Chapter 346: Walking on White Ice

Jiayin year, the fourteenth day of the first month of the lunar calendar, it is a pity that the county did not organize a Yangge twisting competition this year, which made many people who want to see the excitement a little disappointed, if there is a year of competition, today those Yangge teams should be ready to go to the county seat,

Everyone in the Han family got up early today, and the sisters of the Yun family were preparing to roll the Lantern Festival today, and last time they discussed it for a long time, everyone finally decided to make Lantern Festival to eat.

Because of the Lantern Festival, the meaning of the Lantern Festival is that the whole family is reunited, happy and peaceful.

Eating Lantern Festival represents the meaning of reunion and harmony, and the days are getting more and more prosperous.

Family harmony and family reunion are very important to a family at any time.

So can the Lantern Festival if you don't eat the Lantern Festival still be called the Lantern Festival? You have everything in the house, so why don't you make yourself happy.

The sisters cooked the beans needed to make the Lantern Festival filling last night, and simmered it all night on a warm fire, and then pounded it into a puree, added sugar, honey, and black sesame seeds and kneaded it into a ball, and divided it into similar small pieces to complete the preliminary preparation.

Next, take out a large basket and put some glutinous rice flour, take an appropriate amount of adjusted filling, put it in it and start shaking constantly, so that the glutinous rice flour will be stained on the filling, take it out when it is not sticky, sweep off the glutinous rice flour and dip it in the water to repeat the above action, so that the Lantern Festival that is white and round and suitable for the size of your mind will be rolled.

Han Li finished the first batch of medicinal materials for beauty prescriptions in the health room, and according to the records on the "Yuyitang Record", after this precipitation and fermentation, the finished product would be ready to be baked in a week at most.

In fact, everyone in Shanghe Village is busy today, but most of them are making lantern bowls to be used tomorrow.

After Han Li finished finishing, he remembered what Yang Xiuying and Zhang Yaozu had specially said yesterday, so he started to work again.

Han Li came up with a small climbing plow, an ice skating car, a one-legged donkey, and a simple skate shoe made of iron bars and wooden planks.

In the year of Jiayin, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, firecrackers sounded in the village one after another after dawn.

However, unlike the first day of the Lunar New Year, the sound of firecrackers today is significantly less.

After the sound of firecrackers in Han Li's house sounded, it naturally attracted a group of children to run over to pick up the squibs, but they came and went in a hurry, and before they could say a word, they ran towards the next place.

Han Li's family gathered a lot of people today, and all those who had a similar relationship with him came.

This is a pre-appointment for everyone to go to the wild and on the river to "walk on white ice" today, which is homophonic as "walking a hundred diseases", that is, to get rid of the diseases on oneself and one's family.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, there is also the custom of rolling the ice, but this custom is specially prepared for married women, and every year on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, when it is dark, the women will go to the stone platform by the well and roll back and forth. Or they come to the field with lanterns and flashlights in their hands and lie on the ice and snow, flipping and rolling left and right or playing with each other for fun, thinking that this can "take off bad luck" is also called rolling disease. ”

While rolling, they also sang a song (nursery rhyme): "Roll around the ice, no back pain, no leg pain, roll around the ice, the body is light and light, the heart is loose, the ice is rolled, and the sleep is dawn." ”

In fact, the custom of "reeling ice" was already popular among the people during the Whip Dynasty, and it was called "removing bad luck" at that time.

Today's weather is pretty much the same, it should be cloudy, in the colloquial phrase semi-cloudy.

The group of people pulled things and walked towards the river, talking and laughing, and at this time, not only them, but also many people in the village walked out.

Children, teenagers, young people, middle-aged people, men, women, and even some elderly people with limited mobility are also walking slowly on the frozen river with the help of their families, hoping to get rid of their own "diseases".

Everyone is talking and laughing, chasing back and forth, shouting loudly, you chasing me, very happy.

Many people are like Han Li, they have brought out their small climbing plows, ice skating cars, one-legged donkeys, and homemade skate shoes.

In the past, older people would be afraid of face, but they were usually embarrassed to play with their children, because in the countryside it is different from in the city, and if they can play twice, they will be talked about by the villagers.

But in today's "walking a hundred diseases" day, it has nothing to do with age, no matter how old they are, they can play openly and openly, and the more fun they play, the better the effect.

The Yun sisters skated a lot when they were in Sijiu City, and at that time they also had their own skate shoes, you must know that a good pair of skate shoes can buy more than half a bicycle, which is a proper luxury in these years.

Although the simple skate shoes that Han Li had made were hard to put on, they quickly mastered them, and the laughter of the two of them soon came from the river.

