Chapter 3 Lantern Night

And when they had eaten, they dispersed.

Su Min and Wang Zicheng wandered the streets hand in hand.

"Minmin, you don't have to take what Junfeng said seriously, maybe he will forget it in a few days." Wang Zicheng's hand tightened, comforting her.

At the dinner table, Su Min was a little absent-minded, and Wang Zicheng naturally looked at it. But seeing Xie Junfeng and Ah Quan talking and laughing, he had no way to interject, so he came to comfort her at this time.

Su Min stopped, looked up at him and smiled, "I'm fine, it's just that the master suddenly has two more disciples, and I also have two more senior brothers, and I ...... in my heart."

Since she was a child, her parents were too busy, so they entrusted her to Ah Quan, so Su Min has the same feelings for Ah Quan as her father.

Now that there are two more senior brothers, she should be happy, so that she can be regarded as two more brothers. It's just that she hasn't gotten acquainted with each other yet, so she feels that the master is no longer her master alone, and she doesn't know her weight in Ah Quan's heart, so she will inevitably feel a little lost in her heart.

Wang Zicheng laughed, and scratched the tip of her nose, "You stupid girl, I was still worried about the bet with Junfeng, but I didn't expect to think about this." ”

"Minmin, you are in the bureau and don't know the situation, I am an outsider, I think Teacher Su is like a father and daughter to you. But you should know better than anyone else what your master is doing to you, and you shouldn't doubt him. ”

Wang Zicheng's words made Su Min feel like a slap in the face, and she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in her heart, how can I doubt Master, for more than ten years, if it was just preaching and teaching, Master would have left a long time ago.

"Well, I know, it's better to listen to your words than to read for ten years!" Su Min broke free of his hand, bowed, and looked at Wang Zicheng with a grin.

After speaking, she took Wang Zicheng's arm and continued to walk, at this time she was happy in her heart, so her steps were brisk.

Wang Zicheng looked at her with a smile and a doting expression.

Soon it was the day of the Lantern Festival, the full moon in the sky was shining, and the lanterns on the ground were longing.

Before the Lantern Festival exam, Huaxia Academy of Arts arranged a Lantern Festival to let students feel the lively atmosphere of the Lantern Festival.

The Lantern Festival, also known as the Shangyuan Festival, the Little New Year's Month, the New Year's Day or the Lantern Festival, is one of the traditional Chinese festivals on the 15th day of the first lunar month every year.

The ancients called the night "night", and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the first full moon night of the year, so it is called the "Lantern Festival".

However, it was only after the Han and Wei dynasties that the Lantern Festival really became a folk interpretation, and the custom of lighting lanterns on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is related to the eastward spread of Buddhism.

During the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism flourished, and it was also from this time that the lantern festival became a legal thing and gradually became a folk custom.

The activities of the Lantern Festival mainly include a series of folk activities such as viewing lanterns, eating Lantern Festival, guessing lantern riddles, and setting off fireworks.

Abroad, the Lantern Festival is also known as "The NTERN Festival", and the customs are the same as those in China.

Because it is connected with the Spring Festival, it is a city during the day, and it is very lively, and the lights are lit at night, which is spectacular.

In particular, the delicate and colorful lights make it an entertainment activity during the Spring Festival, so there will be many wonderful poems circulating in the world.

In ancient times, in order to expel the fear of darkness, lanterns were derived to have the meaning of exorcism and prayer for light.

Legend has it that in order to encourage people to study, Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, called the first program of admission "Turn on the lights".

The children brought the lanterns to the school and asked a knowledgeable old gentleman to light them to symbolize the bright future.

Because many schools open after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the lanterns at the beginning of the school year have also become the embellishment of the Lantern Festival.

The Huaxia Academy of Arts retains this tradition, so on this day, all the students carried lanterns and waited at the school gate for the teachers to light the lanterns.

"Thank you, teacher!" The teacher who lit the lamp for Su Min and Wang Zicheng, they didn't know each other.

I saw that the teacher was gray-haired, dressed in a dark blue jacket, and had a remarkable temperament. She was smiling, and although she was slow, her classmates waited patiently for her to light the lantern in her hand.

Because there were so many people, they left quickly when the lamps were lit, and did not dare to linger for a moment.

Su Min held a small lantern in the shape of a lotus flower in her hand and walked side by side with Wang Zicheng.

She was wearing a light green gown, which looked very beautiful, and under the night and the lights, she looked like a flower that had just bloomed.

Wang Zicheng wore a bamboo-blue dark-grained round-necked robe, with a black leather belt around his waist, and a lantern painted with mountains and rivers in his hand.

The young man is tall and outstanding, and from time to time there are girls who reluctantly turn back. But when he saw a smiling beauty beside the young man, a look of regret appeared on his face.

I want to come to the school's lantern festival, but I don't know my classmates from my own school, and the people around me who come to play.

There are a lot of lanterns lit at the entrance of the campus and in the corridor, these lanterns are all in traditional style, painted with traditional patterns, or beauty, or landscape, or flowers and birds, all of which are hung on the wire with hooks.

At first glance, it makes people feel that this place does not look like the illusion of the world.

There are also some lanterns of various forms on both sides of the road, with different colors, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

Many people are dressed in Hanfu, and under the backdrop of the lights, people have a sense of fluttering immortals, and some people can't help but be poetic.

"There are lights without a moon and there is no entertainment, and a month without lights is not spring;

When spring arrives, people in the world are like jade, and the lamp burns the moon and the moon is like silver.

The street is full of pearls and cui village girls, and the god of the Sheng Song Race Society in the boiling land;

If you don't show Fangzun to laugh, how can you get this good day. (Ming Tang Yin's "Lantern Festival")

Su Min chanted softly, feeling the excitement of the lantern festival and feeling the comfort in her heart.

Wang Zicheng stretched out his hand to catch her empty hand, smiled and said softly, "Lantern Festival lanterns, lanterns shine on beauties; The beauty prints the shadow of the lamp, and the shadow of the lamp tells the life. ”

It was the Lantern Festival, but he was unwilling.

Su Min glanced up at the young man who was chanting poetry, and a smile hung on his face, "What a beauty, the lamp shadow tells the life!" Life is like duckweed, the feeling of drifting with the tide makes people unwilling but helpless! ”

Today's people don't know much about the rhythm of poetry, and naturally they can't compare with any poet in ancient times.

The young man smiled and hugged Su Min in his arms, this girl guessed his mind at once, and he couldn't help but thank God in his heart for letting him meet her.

In a trance, he remembered that the Northern Song Dynasty poet Ouyang Xiu wrote in "Shengchazi Yuan Xi".

On New Year's Eve last year, the flower market was lit up like day;

The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk.

On New Year's Eve this year, the moon and lights are still the same;

I didn't see last year's people, and my tears wet the sleeves of my spring shirt.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in his heart.

The poem is about last year's lively lantern festival, in which a couple of lovers still talk to each other after dusk. And now, the moon is still the bright moon, the lamp is still the bright light, and the sweetness of last year no longer exists, leaving the affectionate person full of bitter helplessness and pain, and can't help but tear his clothes.

Wang Zicheng didn't know why, he suddenly had this thought. Perhaps it was too complete at this time, so he was afraid of the feeling that the moon would be full and the water would overflow.

He couldn't help but glance at the beauty in his arms, and the eyes were even deeper, as if he would be gone in the blink of an eye.

So the hand holding Su Min couldn't help but tighten.
