Will it rain on March 3rd?

This time is the season in Grain Rain. Both rice transplanting and corn topdressing need rainwater to provide rainwater. So we say that spring rain is as expensive as oil, which is the most urgently needed during crop growth. If it rains on March 3rd, it will be timely.

As for the old folk proverb that it doesn't rain, the theme of this agricultural proverb is that if it rains on March 3, there will be a bumper harvest of rice and other crops in the future.

The "rotten rice" here refers to the grain left over from last year, mainly refers to the bumper harvest this year, and people like to eat new rice. The new rice is definitely more delicious than the old rice, so when it comes out, no one in the old rice wants it, which is actually a bumper harvest of rice.
