Chapter 211: Lantern Festival
At the beginning of the first month, the fish and dragons are mixed, and there is the view of silver flowers and fire trees......
The five colors and ten lights are particularly outstanding
Lu Yangge's illness was locked up at home by Qiu for several days.
During this period, Song Yunfei came twice, but was shut out by Chunhua and Qiushi and ignored him.
Xu is Yu Linwei has something to do, and Song Yunfei has never been here again.
It wasn't until the Lantern Festival on the 14th day of the first lunar month that Lu Yangge was allowed to go out as an exception.
The festival starts on the 14th day of the first month and ends on the 16th day of the first month, lasting for three days. In the past few days, every household has helped the old and the young to take to the street to enjoy the lanterns, make Lantern Festival, welcome Zigu, walk all kinds of diseases, pinch the zodiac, eat glutinous rice balls, put lanterns, brush dragon lanterns, set off fireworks, lion dance, and step on stilts......
The streets and alleys are all lit up to celebrate the festival.
A childless woman in the family, or a family who has married a new daughter-in-law, will take advantage of this festival to send her son to the temple to kneel down and worship incense, and bring a lively and cute clay doll home. It means that the family will be able to add grandchildren at the end of the year or next year.
During the Lantern Festival in the sixth year of the Great Shang Dynasty, the palace and the dignitaries in Beijing placed special lanterns in Beijing.
There are various lanterns connected into the lamp mountain, the crouching tiger in the mountain, the dragon, the birds and beasts, the painting is vivid and delicate and picturesque. The crowd passing by is in twos and threes, and the lanterns in their hands are flowers, birds, fish, insects, birds and animals, all kinds, which make people dizzy.
The palace's lanterns are the most eye-catching, with hundreds of lanterns connecting together to form a giant dragon hovering in the air. From a distance, the dragon shines brightly, reflecting a prosperous peace.
Most of the lamps are mainly rice paper, single light paper, and fine cotton paper.
The powerful family is rich and noble, with the filament lamp as the most, and there are also various characters made of silk silk, competing for strange and dazzling, and those who enter the market are like entering the Guanghan Palace.
The Lu family and his entourage watched and walked from the side of Sanshan Street until they could see the inner bridge being stopped from a distance, and then stopped.
Merchants on both sides of Zhonghua Road gathered, crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, and it was difficult for cars and horses to travel.
"Little four, you hold the little five."
"Xiaoyu, you take Qingluan."
"Chunhua, you follow Si Shao."
"Qiu Shi, you follow the third girl and the fourth girl."
Along the way, Qiu chattered, worried about this and that, and even his voice was a little hoarse.
"Mother, you're tired."
Lu Yangge took Xiao Wu by the hand and thoughtfully stepped forward to help Qiu, "Let's go to Jixianglou to sit down, I asked Shopkeeper Li to leave a room on purpose." ”
Hearing that he was going to Jixianglou, Lu Xiaowu was the first to raise his hand: "Fourth brother, I'm tired, my back hurts and my legs are sore." ”
"Nonsense, it's only been a few steps." Qiu Shi angrily and funny gently patted Lu Xiaowu's head, "I still have back pain, and the child has no waist." ”
"How can you have no waist?"
Lu Xiaowu raised his hand and compared the back of his little belly, which was slightly rounder than himself, "What is this not a waist?" ”
"It's a bucket." After Lu Xiaoyu finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing, "Look at you, it's still waist, it's the same thickness up and down, where can you still see your waist." ”
"Second sister." Lu Xiaowu stomped his feet angrily.
Xiao Wu has suffered since he was a child, and when he is older, he is more persistent in eating, and the whole person who eats is mellow and cute.
In an era when most people can't get enough to eat, Lu Xiaowu is a symbol of the Lu family's wealth.
Fortunately, he is still young, and he will have to smoke strips in the future, Lu Quan and Qiu's family and several children in the family are all slender and tall, and Lu Xiaowu will not be fat in the future.
"Okay, your third sister teases you." Qiu smiled and pulled Lu Xiaowu into his arms, "Mother is pulling you, don't listen to your third sister's nonsense." ”
Because of the hardships, they dare not look back on the days when they didn't eat or drink, and Qiu's generation still likes fat and mellow children. In their eyes, being fat means being healthy.
