Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress - Chapter 1901 Ning Huaixiu is dead (4)
Caiwei shook her head with a smile and expressed her thoughts: “Do you want a lantern? Can Mom buy a lantern for you?”
Under the three masks, three pairs of dark eyes were spinning. The buns stared at these lanterns of different shapes, all showing expressions of liking, but their mother couldn’t see it.
“want!”
Under the mask, I don’t know if it was Jin’er or Yu’er who agreed. I could tell he was very excited and seemed to like these lanterns very much.
“Mom, I want it too, I want a rabbit lantern!”
Mingzhu nestled in Caiwei’s arms and pointed to a stall selling animal lanterns in the distance.
“Boss, how much does a lantern cost?”
Caiwei held her daughter in her arms and walked to the small stall where Mingzhu liked the money. Nangong Yi followed the mother and daughter with a pair of sons in her arms. The vendor said enthusiastically: “All the lanterns are the same price, two taels.” A cup of silver. ”
Caiwei sighed in her heart. It was really expensive. Even if she could afford it, ordinary people wouldn’t buy such a thing. It can’t be eaten or worn. However, fortunately, she has passed the time and put the two taels of silver in it. The situation in her eyes was such that she could afford even twenty two hundred and two hundred taels.
She generously let the children each choose one, and then paid the money.
When the stall owner saw that he had sold six taels of silver at once, he was so happy that he couldn’t even open his eyes. He said with a smile: “Master, madam, walk slowly and come back on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. There will be lantern riddles that day. If you guess it, you can win for free.” A lamp, but if you can’t guess it three times, you have to pay the smaller one in silver…”
Caiwei is the best at guessing lantern riddles. Nangong Yi has read poetry and books since he was a child, so it shouldn’t be a problem for him. However, they don’t have time to join in the fun. At this time four days later, they should be in Qing Dynasty. In the palace of Luo Kingdom!
“Look, look, the dragon lantern is coming!”
Someone shouted. Caiwei listened and heard a faint sound of gongs and drums.
“Dong Dong Qiang, Dong Dong Qiang”, the sound of gongs and drums was getting closer and closer, and I saw a group of people holding thousands of scales, giant dragon lanterns with claws and teeth coming from the street. The giant dragon was chasing the red dragon lanterns. The orb is flying and jumping, sometimes high, like flying into the clouds, and sometimes low, like the breaking waves of the sea, winding and moving, it is really beautiful.
The dragon dance team changed styles as they walked, performing moves such as “Two dragons playing with beads”, “Two dragons emerging from the water”, “Fire dragon taking flight”, “Coiled dragon making waves in the sea”, etc. Pedestrians watching the lanterns on the street swarmed up. Nangong Yi She hugged her two sons tightly, not looking at the dragon lantern, but keeping a close eye on Caiwei and her daughter to prevent his wife and daughter from being crowded away by the crowd.
Many little kids were riding on their father’s neck, clapping their hands and laughing, and occasionally saying a few words to their father affectionately. There were cheers from the crowd, which heightened the atmosphere of the entire lantern festival to the highest level.
Many people followed the steps of the dragon dance team and walked forward. Behind them came the lion dance team. There were two people per lion, followed by several big lions, swaying left and right to the rhythm of the drums. The two people in front and behind cooperated tacitly. From time to time, they can also roll around in the ground and perform a lion rolling a hydrangea ball.
The journey was lively and lively, and there were more and more people. The three milk buns had never seen such a lively scene before, and they were all excited. Mingzhu simply took off the mask on her face so that she could watch carefully.
“Over there, it’s the man and woman holding the child in front. They were the ones who beat the wife!”
In the excitement, a man’s voice suddenly rang out. Caiwei heard it as if he was talking about them, so she followed the sound and saw a dozen men in servant clothes squeezing towards them from all directions. Still with a bit of excitement.
