Although the rebellion in the south has not been quelled, and there are some conflicts with the Western Xia and Khitan from time to time, most places in the Great Song Dynasty are still singing and dancing, a prosperous scene.

The origin of the Spring Festival is no longer examinable, although the Spring Festival of the Great Song Dynasty is not as grand as the Shangyuan Festival, but there is already a custom of eating dumplings, Yang Zheng is not used to eating dumplings with mutton filling, he likes to eat cabbage and pork filling, pork is easy to find, but cabbage is not found, and finally has to find a cabbage like a small cabbage instead.

Yang Zheng is not good at making dumplings, the main force is still Lao Zhang's family, especially Lao Zhang, almost every dumpling is the same. And it's blazing fast.

Yang Zheng was alone for the first three years he came to this world, and only on Chinese New Year's Eve Yang Shu would bring a plate of hot dumplings to his small yard to eat with him.

This year, there are Huyanshan and Ruyi, as well as Lao Zhang's family, and the two families sent by Cao Min to eat dumplings together, if it weren't for Cao Tong who made Cao Min have to go back, Cao Min may have to be added.

He slowly walked out of the confusion and fear of this world, did not deliberately close himself, and began to integrate into this era and this beautiful era.

Since Chinese New Year's Eve, the incessant sound of firecrackers has sounded on the streets of Kaifeng Province, the children have changed into new clothes and gone from house to house, Yang Zheng got a string of copper money from Yang Shu, and the old Zhang family and the two new servants received Yang Zheng's reward of five taels of silver each.

Ruyi politely declined the money given by Yang Zheng, she basically studied and wrote in Xiyuan, became a female celebrity, never left the house, from a radiant Oiran to a lady again, it can be seen that in addition to the revenge, she is very satisfied with her current life.

Huyanshan was not polite, even with Yang Zheng's money bag was taken away by him, usually except for practicing martial arts, he went out secretly to fool around, Yang Zheng didn't care, Ruyi didn't even think he saw it.

After following the poplar tree to drink the men of Yangfu to worship their ancestors, even if the Spring Festival is over, the next is the most solemn festival of the Great Song Dynasty, and it is also the festival that the people yearn for and like the most.

The atmosphere of the Shangyuan Festival has been very strong, every day after dusk, all kinds of lanterns on the Bianhe River in Kaifeng Mansion are lit up one after another, forming a large and small lantern festival, forming a beautiful ribbon on the Bianhe River, the lanterns such as the Qinglou and the restaurant are particularly delicate and beautiful, the lantern will not only have beautiful lanterns, but also some text fans, couplets and other activities.

There is a lantern festival is indispensable to the temple fair, the beautiful lantern will shine the night of Kaifeng Mansion as if it is day, on the street next to the Bianhe River, all kinds of snacks, juggling, singing and dancing performances, and some blonde and blue-eyed foreigners perform magic tricks, after the beginning of the first month, the palace will often make exquisite lanterns to put in the two corridors of the Royal Street, Kaifeng Mansion will also build a big mountain shed with, which is full of carefully made lanterns, so every night, the lanterns of the two corridors of the Royal Street are the most lively.

On the fourteenth day of the first month, the lantern festival in Kaifeng Mansion has reached its peak, Yang Zheng asked Ruyi to change into men's clothes and follow him to visit the temple fair.

Ruyi, who wore men's clothes, also specially put a small beard on her lips, I don't know what method was used, and her chest was also a flat horse, and a mink cloak perfectly covered her throat, and she looked like a beautiful son.

"Yes, when you go to the street, I don't know how many little daughters-in-law you want to charm..."Yang Zheng, who had been waiting at the gate of Xiyuan for a long time, saw Ruyi come out and said sadly, this body can be regarded as handsome, but Ruyi who wears men's clothes has the heroism of a man, and a few traces of the charm of his daughter's family, not only girls like it, but also men.

"Childe, what are you talking nonsense...... Ruyi blushed and said in a low voice.

Fortunately, the light is not very bright, otherwise Yang Zheng is not sure if he will like men in the future.

The two walked slowly along the Bianhe River with the bustling crowd, this is the first time Yang Zheng came to this world for the festival, walking on the street, all kinds of programs are more lively and exciting than the Spring Festival Gala.

Yang Zheng and Ruyi are standing next to a small stage and watching the two girls on the stage dance, the two girls are not dancing on the stage, but dancing on two ropes, dancing quickly and quickly, the feet of the two put on the rope like a phantom, arousing bursts of applause from the audience, and the copper coins fell to the plate on the side as rain.

Yang Zheng also threw a handful of copper coins into it, and seeing the sweaty two get off the rope to thank the audience, he left the stage unsatisfied.

When you come to visit the lantern festival, all kinds of lanterns are the focus of viewing, not only the exquisite lanterns made in order to attract popularity, such as green houses and restaurants, but also some smart vendors will also make lanterns for sale.

The small lanterns are only the size of a palm, and the large ones are several feet high, and the materials used to make them are also diverse, including silk, sheepskin, and fine rice paper.

"Childe, look, lotus lantern!"

The two slowly walked forward with the flow of people, and Ruyi suddenly pointed to the front and said to Yang Zheng excitedly.

Yang Zheng followed Ruyi's fingers to look over, and sure enough, he saw a shelf in front of him full of lotus lanterns, and a group of people around him were pointing at the shelf.

The two squeezed into the crowd to take a look, each lotus lantern has a pair of upper couplets, as long as the lower couplets are paired, the lanterns can be taken away, and the top lanterns are actually made of glass and gemstones.

At this time, there should be no glass manufacturing technology, most of the glass is flowing in from the West, pure glass is worth a lot, just this lantern, the cost is hundreds of taels of silver.

Next to the shelf, an old man with a white beard was lying on a rocking chair, drinking tea leisurely, and an old servant next to him was serving diligently.

A large group of people gathered around the shelf, but no one made the next couplet, one by one around the lanterns to meditate, the lanterns on this shelf are all exquisite and abnormal, and the attraction to tourists is huge.

"Which do you like?"

Yang Zheng looked at Ruyi with a tangled face and kept looking at the lanterns, and asked casually.

These couplets may be more difficult than others, but for him, he can look at these couplets and make the next couplet, not that he is powerful, the network of later generations makes the information explode, in this era of communication all rely on roaring, the information is completely asymmetrical.

"I don't know how thick the sky is..."

I don't know who muttered.

Everyone was thinking about it, Yang Zheng's casual tone was sarcastic in the ears of others, and Ruyi beside him lowered his head in embarrassment.

Yang Zheng shook his head, didn't bother to pay attention to them, turned his head and whispered to Ruyi: "Don't pay attention to them, you can say which one you like..."

"Haha, little girl, I see that your little lover is full of confidence, although you point out, you just want this glass lantern, as long as your little lover comes out, I will also give it with both hands..."

The old man in the recliner next to the two suddenly said with a smile.

"No, we're not...", Ruyi's face turned red as she said in a low voice.

"Hehe, choose it", the old man smiled disappreciatively and encouraged.

"Which do I want..."

Ruyi pointed to a palm-sized lantern next to the glass lantern and said embarrassedly, the lantern is made of silk and silver wire, delicate and elegant.

Yang Zheng looked at the note posted on the lantern, which read "Samsung Sun and Moonlight".
