Volume 1 Jinghua Fengyun (I) Chapter 87 The Little Year of the Lunar Month
Thousands of mountains and snow rise in the morning, and Hongfei falls for nine days.
It is another year of wax moon, and every household worships the New Year.
In the blink of an eye, it is the 24th day of the lunar month, which is the small year season when the whole people celebrate.
The people from the north and south of the river, on this day, are lively and solemn at home to paste Spring Festival couplets, cut window flowers, and sacrifice to the god of the stove.
Legend has it that every year today, the god of the stove will go up to heaven to report the good and evil of each family to the Jade Emperor, so that the Jade Emperor can reward and punish. Therefore, when the stove is delivered, the people will place the stove candy and other tributes on the table in front of the statue of the stove god, so that the mouth of the stove god will be glued with the stove sugar, so as not to lose the merits of the last day.
For this reason, this day is also called the "Matsuri Festival".
Lu Chengfeng grew up in Biyun Valley, although the master will worship the god of the stove on the 24th day of the lunar month every year, but it is not as lively as half of this Jinghua City.
Today, after Lu Chengfeng got up early in the morning, he watched the palace people in Xifu busy before and after, killing chickens and sheep, sweeping the floor and cleaning windows, pasting Spring Festival couplets, and cutting window flowers......
This festive atmosphere is in full swing, so that the road and the wind are also in a happy mood, smiling.
By noon, the entire Crowned King's West Mansion was already bright and clean, and it was brand new, just waiting for the festive spring to arrive.
The new Spring Festival couplets were pasted all over every lintel of Xifu, exuding wisps of elegant and vibrant ink fragrance.
The newly pasted window flowers are even more exquisite, each window flower is cut lifelike, with its own allusions, a variety of patterns, there are magpies Dengmei, Yanfei peach willow, two dragons playing with pearls, Sanyang Kaitai, six contract spring, phoenix wearing peony......
What attracted Lu Chengfeng's attention the most was the offerings and delicacies that were set up on eight long tables.
I saw that on the long offering table, there were more than a dozen different flavors of stove candy alone! The road to see is dazzling and amazing.
"Wow! This is delicious! This one is delicious, too! ”
Lu Chengfeng shuttled and walked around the colorful stove candy trays, stuffing a lot of stove candy into his mouth, and he didn't forget to praise it.
The palace people looked at his greedy and innocent appearance, he was really a fifteen-year-old boy, not at all like His Royal Highness the Emperor Sun who talked about everything in the mansion on weekdays.
"Your Royal Highness, be careful, don't choke." Jin Buchang laughed as he watched from the sidelines.
"That is, the ritual of worshiping the god of the stove has not yet begun, but it is almost eaten up by you, a big living immortal."
Fluttershy rolls her eyes at the wind, sneering.
......Before Fluttershy could finish speaking, Lu Chengfeng let out a long hiccup.
The crowd burst into laughter.
"After eating so much stove sugar, you are not afraid of sticking your big teeth!" Fluttershy's teeth are sharp, and she smashes.
"You girl! The mouth is quite sharp, or is it a little sharper with hands and feet? Don't hurry up and go to the master again, go to work, go quickly! ”
Lu Chengfeng nudged Fluttershy's head with his fingers and said with a smile on his face.
He has a sweet tooth the most since he was a child, but unfortunately when he was in Biyun Valley, Chasing the Wind always loved to rob him.
It's rare to be alone in the crown king's Xifu today, he is alone, why don't you hurry up and eat sugar alone, eat until you have enough to eat until the world is turned upside down?
"Forehead ......"
Lu Chengfeng patted his stomach contentedly, and another long belch came out.
The happiness of sweets was about to overflow from his body.
Today this is really the best candy I've ever tasted!
In the 21st century, those sugars that are adulterated with too many flavors and pigments are simply incomparable to this original, pure natural and pollution-free thing!
These stove sugars are also much better than the stove sugars in Biyun Valley! Master, my first fifteen years were simply in vain!
If only the wind was chasing here! Let him come to his master's house to taste it, and keep him to eat happily, happy like a fairy!
Ay! It's a pity that chasing the wind is not there!
Why don't you send some to Brother Jingmo to taste, good brothers are blessed to share!
