Chapter 210 Kongming Lantern(1/2)

A lantern that can reach the sky?

Ji Jin knew that this was the condition Ning Wuchang promised to Ning Zhifeng. She thought it was to coax the children. Now that she heard it again, she couldn't help but wonder: "Is there really a lantern that can reach the sky?"

"Yes, it's called Kongming Lantern."

Ning Wuyan glanced at the sky.

If you just focus on practicing archery, if you continue practicing, it will be too late to make a lamp.

I don’t know if I have all the materials ready.

Just thinking about it.

Ning Zhifeng's shout came from not far away: "Fifth brother, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and the bamboo strips you asked for...we have found them all!"

Ning Zhifeng was running in front, and Zhaodi was chasing after him quickly, carrying a basket on his back.

Ning Wuyan glanced at the colored papers of different colors in the basket, and said to Ji Jin who looked surprised: "If Miss Ji changes her favorite colored paper, she can draw her favorite patterns on it and write her prayer wishes.

Then it can rise to the sky, and maybe it will come true."

In his view, the act of praying by setting off lanterns has a strong romantic color and is a unique cultural feature.

As a human being, you should always have some dreams while living.

Realized or not realized, as long as it is there, it is the source of life.

Ji Jin thought of the wishes written in the lanterns she had already made, and the blush on her face deepened. Under Ning Wuyan's gaze, she nodded lightly: "I understand, I'll go back and get colored paper."

After saying that, Ji Jin turned around again and left as fast as flying.

After walking far away, the maid suddenly reacted and reminded her loudly: "Miss, Miss Shen didn't follow."

"I know."

Ji Jin is not a person who forgets his friends when he sees sex, so he naturally knows that there is no one around him.

but.

She did it on purpose.

This kind of lantern that can fly into the sky was probably the first time I saw it in my life.

Although this was her first time celebrating the Qiqiao Festival with Mr. Ning, in order to satisfy her friend's curiosity, she didn't mind letting Youchu join in.

Anyway, in addition to Youchu, there will probably be Miss Ning Wu and the little girl named Zhaodi spending the Qiqiao Festival together.

In this case, why not fulfill her wish to be with Mr. Ning while also having fun with her friends?

"What wish should I write?"

What Ji Jin is most worried about now is this problem.

The original wishes on the lanterns probably cannot be written on colored paper. Since they fly into the sky, they are likely to be seen by others.

She has to think carefully.



In the yard.

Shen Youchu felt itchy as he watched Ning Wuyan take the basket to the martial arts arena and start chopping bamboo strips with a knife.

According to the agreement, Jin'er should be the first to find the account books and celebrate the Qiao Qiao Festival with Mr. Ning.

But she took another look at Ning Zhifeng and Miss Zhaodi who were sitting around Mr. Ning, and felt that Jin'er would not have a chance to be alone with Mr. Ning tonight.

"Mr. Ning, can I make one too?"

Shen Youchu took out a piece of pink colored paper, closed one eye, and looked through the light with the holes.

The world seemed to turn pink in an instant.

It would be so romantic to imagine that there would be pink lanterns flying into the sky carrying her wishes.

She pointed the colored paper at Ning Wuyan, who was splitting bamboo strips, and said in a pleading tone: "Will you take me to play with you?"

"I didn't say I wouldn't take you with me."

Ning Wuhuang finally concentrated on splitting a thick bamboo strip into a dozen thin and tough strips less than three millimeters, and then he could concentrate on talking to Shen Youchu.

Turning around, he saw Shen Youchu playing with colored paper with her head tilted, and he couldn't help but laugh: "I heard that Miss Shen is good at painting."

"Yes, yes."

Shen Youchu immediately took away the colored paper and nodded in response.

In fact, she is not only good at it.

Among the Daxing painters who are more skilled and more inspired than her, they can all be counted on one hand.

"Then you can help Zhifeng and Zhaodi draw some patterns they like, or teach them to draw some."

After Ning Wuyan finished speaking, he continued to chop the ribs with his sword.

If nothing unexpected happens.

After seeing the Kongming Lantern, many people will come to him to make this kind of lantern that can reach the sky.

So he had to prepare the materials in advance to avoid missing everyone's luck and ruining the fun.

If something happens to him, everyone will come to help him.

It is his duty to maintain everyone's interest in having fun.

Everyone is for me, and I am for everyone.

"Juxiang, please go find the steward and ask him to find any wire or copper wire that is finer than these."

After Ning Wuyang brought Shen Youchu into the group, he certainly didn't have to be merciful when he summoned her.

Kongming lanterns are easy to make. You only need to build the outer frame with bamboo strips, and then tie the pieces of paper, string and burning alcohol with iron wire or copper wire.

The wire Ning Zhifeng brought was too thick. Although it could ensure that it would not burn during takeoff, it was too heavy to fly.

He pulled out a piece of wire and gestured at the chrysanthemum that came up to him.

"It's about three thick and thick."

Juxiang frowned.

So fine?

Could such a thin wire exist in an ordinary village?

Not to mention copper wire. Except for Yibei Road where steel is made, it is difficult to find copper wire on the market.

"Master Ning, I might have to go to the city."

Juxiang glanced at the westward sun and couldn't help but worry about whether it would be too late.

At this time, Mei Xiang stepped forward.

"Miss, I'm going to the city to look for iron wire and copper wire, and I promise to be back before the sun sets. Mr. Ning, is that okay?"

Ning Wuyang heard Mei Xiang speak after a long time.

Even Shen Youchu was stunned.

Huh?

Mei Xiang didn't speak, she had forgotten that the person around her who was best at running away was actually Mei Xiang!

"Okay, Mei Xiang, whatever style of lantern you like, I can make it for you."

"Thank you, Miss. Please write it down for me, Miss. My wish is that I can get an increase in monthly silver this month."

Mei Xiang showed a money-obsessed expression.

Her perfume has run out.

I want to buy another bottle of orchid scented perfume.

She also wants to let my mother and sister in the house try some iced drinks in the summer, but she really doesn’t have enough money to spend, wuwuwu...

Shen Youchu didn't expect that Mei Xiang would just stop talking and ask for money as soon as she started talking.

Or ask her for money in front of Mr. Ning.

It seemed as if she had treated Mei Xiang harshly.

But in fact, the moon silver of plum fragrance is ten taels higher than that of chrysanthemum fragrance.

Shen Youchu pointed at his face and showed a kind smile.

"Miss, I am making lanterns for you to pray for blessings, not for you to pray for a tortoise in the wishing well. If you don't want to go, I will ask Juxiang to go. Remember, buy some good iron wire or copper wire. Miss, I am not bad. money."

Shen Youchu took out a banknote from the purse at his waist and stuffed it into Mei Xiang's hand.

"Go ahead, buying three hundred should be enough, right Mr. Ning?"

Enough.

Ning Wuyan nodded, looked at the denomination of the bank note, and silently stopped thinking about subsidizing Mei Xiang's errand fees.
