Hello everyone, welcome to『千里之外』(qiān lǐ zhī waì)! A Thousand Miles aims to teach Chinese idioms with historical background, fun facts, and engaging stories with culture perspectives for Chinese language learners or anyone who is interested in Chinese culture. We will start from the very beginning of ancient China, all the way until the modern era. The seventh of the 24 solar terms we are introducing is Xiǎo Mǎn (Grain Buds) is the eighth solar term of the 24 Solar Terms and the second solar term of summer. During this time, crops begin to form grains—small and developing, but not yet fully ripe. Episodes will be uploaded every Monday (English version) and Thursday (Chinese version) teaching the same idiom.
