Chapter 200: Midyear Festival
Behind them were overlapping roofs, with the occasional voice of a noisy person.
The surroundings of the house are closely connected to other people's houses, and although they are not as empty as before, they are crowded next to each other and make people feel a sense of belonging.
Ye Xiaoying closed her eyes and counted the stars, and her heart was never more relaxed since she came, as if she was far away from the barren place before that, and it would be very different in the future.
But then they found that there was no difference, that is, the usual three meals a day, but because it became convenient to buy groceries, because of the proximity to the restaurant, they no longer had to work as hard as before, and their lives were much easier.
Li Tiezhu doesn't often stay at home when he has nothing to do, as if he finds the New World hanging out from time to time.
After coming back from this day, he said to Ye Xiaoying in surprise: "Lady, it's interesting to listen to those people in the teahouse today, they are all big heroes, and some are generals who lead troops to fight, it's really majestic!" ”
Li Tiezhu's eyes radiated brilliance, at this moment, he had already washed away the original rural atmosphere, and he was no longer restrained when he looked around.
Ye Xiaoying was pleased with his current change, and said with a smile: "That's all in the mouth of the storyteller, we little people just need to live in peace!" ”
"Why didn't the lady say?" Li Tiezhu now works harder, saving a lot of time than before, and he likes to go out and feel everything around him.
Soon after, it was the Midyear Festival, and the two discussed buying a lantern and placing it on the river to express their mourning, but the lantern was in short supply, and the people in the town talked about it.
Ye Xiaoying was curious. Stood by and listened to an ear.
"Do you know, this year, the Chen family has made a lot of money, and it is said that they must come out on top in this Lantern Festival. Tell me, isn't this nonsense? ”
These are all for the lonely souls and wild ghosts in the water, but now they have become a place for those rich people to fight for wealth, hey! “
"What do you sigh for? It doesn't cost you money, we can still watch a lively, and besides, they are full of tricks, and some of our sellers can't follow it! “
Even this one has to fight for wealth, I'm afraid that what they put is not a lantern, but a silver with white flowers, but since there is excitement to see, they also come over.
That night, Ye Xiaoying took Li Tiezhu's hand, and they came to the river early, wanting to see how the people in the town celebrated the Midyear Festival.
The rituals of the water and land dojo are indispensable, and there are monks sitting on the ground early in the open space chanting sutras and reciting Buddha.
As soon as the mage was finished, it was the highlight of the evening, and soon there was the loud shouting of the slaves, expelling the people who were watching, "Hurry up, hurry up!" What to watch? Get out of the way! “
After he had made a clear path, countless people behind him walked forward with lanterns in their hands and solemn expressions. All of them hung their heads and held lanterns in their hands that carried mourning.
After they passed by one after another, they first set the lanterns on the shore. The river that flows around the town is quiet, but when you get closer, you can still hear the sound of the murmuring water.
At this time, at the sound of an order, countless lanterns were instantly thrown into the water, and they rose and fell with the water waves.
Li Tiezhu was stunned, pulled Ye Xiaoying's finger and pointed at the water and said, "Lady, they put it like this, squeezing our lights aside!" “
The krathong is strangely shaped and extremely eye-catching, and many people applaud.
"Master Chen, you are really wealthy, I'm afraid that kid is better than you!"
"That's right, that's a sick young man, half of his body is about to sink into the ground, he actually dares to compare wealth with Master Chen, you see, those monks of their monks are all raw, and the thief's eyebrows are not pleasing to the eye!"
Ye Xiaoying looked at it, and sure enough, she saw the person they were talking about in the corner. There are only a few people, which looks a lot shabby and not atmospheric enough.
At this time, someone suddenly exclaimed.
It turned out that there were countless handsome men and women on that side. They also held lanterns in their hands, but they were all uniformly dressed one by one, and their footsteps were neat and silent.
This lonely power made everyone's hearts lift, and they didn't say a word, and their eyes followed them.
But instead of stopping the lanterns, they headed for the river.
There is a water bridge not far away, and the terrain is quite high.
"What are they doing here? I'm afraid I'm reluctant to let go of the lanterns, and I'm waiting to use them again next year! Haha, he also said that he was going to win this ceremony, it seems that he is talking big, this time Master Chen must have won! “
Ye Xiaoying looked at the place where they fingered, the so-called Master Chen was also smug at this time, he stroked his beard and smiled at the other party's figure gradually disappeared.
The subordinates around him shouted at everyone, "Today's lanterns, everyone enjoy them, our lord is not like some people, he will only join in the fun."
It seemed to have fallen one-sided, and there was nothing to see behind, and although there were many lanterns, they were only swam forward for a distance after being lowered into the river, and were soon washed away.
Rushed into the distance and turned into a spark.
Seeing this grand scene, Ye Xiaoying found that Li Tiezhu's eyes were shining, obviously to him he had never seen before, he had always looked excited, and he was originally entangled in the fact that his lamp was extinguished, but now he began to sigh.
But Ye Xiaoying was not interested, and when she was about to return home, she suddenly heard someone exclaiming in the distance, and Li Tiezhu also clenched her hand excitedly, "Lady, look!" ”
Following the direction he pointed, in the place where the handsome men and women left, there were countless lanterns flowing downstream, and there were big fish sliding down from the heights, and the most peculiar thing was that there were people in the lamps.
They are like fairies floating on them, treading water.
Everyone on the shore couldn't stop applauding, and Ye Xiaoying was also stunned, this is a grand scene that has never been seen before. Could it be that there really be a fairy?
But soon she noticed something unusual, it turned out that there was a thin wooden board under the lamp, I am afraid that the lamp is quite good in water, plus long-term practice, so it can swim freely on the water.
The fire on the water surface was full of skylight, which made them look like heavenly beings. The crowd applauded endlessly. Li Tiezhu looked yearning, "Lady, how did you say they came up with it?" ”
Burning money, who wouldn't, it's just that there is too much money to spend or it's to fight for a breath This will be done, she was curious about the so-called young man in the back.
After inquiring all the way, I learned that he was under the pavilion by the river not far away, but it was surrounded by strong men, and it was difficult to get close.
