Chapter 112: Flower Dynasty Event
Spring is full of vitality and vitality.
The coldest winter has passed, the snow and ice have melted, and something is quietly changing.
Bai Qiuchi has been living in the Yu family for a few months.
With his blockbuster success at the Chongyang Festival Chrysanthemum Picking Conference and his excellent performance in the Qianyang Sect after him, Bai Qiuchi's reputation quickly spread, and many people knew that there was a young man with a talent for martial arts who lived in Yucang's house.
Yi Jue is mixed about this, and the good thing is that Bai Qiuchi can use this to lay an interpersonal foundation and win people's hearts; What worries me is that I am afraid that he will "make a big move" and attract the attention of people with ulterior motives.
In the past few months, Lu Chen has been secretly competing with him, and his sudden studious performance made his father Lu Yang very happy, and invited him to a lot of good teachers, and he also calmed down that he had not "harassed" Yu Tear in the past few months. Now that he has some achievements, he was afraid that Yu Tear Rainbow would forget him, so he chose a day to invite Yu Tear Rainbow to go out to play.
This day is another major event in Suzhou City - the Flower Dynasty Festival.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The faint fragrance of the incense burner came, and the light smoke filled.
"The birthday of a hundred flowers is a good day, and the flowers are half of spring. Thousands of purples and thousands of reds are draped in splendor, and Shang Lao is embellished with the god of flowers. Yu Tear Rainbow recited the poem about the Flower Dynasty Festival, and the purse with the pattern of colorful butterflies and flowers was flexibly embroidered on the top of her hand.
Her skills as a female worker are getting better and better.
"Miss, it's time to prepare." The maid Zhenqing called softly.
"Okay. You go and help me see what Brother Chi is doing now. Yu Tear stopped her needlework and stood up.
"Yes." Zhenqing answered and went down.
"Miss, here are the clothes and accessories prepared for the Flower Dynasty Festival." The maid Wanqing led the feather tear rainbow to the inner room, "These are all prepared by the master and the young master for the young lady." ”
"It's really bothering my dad and brother." Feather Tears is very happy.
The Flower Dynasty Festival is the favorite festival of girls, so it is natural to dress up.
There are three sets of newly made dresses in the room, all of which are tailor-made by Yucang and their skilled tailors, a set of gauze skirts with gradient colors, with many pink flowers decorated on them; One was a light green and pink skirt embroidered with a pattern of flowers in full bloom; One set is an apricot long dress with light blue half-sleeves embroidered with cute butterflies and small flowers.
Yu Tear Hong looked at it, each set was an elegant color scheme she liked, and it was really difficult to choose.
"Tear Rainbow! Tear rainbow! There was a shout from outside the house.
"It's Young Master Lu who is here." The maid Zhenqiao came in from the door to report.
How is Lu Chen, he doesn't seem to have appeared for a long time.
"Mr. Lu." Feather tears and rainbow bowed.
"Tear Rainbow, why are you so different from me, call me Brother Chen!" Lu Chen has grown a little taller again, he is six years older than Tear Rainbow, and he will be seventeen years old this year.
Yu Tear lowered her head and didn't speak, although she was no longer afraid of Lu Chen, but she didn't like him either.
"Look, I've brought you something!" Lu Chen didn't see Yu Tearhong's attitude, and when she was shy, he took out the beautifully embroidered cloth bag he had prepared.
"What is this?" Holding the cloth bag that was hard-stuffed in his hand, Yu Tear Rainbow didn't really want to open it.
"This is the dress I asked the tailor to make for you, open it and take a look!" Lu Chen smiled happily.
"Mr. Lu is out of the bank, I already have a few dresses, I don't need ......" Yu Tear Hong refused.
"These few pieces of yours are not gorgeous at all, they are not good-looking!" Lu Chen's clothes said in a tone that could not be refused, "Quickly change into the one I prepared for you and go with me to enjoy the flowers!" ”
actually said that the clothes prepared for her by her father and brother were not good-looking, Yu Tear Hong was very angry, and in order to show politeness, she didn't show it. Moreover, she didn't want to go out with Lu Chen at all.
"Look, my dress is inlaid with pearls and precious stones, and you will definitely catch the eye when you wear it!" Seeing that she didn't move, Lu Chen diligently opened the cloth bag and took out the big red pomegranate skirt to show Yu Tear Rainbow, there were indeed sparkling gems on it.
"Thank you Lu Gongzi for your kindness, I won't accept such a valuable gift, you might as well choose someone else." Feather Tear made a "please" gesture.
"What? You can't not accept what this son gave you. Lu Chen stepped forward aggressively.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mr. Lu, please go back." But it was Bai Qiuchi's voice.
He had promised Yu Tear to go to the Flower Dynasty Festival with her, so he came over with Zhenqing.
"It's you again! Why are you still here? As soon as Lu Chen saw Bai Qiuchi, he became angry.
He actually lived in Tear Rainbow's house for nothing, and he mixed up a little fame, and the most annoying thing was that Tear Rainbow turned to him.
Anyway, no matter which one is found, it is a thorn in Lu Chen's heart.
Now Lu Chen thinks that he has also learned some skills, he is almost seventeen years old, where is he afraid of a thirteen-year-old doll?
"What are you doing here? Tear Rainbow is going to go to the Flower Dynasty Festival with me. "Lu Chen wants to strike first.
Bai Qiuchi looked at Yu Tear Rainbow, and Tear Rainbow just shook his head.