In fact, the two sisters had already wanted to come out to skate and play, but no one around them mentioned it, so they didn't take action, and this time they had to have a good time.

Although Han Li could easily catch up with them, when he saw He Mi and Qi Zhaodi holding wooden sticks and supporting each other, they didn't dare to take a step, so he turned around and walked to them and talked about the skills and precautions.

But the two of them were still the same as before, and Han Li had no choice but to hold a person's arm in one hand and slowly lead them up on the river.

Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying's situation is also not much better, but Meng Zaihong, a girl who grew up by the Haihe River, is more familiar with this, and she has been teaching these two people.

Han Li was supporting He Mi and them to walk, and Zhang Yaozu fell directly on all fours.

I involuntarily let out an oops, and then lay on the ice and didn't move, I don't know if I fell very hard or was embarrassed.

Han Li let He Mi and the others slowly get acquainted with him, and he slid to Zhang Yaozu to pull him up.

"Brother Han, if you are a little lighter, the goose feels that its butt has been broken into three petals."

"You haven't learned to walk yet, you just want to run away from your legs."

"There's a piece of leather that isn't fastened, and my shoes are slanted."

Han Li waited for a while and saw that he was indeed okay before turning around and sliding to catch up with the Yun family sisters, and then everyone played with a small plow, an ice skate, and a one-legged donkey from the villagers to skate twice.

Eventually, when they got tired of slipping, they ran to play with the children by drawing ice spinning tops.

Han Li looked at these spinning tops and knew that they were cut by the children themselves, without good cutting tools, it was very difficult to make a spinning top, and the children who could make the spinning tops alone were very persevering.

And at this time, there were no beads at the bottom of the top, and they were usually nailed with a nail and polished, and a simple one was nailed to a pushpin, but they still had a lot of fun, wielding whips like queens.

There are too many people on the river today, and there is a lot of laughter everywhere.

Han Li was just about to sit down and rest when they were playing with the Ice Spinning Top, when Qi Zhaodi came over and called him.

"Brother Han, there are a lot of people over there who are playing da, if you go, you will definitely be able to win them all."

尜 (ga) is a homemade toy that resembles a short javelin.

However, this one is the middle of the two ends, and the diameter is generally about one to two centimeters, and the length varies from ten centimeters to twenty centimeters.

After the slicing is done, the player holds a wooden stick or wooden slats in his hand, knocks the end of the dragon hard to get it off the ground, and then hits the middle of the bird with the wooden stick to make it fly away, so that the person who can fly the farthest is the winner.

This game seems simple, but it has certain requirements for eyesight, accuracy, and strength, and ordinary people can't play it at all.

Han Li shook his head and said, "I won't go to this kind of game, but you can go over and play and see if your eyesight and hand speed have improved during this time." ”

Today's game on the ice is very exhausting, and around noon there are people clamoring to go back, but they say that they will come back after going home and drinking some water.

So the intellectuals went back to their respective homes to rest, and it is unknown when and what time they will come back.

Later, no one said that anyone said to go to the river to play, until the evening, the courtyard of Han Li's house was lit with ice lanterns, and there were no sisters at the door of the street, by the window, at the firewood shed, and at the door of the toilet.

However, the door of their house is made of sawdust and kerosene, which is not conspicuous and has a good effect of ventilating.

When Han Li and the Yun family sisters came to light the lights at the door, Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying also came out to light the lights at the door, and when they saw that the streets were all lit up, they suddenly felt very beautiful, Yun Yingying remembered the scenery she saw that night.

"Brother Li, why don't we go halfway up the mountain again, the village will be more beautiful tonight."

"Okay, but you have to wear thicker clothes."

"But we're not going to meet the people who deliver the lights, are we? If that's the case, I'm a little panicked. ”

"No, didn't you notice? The people here are buried in the ground after death, and basically no one buries them on the mountain, so if we want to go halfway up the mountain, we usually won't meet them, and besides, you don't have to be afraid of me by your side. ”

"Then I'll call Sister He and Sister Hongmin."

"We've heard it here, and the scenery must be better tonight."

Yang Xiuying's voice came from the side, and after saying hello, they hurried home to change their clothes.

Han Li: "You two should also go home and change your clothes, Zhang Yaozu, they didn't see them when they were drunk last time, this time I'll call them, and I'll inform He Mi over there, let's gather over there later, by the way, bring the dogs, and let the lynx watch the door at home." ”

Han Li went to Zhang Xiangjun's house and shouted, the two of them had heard about this night scene when they were drinking last time, so this time there was no need to say that they were both going to go.

Han Li said hello and came out of Zhang Xiangjun, and when he turned around, he came to He Mi's house.
