What does the white dew mean?
As the proverb goes, "The white dew does not show its body, and the cold dew does not show its feet." This proverb reminds everyone that once the Millennium solar term is over, you can no longer be shirtless when you wear clothes; After the cold dew solar term, you should pay attention to keeping your feet warm. ?
After the "White Dew", the climate is changeable, especially in the morning and one night, which adds a little coolness. If you are shirtless and wear shorts at this time, you will easily catch a cold or cause a relapse. People with weak constitution, stomach diseases or chronic lung diseases should add clothes in the morning and evening, and don't be greedy when sleeping. In autumn, germs multiply actively, and the climate is relatively dry, which is easy to cause the spread of pathogenic microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria. Therefore, autumn is the season with frequent respiratory diseases. After the cold dew, the climate is changeable, and the temperature difference between day and night changes greatly. If you are not careful, you will easily catch a cold and induce upper respiratory tract infection. In addition, friends with chronic stomach diseases should also try to keep warm in their lives to avoid the recurrence or aggravation of stomach diseases caused by cold in the abdomen.
what is the origin of the white dew?
In Jiaxing and Tongxiang, there is a saying: If you are naked, you should be a pig shirtless. Why do you say that? There is another legend here.
Once upon a time, there was a dutiful son named Zhang who made a living by helping people kill pigs. There is only one sick old mother in the family. Because of his poor family, Zhang Butcher is still in his forties and can't marry his wife. In order to save money, he took medicine for his old mother. In the spring and autumn, he wore very thin clothes and went shirtless in the summer.
Since beginning of autumn, the weather has been getting colder day by day. People have put on long-sleeved shirts, and they are weak and afraid of the cold, and even put on jackets. It's warmer when the sun is shining during the day, but at night, I feel overwhelmed without clothes. Zhang Butcher is still naked. Seeing that the Millennium arrived, he got up at five o'clock as usual and planned to help his customers kill pigs.
Zhang butcher said goodbye to his mother and went out with a pig-killing tool. It was cold in the cold night, so Zhang Butcher endured the cold and hurried to his employer's house. The employer this time is Li Jiacun, five miles away. I don't know where the moon in the sky is hiding, only a few stars are shining faintly in the dark. Butcher Zhang walked in a hurry, and soon he got hot, and after walking for a while he sweated again. Suddenly, he seemed to hear a slight rustle. Although the red knife goes in and the white knife goes out on weekdays, he still feels creepy when he hears this sound in this silent darkness.
Butcher Zhang quickened his pace, and his ears could only hear his increasingly heavy panting. Being in a hurry, he dropped a shoe when approaching a mulberry field. He bent down quickly and looked around with his eyes wide open. At this moment, two people suddenly rushed out of the mulberry field and tied him up without hesitation. Only heard a man shout: "finally caught you this beast!" " Zhang Butcher was in a hurry and repeatedly called, "Who are you? What do you want to do! " Hearing this, the two men quickly took out matches, lit them, shone on the butcher Zhang, who was tied to the ground by them, and cried in surprise, "Huh? How can it be a person? " Another person said, "It's so cold, why don't you wear clothes?" It turned out that they ran a big fat pig, came out to look for it, but they couldn't find it for a long time. They were disappointed. They saw a pile of white meat sloshing in the dark and thought it was the lost pig.
Butcher Zhang was dumbfounded when he heard this: I didn't expect him to be a pig killer, but people thought he was a pig!
Is the Millennium still hot?
The Millennium is the first solar term in September. Dew is water droplets condensed by water vapor on the ground or near-earth objects due to the decrease of temperature. Therefore, the Millennium actually indicates that the weather has turned cold. At this time, people will obviously feel that the hot summer has passed and the cool autumn has arrived. Because the temperature during the day is still more than 3 degrees, but after night, it drops to more than 2 degrees, and the temperature difference between the two is more than 1 degrees. Yang qi reaches its peak in the summer solstice, and the extremes must be reversed, and Yin qi also rises at this time. When it comes to the White Dew, the yin is gradually aggravated, and the dew in the morning is gradually thickened and condensed into a layer of white water drops, so it is called the White Dew.
Experts remind that the Millennium is a typical autumn climate, and the climate in autumn is characterized by dryness, so be careful of "autumn dryness" that hurts people.
As the old saying goes, "Don't show your body during the Millennium Festival, but remind you sooner or later." It is intended to remind people that although it is mild during the day, it is already cold in the morning and evening, and it is easy to catch cold when beating red breast.
