Chapter 1346 Lantern Festival

After a while, Han Xiaoxiao ate another coin, and Liu Xu also ate one. Han Feng said enviously that they were so lucky.

The Korean peacock ate two peacocks in a row, but the remaining two peacocks have not yet appeared. Now that the number is small, it is not easy to eat, so it all depends on luck.

Han Feng himself wanted to eat a coin, but he had already played for a long time today and still didn't see a coin.

Looking at the last three dumplings in the bowl, I really couldn’t eat them anymore.

Han Feng lay on his back on the kang, patted his swollen belly and said, "I won't eat, I won't eat, I'm exhausted. It seems I'm out of luck."

The tone was rather regretful, but one could also hear a sour taste in it. This kind of luck is really unpredictable sometimes.

The expressions on the other people's faces were a little strange. They had basically finished eating the dumplings, and there were still two coins that had not been revealed. There were only three dumplings left that Han Feng couldn't eat. So I won't tell you where the two coins are hidden.

And it’s a metaphor.

What's ironic is that Han Feng was so eager to get a cup of coins that she stopped eating the last three.

Han Peacock held back his laughter and asked, "Are you sure you don't want to eat it?"

Seeing a few people with strange expressions on their faces, they sat up and looked at everyone's empty bowls. Han Feng suddenly came to his senses.

He got up at once, walked quickly to the bowl, and used chopsticks to poke open the three remaining dumplings one by one. Sure enough, there were two coins.

Han Feng was so happy that he didn't care about hygiene. He pinched out two coins with his fingers, raised them in front of everyone and said proudly: "Look, there are still two coins. I am also a very lucky person."

Everyone looked at the child who was as proud as a peacock and felt funny. They wondered who had left the three dumplings untouched just now.

However, as the son of Han Kongque, who dares to say that he is not lucky?

After eating, the old man called a few people together to prepare for giving out lucky money.

Han Xiaoxiao wore a brand new dress today and dressed up like a little princess. In fact, in Han Peacock's house, she was indeed a little princess.

It’s the Chinese New Year when a child is born. No matter how poor or miserable the parents are, they will think of making new clothes for their children.

The old man gave Han Xiao a new one hundred yuan note as lucky money. Children always like to get lucky money from their elders during the New Year, so as to feel the joy of having big money in their hands that they usually don't enjoy.

Han Xiaoxiao was the youngest in the family besides Han Huang and Han Ping, and received the most New Year's money. Basically everyone gave her a share, except Liuxu, who saw that Han Kongque had given it to her, so she didn't give any more.

They are one body. One person represents two people.

Several girls have been wearing brand-new clothes for a few days, and even Han Peacock symbolically put on custom-made new clothes and newly bought shoes.

The old man also gave each of Liu Xu and the others a share of the new year's money. The amount of money was small and the same as Han Xiaoxiao's. Even the Han Peacock brothers also received a share each.

Although they are adults, they are still children in the eyes of the old man, and there are no others like Han Father and Han Mu.

Han Xiaoxiao was a sensible child, so she put most of the money into Liuxu's hand and asked her mother to keep it. She only put five or six yuan in her pocket and went out to play with the children.

However, five or six yuan is already considered a good sum of money for children of this age in rural areas.

Seeing Meiren Zhou staring at him, Han Feng hurriedly said: "I won't spend it randomly. I will keep the New Year's money on my card myself."

Liu Xu said with a smile: "By the way, we Xiaoxiao also want to apply for a card, and we will save all the new year's money ourselves."

"Yes! A little beauty can't live without her own little treasury." Han Peacock said with a smile.

When he said this, the whole family laughed.

The custom here of Han Kongque is not to go out on the first day of the Lunar New Year and celebrate the New Year at home. Only on the second day of the Lunar New Year do they start to pay New Year greetings and entertain guests.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Han Kongque and his family did not go out. They had the most sumptuous lunch of the year at home.

The South is different from the North. In the South, the most sumptuous meal may be held in the evening, while in the North, the most sumptuous meal is often held at noon, and only some easy-to-digest and filling foods are eaten at night.

The next day, starting from early in the morning, villagers began to come to Han Kongque's house carrying gifts to wish the old man new year.

There are not just one or two people who have been taken care of by the Han family in the past two years. Han Kongque is not often at home. In fact, the old man does everything at home, and many of them are also ordered by the old man.

As for Han Jianguo, he was born with a small family spirit, not even as grand as Han Mu, so as time went by, everyone knew about it and would not come to him if something happened.

Han Kongque's family never expected that so many people would come to pay New Year's greetings. They did not prepare meals for the guests in advance. Those who happened to come to pay New Year's greetings and give gifts just left the gifts and left without even staying here to eat.

plan.

Fortunately, Han Peacock prepared some gifts before the Chinese New Year, and now they are used as gifts in return.

