Chapter 207: Moon Drinking Reunion

After lighting up, how festive and beautiful it should be. mobile network

The younger children of the Luo family were chasing and playing in the courtyard with lanterns at the moment. At this time, no one would tell them about the rules and regulations. In fact, the children of the Luo family were not so strict.

The other masters of the Luo family are also scattered all over the courtyard at this time, eating small snacks slowly and chatting, it is rare for a family to be so leisurely.

Jingwan leaned slightly, resting her elbows on the table and supporting her cheeks, her expression was indifferent and leisurely, her eyes flicked over the lanterns in the hands of her younger brothers and sisters, not to mention those beautifully colored paper and bamboo lanterns. , There are also very simple grapefruit lamps, jack-o-lanterns, watermelon lamps, orange lamps, apple lamps, etc. The so-called grapefruit lamp is to hollow out the grapefruit, remove the outer skin and remove the inner white flesh, leaving only a thin layer , and then engraved various lifelike and exquisite patterns on it, put on a rope, and light a candle inside, the light is elegant, and other lights are basically the same.

These melon lanterns are mostly made by ordinary people who have no money to buy lanterns for their children. I don’t know when they became popular in rich and noble families, but they are more exquisitely made. They just go to the heart and carve on the shell, or The most common, there are some handy, using these, can make lanterns comparable to lanterns.

However, these lights of the Luo family did not change their original appearance, they simply worked hard on the skin. Jingwan had read it carefully before and expressed her admiration for the people who made these lanterns. In the past life, these people were all masters, but at the moment, this kind of craftsman is too common. Have.

Hey, Jingwan saw an oversized winter gourd lantern. The shape is the most common long cylindrical shape, but the head is really too big, more than one meter in length, and how thick it is, probably an adult can't hold it. Come. Jingwan was a little surprised, even in her previous life, it should be difficult to see such a big winter melon, right?

Even though the shape of the lamp is sideways, the appearance of the winter melon has not changed at all, which shows that the flesh of the melon should be quite thick. The ten-year-old boy is still struggling to hold it.

It wasn't just Jing Wan's gaze that attracted the attention of other peas.

Even adults, they all said a few words to the winter melon lantern.

Children are very curious about peculiar things. Naturally, they want to take possession of this curiosity. The older ones probably just watch it eagerly, while the younger ones don’t know what restraint is. Reach out to grab.

So, it is no surprise that a battle for winter gourd lanterns took place.

A group of little beanies started fighting, but the older ones knew how to measure it, plus there were servants watching, if it really got really hot, they would pull it off at the first time, and then the others would watch the show upside down. .

Jingwan was speechless for a moment, seeing that their respective parents were in high spirits. In other words, when they were in Qi'an Mansion, this kind of situation never happened. Could it be that this is a popular new way of dating each other?

The final result ended with the death of the wax gourd lantern. After it became a lamp, it hadn't been lit, and then there was a loud cry, and the juice from the broken wax gourd made the small beans all dirty. Yes, and in the process of fighting, his hair was messed up, his clothes were loose, and he was miserable.

Seemingly enough, the patriarch Luo Peishan waved his hand, okay, the children in each room carried them away and went back to wash and change.

Don't think that you seem to be in the presence of the old god from beginning to end, and no one will discover your vile nature and never cultivate.

After Sun Yijia was originally surprised, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. The whole person seemed very relaxed and happy. This kind of thing would never happen in Dingguo Gong's mansion. If it was really a child fighting, the adults behind them , The most disgusting thing that can make troubles is not necessarily out of sincere protection for one's own child. The child's injury and the child's crying are all bargaining chips for intrigue, and may even be deliberately enlarged.

When the little Doudings returned one by one, they were clean, and their innocent smiles returned to their faces.

And the servants have successively presented all kinds of food, water and wine.

And the night began to fall. The lanterns located in the courtyard were lit one by one. From all directions, one lantern came on one after another. Jingwan felt that the feeling was a bit strange, and all the lights were lit. After that, it was as beautiful as expected.

Looking at the sky again, although it is not yet completely dark, the full moon is already hanging in the air, and the stars are scattered scattered, and there is no cloud in the sky. It is conceivable that tonight will be a very good one. Moonlit night.

When the sky was completely dark, a large incense table was placed in the courtyard, and melon and fruit snacks were placed on the table for offerings. Among them, moon cakes and watermelons were absolutely indispensable, and this watermelon had to be cut into lotus shapes.

