There are customs such as exorcising evil spirits and sweeping tombs in various places to pray for good weather and a happy and healthy life. For example, in some places such as Yantai, Shandong, people go to the western suburbs to welcome the frost on the day of Frost's Descent; in Gaoming area of Guangdong, there is a custom of "sending away the taro ghost" before Frost's Descent. During the Frost Descent season, people would pile up tiles to form the Pagoda of Hanoi, put dry firewood inside the tower and light it. The stronger the fire burned, the better, until the tiles were red hot. Then they would push down the Pagoda of Hanoi and use the red-hot tiles to heat taro, which is locally called "beating the taro pot". Finally, they would throw the tiles out of the village, which was called "sending away the taro ghost". In this way, people ward off evil and welcome good fortune.Eating persimmons <br /> In some places in China, people eat red persimmons during the Frost Descent season. In the eyes of local people, this not only keeps people warm but also helps to strengthen bones and muscles, making it a very good food for the Frost Descent season. The old people in Quanzhou say that eating persimmons during the Frost's Descent will prevent a runny nose. In some places, the explanation for this custom is: you must eat persimmons on the day of Frost's Descent, otherwise your lips will be chapped throughout the winter. At this time, people living in the countryside would climb up the tall persimmon trees and pick a few shiny, sweet persimmons to eat. Eat radishes during the Frost Descent <br /> Shandong folk proverb: Eat sorghum during the End of Heat, eat rice during the White Dew, and pick radishes during the Frost Descent. In autumn, radish is better than ginseng. Radish is a common vegetable and is also considered one of the signature dishes of autumn and winter. It can be eaten raw, eaten cold, made into hot dishes, soups, porridge, staple foods, and even made into medicinal foods. White radishes with white but not transparent skin have a spicy flavor and can only be eaten cooked; white radishes with transparent skin and sweet flesh that are not spicy can be eaten raw. Eating raw white radish can firstly relieve gas and relieve abdominal bloating; secondly, white radish enters the lungs, and the lungs correspond to autumn, so white radish can enhance the lungs' "descending" function, which can both relieve cough and promote large intestine movement. "The lungs and large intestine are the exterior and interior of each other." Beef is good for your health <br /> In many places, there is a custom of eating beef during the Frost Descent. For example, in Yulin, Guangxi, the residents are accustomed to the day of Frost Descent. Eat beef fried noodles for breakfast, beef and radish, or beef brisket pot for lunch or dinner to replenish energy and pray for a warm and strong body in the winter. In addition to beef, mutton and rabbit meat are also suitable for Frost Descent. Grapefruit is a warm and nourishing autumn fruit.<br /> During the Frost Descent, the second-stage rice in southern Taiwan has matured and is ready for harvest. It is also the harvest season for grapefruit in Madou Town, Tainan. Grapefruit has the effect of lowering blood pressure and reducing fever. Appreciating Chrysanthemums in Frost Descent <br /> There is an old saying that "chrysanthemums bloom when frost hits them", so climbing mountains and appreciating chrysanthemums has become an elegant activity in the Frost Descent season. The Frost Descent season is when the autumn chrysanthemums are in full bloom. Many places in my country hold chrysanthemum parties at this time, where people appreciate the chrysanthemums and drink wine to show their respect and love for chrysanthemums. Autumn chrysanthemum is a favorite flower of Nanjing people. When sweet-scented osmanthus falls on chrysanthemums, chrysanthemum exhibitions are held in large parks. Residential committees in some communities also organize chrysanthemum parties for chrysanthemum lovers and chrysanthemum growers in the community. Chrysanthemums are red, purple, yellow and pink; some flowers are as big as a bowl, and some are as small as a teacup, forming thousands of patterns, which has become an annual event for flower lovers.
