Essay on April Sophora Fragrant Prose

At the beginning of April, spring really came to the world. The spring breeze blew away the winter clothes, and at the same time wrapped the earth with a thin layer of pale green gauze. The vegetation seemed to jump out of the ground overnight and spit out the tips of light yellow and green.

In the north, my hometown, the rhythm of spring seems to be half a beat slower. In early April, there was still a lot of chill in the air. After mid-April, the temperature suddenly rose, as if it were summer in an instant. Many plants, like catalysts, germinate day by day. The wheat seedlings in the field are the most conspicuous. They are crazy about jointing and growing tall, just like nature owes it, constantly absorbing the nutrition of the earth. Trees germinate late, but in a few days, you can always see many sharp buds on the branches. At first, it is wrapped tightly, and then it is divided into two or three petals overnight, and a young leaf of the tree will grow in a week. At this time, there will always be one or two timely rains. After the rain, you will see a bunch of small buds at the intersection of green leaves and branches, much like a bunch of rice grains. If you hit the dew in the morning, it will hang on the branch like a string of natural pearls. Beautiful!

With the tacit cooperation of sunshine, temperature and humidity, Sophora japonica blooms day by day. People in my hometown have already turned their attention to the locust trees on the banks of rivers, hillsides and ditches, tied up long poles, and prepared a bamboo basket or rattan cage that I can't bear to use for a year, just waiting for the locust trees to bloom overnight. Suddenly in the early morning, I heard someone shouting, "I miss bloom!" Yes, Robinia pseudoacacia is in full bloom, and its fragrance has already permeated the countryside, fields, houses and gullies. Its fragrance is more mellow than osmanthus fragrans. At this time, adults are holding children, men are holding women, and they are picking crazily under the acacia tree. They unscrewed twigs with long hooks and picked flowers. Of course, it won't be long before the Sophora japonica at the lower part of the branch has been refracted. If you want to pick more and better Sophora japonica flowers, you have to climb trees. At this time, adults will encourage children to climb up. Children are small, agile and easier to choose. Even twigs can climb up carefully, but big people can't. If they break the branches carelessly, they can't fall.

People love the scent of Sophora japonica, so do bees and wild bees. As early as when the rape blossoms were half open and half closed, and the Sophora japonica didn't germinate, many beekeepers from other places would take boxes of bees to settle down under the Sophora japonica. One was to collect rape nectar, and the other was to collect Sophora japonica nectar. Of course, acacia nectar should be relatively high-grade and profitable. The weather in April and May is just right, with plenty of sunshine, brilliant bloom and stronger fragrance. Bees are busy collecting honey and transmitting pollen every day, and beekeepers are busy collecting bees and shaking honey every day. Everything is so harmonious. When bees collect honey, they will inevitably shuttle between the branches of Sophora japonica and Sophora japonica, increasing the risk of picking. Bees sometimes fly to their ears, and sometimes they keep hovering over their heads, as if someone had invaded their territory. If you don't move, it doesn't matter. If you don't have the patience or even wave your hand to drive them away, it will be miserable. If you don't get it, you will be seriously stung by bees. Of course, the taste is very bad. Most bees sting their faces or scalps. No matter where they sting, there will be stings from bees, which need to be pulled out immediately. When bee venom penetrates into the skin, the skin will swell immediately. Bees sting people, giving people a fright and a lesson. However, they failed to escape the bondage of fate and plunged into the ground to die. Sometimes when I think of the scene of being stung by bees when I was a child, I can't help shivering and sincerely admire the fearlessness and courage of these little bees!

A cage full of fresh Sophora japonica flowers naturally needs to be cooked at home immediately. This meal is Sophora japonica. Rinse with clear water, mix Flos Sophorae Immaturus, flour, baking powder with water, spread on steaming cloth, and steam in a cage. When the steam comes up for about a quarter of an hour, wisps of elegant Sophora japonica will float out of the steamer, and then you can cook the pot, make a hearty meal, and then you can't wait to put it in the sea bowl and start wolfing it down. Sometimes, painting is very convenient and you don't need a bowl to hold it. All you have to do is grab Sophora japonica with both hands, squeeze it hard, make it into a big ball, and then take a bite. I remember when I was a child, I always brought a large group to school, and I took them out to eat when I was hungry on the way or during recess. Sometimes, my mother will make Sophora japonica alive with flour and fry it into cakes. The white and green cakes are full of yellow flowers, which makes me want to chew them. It tastes fragrant and delicious, but it's a pity that this delicacy can't be enjoyed for a few days a year, because Sophora japonica will be old in a few days and not suitable for eating. So I went to the shade of that ditch to find out if there were any late-blooming Sophora japonica flowers, but it would take a few days to finish them.

Now there are few acacia trees in cities in the south of the Yangtze River, and there are few acacia trees in the south. Some time ago, I saw many people drying acacia flowers in my hometown group, which aroused my appetite. I feel really excited to see the splendid pictures of those acacia flowers and the provocative words praising them. My wife says she can hardly control herself. May I ask where there is a locust tree? I immediately asked my friends about it, and finally found two crooked locust trees in the bushes next to a small ditch in the country. It's a pity that bloom went too far and tasted bad, which made me feel very sorry. Call my parents in my hometown at night to say hello. By the way, I asked the acacia flowers in my hometown. My mother said that the acacia flowers in the village had just bloomed and the fields were everywhere. Now investors have been introduced into the village, and the locust tree forest in the south slope has been built into a leisure and sightseeing area, and a water park has also been built. Every day, many city people come to see and pick Sophora japonica. After listening to my mother's words, my heart is so hot that I can't wait to grow wings and fly back to my hometown and return to the locust tree forest where I used to shuttle when I was a child. ...
