In the summer, the fifth solar term of summer means the official start of the summer season. Summer means hot, small summer heat means that the weather is starting to be hot, but it has not yet reached the hottest. "Little summer thunder, inverted into Huangmei", before and after Xiaoshu, most parts of the southern my country entered the season with the most thunderstorms.

As the so -called "small summer heat, steaming and cooking", the arrival of small summer summer means that the weather is getting wet and humid.

In order to cope with the upcoming hot climate, and at the same time, he expressed his gratitude to the harvest of food, in the past, there was a traditional custom of "eating new" in the summer. That is, after the small summer, the new rice is tasted, and the peasants have grinded the new rice and wheat into powder to make various noodle cakes and noodles for worshiping the Great Gods and ancestors. Then everyone eats new wine and prays to bless the wind. It is said that "eating new" is "eating Xin", the first Xin Ri after the summer season. Cities generally buy a small amount of new rice with Lao Mi, plus newly listed vegetables. Therefore, there is also the saying "eat small summer, eat the valley in the summer".
