Chapter 134 Lantern Festival Chapter
"Yes, master, there are people guarding every intersection." The people below said respectfully.
"Yeah." Ji Shiyan waved his hand and asked them to leave.
But my heart was in turmoil, and I was eager to invite Su Mu to watch the lantern festival.
There is also a test lantern festival before the Lantern Festival, which is similar to a rehearsal, to see where there are problems and which lanterns need repair.
"Little sister, can you just hang here and watch over me?"
My eldest brother climbed up a ladder and hung two rows of lights on both sides of the door. The strings of lanterns looked particularly beautiful.
"Yes, the location is perfect."
There are also many lantern decorations in the shop, some hanging or standing in various postures.
All the shops on the street have hung lanterns, which look particularly beautiful at first glance.
"Little sister, come and see, the lights in that house are so special!" The third brother greeted Sumu at the door.
It’s the Lantern Festival, and my family members have all come here early to prepare to visit the festival.
"Where?" The lanterns here are so exquisite and beautiful, they are totally works of art.
"Look, there." The third brother pointed to a shop.
Two toad lanterns were hung on the door of the shop.
"It's quite special." The two green toads are so vivid.
"Shopkeeper Su, the lanterns in your shop are so interesting." Other shopkeepers also came out to secretly see what lanterns were hung in other shops.
The lights in the Su family shop were specially made by lantern craftsmen. They fit the image of the shop very well. They are in the shape of a long string of food, and you can tell what the shop sells just by looking at it.
"The decoration of your shop is not bad either. It is very lifelike." This man is the owner of the Green Toad Shop.
"Hahahahaha, this is something I specially picked. I guarantee it will stand out among the crowd of lanterns." The shopkeeper laughed heartily and looked at the lanterns in other shops with his hands behind his back.
"Little sister, which shop should we hang up the lights in?" The eldest brother came over holding high two strings of vegetable lights.
"it is good."
Several others also held some decorative lights.
"This craftsman's craftsmanship is really great. These strings of lights are so beautifully made. They are so tempting just by looking at them."
"Left, hang a little more to the left."
"This?" The eldest brother turned around and asked.
"Yes, this location is just right."
The lights in the two shops were all hung up, and it looked like they were made by one person.
"Now we just have to wait until dark."
"Grandpa, we've hung it up." The family members were sitting in the backyard of the shop.
"Come, Mumu, I've made lanterns for you." Grandpa made a fish lantern for each of his grandchildren.
"Grandpa, this lantern is so beautiful."
Shaking a stick in hand, the carp's head and tail swayed, looking very agile.
Soon night fell and the lights came on. The stars in the sky were twinkling and the lanterns on the ground were lighting up one after another.
"Grandpa, let's go see the lantern festival!" Sumu was looking forward to it. The lights were so beautiful during the day, and he wondered how much more beautiful they would be at night.
"Let's go!" People put on seasonal clothes and went out to watch the lantern festival.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw several people standing outside.
"Su girl! We're here to watch the lantern festival with you!"
Outside were the retired emperor and Ji Shiyan. The retired emperor was dressed in an attire that looked very blessed.
"Grandpa Ji is here?"
"Little girls, I'm here to play with you. These are the lanterns we brought for you."
The few people behind were holding several lanterns, all of which were extremely exquisite.
"Grandpa Ji's lanterns are so beautiful!"
Ji Shiyan was also holding two lanterns in his hands. He handed one to Su Mu, "Mu Mu, this is for you." Under the light, Ji Shiyan's handsomeness was even more prominent.
"Is this a little rabbit?" Su Mu held the lantern in one hand and fiddled with it with the other. This lantern was a bit rough compared to those.
"It's my first time, so I didn't do it very well. I'll make you a better one next time."
"You made this yourself!" I didn't expect Ji Shiyan to have such a skill. The more I look at this rabbit, the more beautiful it becomes.
Su Mu smiled brightly, "Thank you."
"Let's go, let's go, you two can walk and talk, we're going to watch the lanterns!" said the emperor to Su Mu and Ji Shiyan.
Under the cover of night, groups of people were strolling outside, and many families were out playing together.
Su Mu looked at the children passing by, all of whom were holding a lantern in their hands.
"Little sister, there is a street scene with lanterns ahead, let's go take a look!" The third brother shouted from the front.
A long wooden stick with colorful lanterns hung side by side on it. The lantern vendors were still calling out, "Sir, madam, would you like to buy a lantern? The lanterns are bright and every family is safe!"
There are various kinds of lanterns on the stalls, including screen lanterns, pagoda lanterns, rolling lanterns, flower basket lanterns, as well as high-hanging lanterns made from various allusions, such as Liu Hai playing with the golden toad lanterns and Kuixing kicking the fighting lanterns.
"Little sister, there are various animal lanterns here! Cranes, sika deer, eagles!" The third brother looked at the lanterns excitedly.
Su Mu looked at the flower lanterns next to the animal lanterns and asked, "Stall owner, what are these lanterns?" There were even ropes attached to the lanterns.
"Girl, this is the lantern walk. Just hold the rope and walk with the lantern."
Su Mu took a rope and tried it. It turned out that he could walk the lantern just like walking a pet. There were wheels under the lantern and candles in the animal's belly.
"This is fun!" Su Mu took it and slid around and around.
"Boss, give me a few of these lanterns." Seeing that Su Mu liked them, Ji Shiyan bought a few and gave one to everyone.
"Okay, sir, you can choose whatever you want."
Su Mu chose her sika deer lantern. The deer is of medium size and it looks very cool when held!
"I want to choose a wolf! I'll also choose a brown bear lamp for my second brother!" Su An was picking and choosing.
"Why did you choose a brown bear for me?" Su Zhiwu wondered.
"You are very powerful and strong!" Su An said without hesitation. His second brother is so powerful that he must choose someone who suits his status.
"Ji Shiyan, you come and choose one!"
"Please choose one for me." Ji Shiyan said with a faint smile.
"Then you should choose a deer lantern like me!"
"Okay, then I'll just do the same as you."
"My lantern is the most beautiful!" a little child shouted nearby.
In front of the child is a horse head shape, holding a bow and arrow, and behind him is a lantern on the horse's back, fully dressed.
"Ji Shiyan, the lanterns are actually okay?!" Su Mu had never seen anything like this before.
"It can be worn. The size is usually children's size."
"OK then."
She was a little tempted just now, but then she thought it would be a bit embarrassing for an adult to wear a horse lantern walking on the street. Of course, it would be completely okay if someone accompanied her to wear it!
"Guess the riddles, guess the riddles, guess the riddles and win a lantern!"
"Shall we go guess riddles?" Su Mu looked at his family.
"Go! Let's go and join in too."
The elders looked at the children kindly, full of happiness and joy, as they strolled slowly and enjoyed this lively and peaceful scene.
