Brocade legend

Chapter 173 Spring Festival
"Then you tell father the story of Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong?" Lu Bing was busy with his work, looking for fun.

"Okay!" Xiuying said crisply: "It is said that Emperor Taizong of Tang was ill. He heard ghosts shouting outside the door and could not rest all night. So he asked Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong, the two generals, to stand guard by the door with weapons. The next day There were no more ghosts to harass at night. Later, Tang Taizong asked people to draw the images of these two generals and paste them on the door, and this custom began to spread among the people.”

Lu Bing heard that Xiuying seemed to be endorsing a book, and said strangely: "The little girl is very powerful! I remember it very well, where did you see it?"

"This is... what Dad told me..." Xiuying's complexion suddenly darkened. She looked at Lu Bing, who was posting the door god, and whispered: "When I was young, my father would post pairs every year and worship the door god. Tell me the story of the door god."

Lu Bing was taken aback, and immediately realized that the father Xiuying was referring to was Wang Zhaoyi.

Lu Bing looked at Xiuying with a sad face, turned to Yang Sen and said, "Go and buy Deputy Wei Chigong and Qin Shubao, and stick them on the door of Xiuying's room."

Both Xiuying and Yang Sen were taken aback, but Yang Sen immediately replied "Hello" and ran out quickly.

Xiuying asked suspiciously: "Father, didn't you say that our family cannot post Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong?"

"It's okay, let them protect you for your father!" Lu Bing said, brushing the door panel vigorously.

"..." Xiuying bit her lip and stopped talking.

Soon, Yang Sen bought the door god paintings of Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong, ran to the door of Xiuying's room, and pasted them up.

Seeing Yang Sen sticking to the goalkeeper, Xiuying opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end.

From her heart, she wanted to be more sensible, and she took the initiative to refuse to be close to Qin Shubao and Yu Chigong, but thinking of her biological father, she still couldn't make up her mind to refuse Lu Bing's consideration.However, since then, in her heart, Lu Bing no longer just called her father...

On New Year's Eve, everyone gathers together to toast and drink. Although Yang Lin, Zhu Liu, Sun Quan and Huang Lian'er are missing, everyone still puts down their worries for the time being and celebrates the arrival of the new year together.

As the new year comes, after the sound of firecrackers, the ground is filled with broken red like brocade, and the streets are full of auspiciousness and joy.

The only junior in the family, Xiuying, kowtowed to all the grandparents, uncles and uncles, and got a bunch of red envelopes, smiling from ear to ear.

When the first day of the lunar new year arrives, it is the traditional time to worship ancestors. Under the leadership of Lu Song, the Lu family knelt together to remember their ancestors. After the 11th year of Jiajing was really over, they went back to rest and prepared for the next day's New Year greetings. .

When Lu Bing came over, he had to start meeting with the superior on the second day of junior high school, and he still had to wait for his subordinates to visit him, so he was finally busy. ?
This year, because of Lu Bing, Jinyiwei has a new atmosphere, and everyone's life is better. Anyone who has friendship with Lu Bing will come to visit, Dongchengwei, Beizhen Fusi, come to sell... Lu Bing's family There was an endless stream of visitors at the door.

And after Lu Bing went to the palace to pay respects to Emperor Jiajing, he went to visit the home of the first assistant Fang Xianfu, and Fang Xianfu did not neglect at all.

Then Lu Bing visited the homes of Luo An, Wang Zuo and Chen Yin respectively in order.

The Spring Festival, in the midst of busy entertainment, passes quickly.

……

As the saying goes, but fifteen is a year.

If the fifteenth day of the first lunar month does not pass, it will not be considered as the end of the new year.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is also the last festival of the new year. On this night, the city of Beijing is full of lights and festoons, and it is very lively.

Lian Qiu, who had been bored at home for several months, suddenly wanted to go out and have a look.

Lu Bing didn't want Lianqiu to be unhappy, so he agreed.

Originally, they only brought the servant girls Xueyan, Li Shizhen and Lu An with them.

However, as soon as they got to the door, Yang Sen led Xiuying and chased after him, insisting on going together.

Seeing this situation, Lu Bing had no choice but to agree, thinking that there were so many people anyway, so he called Shitou again, thinking that there were so many people on the street, Shitou was tall, and whoever was squeezed out could still look at Shitou to find it .

On the street, bright red peach charms and Spring Festival couplets are hung at the door of every household, and they should be hung on the left and right sides of the door. Red, green and green lights of various colors, there are dragon lanterns, phoenix lanterns, lion lanterns, auspicious lanterns, wishful lanterns, and more than one year. Lamps, there are Fulu lamps, birthday lamps, and double happiness lamps, each of which is more delicately tied than the other, and each is brighter than the other.

The jugglers on the street are also busy, there are dragons, lions, stilts, dry boats, etc., in various forms and in different ways.They walk around the streets, with all the energy in their bodies, as if they have been holding back 360 or [-] days a year, just waiting for this day to come.

Girls and boys, adults and children, old men and old ladies, are all beaming, like the prosperous lanterns, one by one, one by one, and one by one, the streets and the ground are full of joy.

As soon as it got dark, the children came to the street with their own lanterns to light up the lanterns one after another, competing to see whose lantern was more beautiful.Those lanterns are all made of paper, and some are bought off-the-shelf foldable lanterns, which are more exquisite.But most of the lanterns are framed by children or family members with thin rods from sorghum, and then pasted with white paper with better light transmission, on which beautiful paper-cuts or pictures they like are painted.

There is a place to fix small candles under the lanterns. Some children did not insert the candles securely when the lights were turned on. If the candles tipped over, the lanterns would be burned to ashes, and they yelled angrily.

Some adults also became playful and laughed at him with other children. This child could only watch others lighting up lanterns sullenly.Some elders will buy another one for their children with a smile, or make a new one.

The Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the first lunar month is the world of lanterns. The streets are full of beautiful little lanterns, and the lights reflect the young and happy faces.

There are also some naughty children who will play the game of "touching the lights". The children go to the street with lanterns, and use their own lanterns to touch other people's lanterns when they meet.There are giggling and noisy voices everywhere.

"Father, father! I want a lantern!" Xiuying looked at the cock-fighting lanterns, double-goat headlamps, marquee lanterns, etc. in the hands of those children, and shouted to Lu Bing enviously.She holds a piece of candied haws that Yang Sen bought for her in each hand. The transparent sugar coating is draped on the bright red hawthorn fruit. It is sweet and sour, and it is one of the children's favorite foods.

Lu Bing smiled and bought her a big nine-turn palace cage, with various pictures painted in gold and color on it, and each layer and each side had a different pattern.Xiuying was so happy, she quickly ate a bunch of candied haws, and after throwing away the bamboo sticks, she freed her hand to hold the lantern, like a cheerful little swallow.

"Xiuying, run slowly!" Lianqiu was protected by Lu Bing and Shitou, one on the left and the other on the back, watching Xiuying wandering around, and said worriedly.