The moon cakes on the incense table were given by Emperor Cheng, and it was naturally the best thing to use for offering sacrifices to the moon. Of course, there was also a specially made reunion moon cake, which was not too small.

Under the moonlight, place the statue of the moon god in the direction of the moon, the red candle burns high, starting with Mrs. Luo, and the female relatives of the whole family worship in turn. That's right, only the female relatives participated. This male gender, from old to young, obediently watched from the side.

The so-called "men do not worship the moon, women do not worship the stove".

The moon belongs to the lunar yin, and the moon god Chang'e is a woman, so women can only worship the moon. If a man bows humbly, it is a sign of wrongdoing. Correspondingly, according to folklore, the Kitchen God is a male god incarnated by mythological figures such as Emperor Yan or Zhu Rong.

What the hell is this, Jing Wan can only feel in her heart about this.

After worshiping the moon, Mrs. Luo opened the knife to cut the reunion moon cake. How many people there are in Luo Peishan’s lineage, they should cut more and more, including the eldest grandson of the big house. Speaking of which, Luo Peishan’s family is all in the capital. In previous years, Wang's chief swordsman would also count those in Qi'an Mansion, while Jingwan and the others would count those in the capital in Qi'an Mansion.

However, every time at this time, Luo Peishan would always mention that he would always bring a share of his second brother, the second master Luo who was a famous scholar for 20 years and who was full of peaches and plums.

To say that cutting moon cakes is a technical task, and each portion must be the same size. However, this does not seem to be difficult for Mrs. Luo. Although the speed is a bit slower, the final result is gratifying. Everyone present took a piece, and the rest were placed on the incense table.

The family is happy, but there are also those who are sad, such as the aunts of various rooms. They are also allowed to come out to get together today, but whether it is worship or moon cakes, they have no share.

Then, there are people who are embarrassed, that is the Gu family, this moon cake, Mrs. Luo did not prepare their share, it seems to be justified, but the treatment is the same as the aunt of the Luo family, but...

After eating the small piece of moon cake, everyone took their seats and started dinner. Of course, this will not be an easy evening.

Games, viewing the moon, and dinner parties are all three in one.

Of course, the games are just some more artistic ones, such as anagrams, couplets, and solitaire.

By the way, if there is no reward, if you are not alive, you will be fined for drinking.

Osmanthus wine...

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, looking up at Dangui in the middle of the moon, smelling the fragrance of osmanthus, drinking a cup of sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus wine, celebrating the sweetness of the family, it is a great life enjoyment.

"This year's sweet-scented osmanthus wine seems to be a little different, why does it taste better than previous years?" Luo Shangshu recalled the taste carefully.

"Father doesn't know, this wine was sent by Prince Jin for a few years." Luo Rong said.

To talk about the Mid-Autumn Festival's boxing, SLRs are prepared by relatives and friends, but Prince Jin's handwriting is really big, and what he sent is probably worth the sum of everyone else. Because Wang's family is in charge, the gift list was sent directly to Wang's hands, and he happened to see it. It is difficult to try to keep calm. With such a generous gift, how should I return this gift? Mrs. Luo didn't care much, and followed the rules. Oh, in this way, the Luo family has made a profit.

"I see." Luo Peishan nodded, "Sure enough, everything in Prince Jin's hands is a good thing."

Everyone else nodded in agreement, isn't it, so this marriage with Prince Jin is not entirely a bad thing, as always, Prince Jin really cares about their girls as they show, that is the best However.

The child got off the table without eating much, and started to go to the Wandrift lantern in the pool next to it. Compared with the lantern, the fruit lantern is naturally more playable.

Like this, it was almost an hour, the elders continued, and the juniors were about to go out to play.

This is definitely not possible on weekdays, but today there is no curfew, so you can play all night.

The little Douding watched their brothers and sisters go out eagerly. Even if Mrs. Luo relaxed the conditions for going out this year, it would still be stuck at ten years old. The happiest one is probably the twins born in the fourth room. Jing, just in time.

Standing outside the gate, you can see the lights all over the wall in front of every door. Although you can't see it from a distance, the lights seem to illuminate the night sky, just like a world of glass.

There is no large-scale lantern festival like the Lantern Festival in Mid-Autumn Festival, but it also has its own uniqueness.

Almost all households go out at this time, moving forward slowly.

Jingwan also began to look forward to Wata Lamp.
