The mention of cherry blossoms is probably reminiscent of the peach rain in Japan in March, and although people still think of Tokyo cherry blossoms when they think of cherry blossoms today, this beautiful flower of the Rosaceae family has its origins in China.

Even in Japan's authoritative book "Sakura Daikan", it is recorded that cherry blossoms were originally produced in the Himalayas. After being cultivated, the species was gradually introduced to the Yangtze River basin in China, southwest China, and the island of Taiwan.

State-owned documents also record that as early as the Qin and Han dynasties, the royal family had planted cherry blossoms, and it has been cultivated for more than 2,000 years. During the Han and Tang dynasties, it was widely planted in private gardens. In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, when all countries came to the dynasty, Japan admired the brilliance of Chinese culture, and the planting technology of horticultural flowers was brought back to Dongying by the Tang envoys along with architecture, clothing, tea ceremony, and kendo.

According to documentary research, more than 2,000 years ago during the Qin and Han dynasties, cherry blossoms were cultivated in Chinese palaces. During the Tang Dynasty, cherry blossoms were widely seen in private courtyards.

Bai Juyi Shiyun: "I also know that the official house is not my house, and the cherry trees are planted in the courtyard, and Shangzuo has recently taken more than five tests, and the flowers should bloom four times." ”

and "The small garden is newly planted with red cherry trees, and the lunch tour around the flowers and branches is idle." The poem clearly shows that the poet digs up wild mountain cherry blossoms from the mountains and plants them in the courtyard for viewing.

In the Ming Dynasty, Yu Ruoying's poem mentions cherry blossoms: "The sound of rain in March is thin, and the cherry blossoms are suspicious of apricot blossoms." Tang Dynasty? The Compendium of Materia Medica written by Meng Shu defines cherry blossoms as: "This is a cherry blossom and not a peach, although it is not a peach, it is called a cherry because of its shape."

The interpretation of the mountain cherry blossom is named: "This cherry is commonly known as plum peach, and the former cherry name is cherry non-peach."

Cherry blossoms are a symbol of love and hope. It represents elegant, simple and pure love. The cherry blossoms are like ignorant girls, quiet to bloom in spring, and the white and pink cherry blossoms of the trees are the most beautiful language to tell lovers about love. Someone in my heart, like that lonely cherry blossom rain, slowly disappears into the depths of time, leaving eternal memories.

Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a Japanese fairy named "Kibana Kai Yahime" who set out from Okinawa. It passes through Kyushu, Kansai, Kanto and other places. Arrived in Hokkaido after 18 months. She scattered a flower that symbolized love and hope all over the country, and on March 15 of the following year, the flowers bloomed all over the country, enveloping Japan in pink. In honor of this fairy. People will name the fairy "Kinoha Kai Yahime", which means "cherry blossom". As a result, Japan has become the "Land of Cherry Blossoms".

As for why the cherry blossoms are scattered all over the country, there is a poignant story hidden in it. This is also the reason why cherry blossoms are considered by many people to be a symbol of beauty, beauty, and romance.

The reason why cherry blossoms can be used as the national flower of Japan is because of the spirit of the cherry blossoms, which is what the Japanese call the "cherry blossom complex", the cherry blossoms do not bloom for a long time, generally only three to five days, and the cherry blossoms choose the spirit of withering at their most glorious time, infecting a generation.

Legend has it that once upon a time, cherry blossoms were only white, and the valiant samurai who reached the top would choose to have their belly cut under their beloved cherry blossom tree, because when a samurai thought he had reached the glory of life, he would choose to end his life.

During the Warring States Period, when the heroes competed for hegemony in the beacon fire, the blood flowed under the cherry blossom tree, and since then the cherry blossoms have bloomed red, and the redder the petals of the cherry blossoms, the more souls under the tree.

Cherry blossoms in the cherry blossom city, quietly blooming for several months, every day to see a lot of couples under the cherry blossom tree, chatting, talking, cherry blossom petals gradually fall down, intoxicated. Therefore, cherry blossoms have become a symbol of love.

At the time of the Warring States, wolf smoke was everywhere, and the world was in chaos.

Everyone wants to be loved and happy, and the fairy in the cherry blossom tree, Kinoha Kai Yahime, is the same, she sees that others are so happy, and she wants to get it herself, so she leaves the cherry blossom tree alone.

The petals of the cherry blossom are still falling, and the love-longing wood blossom is in the crowd, looking for her other half, she has been looking for a long, long time, and when she wants to give up and return to the cherry blossom tree, the cherry blossom tree tells her that the petals have a short lifespan and don't do meaningless things anymore.

When the wood blossom is sentimental, he appears, he begins to bring joy to her, he begins to take care of her, and they talk together until late at night.

Only then did he learn that he had come here from a distant country because the ship had lost his way, and when Muhua Kaiyeji heard this, he felt regretful and knew that he would definitely leave and return to his own country.

Muhua Kaiyeji cherishes this time before parting more and more, she meets him every day under the cherry blossom tree, chatting every day, and enjoys it, but the more she chats, the more Muhuakaiyeji's heart hurts.

