The ancients were based on the head of the nineWeatherThe observation and summary of the number nine proverbs have been formed, the most worrying of which is the omen of the first nine sunny days.
The ancients once said, "The first nine are warm, and the nine are cold;."The first nine is cold, the first nine is warm", this proverb means if the first nineWeatherWarm, then it's time for ninety-nine,WeatherIt will become cold;Conversely, if the first nineWeatherCold, then in the ninety-ninth time, the climate will become warm like spring. The first nineWeatherIt was sunny and there was no rain or snow, so it would feel warm, but this situation illustrated the postponement of the solar terms, suggesting that it was a warm winter that year, and it was already 99 o'clockBeginning of spring, the weather is freezing, which is the so-called "".Pour the spring cold”。RightFarmersThis means that crop yields are reduced or even no grain is harvested, which is a harbinger of famine, so people are most afraid of the first nineWeatherSunny days, on the contrary, herald a good harvest in the coming year.
Another proverb is "Nine days are warm, nine nine grains are rotten". The meaning of this proverb is that if the first nineWeatherSunny and rainy, the climate is warm, so when it comes to ninety-nine, due toWeatherThe cold causes the soil to be poorly permeable, and it is also susceptible to pests and diseases, and the grain buds in the field can rot. This is because of the first nineWeatherThere is little rain and less snow, and it has entered after entering the ninety-nineVernal equinoxsolar terms, and this time is a critical stage for rice growth. Due to the warm winter and severe drought in the spring, coupled with a sudden cold spell, it was difficult for new seeds to survive, which indicated a severe reduction in the rice yield that year. It isFarmersOne of the most worrying situations.
There is a similar proverb that "the snowflakes of the first nine are falling, and the ninety-nine is like June". The meaning of this sentence is that if there is heavy snow on the first nine, then by the time of the ninety-nine, the outside temperature will already be as high as June. Since there is snow on the first nine, it means that the solar term is early, even ifXiao Hanand the Great ColdWeatherAlso appearsWinter solsticeBefore the solar term. In this way,Beginning of springAfter the temperature has begun to warm up, it has arrivedStingedwithVernal equinoxDuring this period, the outside temperature was already quite high.
Favourable temperatures and abundant snowmelt water make for good crop growth and a good forecast for the coming year. In addition, there is a saying that "the first nine snow, pigs and dogs do not eat black", which means that if the first nine snow, then the crops will be harvested, and the pigs and dogs raised at home will eat good white food. It can be seen that a snowfall is significant for the harvest of crops.
The old people say that "the first nine days are most afraid of sunny days", because the first nine sunny days indicate a warm winter, and the coming year is likely to appear".Pour the spring cold", resulting in reduced crop yields. That's why people are worried.