"Looks like Tear doesn't want to go with you." Bai Qiuchi said the answer that Lu Chen didn't want to admit very directly.
Lu Chen was not very happy to see the tearful rainbow's expression, and he was afraid that she would hate herself in the future if she was stimulated, so he said, "Bai Qiuchi, do you dare to compete with me." If I win, Tear Rainbow will go with me to the Flower Dynasty Festival today. ”
"I'm not like you." Bai Qiuchi said so.
It's not that you don't dare, but you don't compare.
Lu Chen was so angry that he vomited blood, and couldn't help asking, "Why?" ”
"Tear Rainbow didn't want to go with you in the first place."
"Boom-" Lu Chen was furious.
Lu Chen told himself in his heart to be calm, calm!
Yu Tear Rainbow stood behind Bai Qiuchi, and now that it was over, Lu Chen had no choice but to leave first.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It's okay, you can get ready." Bai Qiuchi confirmed that Lu Chen was gone, and comforted Yu Tearful.
"Thank you, Brother Chi." Yu Tear Hong was happy in her heart, she knew that Bai Qiuchi had the strength to win against Lu Chen, but because of her respect, she didn't know Lu Chen at all.
"I'll go outside and keep watch, and call me if there's anything you need to help with." Bai Qiuchi nodded and went out.
Yu Tear Hong changed her clothes with the help of Zhenqing and them, put on a pair of cute butterfly buns, and then put on a shell flower tassel hairpin, and added a few pink flowers to the back, which matched her pink dress.
"Brother Chi, I'm ready." Yu Tear Rainbow went out, and Bai Qiuchi was waiting for her outside the door.
Yu Tear Rainbow was wearing the pink gauze skirt, and the flowers on it made her whole body pink. During this time, she practiced her luck according to the persistence taught by Bai Qiuchi, and her face was now slightly pink, and her lips were a little bloody. The fluttering eyelashes are as light and lovely as the wings of a butterfly, and the eye waves are like fairies.
Bai Qiuchi was a little stunned.
"Let's go."
Yu Tear Hong took the lead, and Bai Qiuchi helped her hold the basket and followed.
--------------------------------------------------------------
The Flower Dynasty Festival is to commemorate the birthday of the hundred flowers, referred to as the Flower Dynasty, commonly known as the "Flower God Festival", "Hundred Flowers Birthday", "Flower God Birthday", "Picking Vegetables Festival", is a traditional festival of the Han nationality.
During the festival, people go to the suburbs to visit and enjoy the flowers, called "walking green", and the girls cut five-colored paper and stick it on the flower branches, which is called "appreciating red". Although it is not a clear daughter's day, it is also known as a girls' meeting among the people, and girls also take this opportunity to get together to play, get to know each other and make friends. The women who have not left the pavilion love to worship the god of flowers, eat flower cakes, perform flower orders, and pray that they are as vibrant and beautiful as flowers.
It is the first warm and cold, the spring back to the earth, a scene full of vitality.
On this day, the streets are also crowded, especially girls, who are dressed up very beautifully. Some are holding flowers, and some are in groups, talking and laughing. Their dresses are decorated with flowers, and their heads are also purple and red, according to their dresses and their favorite flower gods, with a lot of beautiful flowers.
The street vendors selling silk flowers and flowers are also very busy today, busy spraying flowers and posing to attract more people.
"Let's go to the flower temple first, visit the flower market, then go to the green to pick flowers, go back to make flower cakes in the afternoon, and go to enjoy the lanterns in the evening." Feather Tear Rainbow arranged this day to the full.
If she didn't dare to think that she could recover her health and participate in these lively activities like other girls, it was really thanks to Bai Qiuchi. After he came, Yu Tearhong's complexion and mood improved. Yu Cang also admires this child very much, with this good friend, his daughter's body and spirit are much better than before, and he also helps himself share a lot, so he is very relieved to have Bai Qiuchi and Yu Tear Rainbow go out.
There are two ways to worship the god of flowers, one is to go to the temple of flowers to burn incense, and the other is to worship under the flower tree. In the city of Suzhou, these two methods are carried out at the same time.
Yu Tear Hong planned to go to the lively flower temple to burn incense first, donate sesame oil money, and then take Bai Qiuchi to the flower market.
"It seems like there's a lot more people here." White Autumn Pond Road.
"Yes, everyone wants to make a wish to the god of flowers! Brother Chi, let's come here! "Feather Tear Rainbow took Bai Qiuchi to the statue temple dedicated to the god of flowers.
"These statues are beautifully carved." Bai Qiuchi praised.
These gods are beautiful and moving women, their expressions are full of gentleness, calmness, and their movements are natural and lifelike. The smoke of flowers and incense in the temple wafted out of the incense burner, as if dancing a smart dance, which made people feel refreshed and calm. Cakes, fruits, flower teas, and various flowers are enshrined on the table, all of which represent people's belief in the god of flowers.
"There are different sayings about the twelve flower gods in each place, for example, we have plum blossoms in the first month, apricot blossoms in February, peach blossoms in March, roses in April, pomegranate flowers in May, lotus flowers in June, daffodils in July, osmanthus in August, chrysanthemums in September, hibiscus flowers in October, camellia in November, plum blossoms in December. Each flower has a different person as the god of flowers...... "Feather Tear Rainbow introduces Bai Qiuchi one by one.
"Damn, they're so close!" Hiding in the shadows, Lu Chen gritted his teeth viciously.
