Chapter 144: Moonlight
However, after standing for more than ten minutes, Jin Shu lost interest in the things around him. The two of them turned and went into the cabin.
In the cabin, Han Yi and Li Yunzhi were talking about something. Seeing Jinshu come in, their voices stopped talking.
"It's rare to see you so excited, why don't you stay outside for a while?" Han Yi looked up at her and asked with a smile.
"No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you will get tired of watching it for a long time. What's more, it's still windy outside, so I just came in to keep warm. Jin Shu found an empty seat and sat down. A little maid immediately served a cup of hot tea, and at the same time did not forget to serve a cup to Zhao Hui beside her.
After sitting and chatting for a while, the painting boat finally left the Luoshui River and entered the Mirror Lake in Los Angeles. The area of Mirror Lake is not particularly large, because its water quality is clear and the level is like a mirror on weekdays, so it is called Mirror Lake. Every year during the Golden Moon Festival, there is a big event to be carried out at Mirror Lake, so at this time, almost all the painting boats stop on the lake.
"It's no fun to stay on the boat all the time, let's go down for a walk!" Han Yi stood up and invited everyone to follow him off the boat.
After coming down, Jin Shu saw that the shore of Mirror Lake was also full of people. However, unlike other places, these people are holding something similar to a Kong Ming lantern in their hands.
"Han Yi, what are they taking?" If you don't understand, you have to ask about the excellent quality of the brocade book.
Seeing this, Han Yi hurriedly explained: "It is a moon lantern, and when the auspicious time arrives, tens of thousands of people will light the moon lantern on the shore of this lake, and the scene is very spectacular, and it can be regarded as the grandest event on the day of the Golden Moon Festival." ”
After listening to Jinshu, he suddenly realized. Han Yi continued: "After a while, the prefect will light the first moon lantern in the center of the lake, so as to pray that the people of Los Angeles can live and work in peace and contentment in the coming year. Then others will light their own moon lanterns, or pray for family harmony, or pray for the health of their elders, or pray for marriage, anyway, they all want to pray for blessings. We'll sell two of them in a while, so we'll have a good time. ”
Han Yi didn't believe much in praying for blessings. Probably affected by the growth environment, he is a more realistic person, and feels that if he wants to achieve his heart's desire, he can only work hard, and it is not wise to wait for God to open his eyes. Jin Shu's thoughts coincided with his. As a modern person, she has never been interested in the things that these little girls like. But since they are all here, they have to do something to make it worthwhile, so when Han Yi said it, Jinshu did not refuse.
Continuing along the lakeside, there are many roadside vendors selling moon lanterns. Han Yi casually chose a stall and stopped, and chose a moon lantern with Mo Lan painted on it.
"Choose what style you want!" He directly took out a piece of broken silver, to say the least, two or three taels, and gave it to the vendor who sold the lamp. Then he turned his head to Jinshu and said, "It's okay to choose two more, I should make amends for you." ”
Jin Shuxin said: Even if you make amends, I won't forgive easily, don't think that a little favor can buy me. However, he reached out very honestly and began to choose his favorite moon lantern.
However, Han Yi didn't know which tail Zhao Hui stepped on when he said this. At the moment when Han Yi's words fell, Zhao Hui immediately said with a straight face: "No! As he spoke, he took out a piece of silver from his bosom and handed it to the vendor.
The peddler was so happy that he couldn't find the north, and took the silver while saying words of thanks.
Jin Shu turned his head to look at Zhao Hui with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong?" ”
Zhao Hui shook his head and didn't speak, but continued to follow Jinshu to choose the moon lantern.
Although he didn't know what was going on, he didn't seem to be very happy, and Jin Shu didn't continue to ask. Anyway, money is earned and spent, as long as Zhao Hui doesn't get angry, after all, coaxing people is really not a simple matter.
