Rebirth 96: Begin the life of a monster from kindergarten

Chapter 382: The Tang Dynasty City That Never Sleeps

On the Lantern Festival, in Yueshan Tang Street, thousands of flowers bloom in the night breeze.

The quaint Tang-style buildings appear even more exquisite under the night and lights, like a city that never sleeps.

Under the deliberate guidance of Dreamweaver Culture, various traditional cultural products are displayed in each store, especially Yueshan’s business card - Hanfu.

There were crowds of tourists, some locals taking a stroll, some sightseeing from other places, going in and out of the shops.

The sounds of hawking, soliciting customers and exclamations are endless.

In addition, there are jugglers, drummers, lantern performers, shadow puppeteers, and candy figurine blowers. All kinds of small shows fill Tang Street during this festival, attracting passers-by to stop and watch.

It can truly be said that: the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the light of the jade pot turns, and the fish and dragons dance all night.

Influenced by the Yueshan Hanfu Cultural Festival, young people wearing Hanfu can often be seen among tourists, especially girls, who walk in groups of three or four, snapping photos with their mobile phones or cameras.

Everyone seems to have gotten used to this and is no longer surprised. When they meet someone, they will just look at them a few times. If the girl is very beautiful, they will look at her a few more times.

There was suddenly some commotion at the entrance of Tang Street.

"Look over there, those two people are wearing really nice Hanfu!"

"They are a couple, right? They seem to have great bodies!"

"It's a pity that you can't see his true face because he's wearing a mask!"

"Wait, let me take a picture!"

Following people's gaze, I saw two men and women dressed in Hanfu, holding hands, merging into the crowd from the entrance.

After entering Tang Street, the two of them stopped from time to time to look around, chat, or go into the nearby shops to buy some snacks.

Zhao Jinmai saw Zhang Yihang constantly buying snacks, "Didn't you come here after dinner? Why are you hungry again?"

Zhang Yihang chuckled, took a bite of the skewers, and muttered, "If I don't buy some snacks when I come here, I'll always feel like something is missing. Besides, they're just snacks, which won't fill my stomach!"

Zhao Jinmai smiled and stretched out her finger to wipe off a grain of cumin from the corner of his mouth.

The two of them went out to stroll around Tang Street during the Lantern Festival. They dressed up really well. In order to avoid being recognized and attracting onlookers, they even wore an ancient-style mask, which matched the Hanfu they were wearing very well.

After all, Zhang Yihang is famous. Once their identities are exposed, they will not be able to go shopping and people will just be watching them.

Because there were many young people wearing Hanfu on the street, and they were not the only ones wearing masks, they were not too conspicuous in the crowd.

It's just that the two of them are of outstanding height and figure, and they stand out among the crowd like a crane among chickens, which still attracted many people to look at them, and some even took secret photos with their mobile phones.

As they were eating, two girl students came over and stood in front of them and asked, "Excuse me, can I take a photo with you two? You look so good in Hanfu!"

The girl who asked the question was very polite. After she finished speaking, she waited anxiously and expectantly for the two men's reply. The companion next to her was a little shy. She just looked up at Zhang Yixing from time to time, pretending to be casual.

Zhang Yixing turned his head to look at Zhao Jinmai, and Zhao Jinmai also looked at him with a smile in his eyes.

Then she nodded and said to the girl who asked the question, "Okay!"

The two girls were immediately overjoyed and quickly took out their mobile phones. They first stood on either side of Zhang Yixing and Zhao Jinmai and asked passers-by to help take a group photo, and then took a group photo separately. After checking the photos, the two seemed very satisfied, thanked them and left happily.

Zhao Jinmai watched the two people leave. The shy girl looked back several times. She leaned close to Zhang Yixing's ear and whispered, "Look at your charm. Even with a mask it can't be hidden! If they knew it was you, they would be even happier!"

Zhang Yihang nodded frantically with a thick face, "Of course, just like when Yang Guo took off his mask, Li Mochou was no longer worried!"

"You're so conceited!" Zhao Jinmai held his hand and squeezed his fingers hard, but Zhang Yixing held her hand back and pulled her forward slowly.

Zhang and his party stopped when they reached a two-story building in the middle of the long street.

There is a two-story building next to it. The second floor seems to be a stage. There is also a plaque hanging on the roof with four words "Poetry Gathering" on it.

Zhang Yixing nodded. It seemed that Chen Fei prepared quite quickly.

In the coming Hanfu Cultural Festival, the poetry gathering will be integrated into the festival and become a regular program, adding luster to the festival.

At the same time, the provincial TV station's "Chinese Poetry Conference" will also be broadcast at the same time. At that time, the two programs will be linked to further expand the influence of the Yueshan Hanfu Cultural Festival.

By then, the hardware will include the Tang Dynasty City That Never Sleeps and the Hanfu industry, and the software will include the Hanfu Cultural Festival, plus the bonus of variety shows, which will further consolidate Yueshan's orthodox position in the Hanfu industry.

The only pity is that the construction of the real Tang City started not long ago and it will take several years to complete. By that time, when Tang Street and Tang City are connected, this "Tang City That Never Sleeps" will be truly worthy of its name.

By that time, not only the cultural and tourism industry will benefit, but also the Hanfu industry, the film and television industry, and even the future internet celebrity economy, all of which will have laid a good foundation.

"Brother, sister, can I take a photo with you?"

A little girl suddenly ran over and looked up at Zhang Yixing and Zhao Jinmai. Her mother also came over and said shyly, "My child has been watching you two for a long time and wants to take a photo together. Is that okay?"

"Okay!" Zhao Jinmai touched the little girl's face and nodded.

So there was another group photo, and it was said to be a group photo of the little girl, and the child’s mother also took one.

Just walk and stop, look around, eat, watch some traditional shows, and occasionally be asked by passers-by to take photos with them.

It took the two of them more than two hours to walk through this Tang Street, enjoying the rare time together.

If there is a downside to being famous, it is the loss of some privacy. If you don’t hide your identity while walking hand in hand like this, you may not have the chance to enjoy peace at all.

Looking back at the bustling Tang Street, Zhang Yixing said proudly: "Of the shops here, half of the street belongs to me. I'll transfer it to your name someday, and you'll become a landlady. You can wear pajamas, get a perm, and smoke a cigarette. You'll be absolutely stunning!"

Ever since Stephen Chow filmed "Kung Fu", the image of the landlady and the landlord has become fixed.

Zhao Jinmai smiled and said, "I don't want to be the landlady. You should be the landlord!"

After laughing for a long time, she said softly, "Let's go check out that kindergarten tomorrow. Compared to being a landlady, I still prefer being Teacher Zhao!"

"Yes, sir, Teacher Zhao!" Zhang and his entourage saluted Zhao Jinmai.

The two of them left Tang Street laughing and got on the car back to the courtyard on the mountain.
