys not only everything itself, but also us. When I was writing this article, I collected a lot of beginning of autumn customs, especially food. Finally, I comprehensively chose them as the links of this article to provide dinner for readers. Link: Ancient beginning of autumn Food Custom In ancient times, red beans have been eaten with colchicine since the Tang and Song Dynasties.

In the Song Dynasty, the plane tree planted in the basin moved into the Heavenly Palace in autumn. It's time for "beginning of autumn". Tai Shigong shouted: Autumn is here. After the play, the phoenix tree dropped one or two leaves to express autumn. Eating jiaozi in the Northeast In the Northeast, beginning of autumn usually eats jiaozi or steamed buns at home on this day. This is probably related to the generous character of the northeast people, and the locals used to call it "grabbing autumn fertilizer." I'll grab a jiaozi from your bowl, so that I can keep fit in autumn and make up for the oil and water lost in summer. Interestingly, with the craze of losing weight, girls cherish the fruits of "bitter summer" and hope to be robbed of more jiaozi when they eat jiaozi in beginning of autumn, which indicates that the fruits of losing weight will stay in winter and will not gain weight.
