Zhou Furong was still a little dissatisfied, saying that it would be better to make the kind of bench that can lie down, but now this kind can only sit two people. Ye Caiping said that it was just right for the Chu family to squeeze in. Who would dare to sit with Zhou Furong there? I'm afraid that the top won't be able to bear it.

After Professor Wen and the others came back, they were stunned for a moment when they saw the two swings suddenly added under the longan tree, and then said with a smile: "You guys, all of you are still young, but you are so lazy, so you try to find ways to enjoy it." ”

He really had nothing to say, he found that this group of people was actually the same character as Chu Jiaqiang, they were all idle, idle, and not too ambitious people, no wonder they could get together a bunch, this may be the rumored people who gather like groups and things! Of course, Ye Caiping is a girl, and he is not good at evaluating her.

"You guys! Beware of playthings! Fu Lao also shook his head and smiled bitterly. These old guys are still running around for their own obsessions, but they don't want the young people of today to be loose to this extent.

"We don't have ambitions, where are the playthings? The old man was too worried. Zhou Furong said.

"Ahem! You said you could do it yourself, why did you drag us all into the water? We have ambitions. Li Quan and the others hurriedly drew a line with Zhou Furong.

Speaking of swings, Fu Lao gave these young people a long insight. Swings not only change according to the times, but also have different ways to play in different places and ethnic groups.

Toward. The Xian people are one of the most popular traditional competitive amusement activities, which are often held at festivals and sometimes in competitions. During the festival, the girls wear colorful dresses in bright colors. Gather around the swing and compete for the high, and only the selected experts can participate in the sports meeting. During the competition, a string of golden copper bells is hung on the ribbon in the sky, and the contestants swing to see who can touch the copper bells. The more times you encounter it, the higher your score. Flowing long skirts, jingling bells. Thrilling swing, breathtaking.

Platform. The people of the Bay Gaoshan people call the swing "Miaomiao", which means "flying to the sky". This is the same as the traditional understanding of swings by the Han people.

Cloud. South, Northwest and Sichuan. The swing custom of the Nannaxi people is commonly known as the "swing meeting". The swing in the eastern part of the Naxi ethnic group is mostly held from the first day to the fourth day of the first month of the summer calendar every year, and the western part starts on the sixth day of the first month and lasts for 4~5 days.

Qing Dynasty "Yanyuan Bamboo Branches" cloud: "High hanging color frame to connect the clouds, celebrate the new year better than the old year; The sisters dressed up to compete for beauty, and Qianlang threw the rope to send the swing. In the Baisha Village area of Lijiang, the bride who got married often tied the handrail of the swing with a red rope and entertained the swingers with snacks and melon seeds, so as to seek peace and auspiciousness.

Forever. On the last day of the "swing party", young women will prepare a banquet to entertain the young men who come to the swing race. During the banquet, the men wiped the woman's face with a pot of smoke, chased each other and frolicked, and used the smear as an auspicious thing. Legend has it that in ancient times, during the "swing party", the devil came to catch beautiful women. Later, because of this method to cover the face and prevent ghosts, it became another custom in the meeting.

Chu Jiaqiang and the others were dumbfounded when they heard this, how did this swing change as they spoke, and there was no original taste and meaning of the swing at all. Maybe. This is why the beliefs of different places and peoples are different!

"In fact, there is also a swing play, which was quite popular in the Jiangnan area before, and you may have heard of it, that is, the water swing." Professor Wen said with a smile.

This kind of activity appeared during the Song Dynasty, whether it was in Jinmingchi in Bianliang, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. Or in the Southern Song Dynasty capital Lin'an West Lake, Qiantang River, this kind of acrobatic performance has been held. When the water swing performance is held in summer, everyone from the emperor's concubines, princes and ministers, to the common people, compete to watch.

The performance is preceded by two large, beautifully carved boats in the water, with a swing frame erected high on the bow. During the performance, the drums are beating, and the jugglers on the stern of the boat first practice the rods, and then the performers climb the swings in order and swing around. When the swing reached the level of the beam of the swing frame, they took off the rope with both hands, jumped into the air with the power of the swing's reverberation, somersaulted in the air, and then plunged into the water.

Due to the different postures of the performers, it looks thrilling and beautiful, and it is endlessly varied. "Water Swing" is similar to modern diving, which is a new development of acrobatics in the Song Dynasty, occupies an important position in the history of Chinese acrobatics, and has a great influence on later generations.

"By the way, what about the red panda!" Fu Lao asked, he glanced around, he didn't find the red panda, he still had to see the red panda's injuries.

"I was still there just now, but I don't know now." Chu Jiaqiang also did not find the red panda.

"It looks like I went out with Komatsu." Ye Caiping replied. When Chu Jiaqiang went out before, the little squirrel ran towards the river beach with the red panda, and he didn't know where to go.

It's not surprising that little squirrels go out almost every day, because people have a sense of food crisis every day. Red pandas rarely go out, often eating and playing with everyone, or sleeping on their stomachs on trees. I actually ran out today, and everyone thought that this wouldn't be the head of the little squirrel, right?

Xiao Jin also goes out a lot, but this guy doesn't know what to do when he goes out? Anyway, I still go home every day to eat, and I definitely don't go out to find food. However, this guy is still a "citizen" who keeps to himself. Unlike that wren brother, he flew all over the village, and when he was hungry, he came back to look for food, and if Chu Jiaqiang didn't give it, he stole it, anyway, it wasn't one or two crimes. The snow sculpture doesn't stay at home much, and often wanders the world, but people have never let Chu Jiaqiang worry about it, and from time to time he brings some game back to give Chu Jiaqiang a tooth sacrifice.

At this time, Mrs. Wan came back from the back of the house with a red panda in her hand. The red panda is catching a sugarcane that is not yet in the climate, which was planted by Chu Jiaqiang two months ago, and now it is not as tall as a person with leaves.

"This little guy seems to like to eat sugar cane! Even the leaves are eaten. Mrs. Wan smiled.

Everyone came back to their senses, and it was not uncommon for red pandas to eat sugar cane. Like the giant panda, it likes to eat bamboo, and sugarcane is naturally better. The little guy seemed to know that he was in trouble, and looked at everyone with a blank eye.

Seeing the little guy's expression, Chu Jiaqiang couldn't scold it for two sugarcanes that didn't make a climate.

Fu Lao took the red panda and prepared to take away the sugarcane. The red panda was in a hurry, and called again and again, holding the sugarcane firmly and not letting Fu Shenglin take it away.

"Huh! Don't worry, you little one! Nobody wants your stuff, put it first. Chu Jiaqiang smiled, reached out and took the sugarcane, and asked Fu Lao to check the red panda.

Chu Jiaqiang made a move, although the red panda was a little unwilling, but it was just a little aggrieved, and there was not much resistance, and obediently let Fu Shenglin do the examination first.
