Chapter 388: The competition is so big
The family chatted for a while, and Song Yuan thought that Song Xifeng and Song Dongfeng and his wife would be in a hurry tomorrow, so they stopped the topic and asked them to go back early to rest.
Song Nanfeng took her sister to the guest house, and she didn't go back to the mansion given to her by the emperor tonight, so she stayed here.
Taking advantage of Song Yuan's absence, Song Dongfeng said worriedly: "I suspect that the second child is depressed, and he is so sad all day long." ”
"Depression? So serious? Song Nanfeng was surprised, he really couldn't understand that the beautiful life of the Song family was something that no one could envy, so why was he depressed?
Song Xifeng said: "Depression can't be talked about, I think the second brother is introverted and socially afraid." Xiao Wu, you and your sister should accompany him more, and tell your sister to pay more attention to the marriageable girls in Beijing and find a girlfriend for the second brother. ”
"Okay."
……
In a few days, it will be the Chinese New Year.
As soon as Song Yuan and his younger siblings had eaten the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Song Nanfeng couldn't wait to say to his sister: "Beibei, let's hurry up and wait in front of the former Fuyin Temple!" ”
Song Yuan was surprised: "You took your sister to stay up all night?" Aren't you two sleeping tonight? ”
"Don't sleep! I saw at noon today that there were already people queuing up to grab the first incense, and if we don't get a good spot tonight, we won't be able to grab it tomorrow morning. ”
Song Yuan is usually too homely, and he only knows that there is a custom of grabbing incense on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but he never knew that this event is so popular.
But if you think about it, you can understand it.
Fuyin Temple is the oldest temple in Beijing, built in the middle of the city, resplendent with gold, usually full of incense, let alone this time.
He was just a little worried about his sister: "Beibei, can you stay up without sleeping all night tonight?" ”
Song Beibei had already put on all the thick clothes he could wear, and he also put on a thick cloak, wrapped like this, and when he looked at it from a distance, he thought it was a round little snowman......
"Don't worry, second brother, it's no problem for me not to sleep all night!" Song Beibei was already full of impatience, "Fifth brother, let's go quickly." ”
"Good!"
The two said goodbye to Song Yuan and hurried to the gate of Fuyin Temple to line up.
The two streets in front of Fuyin Temple began to be crowded, and many people still brought bedding, and Song Beibei and Song Nanfeng came at this time, and they were not in a good position at all.
This grand Song Beibei is incomprehensible.
"This is too exaggerated, so many people believe in it?"
In fact, her original intention is to join in the fun, participate, feel it, and it doesn't matter if she gets the fragrance or not.
After looking forward to it for a long time, I thought that I was coming, so I tried my best to grab it, so I rushed over so early to join in the fun.
Song Nanfeng didn't expect it: "Yes, I didn't expect the people in the capital to be so idle......"
As soon as he finished speaking, an old man next to him said: "Young man, it's not that we are idle, it's really a rich reward this year!" ”
Song Beibei was surprised: "Huh? And the rewards? ”
The old man nodded: "Yes, in previous years, there were not so many people who came to line up the incense, but last year, when the treasury was in surplus, the imperial court wanted to have fun with the people, so it posted a notice early, and those who grabbed the first incense will be directly rewarded with 1,000 taels of silver!" ”
Song Beibei now understands why so many people came to rob it, but the old man in front of him, who was panting for breath after saying a few words, also came to join in the fun, is it too much......
Song Beibei hesitated: "You also want to grab the first incense?" ”
The old man smiled and said, "Where can I rob you young men?" It's just that tomorrow's temple will also distribute grain and rice, and if you can't grab the first incense, there is still grain and rice to receive. ”
Song Beibei understood: "I see, no wonder there are so many people." ”
Song Nanfeng squeezed his fists and said with a smile: "I didn't want to nod my head so much, and I also thought that everything would follow fate, but now that so many people are coming, it has aroused my desire to win, I must grab it tomorrow!" ”
Song Beibei raised his head and glanced at the tall temple in front of him, calculated the distance, and asked, "Fifth brother, are you very light?" ”
In the current situation, I can only rely on light skills to fly over, and if I want to squeeze people to run over, I can't catch up with Touxiang at all.
At the mention of light work, Song Nanfeng was angry.
He came with a memory, although he didn't read well before the crossing, but he knew the most basic scientific knowledge, and understood the basic knowledge of mechanics and gravity.
So after he came here, every time he wanted to learn internal skills and light skills with the masters, he would refute himself and think that this thing was unscientific.
If you don't believe in one thing, you won't be able to learn well.
If he were a pure ancient, without so much science binding him, maybe he would have learned.
He is not bad now, but he relies on strength, reflexes and skills, and he has not learned that kind of mysterious internal strength and light skills at all.
Song Nanfeng sighed lightly: "I don't know at all, I knew that I brought the release here, and his light skills are very good." ”
It is estimated that even if it is released, it will not be so easy to grab the first incense, after all, it is likely that there are other people who will also work lightly.
Song Beibei thought about it, and whispered in Song Nanfeng's ear: "Fifth brother, let's go and change a bag of copper plates." ”
Song Nanfeng was puzzled: "Why?" ”
"When I open the door tomorrow morning, I'll sprinkle copper plates in the crowd. Many people here came here to receive rice and grain, and it should not be the wealthy people of Tebi, who will rob them when they see copper plates. When you grab it, it will definitely interfere with other people who want to grab the first incense, and you take this opportunity to run forward. ”
Song Nanfeng clapped his hands: "You still have a way to go north and north, let's go, let's go and exchange copper coins together." ”
"Okay."
The brother and sister squeezed out of the crowd again and went to find a place to change the copper plate.
From the Chinese New Year to the Shangyuan Festival, every store in the capital is open at night to do business.
The brother and sister took the money and went to some shops to buy something, and told them to find copper plates.
After changing for half an hour, I finally got two large bags of copper plates.
After being so busy, Song Beibei was a little hungry, so the brother and sister sat next to a wonton stall and ordered two bowls of wontons, planning to continue to go back to line up after eating.
While waiting for the wontons, Song Beibei suddenly saw an ordinary sedan chair passing by on a secluded street not far away.
But she still saw that the people sitting in the sedan chair were definitely not ordinary people, because there were two rows of guards standing next to the sedan chair, and although they were all wearing ordinary men's clothes, they all looked like top masters.
Song Nanfeng also noticed it, he and his sister thought of going together, and said to himself: "At a glance, you can know which guards are masters." ”
As soon as the words fell, the boss came over with wontons, and said with a smile: "The guest officer has good eyesight, those people must be masters, and they are the dignitaries who protect the sedan chair with them." ”
Song Beibei picked up the spoon and asked, "How do you know that there are dignitaries in the sedan chair?" ”
The boss glanced at the street, lowered his voice and asked, "Two guest officers, do you know where the street next door leads?" ”
