Chapter 274 Qinhuai Lantern Festival [Fifth update]

When the first moon is full, the lights are new, and the lights all over the city are as white as silver.

There are thousands of lamps under the full moon, and there is one full moon in the middle of the shining lamps.

Look at the lanterns under the moon for wealth, and admire the full moon in front of the lanterns.

Tonight, under the moonlight, there are people watching the lanterns and admiring the moon.

...

Confucius Temple Lantern Festival, also known as Qinhuai Lantern Festival.

The history of the Qinhuai Lantern Festival can be traced back to the Southern Dynasties, when the custom of holding the traditional Lantern Festival appeared in Jiankang, the capital of the country.

It developed rapidly in the Tang Dynasty and reached its peak in the Ming Dynasty.

As the ancient capital of six dynasties and the capital of ten dynasties, the Qinhuai Lantern Festival, as an important folk activity, has always been a social and cultural space for people of all ages to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, pray for good luck, and be a festive and lively social and cultural space.

Qinhuai culture is the representative of the ancient Jinling civilization, and the Qinhuai Lantern Festival is an important carrier of inheriting the excellent traditional culture of Qinhuai.

The ancients attached great importance to the Lantern Festival, and many great poets mentioned it in their poems.

Ouyang Xiu: "On Yuan Dynasty last year, the lights in the flower market were as bright as day; the moon was on the willow branches, and people made appointments after dusk."

Xin Qiji (The Sapphire Case) wrote: "People have searched for it thousands of times, but when I suddenly look back, I see that person in a dimly lit place."

It describes the scene of the Lantern Festival Night. In the traditional opera, Chen San and Wu Niang met during the Lantern Festival and fell in love at first sight. Lechang Gongwen and Xu Deyan reunited on the Lantern Festival night. In "Spring Lantern Riddles", Yu Wenyan and Ying Niang made a reservation at the Lantern Festival.

Affection.

Therefore, the Lantern Festival is also China’s “Valentine’s Day”.

...

"My dear, it's so beautiful. I like this kind of lantern festival. Although there are many people, the atmosphere is really good."

In the Confucius Temple, Sisi was wrapped tightly, with only a pair of eyes exposed. At this time, both hands were holding Qin Dong's arms, and his head was wandering around looking around. He felt dazzled by all kinds of lanterns and colored lights. There were so many.

The shape is very cute.

"Of course, this lantern festival tradition has been going on for thousands of years. Every year, there are more than just locals. If you look at the people around you, there are actually many outsiders, even foreigners."

Qin Dong smiled and explained.

As the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, it retains many historical and cultural traditions.

"Well, well, it's a pity that it's not convenient for us to take pictures, otherwise such a beautiful scene would definitely be beautiful to shoot."

Sisi's little head was nodding wildly, but she just said something with a little pity.

"..."

Qin Dong looked at the woman's expression and wanted to agree to her and help her fulfill her wish.

It's just that if you are recognized, you can't escape in such a crowded situation, and then the lantern festival will not be held. It can be said that the gain outweighs the loss.

"You can try it without taking off the mask."

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Dong finally said this, which could be regarded as barely fulfilling the woman's wish.

"ah..."

Sisi's head showed two eyes, her big eyes rolled around, and she was a little moved:

"That's okay, my dear, let's take pictures. We're going to take more photos today and show Mimi when we go back. She'll be so jealous."

Qin Dong was startled, wasn't this looking for trouble for him?

It seems that Sisi is still very jealous.

"Uncle, aunt, let's take pictures together."

At this time, Sisi didn't care what the man thought and greeted Qin Dong's parents.

"Sisi, can you... show your faces?"

Liu Lan was a little hesitant.

"Auntie, we won't take off the mask for the photo shoot."

Sisi said with a smile.

"That's it, come on then."

This time Qin Dong not only came with his family, but Zheng Dajun also came with his bodyguards, but they all wore masks.

I just want to be a tool to take pictures, otherwise I would have to trouble others to take pictures for me.

The family of four walked around, taking photos in front of all the lanterns and lanterns with various characteristics.

Dragon boats are also indispensable. When you come to the Qinhuai River, how can you not swim the Qinhuai River at night?

The beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River at night is also a major feature of the local area.

It's a pity that things have changed. I think back to the beautiful scenery of the Huaihe River many years ago. It was a favorite place for literati and poets.

...