However, it was obvious that his preparations were not sufficient, but these people came without too much trouble. In the end, Han Peacock brought out a lot of fresh fruits and some seafood, which were paired with ordinary dried fruits, peanuts, melon seeds and other things.

Returned the gift.

There were a lot of people coming to pay New Year's greetings today, so they tried to be as simple as possible. Many people left before Han Kongque came up with a return gift.

Han Peacock saw this attitude, so he didn't care. These are from the villagers. It would be bad not to accept the gift. Anyway, it will take a long time, and Han Peacock cannot forget the additional construction. He will take care of it when the time comes.

Enough.

After figuring it out, Han Peacock began to accept all the gifts. When he felt free, he would sit down and have a cup of tea with the old man. When he felt free, he would just leave.

And he himself did not stay in the house, but took the gifts he had prepared long ago and went to pay New Year's greetings to the village chief's house, which was hosting guests on the second day of the Lunar New Year.

I wanted to be like those people who went to their homes to pay New Year greetings, put away the gifts and leave, but the village chief refused to let me go and insisted on staying for a meal before leaving.

On the third day of junior high school, Lao Li's family entertained guests. When he was a child, the old house of Han Kongque's family was a neighbor of Li Xiaoyi's family, so he received a lot of care from the Li family. Today they were entertaining guests, so Han Kongque had to go.

In addition, Li Xiaoyi is now regarded as an important helper of Han Kongque, so early in the morning, Han Kongque came to visit with a gift to pay New Year greetings, and was left to have a meal before letting him go.

The atmosphere of the New Year disappears in the process of eating and drinking. Until the arrival of the 15th day, Lantern Festival Lantern Festival is generally held everywhere.

The lantern festival in Han Kongque's town is very famous within a radius of dozens of kilometers. Not only people from nearby villages and towns come, but also many people from the city drive over to watch the rare lantern festival.

There is no space in the parking lot, and the open space next to the road has been turned into parking spaces, which shows that there are so many people coming.

The main street where the Lantern Festival was held was packed with people, almost as many as at the twelfth lunar month fair.

There are vendors on both sides of the street, and all kinds of lights are hung on the stands.

There are traditional red paper lanterns, embroidered red lanterns made of silk, and all kinds of strange animal-shaped lanterns.

Some of them have large candles inserted, some are designed to be hung in front of the door, with a place for light bulbs inside, and some are specially sold for children to play with, with small colorful light bulbs inside, driven by batteries, and even

Play simple music.

Han Peacock saw that it was fun, so he planned to buy one for his children. The children played with small lanterns that used batteries to provide energy and also had music.

In addition to these small lanterns for children to play with, I also want to buy a pair of big red silk lanterns to hang on the door. When I go back and hang them on the door, it will look very festive when viewed from a distance.

There are also lanterns made of bamboo strips, hung in a string on a bamboo pole, and they are pretty swaying.

Sold together with this kind of lantern are bundles of fine hemp flowers that are fried to a golden crisp, and a small wax monkey, which is a small awl-shaped candle that is placed in the lantern for lighting.

I don’t know how it is in cities, but in rural areas, starting from the sixth and seventh day of the lunar month, there are children hanging around the village holding lanterns.

At night, a group of people come out on the streets of the village. Each one holds a lantern in his hand and a few small firecrackers. They play while setting off firecrackers. A group of children can wander around for half the night. This kind of activity lasts until ten

School will not end until the lights are scattered on the fifth night.

When the lights are scattered on the 15th night, a candle will be inserted in each corner of the yard to illuminate the yard brightly to drive away the darkness and filth in the yard and make it bright and clean in the new year.

Moreover, on this night, all the lanterns carried by the children must be burned. After the lights are scattered, no more lanterns can appear. Of course, the big red silk lanterns with light bulbs hanging inside are another matter.

Han Kongque didn't have many relatives at home, so he didn't need to send lanterns to anyone. He planned to buy a few to give to his children to play with.

A group of people turned around and watched. In fact, in a place like this, people just want to see the excitement and novelty.

When I came to a stall selling small battery-powered lanterns, I saw that the hanging lanterns were very beautiful, and Han Peacock wanted to buy them.

"Boss, how much does this lantern cost?" Han Peacock first picked up a lantern with the zodiac sign "Wei Sheep" in the Chinese zodiac and asked the boss.

The boss looked at the lantern in Han Kongque's hand and said enthusiastically: "This is the year of this year's birth year. It is a little more expensive than the others, costing thirty yuan each."

There are many such lanterns, and Han Peacock really didn’t expect such gadgets to be so expensive.

Looking at these lanterns, there are some that look like happy and beautiful sheep, and there are also some chubby sheep that look like poodles. They all look cute.

Han Peacock picked up a lantern that looked like a lion and asked: "How much does this cost?" (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
