Dishwashing slogan

Since I came to Germany, I seldom use the lunar calendar, so I often don't remember the twenty-four solar terms.

When I got up in the morning, I saw a photo sent to me by my classmate, only to know that today is Xiaoman in the twenty-four solar terms of the lunar calendar.

In my mind, I can't help thinking of an agricultural proverb that my father once said a long time ago about Xiaoman in the 24 solar terms: Xiaoman is not satisfied, and there is no water to wash dishes.

This means that if it doesn't rain on Xiaoman day, there may be a drought next, and there is no water to wash dishes.

I don't know if there is any scientific basis, but it should also be the experience accumulated by the older generation in long-term practical life. It cannot be said that 100% is correct, but at least some rules are feasible.

Dad once said that there are many agricultural proverbs like this, such as "Lightning, thunder and three snows", "I can't stop in a long summer, and there is no rake to wash", "The south wind blows in a small summer, and ten rushes wither and nine rushes ..." and so on.

It's just that I haven't known anything about farming for too long, so I don't remember much.

When I think of my father's generation, our generation simply can't understand their love for the land and their familiarity with agriculture.

When I was very young, I knew that there were 24 solar terms, and I kept them in mind under the guidance of my father: "Spring rains in January, vernal equinox in February, Qingming in Grain Rain in March, full summer in April, summer solstice in May, summer solstice in June, summer solstice in beginning of autumn in July, autumn equinox in August, frosty dew in early September, light snow in early October, winter solstice in November and light summer in December."

When I was in geography in junior high school, the teacher talked about the 24 solar terms, which deepened my impression and made me remember it still.

It's just that the agricultural proverbs my father once told me about the 24 solar terms have gradually been forgotten by me as time goes by, just like many long-lost joys, they are finally exhausted as time goes by.

Now, my father has gone to heaven, and many of the knowledge he once taught me will still appear in my mind from time to time. Those lost in the depths of time are also clearly lost in memory from time to time.

In two days, it will be the 90th day since Dad left us.

Time is so heartless! Although I have been reluctant to admit that my father has left us, although my father has left us for almost 90 days, I just don't want to accept it psychologically.

Subconsciously, I always thought that my father was still somewhere unknown, just temporarily leaving. But as long as I go back, as long as I gently call "Dad", he will come out with a smile as before. ...

However, the cruel reality always reminds me that my father has gone to heaven and will not wait for me somewhere as I imagined until I call him "Dad."

So I can only occasionally think of the past with my father in some casual days, and think of a few words my father once said.

In these few words, I recall my father's voice and smile when he said these words.

It seems that only in this way can I fill the gap left in my heart after my father left, and only in this way can I know that my father really left us and will never come back.

People often say: "the tree wants to be quiet, but the wind will not stop." My son wants to keep it, but he doesn't want to stay nearby. " Dad's departure made me deeply realize the pain of this sentence.

If possible, I hope the rest of my life can be complete, so that I can be loyal and filial to my parents and have no regrets all my life.