Lu Chengfeng thought as he poured a full plate of candy into the sleeve of Fluttershy's freshly filled plate of candy, and ran away triumphantly.
The angry Fluttershy stamped her feet behind him, but she could only stare dryly.
"Where is the little emperor's grandson? Do you have to preside over the sacrificial ceremony today? ”
Steward Jin had no choice but to stretch his neck and shout anxiously behind him with his throat pulled.
"You do it for me! If that's not enough, let Niu Sanbao pretend to be me! ”
Lu Chengfeng raised his arms above his head without looking back, and made a gesture of worship, leaving only a dashing back for the palace people in Xifu.
"Brother Jingmo, are you sacrificing?"
Lu Chengfeng came out of Jingzhao Mansion when he didn't know why, and a flash appeared, bringing a chill outside, and in a blink of an eye, it had already appeared in front of Wu Jingmo's eyes.
Seeing that he was kneeling, Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but grab a handful of stove candy from the small white porcelain plate on the table and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Well, your stove candy is not as delicious as mine!"
Lu Chengfeng commented on the road, and chewed the handful of stove candy in his mouth vigorously.
"Phew! Ouch, my teeth are about to burst! Brother Jingmo, where did you buy the sugar, why is it so hard! Is this still a candy? Don't go to his door again in the future, what a black-hearted shop! I'm going to give him a bad review! Bah! ”
I saw that he hadn't chewed a few bites, but he spit them all out, and his mouth was still chattering with disgust.
Wu Jingmo and Wu Renzhong were still kneeling in front of the table.
Wu Renzhong, who has always been one-eyed, looked at it, and blew his beard and glared at him directly.
Wu Jingmo couldn't help but smile and glanced at him hard.
The look was as if he had rolled his eyes. Lu Chengfeng wanted to laugh even more after seeing it, so he smiled and said:
"Hey! Brother Jingmo, I brought you a lot of stove candy! It's so much better than yours! Get up and taste it! If I lie to you, I'm a puppy! ”
As Lu Chengfeng spoke, he took out a large handful of colorful stove candy from his sleeve and put it on the table in front of Wu Jingmo's eyes.
The Wu family's sacrificial stove ceremony has not yet ended, so it was disturbed by Lu Chengfeng.
Wu Jingmo had no choice but to stand up, pick up Lu Chengfeng's collar and drag him out.
"Oops! Kure-sama! You are a literati, pay attention to your image! When did you become so rude? It must have been damaged by that Tianzifang! He has only been here for a day, and he has taught you badly, see if I don't help you cut him! ”
Lu Chengfeng kicked his legs and shouted loudly.
But I heard a familiar voice behind me:
"Who's speaking ill of me?"
Lu Chengfeng was busy and looked back, he really drank cold water and stuffed his teeth, scolding who was caught by whom!
I saw that the person who came with the wind and snow whistling outside the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he began to take off the armor of the government soldiers on his body, and he shook off the colorful snow white on the ground.
As soon as the man raised his head, he laughed and laughed, and was very happy!
That's right, the person who came was Tian Zifang!
"Brother Tian! Yo! It's really you! It's only been a day, and you're already the leader of the government soldiers? Awesome, awesome! ”
Lu Chengfeng glanced at the armor on his body, and hurriedly patted his ass to make up for his gaffe just now.
"Everywhere, it's all thanks to Lord Wu!"
Tian Zifang said, and made a gesture towards Wu Jingmo.
Immediately, he turned to Lu Chengfeng and patted his chest proudly, and said with a smile:
"Lord Wu arranged for me to be a small leader for them, and the original team of small soldiers was still not convinced! It's just that they were beaten down by me after three times and five divided by two, haha, no one dares to be unconvinced! Now they are all rushing to learn kung fu from me! ”
"Brother Tian's skills, I think it's okay to be a general!"
Lu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows at Tian Zifang and said with a smile.
"Hahahaha, by the auspicious words of His Royal Highness, if I really become a general one day, I will definitely invite you to go to the wine fairy residence and drink his mother for three days and three nights!"
As soon as he wore this high hat, Tian Zifang laughed even louder and heroic.
"It's a deal!" Lu Chengfeng patted him on the shoulder and said.
"That can't be without me!" Wu Jingmo also joined the army of top hats.
On the Jingzhao Mansion, there was a smile in the eye.
