From the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve to the fifteenth day of the first month, there is no time when people can see enough of the excitement in these four or nine cities.

If this is left in the early years of the Qing Dynasty is still there, but as long as it is a slightly better year, the shopkeeper and proprietor of the trader in the city of Sijiu do not have to wait until the fifth day of the new year.

Asked such a good student to serve, the shopkeeper and the proprietor of the shop and the owner didn't take it too seriously, they all squinted their eyes and shouted at the caring guy and capable subordinates with a bit of a smile: "What's the matter?" There is something to say, something to say! Holding this little look and fiddling here, are you expecting me to give you a wage increase this year? Or are you going to find another high and kick the high branches? ”

I only heard the shopkeeper of the owner's house say such a thing, and the guy who had already made up his mind in his heart suddenly hit the snake with the stick, and then went down the grass donkey, and the voice was a little bit of a person who listened to it and responded comfortably and respectfully: "As far as my little ability, it is also under your old hands, relying on your old heart and good hands, but you can still have a full mouth to eat and a new clothes to wear, if I am no longer satisfied, it is too much to say, isn't it?" ”

"And what are you holding back your idea?"

"It's not the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, is it?"

"Oh...... The fifteenth day of the first lunar month? Isn't it begging for Lantern Festival money? ”

“........ Shopkeeper, are you teasing me? This Lantern Festival has long been left in our shop, and the guy's room is frozen, enough for our shop guys to eat, where can I still ask you for Lantern Festival money? ”

"That'........ The festive money for the opening of the year, didn't I give you a bunch of little rabbits on the fifth day of the new year? The feeling is that the charter will be changed in the city this year? On the fifteenth day of the first month, do you have to reward you again? ”

"Shopkeeper, you ....... I'm not going to play around with you anymore! Isn't this the past year, our shop is doing well? A few of us guys pondered....... The fifteenth day of the first month of this year. Let's make a lantern scene? ”

"Lanterns!? I said, you little bunnies, do you have a stop time? This big year, I lost my soul and scattered my spirit, and I stayed outside and played crazy for several days, but this hasn't made enough trouble? Do you have to go to the street to bump into this excitement? Besides, the money for this lantern is not a small number. This money....... How many of you little cubs dig it? ”

"It's not ...... The shopkeeper said that this New Year's lantern was the fire of the West, which illuminated the divine path of Marshal Zhao Gong of the Black Tiger Xuantan. What we ask for is that our shop is prosperous this year, and the shopkeeper will make a fortune in the treasure sea! You want to ........"

"What is the fire of the West? And the Black Tiger Xuantan Marshal Zhao Gong asked you to come out? Come on, just look at your boy's hard work, and reward you with face - ten oceans on the public middle school account, and you little rabbits will make trouble! But there is one thing, if this is enough at night, I will doze off one by one when I look at the shops and do business during the day....... You're all careful to top the melon skin! ”

"Gotcha...... Thank you for the shopkeeper's reward! But....... The shopkeeper, these ten oceans can also make a lantern scene, but the shop next door has already invited the little master in the lantern alley to come over and set up the lantern archway? I heard that it cost fifteen dollars of artisan craftsmanship money. The lantern archway is made of good lake silk lantern noodles, as well as the font size of the shop next door, and the scene and hands are full of arrogance......."

"Hey...... This Fuyue is really on track with me, isn't it? It's all about the lake silk silk business, who can still have a short lake silk silk thing? Twenty yuan was paid on the public middle school account, and Ma Yuer went to Lantern Hutong to respectfully ask the master to come and set up a lantern archway! There is also this year's newly harvested carmine lake silk, which is also broken out and used! On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of this year, we either don't mix it up, or we have to play a provocative role! ”

Gentlemen in Forty-Nine City. Originally, there was no bad face, especially in front of people, and he paid attention to losing money without losing face, and sacrificing his life without giving up his prestige. The shops are so comparative. When it was dark on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the large arm-thick butter candles in the lanterns everywhere on the street were suddenly lit, and they were bright and could burn all night. After three more rounds of the whip that had been prepared, the lanterns of each house were crowded into the streets.

Since there is an idea of showing off and comparing prices in my heart, each shop and the lantern on the street naturally have their own exquisiteness. Your family has a golden rooster to report the dawn, I am here to prepare a boy to send wealth, Fu Lu Shou three stars just walked by, Guanyin Buddha Bodhisattva has long come. Enshrine the Dragon King of the Four Seas, but pray for smooth weather in the coming year, bow to the eight immortals, cross the sea, and wish to be at ease in the future.......

