The days in the palace passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, also called the Shangyuan Festival. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Lantern Festival is a very grand festival in ancient times, the day of Bianjing is full of lanterns, people also make huge lantern wheels, lantern trees, lamp posts, etc., the fire trees and silver flowers all over the city, very prosperous and lively.

The styles of lamps are complex and diverse, and visiting the lamp market is a very pleasing thing to the eye.

Every night of the Lantern Festival, people take to the streets to enjoy lanterns, guess lantern riddles, set off fireworks, set off firecrackers, and enjoy themselves. There are many colorful lanterns on the street, including palace lanterns, horse lanterns, flower lanterns, and bird and animal lanterns...... The lanterns are clustered, competing for beauty, and they are very beautiful. "The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and the stars are like rain", which describes the grand occasion of the Lantern Festival.

Dragon and lion dances, stilts and dry boats, fireworks and Yangge, all kinds of folk activities are varied, everything.

Not only that, in ancient times, the Lantern Festival is actually a Valentine's Day, on this day, parents will be particularly lenient to their children, and the daughter of the boudoir who usually stays at home will also be allowed to go out on this day. To put it bluntly, the Lantern Festival is actually a blind date festival for men and women in ancient times.

On the night of the Lantern Festival, single young men and women took to the streets, in the name of appreciating the lanterns and visiting the flower market, the moon shadow was suspicious of the flowing water, the spring breeze contained the night plum, men and women also tacitly understood each other, they would peek at the opposite sex with the corner of their eyes, and their hearts were up and down, but they were looking forward to the heart-warming fate of "meeting under the lamp", and they had a romantic mood of "looking for her thousands of times, suddenly looking back, but the person was in the lamplight".

This night, Rong Qingqian took Yi and Xiaokui out of the palace and came to the most prosperous Dongjiekou, the young heart is always full of curiosity and exploration, and this is an annual event, if you miss it, you will have to wait for next year.

Xiaokui is the happiest, bouncing like a rabbit, shuttling in the sea of colorful lights.

"Miss, Miss, look at it, this lantern is so beautiful......!

"I prefer the marquee!" "The marquee is usually in the lamp to put a wheel, on it to paste all kinds of people, flowers and birds cut out of colored paper, on the wheel to light the candle, the hot air rises, causing air convection, so that the wheel turns, the paper image also rotates, the picture is continuous, the sense of movement is very strong, fascinating.

The three of them walked and watched, there were noisy crowds everywhere, and when they walked to Yunlai Restaurant, the flow of people was blocked there.

It turned out that Yunlai Restaurant was holding a lantern riddle guessing conference, from the first floor to the fourth floor, everyone can participate, and the difficulty is increasing floor by floor, the first floor is still overcrowded, but there are very few people who can reach the second floor, and it is even rarer to reach the third floor, not to mention the fourth floor, you can guess the ultimate lantern riddle on the fourth floor, not only can you eat and drink for a year in Yunlai Restaurant, but you can also get the supreme lantern hanging on the top floor, a lady lantern.

To say that this lady marquee lamp, that is really the best in the lantern, it is glazed material, there are six sides, each side is painted with a vivid lady picture, with the rotation of the lamp, the lady in the picture seems to be alive as if the general movement, dancing, and even the expression is vivid, a will be charming and affectionate, a will be sad and lingering.

This is not the most peculiar, the most peculiar thing is that with the rotation of the lamp, there are bursts of pleasant music and a faint fragrance, which is really a sound and shape.

All the ladies present were dumbfounded, of course, except for the clothes, after all, in the 21st century with advanced science and technology, nothing high-tech has ever been seen, so it is not strange.

But obviously Rong Qingqian and Xiaokui were deeply attracted and couldn't take a step.

Such a wonderful treasure, even if you can't get it, you want to see who has the ability to take it into your pocket.

"Miss, let's try it too! Even if you can't get that superb marquee, it's good to get one at random. Xiaokui is right, the lanterns in Yunlai Restaurant, any one of them is much more exquisite than the ones sold outside, how can she not be eager to try.

Rong Qingqian's temperament is quite similar to Xiaokui, the same innocent, lively and playful with a bit of heroism. It's just that she was born in such a deep mansion compound, and she was deceived everywhere, so she had to restrain her true temperament and disguise herself as a calm and sophisticated appearance to deal with those relatives who were like wolves and tigers, but as soon as she came to her trusted friends, she was exposed, and her temperament of daring to love and hate made people feel very comfortable.

Xiao Kui's proposal is exactly what Rong Qingqian wants, and the teenage girl is also a fun age.

"Martial arts?" Rong Qingqian gently read out the riddle.

"This is too difficult, isn't it?" Xiaokui is illiterate, and this kind of anagram is undoubtedly a book of heaven for her. "This riddle should not be 'white and fat, often hidden in the mud, covered in honeycomb, raw and cooked. 'Is that like that?' "She's still good at it."

"If it were that simple, everybody went up to the top floor. ”

"Isn't that obviously embarrassing?" Xiao Kui was extremely frustrated, but her young lady should be able to.

Rong Qingqian ripped off the mystery and recruited a little two. Xiao Er handed over a pen, Rong Qingqian wrote the mystery on the paper, folded it in half and handed it to Xiao Er, Xiao Er held the paper into the inner room, and after a while, he came out and bowed respectfully to Rong Qingqian.

"Congratulations, young lady, you got it right. Do you want to take the lantern next, or do you want to go up to the second floor? If you fail to do so, then sorry, you can't take the lantern with you. But if you stop there, you can take this lantern with you now. You see if you continue or ......"

"We continue. Rong Qingqian gave an answer without thinking about it.

"Then Miss, please go up to the second floor. Xiao Er took Rong Qingqian and the three of them to the stairs, motioned for the guards of the stairs to let them go, and bowed down to go downstairs.

The management system of Yunlai Restaurant is very rigorous, and employees evaluate their ability through monthly assessments, which is a bit similar to the evaluation system of modern companies.

Generally speaking, the one who serves on the first floor is the lowest level of Xiao Er, and so on, the higher the quality and business ability of Xiao Er, the higher they go, and they have clear rights and responsibilities between each other, and they do not encroach on each other, so the Xiao Er just now can't step into the second floor.

The reason why Jayi knows so clearly is because Qiao Ao has just passed the assessment this month and is now working on the second floor, speaking of which, her younger brother is also very powerful, and he can go up to the second floor in just one month, which is also rare in the history of Yunlai Restaurant.

"Miss, what is the mystery just now?"

"Jay, you should have guessed it, right? Tell that stupid girl!"

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be the word 'Fei', 'Wu' is the meaning of non-Wen, and the combination of non-and Wen should be a 'Fei' word. Yi explained with a smile.

Xiaokui didn't seem to understand, "It's too difficult, you guys are so smart, Miss said that I was a stupid girl, and I was really right." ”

"There is just a specialization in the art industry, and everyone's strengths are different, so let's just say that if we win the game now, then we will become stupid girls. ”

The three of them talked and laughed and went to the second floor.
