Qixi Festival, a traditional festival in China, although there is no Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming dynasties, but the myths and legends are the same. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
There is the poignant love of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and there is also the immortal spirit of Kua's father.
On this night, the women of Daqi will beg for wisdom and wisdom from Vega in their own courtyards, as well as the customs of threading needles and begging, praying for blessings and longevity, worshipping the Seventh Sister, and displaying flowers and fruits.
The lantern festival is an indispensable program for Qixi Festival, young men and women can invite peers at this time, tell each other about their favor, and young talents also have the opportunity to show their talents at various poetry meetings at this time, but it is also very lively.
As soon as the lanterns are on, many people go out into the street, and there are all kinds of lanterns on both sides of the street, and under the lanterns are interesting lantern riddles, hanging wakily, and pedestrians can take off the lantern riddles as long as they stretch out their hands.
There are not many people reading in Ningyuan County, and in previous years, it was not very lively, that is, ordinary people just went out for a walk at night.
However, due to Mo Qian's continuous publicity, and the construction has been accelerated, and the infrastructure in the city has been continuously improved, so this Qixi Lantern Festival has attracted a lot of foreign talents.
"How's it going? Ma Gongzi, can you guess this lantern riddle? A man in a brocade robe said to another person beside him.
The man was a young man of about twenty-four or five years old, but his body was a little fat, and he wore gold and silver, and at first glance he was either rich or expensive.
At this time, the man was holding a note in his hand, his face was flushed, and there were words in his mouth, "Untie the three autumn leaves, and you can bloom February flowers." Thousands of feet of waves across the river, into the bamboo thousands of poles oblique...... What the hell is this, what the hell is this? ā
"If Ma Gongzi can't figure it out, why don't you let Dai try it? It is also not good to delay Ma Gongzi's time. ā
The man in brocade spoke again just now, although he said it humbly, but there was pride in his tone that could not be concealed.
For such a wealthy businessman, do you dare to compete with your own talent to guess the riddle? Isn't this self-inflicted?
Seeing that the fat man didn't take care of himself, Dai Heng said again: "Although Ma Gongzi's research spirit is admirable to us, he was born in a merchant family, and he deals with copper-smelling things all day long, and it is forgivable that he can't write and write articles, but now there is a beautiful woman with him, Ma Gongzi, if you continue like this, it will be a beautiful woman." ā
Dai Heng quietly glanced at the riddle in Ma Yue's hand, and scolded in his heart, who came up with such a problem.
He didn't try to solve the riddle, but fortunately, there was a fool in front of him who rushed to the head, even if he couldn't solve the riddle, but Zhizhu was taunting him with a look, which was also out of the limelight.
Dai Heng glanced at the two women beside him with his spare eyes, these are the beauties of the Water Pavilion.
Although she is just a woman in the Water Pavilion, she also took a lot of effort to use her identity as a showman, plus Ma Yue's large amount of money to invite them to accompany her to the Lantern Festival.
You must know that the Water Pavilion is the largest green building in Jian'an Mansion, but it is backed by the prefect, and the female identity of the Water Pavilion is also higher than that of ordinary Qinglou women, of course, the appearance and temperament are not comparable to the ordinary Qinglou.
As for the top girl of the Water Pavilion Fei Yan, they didn't dare to think of it.
The two beauties stood aside with a smile, their waists and limbs were full, like a fine willow in the wind, unbearable to hold, especially the straight and plump buttocks, and the moving curves of the walk, which attracted people's souls.
Dai Heng squinted his eyes and looked at them, and secretly said in his heart, if he can get the favor of these two people, and then get the spring breeze and one night, the golden wind and jade dew, this taste is that he is willing to let him lose his life.
"Ma Gongzi doesn't have to be reluctant, this lantern riddle is just a thing of leisure and entertainment, and it is just an interest to play, if it is sad for a lantern riddle, it is not worth it."
Jing Xuan on the side said softly, the rules of the Water Pavilion made her maintain a gentle and elegant posture at all times.
