My hometown is a land of plenty - lotus roots are abundant here, and the lotus roots in Lianhua Lake are famous throughout the country.

Spring is here, and there are vibrant scenes everywhere, and the pointed corners of lotus leaves are exposed in the lake.

In summer, the green lotus leaves in the lake slowly stretch out. Look at the pink buds of the lotus, like shy little girls.

Seeing this, people can't help but think of Yang Wanli's famous saying: "The lotus leaves touching the sky are infinitely green, and the lotus flowers reflecting the sun are uniquely red." The breeze brings bursts of lotus leaves and the fragrance of lotus flowers, which makes people relaxed and happy.

Autumn is the season when lotus roots mature. Lotus root pickers wear waterproof clothes and trousers to dig out the fat white lotus roots from the bottom of the lake. Although they are covered in mud, they can't hide the joy of the harvest.

When I got home, I washed it several times with water. I saw that the lotus roots were like the little arms of a fat baby, white and translucent. It was really beautiful.

Lotus root is very delicious. It can be eaten cold, stir-fried, or simmered in soup. No matter how you eat it, it is a nutritious and delicious food.

The lotus root is a symbol of purity. Some people praise it: "It comes out of the mud but is not stained, and washes the ripples without being evil." Yes, although the lotus root lives in the mud, its essence has always been pure and spotless.

Ah! Lotus root, lotus root from my hometown, I love your quiet beauty, and I love your noble quality even more.
