1. Boiled eggs and beaten eggs

On the day of long summer, eating long summer eggs is a local custom. On the night before the long summer, housewives cook long summer eggs, including boiled eggs and tea eggs.

If there are children at home, the housewife will personally weave the "egg complex", dye the eggs red and put them in the egg complex. The children hung on their heads and necks, holding a few in their hands, and happily ran out to play egg-beating games with the children. The hard eggshells of each family collide with each other, and the one with unbreakable eggshells wins. There is a difference between the hard shell and the wide shell at both ends of an egg. You have to beat the empty shell to win.

String broad beans together.

Every time a soldier kills an enemy, he will pick a broad bean and string it on his chest. The number of broad beans represents the number of people who killed the enemy, and the number of beans is used as a reward. Therefore, in Xiangshan, broad beans are also called "Japanese beans".

5. Chang Xia weighed himself.

On this day of long summer, there is a local custom of calling people. In rural areas, people carry big scales to weigh adults and children and measure their health. Due to the arrival of hot summer, some people will lose weight in summer, which is commonly known as "summer". After a Xia Hou, you can compare with the weight of Chang Xia.

This custom can be traced back to the Empress Dou in the Three Kingdoms period. Legend has it that after Liu Bei's death, Zhuge Liang gave Liu Bei's son to his stepmother, Mrs Sun, to take good care of him. It was a long summer. Mrs. Sun weighed herself in front of her and said it again next summer to see how much weight she had gained. Later, it was passed down as a custom of long summer.
