Little Farmer Big Star

Although the people at the scene have gradually calmed down, they still feel a little unfinished. 【Full text reading】

In twos and threes, they are still discussing with each other, the matter of fairy children offering peaches. Everyone just felt that Fairy Child's stay was too short, it would be nice if they could stay longer.

After that, the focus of the discussion gradually focused on the peach.

"By the way, why did Xiantong offer peaches? Not other fruits, such as apples and pears."

"Cut! You don't even know this? It's a waste of time for you to look at it so hard just now. This birthday peach represents wishing the elderly health, longevity and happiness, so there is another word for 'shou peach'. Do you understand now? This is a A saying that has been passed down since ancient times.”

"I just cut it. Of course I understand what you said. What I mean is, why is it 'Shou Tao' and not 'Shou Apple', 'Shou Pear' or something?"

"This... why is there any reason? It has been passed down like this since ancient times."

"You don't know."

"Okay, okay, you know what you say."

"I just asked because I didn't know."

"..."

Why do you offer peaches for your birthday?

When this question was asked, many people at the scene were stunned, yes, why is it offering peach? Instead of offering other fruits?

Many people just found out that they only know what it is, but don't know why.

They have never thought about this question before, and now someone asks it, which also piques their curiosity.

"Does anyone know why this is? Come on, come out and tell everyone, my curiosity has been suspended."

...

"Do you know?" Lin Yuebai asked.

"Cut! I don't have time to study this? No matter what it is, it's good to know that birthday wishes are offering peaches." Lu Dong said.

"That's right, instead of talking about this, let's talk about what to do next? Li Fan, he is our common enemy now." Ouyang Dong also said.

"That sinister boy!" Zhao Kuo gritted his teeth and said,

He is still in a state of extreme anger.

When he should be pretending to be coercive, being cool, and being in the limelight, Li Fan stole all the limelight.

Although the guests at the scene were concerned about his identity and did not ridicule him, they did not continue to cheer for him, and they did not continue to be shocked by him. This tone would not go well no matter what.

Lin Kun looked at Song Jingshu and said, "Jingshu, didn't you say before that you have a sure-footed idea that will make that kid make a fool of yourself? How is it now? When are you going to take action?"

Song Jingshu said: "That kid Li Fan can do such a powerful magic trick is really surprising. However, don't worry about it, you can leave it to me. Even if that kid has all kinds of skills, the next step will be There is no doubt that I will lose. Because what I want to do is not something that can be done by human power alone. No matter how much skill this kid has, it is useless. "

When a few people around listened, their eyes lit up at the same time, and Zhao Kuo asked eagerly, "Jing Shu, what's the matter? When are you going to start?"

Song Jingshu smiled smugly and said, "You will find out what happens later, at least when will it start, um, just wait."

Seeing the smug look on Song Jingshu's face, a few people around snorted in their hearts, all thinking in their hearts, "Smug ass! It really embarrassed that kid."

...

What Lin Yuebai and the others are concerned about is how to target Li Fan? And the guests at the scene are now concerned about why they are offering peaches?

"Huh? Don't everyone know? It's impossible."

"It's estimated that not many people know about it. Who would care about this?"

"I know this, let me tell you about it."

"Haha! Well, someone finally knows. Hey, are you Yi Yun from the Yi family?"

"Haha, it's Brother Xie, I'm Yi Yun."

"Haha! I didn't expect you to recognize me. We haven't seen each other for several years. But, Yi Yun, tell us about this 'Shou Tao' first, and we'll catch up later."

Yi Yun nodded and smiled, "Okay, no problem."

First of all, this peach is not an ordinary fruit in some folk sayings.

In the "Shenyijing", there is such a record: "There is a tree in the east, fifty feet high, called peach. Its son is three feet and three inches in diameter, and it is good to eat with nuclear food."

It can be seen that the peach tree is actually a fairy tree, and its fruit "peaches" can increase lifespan when eaten.

In addition, there is also a record in "Supplementary Notes": "The 50,000-mile journey to Fusang from Kuangchi Mountain is less than a day. If the ground is cold, the peach trees are surrounded by thousands of trees, and their flowers are blue and black.

The peach trees on the Crab Mountain "long live a meal", people eat their "peaches", and naturally prolong their life.

This is a related record about the peach tree, and it is also related to two folklore.

The first is the legend about Sun Bin.

Legend has it that when Sun Bin was 18 years old, he left his hometown and went to Yunmeng Mountain, thousands of miles away, to learn the art of war from Guiguzi.

It has been twelve years since then. On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in a certain year, Sun Bin suddenly thought: "Today is my mother's 80th birthday."

So, Sun Bin asked his master to leave home to visit his mother.

The master picked a peach and gave it to Sun Bin, and said, "You are studying abroad and you failed to repay your mother's kindness. I will give you a peach and bring it back to Lingtang for his birthday."

When Sun Bin returned home, he took out the peaches from the master from his arms and handed it to his mother.

Unexpectedly, before the old mother had finished eating the peach, her face became young, and Sun Bin was very happy to see it.

People heard that Sun Bin's mother became young immediately after eating peaches, and she wanted her parents to live a long and healthy life, so they all began to follow Sun Bin's example and gave fresh peaches to her parents to celebrate their birthdays.

The act of sending peaches for birthday celebrations has spread like this until today.

There is also a legend that the Queen Mother of the West gave peaches to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

There is a folklore in our country that Emperor Wu of Han advocated immortality. When the Queen Mother of the West knew about it, she sent an envoy to inform Emperor Wu of Han that she would come at some point.

On the seventh day of the seventh month, the Queen Mother of the West took a cloud carriage to the west side of Emperor Wudi's palace.

There were three blue birds standing beside the Queen Mother of the West.

The Queen Mother of the West gave Emperor Wu of Han five big peaches, and told Emperor Wu of Han: "This is a fairy fruit that only bears fruit once every three thousand years."

It can be seen that this peach only bears fruit once every three thousand years, and it is an absolute fairy fruit.

Therefore, when the Queen Mother of the West gave peaches, it actually meant the gift of longevity.

All of the above are the reasons why peaches are offered for birthday celebrations.

Of course, if we analyze it from our current scientific point of view, we can also find the reason.

Because peach flesh is delicious, not only is high in cellulose, but also contains vitamin E, fructose and other nutrients.

Among them, vitamin E is anti-oxidative and anti-aging, and fructose has the effect of nourishing and strengthening the body, especially cellulose, which is good for common diseases of the elderly, such as arteriosclerosis and constipation.

Therefore, there is a folk proverb "I would rather eat a mouthful of fresh peaches than a basket of rotten apricots".

To sum up, presenting peaches for birthday wishes is the most appropriate, both in terms of related meaning and nutritional value itself.
