[Grain Rain] A cup of green tea welcomes dust.

Rain gives birth to hundreds of valleys, and everything is renewed. The last solar term this spring, Grain Rain came.

Grain Rain has "third class": the first class begins to live; The second time, pigeons blow feathers; Third, Dai Sheng has fallen. It is said that after Grain Rain, the rainfall increased, duckweed began to grow, then cuckoos began to remind people to sow, and then Dai Sheng birds began to be seen on mulberry trees.

Live up to the spring and not miss the farming season. At this time, maybe everyone is sowing a beautiful hope in their hearts.

In the eyes of Zheng Banqiao, a great genius in the Qing Dynasty, Grain Rain was a good time to drink tea.

There is no wind, when it doesn't rain, the sun is shining, and bamboo is elegant and beautiful.

It's just Tomb-Sweeping Day, even in Grain Rain, sitting there with a cup of fragrant teas.

Grain Rain is on a Sunday this year. I can't stay at home because of the epidemic. It is also a beautiful thing to look at the sky, listen to the melodious songs of birds, make a cup of spring tea and let go of your thoughts when it is rainy and cloudy.

Mr. Lin Yutang once said that as long as there are teapots in China, people everywhere are happy. People in China know that tea loves tea, which has a long history and is still enduring.

Around Grain Rain, southerners began to collect spring tea. The new tea picked before Grain Rain is called "tea before rain". Spring tea harvested in Grain Rain is called "Grain Rain Tea" and "Spring Catechu".

The water temperature of making tea is very particular, and only when it is properly grasped can the most wonderful soup color be brewed. Because temperature is very important for tea. The water temperature for making tea should not be too high or too low. If the water temperature is too high, it is easy to cause the soup color and buds to turn yellow, and the tea fragrance to become low and turbid. When the water temperature is too low, the aroma components cannot be fully emitted, so it is particularly important to control the temperature.

It is important to drink tea with your heart. So use a small cup, not a bowl, even a finely carved white porcelain bowl will damage the elegance of tea. Only when your heart slowly settles down will you gradually appreciate the fun of tea tasting.

Slowing down the pace is a state we want to pursue, and a higher state is to be able to let go of ourselves. Think slowly, experience slowly, and appreciate the simple and pure beauty of tea culture. If you are always running for your life and always chasing vanity fair, it is impossible to understand this beauty so truly.

San Mao once said: "Life is like tea, with bitterness and sweetness and aftertaste."

Life is like tea, with bitter and sweet aftertaste. The key is that you need to taste sweetness in bitterness, and you need to appreciate fragrance in the wind and rain of years.

Grain Rain, let's wash our hearts with a cup of green tea. Through the flying dust, stop at the ferry of life, and look back at the lingering fragrance of yesterday in the time of a cup of tea. ...