Confucius Temple is a place where Confucius is enshrined and worshiped. After several historical changes, it has always been a prosperous place in Jinling.

It integrates historic sites, gardens, boats, streets, pavilions and folk customs.

The Qinhuai Lantern Festival is held not only in Confucius Temple, but also in Laomen East, Bailuzhou Park, Zhanyuan, Wu Jingzi’s Former Residence Exhibition Hall, Jiangnan Gongyuan Exhibition Hall, Zhonghuamen Wengcheng Exhibition Hall and Zhonghua Road, Pingjiangfu Road, Zhanyuan Road

, there are also places such as the Papi Road area. They are displayed in many places and all kinds of lanterns are blooming. The lights are bright and shine in Jinling.

It’s just that Confucius Temple has the largest flow of people and is also the center of attention.

Especially for outsiders, the first choice place to visit the Qinhuai Lantern Festival is Confucius Temple.

There are rickshaws here, the kind of vehicles pulled by special people in ancient times, as well as various performances, including paper cutting, diabolo, knotting, carving, shadow puppets, animal dance, yangko, stilt walking and other activities.

Another specialty of Confucius Temple is snacks.

In ancient times, there were "Eight Wonders of Qinhuai": Huangqiao Shaobing and Kaiyang Dried Shreds, Beef Soup and Beef Pot Stickers, Bean Curd and Scallion Pancakes, Duck Butter Shaobing and Assorted Vegetable Buns, Sesame Oil Dried Shreds and Shredded Chicken Noodles, Osmanthus-filled Lantern Festival

And five-color cakes, smoked fish silver noodles and thin-skin dumplings, spiced beans and spiced eggs.

Today there are "Eight Wonders of Qinhuai": small shaomai, small tea steamed buns, braised dried meat, duck blood soup, steam pot black-bone chicken, deep-fried stinky dried chicken, steamed plum blossom cake, and Yuhua stone glutinous rice balls.

"Looking at it makes me want to eat it."

Since they came to watch the lantern festival, how could they not eat? It was a pity that Qin Dong and Liu Sisi couldn't eat.

Looking at the all kinds of tempting food, full of color, flavor and taste, Liu Sisi felt her mouth watering. She couldn't help but complain to Qin Dong, her big eyes blinking, hinting at the man.

"How about we pack some when we go back?"

Qin Dong felt that taking off his mask was a bit risky, so he leaned into Sisi's ear and whispered suggestions.

"Hey...that's all we can do."

After being packaged, many of the foods actually tasted not as good as those delivered on site, but there was nothing that could be done about it. Sisi understood, but after rolling her eyes around, she couldn't help but take out her phone and start taking pictures.

This time I didn’t take pictures of people, but of various snacks.

I took pictures of everything, and even after I finished taking pictures, I sent them to a certain little sister.

"Honey, come on, let's take some pictures with our mobile phones."

Sisi was very lively tonight. After taking pictures of snacks, she pulled Qin Dong and Qin Dong together and took 18 consecutive shots.

"good."

After the photo was taken, the woman checked it and muttered to herself, and then sent it to a certain little sister.

Qin Dong watched with cold eyes, always feeling that something was going to happen.

"Jingle Bell..."

As I was thinking this, my cell phone rang.

Taking out his cell phone and looking at the caller [Da Mimi], Qin Dong couldn't help but look at Sisi and gave the woman a look to let the other person experience it.

"Giggle..."

Sisi saw who the caller on the man's cell phone was, and looked at the helpless expression the man looked at her, and couldn't help but let out a malicious laugh.

Qin Dong had a straight face and stared at the culprit.

"Give it to me and I'll pick it up."

Sisi couldn't stand Qin Dong's eyes anymore, so she took the initiative to rescue him.

She took the man's phone, walked to the side and spoke softly.

"Son, did you call me the girl who came to Jingnan a few months ago and met us?"

Liu Lan and Qin Jianjun, who had been following their son, saw their future daughter-in-law walking aside to answer the phone and quickly came over to ask in a low voice.

"Um."

Qin Dong didn't care that his mother was watching and eavesdropping, so he nodded and admitted.

"..."

Liu Lan's eyes widened. She never expected that her son could really take care of two daughters-in-law.

And depending on the situation, we get along pretty well.

"Old man, let's go over there and have a look."

Thinking of the many grandsons and granddaughters in the future, Liu Lan happily took Qin Jianjun aside so as not to disturb her son.
