Yesterday we made an appointment to chat with people, and today we came to Ye Zi's house together to play with their brothers and sisters.

Their group of children, since they ate the noodles in the morning, began to prepare, and when they played in the evening, they still had to find a knife at home and go to the banana forest to cut down the banana trees.

Of course, they are all looking at their plantain trees, but they don't dare to cut them down indiscriminately, as long as there is land in the countryside.

Every family will plant a few plantain trees, and if there are plantains, they will cut them back for their children to eat, or go to the town to sell them when they talk more, which can be regarded as an income.

People who don't know the situation will ask, what is the child cutting down the trunk of the plantain tree?

You don't know, do you?

The children shouted that the banana trees are useful, they are the tools used to make the evening, the show!

In fact, on August 15, apart from the custom of eating pulled noodles in the morning, children have nothing to do.

The highlight is the side night, when the children have eaten their full dinner, they will take a noon cut down the trunk of a banana tree, carve it into the shape of a dragon, and light a few sticks of incense.

A group of friends began to sing, and the fire dragon danced to the door of a house, singing a blessing song, and after singing, they would ask the family if there was a little incense, and then continue to the next house.

There are also places where I like to play with Kong Ming lanterns, but those are all bought with money, even if you can make Kong Ming lanterns, but the places where the fire is lit in Kong Ming lanterns are made with money, and they are not suitable for rural children to play.

They only play games that don't cost money. Finally, there is the traditional moonlight worship.

In the evening, before it was dark, groups of children, holding a plantain tree heart, carved into the shape of a dragon's head, this was their masterpiece of the afternoon.

The four cousins of Uncle Ye Xingheng's family, their brothers are of the same heart, they have a tacit understanding, and they sing songs.

A few sticks of incense were inserted on the faucet, and a group of children walked to a house, and they began to sing congratulatory songs.

August 15, Fire Dragon Dance,

Raising pigs and big cattle, raising cattle is bigger than Xiguan elephant,

Plough the field well, plant 20 baskets in a bucket, and give incense.

Adults will appear in that family, give a few sticks of incense to those children, and those children will go to the next family.

The two sons and one daughter of the second uncle Ye Xinglin's family also formed a group with other children, and they also sang songs.

But each group of children is a different grade, and it won't be good for this family, I've danced, you don't have to dance, someone comes to dance the fire dragon, the host will give incense, just ask for a fun.

Just like during the Chinese New Year, the lion dance is the same, for those blessing words, adults are very fond of those blessing words, and they will also be very supportive to give red envelopes and ask for fun.

Ye Zi followed the eldest brother and the second brother, and also followed a group of children, walking around the alley, they participated in it, and made this dragon head at noon, but there was a cousin who asked his father to help cut down the banana tree, found a knife, carved the dragon head, and spent an afternoon of hard work to carve it successfully, and also used a bamboo pole to insert the dragon's neck vertebrae and lift the dragon head.

"Cousin, I'll play with you as a group." Cousin Ye Caicai took Ye Zi's hand.

"Uh-huh, let's play together, we haven't played together in a long time, cousin, where have you been? Why haven't I seen you come to play with me in a while? ”

"I've been going to my grandmother's house for a while, and I only came back yesterday, and I'm going to play with you today."

"Well, that's good, play with me more in the future."

"Uh-huh"

"And me? We didn't make an appointment to play together. Cousin Ye Wenwen ran over, afraid of leaving her.

"Okay, let's all play together!" Ye Zi held the hands of the two cousins.

"Then let's follow this group of big brothers!"

"Uh-huh, play with them, let's sing together!"

"Okay, we'll just sing along with them!"

After the three girls discussed, they held hands together and ran away with a group of boys.

Ye Zi watched the excitement, held hands with two cousins, followed behind a group of cousins and brothers, and sang with them when he arrived at a house, thinking it was very fun!

Ye Zi hadn't played for many years, and he thought it was fun, so he followed their tails to have fun, so that a group of them walked from house to house, and the incense of the faucet became more and more.

Slowly it darkened, and there were still black clouds floating on it, and there was no moonlight, so I wonder if it would rain?

They walked through many houses until it was dark, and the incense on the dragon's head was very bright and bright, and in the dark night, they could see a little starlight.

The children played to the banana tree on the dragon's head, there is no place to insert incense, and the fire dragon dance has passed for more than a time, two hours, the children feel happy, looking at the black clouds just now, slowly the moon came out!

It won't rain, and the kids are even happier and feel like their next show can start.

The kids started to wrap up, threw the plantain head away, and started another show.

Another program, also singing, is where the children are looking at the moon and singing, singing songs of appreciation.

Moonlight, brilliance.

Go up the mountain to pick hemp, and the hemp blooms.

It is better to sell flowers than to bloom,

There is no money in selling flowers, so it is better to plow the fields.

Ploughing the field without grain, it is better to plant bamboo,

Planting bamboo does not grow, building a rice pot like an oil bottle.

It's the first time Ye Zi has sung such a song, she can't sing it yet, listening to this song is very old, but it's the first time she has heard it, maybe it's time to hear it, and she will forget it when she grows up.

I heard a lot of stories when I was a child, and I guessed riddles, but when I grew up, I forgot about it, and when I grew up, I didn't just care about playing like a child.

But in this era, they have no other entertainment, only telling stories and guessing riddles, singing ballads, and since there is Antelope, children are no longer listening to the old man's stories.

They will watch TV and play games, play computers, and play mobile games by themselves, where will they listen patiently to your stories?

After a group of children played for a while, they disbanded, and now they only care about playing, and they haven't eaten yet, so they go home to eat.

I also began to remember the moon cakes at home, and went home to enjoy the moon with my family.

There is moonlight tonight, so there is no need to shine a flashlight, Ye Zi's three brothers and sisters held hands and walked through the mud and stone alleys in the moonlight, they were still very excited, and they had not recovered from the excitement just now, and their mouths were still humming songs in a low voice.

When the siblings returned home, their parents saw them coming back and poured them tea and told them to wash their hands and faces.

They also touched the incense, did not wash their hands, the money did not know whether it was poisonous, and they ate directly, it was too dirty, and the disease came from the mouth.

After the children came back from washing their hands, Yao Yunkai put out fruits, moon cakes, and a plate of taro cakes.

The children didn't eat dinner, so they went to remember and play, and the parents were worried that they were hungry, so they made more food.

They also fried a snail just now, this snail is still caught by the eldest grandson of the lady next door, put some perilla, chili, and some other seasonings, while admiring the moon, while eating the snail, there is a different flavor.

They didn't eat for dinner, they ate it as a supper, they didn't feel hungry just now, and now they look at so many things, it's a blessing!

"Mom, there are two tubes of mooncakes on the table, not our own mooncakes, right? The other two mooncakes are our family! Who sent it? ”