"It's out, it's out!" Ma Yue looked at it for a long time and finally figured it out.
Dai Heng looked at Ma Yue suspiciously, could it really be that he came up with it?
When did he become so smart?
No, I must not let him steal the limelight.
Kindly held Ma Yue's hand, "Haha, Brother Ma, don't be embarrassed, if you can't solve it, it doesn't matter, let's go and solve the next riddle, don't be reluctant, here are all reasonable people, you are a businessman's son, it's normal that you can't solve it, we won't make fun of you, just read more sage articles in the future." ā
Every sentence in Dai Heng's words seemed to be for Ma Yue's sake, but in every sentence, he was belittling Ma Yue and elevating himself.
He tried hard to pull Ma Yue aside, but Ma Yue was stout after all, and when he struggled slightly, he shook off Dai Heng's hand.
This scene fell in the eyes of the two women next to her, and they both shook their heads secretly.
They have been in the Fengyue Field for a long time, how can they not know the thoughts of Dai Heng and Ma Yue.
The two originally thought that this Dai Heng was a showman, and he had a lot of money from Ma Yue, so they were willing to come out to accompany him.
I didn't expect the two of them to be so unbearable, and they were jealous all the way, which really made the two of them feel a headache.
Ma Yue proudly broke free of Dai Heng's hand, shook the fat all over his body, made a toast to invite the moon, and said loudly: "This mystery is ......"
"Crossing the river for thousands of feet, into the bamboo and ten thousand poles? Wind! It's so easy! ā
Mo Qian looked at the note in his hand, pursed his lips, and threw the note back to its place.
I didn't notice Ma Yue's eyes about to eat people three steps away, as well as the surprised looks of Dai Heng and Jing Xuan.
Ma Yue wanted to go up and teach this stinky boy who didn't know what to do, but the mystery he finally came up with was solved by him, which was really unreasonable.
Of course, Mo Qian didn't know what Ma Yue was thinking, and he then picked up the next riddle.
"The rain is hard to extinguish, and the wind blows brighter. If it flies to the sky, it will be a moon star...... Fireflies, do you still need to think about this? Why are people in this era so unlevel? ā
Mo Qian turned his head to look at Senior Bai not far away.
If you say yes, you have to make a bet with yourself, who guesses more riddles.
Now I have guessed dozens of riddles, but Senior Bai is still entangled in the first riddle.
Is this the strength of the "No. 1 lantern riddle master of Taoism" he said?
Combat power is equal to air!
Then he picked up a lantern riddle and read it out in his mouth: "The merits of the people of heaven are not endless, and it is rare to have merit without luck." Because of the chaos in the town, just because the number of yin and yang is different, hit an object. Simple ......"
"Slow, this brother, guessing the lantern riddle is a matter for us literati to cultivate our temperament, if you solve the lantern riddle like you, what fun is there at all, Your Excellency does this, it is inevitably a little unpleasant."
Dai Heng looked at the two women beside him staring at Mo Qian with ripples, and his heart tightened, but he didn't dare to let Mo Qian continue to solve it any longer, otherwise he would have worked hard to invite the beautiful woman out, wouldn't he have made a dowry for others?
"Looking at Your Excellency's words and deeds, you must also be a scholar, I don't know if you have achieved fame?"
Dai Heng looked at Mo Qian vigilantly, this person can guess the lantern riddle so easily, he must also be a person with quick thinking, and he may also be a talent.
As for the higher fame, Dai Heng didn't think much about it, after all, in the inferior county of Ningyuan County, there are not even many talents, let alone a higher fame.
Besides, this person is so young, if he can achieve fame, I am afraid it will be the limit.
Mo Qian also shook his head as he wished.
Just kidding, he is a county magistrate from a dignified jinshi, what the hell is this showman?
It's just that he is not in the mood to entangle with Dai Heng now, and he has been thinking about the bet with Senior Bai just now in his heart.
That's a yellow-level top-grade martial art!
Do you want to consider letting him have a few, pretend to be equal to his strength, and then gamble a few more times?
