Chapter 140 Kongming Lantern

The performance of the Lantern Festival is very different from other performances. There are no skits and magic tricks, but only singing and dancing, dragon and lion dances, and fireworks.

"Hi everyone, I'm Xue Jun, the host for today, happy Lantern Festival everyone!" The first one who came up was a male host.

"Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan Festival, Xiaozhengyue, Yuanxi or Lantern Festival, is the [-]th day of the first lunar month every year. It is one of the traditional festivals in my country. The first month is the first month of the lunar calendar. The ancients called "night" as "xiao" , so the fifteenth day of the first full moon of the year is called the Lantern Festival."

"In the ancient customs of China, Shangyuan Festival, Zhongyuan Festival and Xiayuan Festival are collectively called Sanyuan. The Lantern Festival began in the Han Dynasty more than 2000 years ago. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty ordered the fifteenth day of the first lunar month to be the Lantern Festival. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty , "Taiyi God" sacrificial activities are scheduled on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. When Sima Qian created the "Taichu Calendar", he had already determined the Lantern Festival as a major festival."

"The traditional customs of the Lantern Festival go out to enjoy the moon, light lanterns and flames, like to guess lantern riddles, eat Lantern Festival together, and pull rabbit lanterns, etc. Twisting Yangko, playing Taiping drums and other traditional folk performances."

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense, let's enjoy the singing and dancing performed by the Shanghai Song and Dance Troupe to celebrate the Lantern Festival!"

After the host finished speaking, he left the stage, and the lights on the stage dimmed instantly. When the lights came on, many women in gorgeous clothes appeared on the stage. As the music sounded, they began to dance on the stage.

Qiqi sat in Papa's arms, watching the performance on the stage with her big cute eyes open, even though she was sitting at such a high place, the little girl didn't feel any fear, while Lin Yatong leaned on Yang Guang's shoulder , but felt very stable in her heart, even if it was the end of the world, the man beside her would protect her, and at the same time she felt a little excitement in her heart, Lin Yatong was educated in the way of nobility since she was a child, and girls in nobility education Climbing a tree is a very unladylike behavior. It is the first time for her to climb a tree at such a big age. The first time is always so exciting and exciting.

The songs and dances on the stage were carried out one by one. During the dragon and lion dance, Qiqi shouted excitedly. The lion and dragon rolled on the stage and jumped into the air on the ladder. The scene was very exciting and soon Before I knew it, it came to eight o'clock, and at this time the performance on the stage came to an end.

"The show is coming to an end before we know it, let's start our most important show today, fireworks!" The host said as he stepped onto the stage.

"Papa, what are fireworks?" Qiqi asked strangely.

Yang Guang didn't buy fireworks during the Spring Festival. One is that Qiqi is too young to play with this thing, and it's dangerous, so it's not suitable for children to play with. Another is that Yang Guang and Lin Yatong are not interested in this thing. , so Yang Guang didn't buy it, and Qiqi has never seen fireworks blooming.

"Fireworks are beautiful things that bloom into the sky. Do you still remember the song my father sang when we went out for an outing last time? It's called fireworks, that's fireworks." Yang Guang said with a smile.

"But Qiqi is very dangerous, we can only play it when Dad is around!" Yang Guang reminded again.

"Yeah!" The little girl nodded obediently, and at the same time, her heart was full of surprise. What is it? Papa said it was dangerous, but it was also very beautiful.

"Boom boom!!!" There was a deafening explosion.

"咻咻咻!!!" The gorgeous flames pierced the dark night sky and rushed towards the sky. When they reached the highest point, beautiful patterns bloomed instantly, illuminating the night sky with colorful lights.

Fireworks are blooming in the sky, because this year is the Year of the Pig, so many fireworks in the night sky are in the shape of pigs.

"Wow..." Qiqi opened her small mouth slightly and looked up at the colorful fireworks in the night sky in surprise. The colorful and changeable fireworks dyed the sky in brilliant colors.

The little girl's appearance at this time is really cute, and people can't help but want to kiss her tender little face.

The beauty of fireworks is only for a moment, and their life is to bloom the beauty of this moment.

"The Lantern Festival is over, thank you for watching, and I wish you a happy Lantern Festival again!" Soon, the fireworks show ended.

