Wishing You Eternal Happiness Chapter 974: :Lifelong wish
" The method of "delivering food by water" is to wrap the food in reed leaves, put it in a wooden barrel, use wood cuttings to ride on the water, and send the food down the river to the people who control the water. Some food on the way is picked up by the fish in the water. Later, this method spread among the people, and various places rushed to imitate it. Until now, people in Shanxi still use rice dumplings to worship Fen God Tai Ni. = There is also Tai Ni Mountain in Taiyuan, Shanxi."
Tai Ni's flood control was earlier than Dayu's flood control.
However, Dayu controlled the Yellow River, so his reputation was greater than that of Taiyi.
Yu Youyao's mind moved slightly: "The custom of throwing rice dumplings is not only to remember Qu Yuan, to pay homage to the deceased relatives, to pray for safety, to trace the roots, but also to drink water and remember the source, to express gratitude and worship to the ancestors, and to show awe of nature."
Unconsciously, the sky is getting dark.
People who don’t throw rice dumplings will spend a penny to buy a lantern, light it, sprinkle a few grains of rice on it, and put it into the river, and the lantern will flow down the river.
Some people closed their eyes and made a wish in front of the lantern.
Some people were in tears, watching the lanterns go away.
There are also people who are talking to the lanterns, words that only they can hear.
……
There are more and more lanterns on the river.
When it gets dark, the river is covered with lanterns, and the candlelight is like a strip of light flowing down the river, as beautiful as a dream.
Yu Youyao was amazed: "It's so beautiful!"
There are no regulations on the Dragon Boat Festival, and river lanterns cannot be put out. Many disaster victims have poured into the northern border. The victims have experienced the tragic loss of their families. They have no food to throw around to pay homage to their deceased relatives, so they can only use a river lantern to express their sustenance. Deep remembrance of the deceased loved ones.
Yu Youyao became interested: "Let's go put out river lanterns too!"
"Okay!" Yin Huaixi tilted his head to look at her.
The gray sky swallowed up the last ray of rays of light on the horizon, and darkness fell quietly. At some point, dim yellow lanterns were hung on the campsites around the river bank. Under the dim candlelight, the little girl’s delicate face, It's like being coated with a hazy halo, warm and beautiful.
Yin Huaixi reached out and held her hand.
Yu Youyao stopped and looked down. Her long and wide sleeves blocked the hands held together, and she moved her fingers.
Yin Huaixi thought that his grip was too tight, so he couldn't help but loosen his palm. Then, one by one, tender fingers were inserted into the gaps between his fingers, and they tapped with his fingers.
"Fiancé," Yu Youyao smiled with crooked eyebrows, her eyes reflected the dim yellow candlelight, bright and warm: "There are too many people on the river bank, hold on tight, and we won't get separated!"
Yin Huaixi curled his lips and smiled, his brows filled with warmth: "Okay!"
The two held hands and came to a stall. In addition to buying various lanterns, there were also some materials for tying lanterns. Yin Huaixi asked for two.
"Do you know how to tie lanterns?" After saying this, Yu Youyao thought of how when Yin Huaixi went to Shandong to quell the rebellion, before the Mid-Autumn Festival, he sent Yin San to give her a lantern tied by his own hands. She liked it very much, so she Place a lantern on the bedside lampstand and fall asleep bathed in the dim shadow of the light every night.
Later, she traveled all the way from Jingzhao to Quanzhou and then to Xiangping City, and this lamp accompanied her all the way.
Yin Huaixi can even tie such a difficult lantern.
Small lanterns can’t stop him.
"Learned from Uncle Chang Ning." Speaking of Uncle Chang Ning, Yin Huaixi unconsciously remembered that when he went to Shandong to suppress the rebellion, he was fooled by Uncle Chang Ning and learned the skill of lantern-tying that "can win a wife". The girl you "love".
At that time, he was ignorant. Because he regretted that he could not spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with her, he wanted to put up a lantern with his own hands to please the little girl, but he never expected to be taught by Chang Ningbo to teach him how to be a good person.
——The girl you like must be in your hands!
Thinking of this, Yin Huaixi tilted his head. The little girl looked at him with bright eyes and a look of expectation: "Uncle Chang Ning relied on his skill of making lanterns to make a wife for the girl he liked. According to Uncle Chang Ning, He said that his family’s ancestral craft of lantern-making could help him get a wife, so I learned it.”
"Bah," Yu Youyao blushed: "Who cares about you, a broken lantern."
Yin Huaixi smiled "haha" and quickly put up a lantern.
Yu Youyao, who kept saying that she was not interested, expressed a strong interest in making lanterns. She watched them without blinking and couldn't help but ask questions.
Yin Huaixi took another piece of material and taught her step by step.
The materials were all processed and it was very simple to tie them up. Yu Youyao got a lantern without much effort. Although it was a bit ugly, it was a successful lantern.
In the end, this ugly lantern was naturally replaced by a beautiful lantern tied with Yin Huai's seal.
Yu Youyao held the lantern and couldn't put it down: "Besides the lantern, what else can you tie?"
Yin Huaixi thought for a while: "I will tie a kite for you another day."
Kites are also the most common thing to play in the daughter's home. They can fly them in a relatively open place in the house, and Yu Youyao likes them very much.
Yu Youyao was very happy: "I want one that looks like an eagle."
Yin Huaixi responded with all his heart.
Yu Youyao happily held the lantern, found a place upstream where there were few people, squatted by the river, and carefully put the lantern into the river.
The lanterns drifted slowly down the river. Yu Youyao quickly closed her eyes and began to pray.
First, I remembered my deceased mother and grandmother in my heart.
Then, he started making wishes again.
She has never had any big ambitions, and what she does is always what she can do and do well at this stage. The same goes for making wishes, which is nothing more than praying for the safety of her relatives and Yin Huaixi.
Yin Huaixi also put the lantern into the river~IndoMTL.com~ and turned his head to look at the little girl beside him, who put his hands together and closed his eyes to make a wish.
The dancing candlelight reflected on her body, seeming to cast a sacred and hazy veil over her, as bright and mysterious as the moonlight goddess.
At this time, Yu Youyao fluttered her long eyelashes and opened her eyes. Her bright black eyes seemed to be filled with bright light, illuminating the entire world of Yin Huaixi.
"Yin Huaixi, tell me quickly, what wish did you make just now?" Her voice was as sweet as a warbler's.
Yin Huaixi shook his head: "I didn't make a wish."
"You didn't make a wish?" Yu Youyao's eyes widened and she repeated in disbelief: "If you don't make a wish, why are you putting out lanterns?! You can't be lying to me because you don't want to tell me!"
She looked at Yin Huaixi with some suspicion.
"I don't need to make a wish," Yin Huaixi looked at her steadily, with the lanterns not far away reflected in his eyes, as if a cluster of candles were burning, with a burning warmth: "I have already obtained what I have wanted in my whole life. ."
