Compared to the bustle of the street outside the door, the courtyard of the Wang family can be described as deserted, with sparse guests sitting on hundreds of tables, each with more than half of the seats empty. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info天籁novel.23txt.

Unlike the wine banquet organized by modern people who go to school, get married, and have children, it seems that the scenery is infinite, but in fact, in line with the principle that a sheep is a group of sheep is also released, as long as the table is not satisfied, it will inevitably be pieced together, and the guests who don't know each other at all, are not in the same circle, and even have hatred and resentment between each other are stuffed on a table, in the final analysis, it is only one to save money.

The ancients invited guests to arrange seats, the number of seats is very particular, what kind of characters sit on what kind of seats, what kind of characters can be at the same table with what kind of characters, in the same room and in the same courtyard, there are certain rules, the slightest confusion can not be made, and it is not allowed to be built at will.

Until the evening, the courtyard of the Wang family's mansion was not full, and only the local businessmen and wealthy gentry were seated, and none of the famous figures of Zhongzhou martial arts came.

Wang Yuanba only felt that there was nowhere to store an old face, and he couldn't find a crack in the ground to get into, of course he knew why these martial arts figures didn't come, these people were not stupid, and they would definitely be able to see the situation in Luoyang City today.

Luoyang is located in the main basin of the Yellow River, here is the sphere of influence of the Tianhe Gang, that day the River Gang claims to help more than 10,000 people, the gang leader Huang Boliu has extremely high martial arts, is the No. 1 force in the rivers and lakes of Zhongzhou; there are also famous martial arts masters "Yellow River Ancestor" of the old man, Zu Qianqiu two ancestral residence in the Mengjin area, perennial control of the Henan green forest.

These people also received an invitation from the Wang family, but they all came to cheer for Xiaoao Jianghu Garden, and ignored the Wang family's birthday.

Either they have come to Luoyang and stood in the ranks of the Tianhe Gang and the Yellow River Ancestor, or they can only close the door under the pretext of illness, stay at home and watch the changes, and if they are in a different place, even Wang Yuanba will choose the same.

Wang Yuanba happily accompanied Yue Buqun to drink tea and wine all afternoon, talking about some trivial things in the rivers and lakes without nutrition, and waited until nightfall to feel tormented before Wang Zhongqiang came to whisper, saying that the characters on the street had already entered the "warm pot" in Xiaoao Jianghu Garden, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Jiajun and Wang Jiaju's two grandsons were confined to their homes for a day, and they also happily came to the back hall to ask their grandfather if they could set off fireworks.

On the night of August 15, fireworks should be set off to celebrate, and on the birthday of Mr. Wang, fireworks should be set off on the street outside the door, which is a well-known thing for the people in Luoyang City over the years.

"Let it go. Wang Yuanba replied listlessly, if it weren't for the people on the street who had entered the courtyard in the south, this fireworks would have to be set off in the courtyard of the house, aggrieved!

Wang Jiajun and the two of them just turned around and wanted to leave the hall, only to hear a bang in the sky outside, like a thunderbolt, everyone was startled, and Huo Ran stood up and ran to the porch to look in the sky.

"Ah, how can this firework be placed in the sky?" Wang Jiajun was the first to be surprised.

"No, this seems to be on top of our family!" Wang Jiaju followed closely.

"It's too much to deceive people!" Wang Yuanba got up and walked quickly to the door of the hall, Yue Buqun also stood up, and went to inspect together, only to see a big yellow chrysanthemum in the sky blooming vigorously, its size was like the crown of a thousand-year-old tree, and it was on top of his head.

This chrysanthemum has not yet been defeated, only to hear a sharp sound of "squeak" faintly heard, in the south of the night there is a shining meteor rising into the sky, cutting through the night sky, to the depths of the sky, followed by a deafening explosion resounded in all directions, a large bunch of blue-purple grapes from the sky suddenly appeared, particularly eye-catching and attractive.

After the sound of the explosion, I could hear the exclamations of the guests in my own courtyard, and I could hear the cheers of tens of thousands of people in the south park of the street.

When Wang Yuanba and the others were dumbfounded, they saw that there were meteors shooting into the sky one after another in the direction of Nanyuan, and a thunderous explosion came immediately, and the sky had become a sea of fireworks, some like rainbows, some like fountains, some like waterfalls, all kinds, beautiful.

"It's not over our heads, it's because the fireworks are so high that they feel like they're on top of our homes, just like the moon. Wang Bofen was not slow to think and gave his son a scientific explanation. But is it up to him to explain it? Everyone could see the fireworks rising straight into the sky from the southern courtyard.

Everyone looked up to the sky for a long time, only to feel that their necks were sore, but they were reluctant to hang their heads, just to take a more look at the colorful fireworks.

