Chapter 193 New Year (2)
Farm Encouragement Office.
“What are you doing?”
When Yan Lingxi came out of the house, he saw a group of people bustling with excitement.
They walked around holding red paper and bamboo strips with smiles on their faces.
She lives alone in a courtyard and doesn't go out to hang out except for working.
After half a year, except for Wei Ning, there was no one she could talk to. She didn’t like to go to Da Sinong because Da Sinong always told her to meditate, but she couldn’t calm down. He was asking when Da Sinong could ascend the throne.
'It would be great if Wei Ning is here, you can ask what's going on...'
"Sister Lin Xi!"
I just thought of Wei Ning, Wei Ning's round face He appeared at the door, smiled at her and raised his hand.
Yanlingxi blinked and asked: "Wei Ning, what happened outside?"
"Spring Festival!"
"Spring Festival?"
Yanlingxi I am getting more and more confused, what happened to the Spring Festival, it is not the first time.
"Sister Lin Xi is too withdrawn. Don't you know that Mr. Chen said that he would hold a big Spring Festival, and then the whole agricultural promotion office became busy, come."
Wei Ning came in with big and small bags.
"Don't make my yard dirty..."
"I'll clean it for you!"
Wei Ning ignored Lin Xi's complaint.
She always felt that Lin Xi was a very good person, but a bit lonely.
As for being cold towards people.
Think about it, I have lived alone with my grandfather in the mountains for so long. What’s wrong with being autistic? I just have a cold face and a hot heart, and I have a sharp mouth and a heartless heart!
The veins on Yan Lingxi's forehead were pulsing. Wei Ning, who was familiar with her, pulled her to sit on the stone pier.
‘How decent’, ‘untouchable’, ‘lawless’, ‘unbridled’
The contact between the noble ass and the rough stone made her almost crazy.
There were countless scoldings coming out of my heart.
But he could only hold it in his mouth and suppress it forcefully.
She told herself repeatedly.
Now I am not the princess of the Divine Dynasty, but just a farmer at the Farming Office.
She has to be patient until she turns the farmhouse into her own.
Take a deep breath.
‘On the day when I succeed, I will come back to ask you about your sins! ’
Yanling River, forbearance!
Wei Ning was completely unaware and said: "Sister Lin Xi, I will also help you make your lanterns."
"Well... why should we do this? Tell us about the Spring Festival. What’s going on?”
"I don't know. It should be similar to the Spring Plowing Festival, right? But this is something Master Chen told me, so it must be different!"
"Why?"
"...Hmm."
After talking for a long time, Wei Ning couldn't come up with a reason, so he summed it up: "Master Chen must have his reasons. Let's just do it. Look at this lantern painted with red paper, how beautiful it is!"< br>
“Only use red paper lanterns for newlyweds.”
"Yes, no wonder it looks festive. Mr. Chen said that every street should be hung with red lanterns, and every household should have red paper couplets posted."
"What are couplets?"
"Here."
Wei Ning pulled out a pamphlet and handed it over: "I remember Sister Lin Xi's calligraphy is very beautiful. I would like to trouble you to write a couplet for us this time. These are all from Mr. Chen Written!”
“Oh?”
Open the booklet.
Yan Lingxi read: "The first couplet: Everything goes smoothly and every year is good; the second couplet: Everything goes well and every step of the way; the horizontal batch: the auspicious star shines high... The first couplet: Money rolls in with the arrival of spring; the second couplet: Joy and blessing come, horizontal batch : Prosperity of wealth.”
Read the last two sentences.
She rolled her eyes.
“The vulgarity of Mr. Chen’s rhetoric is unbearable.”
"Eh? But I think it's really festive."
"Haha."
Yan Lingxi twitched the corner of his mouth, his eyes helpless.
When I think of using my noble hands to copy these vulgar words, I can't help but feel sad.
“I like this, please use the most beautiful words to write this couple.”
Wei Ning took her hand and pointed to one of the sections.
Yan Lingxi looked down.
"The first couplet: Intensive farming and a bumper harvest, the second couplet: I have been diligent and thrifty for more than a decade, and the horizontal line: The country is peaceful and the people are safe."