Xiao Wu is the only male in the Lu family, and the Qiu family is naturally a little more biased.
touched Lu Xiaowu's little face lovingly, and couldn't say that Lu Xiaowu was not fat against his will, so he could only look at Lu Qingluan, who was led by Lu Xiaoyu.
"I don't know how Qingluan's child grows, how well he grows. It's not fat, it's not thin, it's good-looking. ”
Qingluan also loves to eat, and because she has been following Lu Yangge, she has gotten a lot of good things, but no matter how much she eats, she can't see any meat, and even Qiu's can't help but envy him for her son, the little fourth sister.
Lu Qingluan blushed with shame, and said like a yellow bird: "Mother, the fourth brother said that you have to eat more and move more so that you won't grow meat." ”
Don't look at how much she eats, but she has followed her fourth brother to Qingshan Academy since she was a child, and sometimes she has to go to the store to check the accounts.
When she arrived in the capital, with Chunhua and Qiushi, she didn't follow the fourth brother anymore, but she had to follow the fourth brother around the yard for more than half an hour every morning and evening.
"That's right, let Xiao Wu follow you in the future." Qiu Shi also pushed Xiao Wu, "Did you hear that, get up early in the future and run with your fourth brother and fourth sister, so that you won't be fat." ”
Lu Xiaowu looked at Qiu sadly, his heart was full of grievances.
He's not a fucking big boy anymore.
Just now, he said that his third sister was talking nonsense, and now he dislikes him for being fat.
What his mother said, his father didn't dare to refute, and Lu Xiaowu didn't dare to do so, so he could only endure it angrily, and made up his mind that he must eat a few more snacks when he arrived at Jixianglou to soothe his injured little self-esteem.
The family agreed to go to Jixianglou and no longer go down.
This street is lively, but there are many people and many lights, and they take their children, so it is better to go to Jixianglou to sit down and watch the lights.
Here, Lu Yangge led the whole family out of the inner bridge and went to Jixianglou.
Before I arrived at Jixianglou, I heard a "boom", and the fire in the direction of the inner bridge in the distance lit up half of the sky.
The whole market was alarmed, and they all looked up at the place where the fire was burning.
Lu Yangge looked at the firelight in the distance, and the whole person squeezed uncontrollably in the direction of the inner bridge.
"Daddy...... Daddy......"
"Little four." Lu Quan went up and grabbed Lu Yangge's sleeve, "Little four, dad is here." ”
But where is Lu Quan in Lu Yangge's eyes, she just had a big dream a few days ago, and the memories of her previous life have returned to her mind.
The fire at home almost became her nightmare.
It was this fire that destroyed her family.
If it hadn't been for saving her, her father wouldn't have died.
Lu Yangge will never forget that she was carried by her uncle and ran to the backyard, and her father and the family's guardian blocked the human wall and was shot by countless arrows.
She's going to save her dad, she's going to save her dad.
She didn't want her father to die with an arrow through her heart, and she didn't want those thieves to burn down her home.
"Little four."
Qiu Shi also panicked, and stepped forward to hug Xiao Si, "Xiao Si, don't be afraid, I'm a mother, I'm a mother." ”
Because this side is only separated from the inner bridge by a market, and a river.
The raging fire on the other side of the inner bridge quickly spread, and countless people fled in surprise.
The entire capital was suddenly in chaos.
Chunhua saw that the Qiu family couldn't hold Lu Yangge, so she was bold, stepped forward and stunned Lu Yangge with a palm knife, carried Lu Yangge with her backhand, and yelled: "Quick, enter the building." ”
Qiu Shi also picked up Lu Xiaowu very quickly, dragged Lu Quan, who was at a loss, and rushed into Jixiang Building.
Shopkeeper Li, who had already greeted the door, was quick to move, and dragged Lu Xiaoyu, who was standing on the side in fright, into the building, and Lu Xiaoyu did not forget to drag his mother Qiu in a panic.
Shopkeeper Li took advantage of everyone to enter the building and quickly closed the door, and no one dared to put it inside.