The erudite and talented Yue Buqun sighed with emotion: "This meteor signal technique has been in existence as early as the Song Dynasty, it is said that the predecessors of the Quanzhen Sect, the predecessor of this sect, walked the rivers and lakes, and used rockets to transmit messages and communicate with each other, but I didn't expect that now there are even more people who have enriched it to such a wonderful point, hehe, strange and ingenious skills, it can really confuse people's minds!"

Wang Menghua said: "My husband's family has also bought this kind of fireworks to set off, but they are not as long range as they are seen tonight, and they are not as gorgeous and rich. According to my husband, there are many workshops in the world that produce ordinary fireworks, but only the fireworks in Hankou Town are unique and well-known all over the world. It is said that there is an old fireworks shop in Hankou, the owner is a descendant of Huang Yipao, a skilled craftsman in the Song Dynasty, specializing in all kinds of bizarre fireworks, and his works are not only extremely expensive, but also refuse to sell even if the idlers can get enough gold and silver...... Now that the fireworks have been set off for a long time, the cost of this is only ...... I'm just afraid ......"

She wanted to say that the cost was only a sky-high price, but she couldn't say it because it would damage her father's face.

As he spoke, the fireworks that lasted for half an hour finally ended, and the night sky returned to its original depth, Wang Yuanba lowered his head and said to the two grandsons who were still holding their necks: "Don't let our fireworks go, my old king can't afford to lose this person, and before the New Year, our family will also go to Hankou to buy fireworks." ”

When the two grandsons were about to agree, suddenly four sounds came from the south, but they couldn't see the previous meteor rushing into the night sky, and everyone was startled again, not knowing what was going on.

In the astonishment, four thunderbolts suddenly sounded in the sky, and four fireworks dispersed, but when they saw the rain on the sky, they formed four big characters that covered the sky and the moon-

"Laugh", "Proud", "River", "Lake".

These four big characters are divided into red, green, blue and yellow, the colors are dazzling, across the night sky, lasting for a long time, only to hear a burst of cheers in the south courtyard, resounding throughout the city.

......

In the Xiaoao Jianghu Garden, between a large area of verdant green bamboo, Qian Qingjian and Ren Yingying snuggled side by side, also looking at the four big characters in the sky, Miss Ren's eyes flashed with crystal tears, and in the blurred tears, these four big characters seemed to turn into the bright smiles of the lovers around her.

Today's fancy and festive projects, of course, were not made to slap Wang Yuanba's face, in Qian Qingjian's eyes, Wang Yuanba was not qualified to be slapped in the face by him. Hitting a character of this level in the face has no sense of accomplishment at all.

It's just that today is the joy of Qian Qingjian's housewarming, but it can't be postponed because of Wang Yuanba's birthday.

The reason why it is so prosperous is, of course, what Miss Ren meant, the original intention was to celebrate the housewarming of the lover and make a lively and auspicious picture, but when Miss Ren said a word, these people in the rivers and lakes under her came to have a chance to perform, and a grand ceremony was born.

Among them, Qian Qingjian only participated in two things, the first was the plaque and couplet on the garden gate, which were written by him, and the second was to order someone to go to Hankou to find Huang Yipao's descendants.

At the beginning, he was unable to participate when Miss Guo Er Fangchen in Xiangyang City, but he knew that there was a Huang Yipao in Hankou who was good at making fireworks and fireworks, and when he married Ji Xiaorong of Hanyang in the Yuan Dynasty, through the connections of Ji Lao Hero, he also drank with the descendants of the Huang family.

At first, the descendants of the Huang family only regarded him as one of the many sons-in-law of Ji Lao Hero, and they didn't value it much, but later they learned that this person was the world-famous martial arts supreme, so they recorded this incident as the highest honor of the Huang family. Although it was the Ming Dynasty at this time, the descendants of the Huang family immediately rushed to Luoyang City after seeing the handwritten letter of "Qian Qingjian". After meeting Qian Supreme, according to Qian Supreme's guidance, he combined the family heirloom with the form of modern ceremonial flowers to create a feast of fireworks this night.

In order to make Miss Ren happy, Qian Supreme not only worked the fireworks, but also planted a large area of green bamboo in the inner courtyard where they lived, which was better than the quiet scenery in the green bamboo alley.

......

At the same time that Qian Qingjian and Ren Yingying watched the fireworks side by side, the people of the entire Luoyang City were also watching the flowers, and people rushed to tell each other, knowing that the fireworks were due to the housewarming of Qian Gongzi, who had recently moved to Luoyang.

In a lively street in the middle of the city, a group of women with long swords were also staring at the crowd. Ning Zhong, who was in the lead, held his daughter Yue Lingshan's hand, looked at the four big characters of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" suspended in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh faintly, and said in his heart: "Is it really a woman who is afraid of marrying the wrong man?"