Suddenly.
The expression on her face became a little unnatural.
Looking at the four characters "Guotai Minan" in the couplet, I felt a vague tingling feeling in my heart.
Work hard, be diligent and thrifty...
This is all the people need to live in peace and prosperity?
But... "Sister Lin Xi, what's wrong with you?"
"...I'm fine."
Yan Lingxi shook her head and turned to the next page.
The weather is good.
Peace and happiness.
The flowers are full and the moon is full.
'What should I call the couplet? Let's call it the Complete Collection of Auspicious Words...'
But for some reason, when I looked at this simple, crude and tacky couplet, a lot of the resistance in my heart dissipated.
Yan Lingxi took out his pen and ink and began to copy couplets on the cut red paper.
Beside her, Wei Ning weaved bamboo strips into exquisite lanterns and pasted them with red paper with the word "spring" written on them.
Writing two couplets is very fast.
Later, he and Wei Ning made lanterns together.
There are many styles of large lanterns, small lanterns and string lanterns. After they are made, they can be hung directly under the eaves, in front of the door lintel and other places.
Later.
Stand in front of the courtyard gate and paste the couplets on them.
First couplet: When winter comes, the mountains and rivers become beautiful.
Second line: Xilai peach is fragrant together.
Hengpi: Good luck in the new year.
After all, she still didn’t want to make it too vulgar, so the couplet she prepared for herself was more refined.
“Okay!”
Wei Ning wiped his forehead and looked at this scene with great satisfaction.
"Those who don't know, thought I was married."
"Sister Lin Xi will look better than this when she gets married!"
"I'm not getting married."
Yan Lingxi didn't want to continue on this topic, so she turned and walked away.
Suddenly.
The idea of going out for a walk came to mind.
Just leave the yard.
The streets around the Farmers’ Office have completely changed.
The streets have been sprinkled with water and cleaned and look brand new.
On both sides of the road, tall bamboo poles and a continuous stream of red lanterns sway gently in the breeze, like little flames, shining with warm light in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The big tree in the distance was covered with colorful ribbons and also hung with red lanterns.
In front of every house, there are two bunches and one horizontal couplet with auspicious words in different handwritings, carrying New Year's blessings.
Children are chasing and playing in the streets, and the laughter and laughter are intertwined with the busyness of adults. The old people are sitting on the threshold, looking at all this, with smiles on their faces.
"Spring Festival...is it like this?"
Walking in Yanling River, some kind of power in the blood was stimulated.
Her mind was dazed for a moment.
Vaguely, many pictures flashed through my mind.
In the distant sky, a huge divine dragon soars into the clouds and rides on the mist, hovering in the sky.
The sun and moon are skillfully held in its mouth, emitting a soft radiance.
Looking closely, its body is intertwined with thousands of splendid palaces and winding streets.
The buildings transformed from scales are staggered in height, with carved beams and painted beams, and the streets paved with gaps between the scales are bustling with traffic and pedestrians.
The world is full of different things, prosperity and silence alternate, and the vicissitudes of time are fully displayed.
When she came to her senses.
Has returned to his courtyard.
Da Sinong was still holding a couplet in his hand and looked at her with relief.
"Da Sinong? I just seemed to see Taizu and the divine dynasty at that time."
"Chen Jing Avenue has begun to take shape, and it has already condensed the people's destiny. As a descendant of Taizu, you , can naturally control the people's heart, be nourished by this luck, and restore some bloodline power."
Da Sinong explained.
“I also awakened a magical power.”
Yan Lingxi raised his arm, dragon scales appeared faintly on the back of his hand, and his eyes turned into golden vertical pupils, carrying some kind of superior pressure. .
Just when she was about to give it a try.
Da Sinong immediately pointed out and suppressed her bloodline.
"Once the aura of the true dragon's bloodline is leaked, this place will be barren of vegetation. Do not use it until you can control the power of awakening."
"Hmph."
Yan Lingxi suddenly felt aggrieved, "How can I control this power?"
"..."
But Da Sinong shook his head and said that he would know when the time comes.
He felt that it was better not to tell the princess. Whether she could control her own power depended on how high Chen Jing could reach.