The good times are short-lived after all, and the days he is away from him are also coming day by day in the words of love.

Finally, he came to say goodbye to Muhua Kaiyeki.

Although Muhua Kai Yeji had been prepared, she still couldn't resist the blow, she turned her back to him and only said one word "oh".

He was gone, on the vast sea, gone.

Wood Blossom Ye Ji was alone under the cherry blossom tree, crying, the petals of the cherry blossom fell down in order to comfort her, the breeze blew, the petals all over the ground floated up, Wood Blossom Blossom Ye Ji's heart was broken, she cried for a few days and nights, and finally decided that it was time for her to go back, the lifespan of the cherry blossom petals was too short.

Muhua Kaiyeji looked at the cherry blossom tree and thought: I am the fairy of the cherry blossoms, I am ultimately a petal on the cherry blossom tree, and in the end I can only look at others with lovers and loyal dependents, and I will not be happy.

In this way, the wood blossom Yeki disappeared, and some people say that she returned to the tree, and some people say that she turned into petals because of excessive loss, and went with the wind to find him.

A few years later, things have long been wrong, but he is back, he is back!

He came to the place he had agreed, but found that he could no longer find the original cherry blossom tree, nor could he find the wood blossom Kai Yahime, no matter how desperately he searched for her, he never found it, and he was lost.

How he wanted to tell her that he was already in love with her and couldn't help himself, so he came back.

However, when he was heartbroken, the cherry blossoms bloomed all over the country, a breeze blew, and the earth was dyed with a sea of pink flowers, and he heard the sound of the wood blossom Yahime crying.

It turned out that the tree blossom did not return to the cherry blossom tree, but scattered the seeds of the cherry blossoms all over the country, witnessing a series of sincere love, and praying that one day, when he died, if he could come back, the flowers that bloomed at this moment could confirm his heart.

Three hundred years later, the cherry blossoms are still blooming, and many couples come here for this legend to witness their happiness. I don't know if it's the arrangement of fate, or the opportunity of love, Muhua Kaiyeji was reincarnated into the world, and when she came to the cherry blossom tree, she always felt that this place seemed to be a acquaintance.

The wind blew suddenly, the petals blew in an instant, her hat was blown away, and it was picked up by a man, it was him, he was also here, this time, they would definitely not miss it again.

The legend of Kibana Kaiyehime is a story that every Japanese person is familiar with, so cherry blossoms have an irreplaceable place in their hearts.

After Sikong Yao listened to the story depicted by Yuan Fengxue on the battlefield, a girl's heart thumped, and finally turned into a sigh.

In this way, Sakura Jelly is not only the heart of dessert, but also Eiko's love for Battlefield Harasawami.

Desserts made with such a mood are naturally delicious.

Compared with a little hairy child like Yuan Fengxue on the battlefield, Yuan Zejian on the battlefield is obviously a person from the past, and he can more or less know Sikong Yao's thoughts, which is exactly the same as Yingzi who interacted with him when he was young.

In order not to make Sikong Yao sentimental, Battlefield Harazawa was busy bringing things to the right place, and said: "Cherry blossoms are not only used for appreciation, it can also be used to make traditional cherry blossom tea, soak and pickle the petals of Yae cherry blossoms, and make tea while maintaining the fragrance and shape of the flowers." ”

The sweet and refreshing cherry blossom tea tastes similar to black tea and has the unique fragrance of cherry blossoms.

In Japan, it is also made by mixing smoked cherry blossom leaves in green tea with a light salty taste.

The cherry blossom tea container is particularly special, with a strong Japanese flavor, and the petals of the pickled cherry blossoms are placed in the tea vessel and quietly poured with hot water.

The petals float up to the surface of the water, slowly open, and when they are fully opened, you can smell the aroma of the cherry blossoms and look at the beautiful cherry blossoms in the tea vessel, as if you are standing under the cherry blossom tree and seeing the cherry blossoms in your eyes, and your heart is filled with a feeling of happiness.

The cherry blossom tea used here is not Tokyo cherry blossoms, but Yae cherry blossoms that resemble flower balls.

Yae cherry blossoms, also known as Nara Yae cherry blossoms, are more appropriate if they are described as "Dan cherry blossoms", which resemble peonies in layers, with pink petals next to each other, but the pieces are distinct, and when the flowers bloom, they bloom into a bead, just like the hydrangea held by the bride in a Western wedding.

The sun-dried Yae cherry blossoms are crumpled into tiny buds, and when they are washed away, the water-absorbing petals unfold little by little, making you feel as if you are witnessing the whole process of their blooming, which is just like the indecisive gentleness and patience of Yae Sakura's flower language.

Among the cherry blossom jelly made by Huaxianglou is the Tokyo cherry blossom that Sikong Yao knows with common sense, and now it seems that the beauty of this eightfold cherry blossom is even more indescribable.

And with the blooming of the flowers, the fragrance is also emanating little by little, and the tenderness that flows out along the water temperature instantly makes Sikong Yao its captive, and in a trance, Sikong Yao suddenly realized that this must be the second layer of secrets that Li Na did not learn, which belongs to the cherry blossom jelly.