"Papa, the fireworks are so beautiful!" Qiqi said with some unfinished thoughts.

"Okay, the Lantern Festival is over, let's go home!" Yang Guang said with a smile.

"Hmm!" Kiki nodded her head.

"Close your eyes, Dad is going to take you down." Yang Guang said.

"Can Qiqi go down with her eyes open?" Qiqi asked expectantly.

"Then Qiqi, don't be afraid!" Yang Guang said with a smile.

"Qiqi is not afraid!" Qiqi said firmly with a small face.

"Okay!" Yang Guang nodded.

"Yatong, don't you close your eyes?" Qiqi turned to look at Lin Yatong and asked, at the same time Qiqi also looked at Mama.

"Of course!" Lin Yatong said firmly after seeing Qiqi looking over.

"Okay then, pay attention, I'm going to take you down." After speaking, Yang Guang held Qiqi in one hand and Lin Yatong's willow waist in the other and jumped down. He just jumped down at the speed of ordinary people.

"what"

"what"

Two voices screamed, one was the voice of a woman full of fear, and the other was the voice of a girl screaming excitedly.

After Lin Yatong fell to the ground, her feet felt a little weak. Fortunately, Yang Guang supported her, and she recovered after a while.

"Hee hee, Papa, Qiqi is not afraid, let's do it again!" Qiqi said with a smile.

"Qiqi, jumping from a high place is very dangerous. You can't jump by yourself, and you can't even be taken by others. Only dad can take you, otherwise you will get injured, you know?"Yang Guang found himself Wrong, Kiki should not be taken up the tree, children do not understand the awareness of danger.

Seeing Papa's serious expression, Qiqi also knew that this matter was very important, so she said obediently: "Qiqi knows."

"Okay, let's go home!" Yang Guang said with a smile.

After speaking, he took Qiqi to the gate when he came to Happy Valley.

"Papa, look!" When they came to the square at the gate again, Qiqi suddenly pointed to the square in surprise.

I saw a lot of people in the square setting off Kongming lanterns. As the Kongming lanterns were lit, the Kongming lanterns flew into the sky. Many Kongming lanterns were flying in the dark night sky. The scene was very spectacular.

"Papa, what is this?" Kiki asked curiously.

"This is Kongming Lantern, also known as Sky Lantern, commonly known as Wishing Lantern, also known as Prayer Sky Lantern. It was made by a man named Kong Ming during the Three Kingdoms period." Yang Guang explained.

"Come on, let's light the Kongming lanterns too."

After talking, the family of three walked to a stall in the square, which is the place where Kongming lanterns are sold.

"How much is a Kongming lantern?" Yang Guang asked.

"51!" said the stall owner.

"Here!" Yang Guang put down the 50 yuan and took a Kongming lantern and a lighter. The lighter was included in the money of the Kongming lantern.

The three came to the square, Yang Guang put Qiqi on the ground, he unpacked the Kongming lantern packaging bag, and then extended the Kongming lantern.

"Yatong, come on!" Yang Guang put the lighter in Lin Yatong's hand.

"Okay!" Lin Yatong nodded with a light smile.

Yang Guang pinched the two sides of the top of the Kongming lantern with both hands so that the Kongming lantern could be unfolded. Qiqi looked up at the poopy movements expectantly with her little head up.

Lin Yatong carefully held the lighter into the sky above the wick, lit the wick with a snap, and quickly withdrew her hand.

The flame on the wick quickly became vigorous, and the heat made the Kongming lantern swell, and soon the Kongming lantern was fully supported by the heat, a buoyancy was born inside the Kongming lantern, Yang Guang slowly let go of his hand, and saw The Kongming Lantern flew slowly into the sky.

"It's flying, Papa, the Kongming Lantern is flying." Qiqi shouted excitedly, raising her head.

Yang Guang held Qiqi in his arms, and the family of three looked up at the Kongming Lantern slowly flying into the sky with smiles on their faces.

The red Kongming lanterns flew higher and higher, and soon joined the army of countless Kongming lanterns in the night sky, but the Kongming lanterns they lit felt so conspicuous in their eyes.

The family of three didn't return home until it was almost nine o'clock in the evening, and then they washed and went to bed. Kiki was a little tired from playing tonight, and fell asleep quickly in the story Papa told.