Walking all the way on the street, the lanterns that really stood out naturally flocked to the front in the continuous applause, and the lanterns that were a little worse were cheered next to the movements. No matter how thick-skinned and deaf you are, you can't walk two streets. That can also make the movement of cheering around him urge Ba to find a moment to snuff out the butter candle in the lantern, and then find an excuse for the butter candle to burn to the head, crash into a deserted alley, get in and throw down the lantern in his hand, but his eyes are still staring at the boiling hot scene on the street.

After a while, the soles of the characters who crashed into the alley were already slipping as if they had stepped on sesame oil, and they involuntarily chased in the direction of the lantern moving - not to mention a lively one that would take a year to wait, who wouldn't look at a full beard and a full tail is a mallet!

It's just such a bustle, no matter what, it has to be noisy until the middle of the night, and the gentlemen of the Sijiu City who have laughed enough enough have gradually dispersed, but when they went home, they didn't forget to carefully nag which lantern was the most prominent at the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month this year, and which shop and trading hand were the most arrogant. Sometimes two groups of people who return from the same way are blind to the fire, but the public says that the public is reasonable, the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable, and the lawsuit that cannot be fought is endless, and it has become a scene of full martial arts.

waited for a fight to come home and light the lamp, but it turned out that the eldest brother smashed the second brother's head, and the third uncle pulled off a few locks of the fourth uncle's long beard.

It is estimated that there have been too many disputes because of this, and I can't understand when the scene of the lanterns in Sijiu City began, and the scene of the lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is that there is a lantern festival made up of people with heads and faces in the lampsmith and trading houses.

But as long as there is a lively scene of lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, all the lanterns in the city will slowly gather from the next street to the left side of the overpass, and then the lanterns will be evaluated one by one by the people in the lantern maker and trading house.

In the end, the top three lanterns are selected, and the lampsmith who ties the lamp will naturally make a name for himself in the lantern shop in Sijiu City, and the main shop of this lantern can also show his face in Sijiu City, and ask for a good fortune in the coming year.

Seeing that the day of the lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was coming, the characters in the lantern shop in the city of Sijiu were already too busy to touch the ground. Needless to say, the famous master in the industry first asked the dignitaries and dignitaries who lived in the Gaomen compound in Sijiu City to book a job half invited and half urged, and took a few personal little apprentices to see that Tian'er was busy from dawn to the second half of the night, and his eyes were red, and he only hoped that it could be completed on time, so as not to miss the scene of the master's house.

And those who have just invited the same master to eat the thank-you banquet, and can be regarded as a little master who can play a heads-up job in the lampsmith shop, at this time they are also gearing up to hold their breath, looking for a family that is willing to put down the work of the main family to tie the scene, and they will stay at home in their own craft workshop to get busy, and they are looking forward to taking advantage of the scene of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to make a splash!

If there is really that heartless master, when he wants to find a good corner in the lampsmith's shop and a master to tie a lantern for himself, I am afraid that he will have a big face and a lot of money, and he will have to have the luck of the sea?

Standing in front of their own shops on Zhushikouer Street, several shopkeepers of several buyers and sellers hugged each other's fists and saluted, but on the other hand, they looked at the little apprentices in the main gate of the fire carrying the green bamboo poles and mulberry paper used to tie the lanterns. ”

"Yo, shopkeeper Tang, when you asked, I just remembered it here - just seeing those little apprentices in the main gate of the fire moving objects to the entrance of the hall, I really didn't see any of the master who put lamps in the lampsmith's shop enter the gate of the main gate of the fire?"

"Now in the lamp shop in this Sijiu City, several masters who have come out have already taken over a lot of work, and they can't find the effort to take over the master next to them. This is to talk about the characters in the lampsmith's shop next to it....... I said a few shopkeepers, I don't mean anything in this - you said that the main gate of the fire has such an open door, and it can stir up several scenes in the city of Sijiu, if you don't take out the lanterns at the lantern fair, it will be returned, if you really take it out....... But you really can't be too shabby, right? ”

"Can't be shabby! My uncle's house is the lake silk shop, listening to my uncle's house came to my small shop to pay New Year's greetings to the brother said, this fire is the main entrance of the hall from the day of the opening of the fifth day, has been on their lake silk shop to move a full eight horses of lake silk! You think about it, how many lanterns can you save when these eight lake silks are all used? (To be continued.) )
