In the previous life, Chaoli liked the Albizia Julibrissinus. It was not his intention. It was because of Gu Hanzhang that he loved the house and the crow.
In fact, Chaoli's favorite is the mandala flower.
Although folk rumors said that this flower was not very good and even poisonous, she found it very intoxicating.
Fortunately, those who know a little bit about Buddhism will know that the mandala is called the spiritual and holy object of Buddhism. According to legend, only the lucky ones have the opportunity to see it, and seeing it can bring endless happiness to people.
Because what Buddhism cultivates is to observe the world with a pure mind, have few desires and walk in the mortal world, have nothing in your hands, and everything is empty.
Therefore, a long time ago, this stamenless white flower was regarded as the incarnation of God, symbolizing emptiness, carelessness and peace of mind.
Of course, this is a mandala beautified by Buddhism. In fact, it is not so exaggerated.
However, Chaoli feels that it is better to view mandala from a Buddhist standpoint than from a folk perspective.
"Yes, Ah Li, let's go for a walk and see what kind of lanterns you want. After we get the lanterns, let's buy some river lanterns, put them by the long river, and make three wishes."
Song Lingxin's face was full of excitement.
Song Lingxin was very happy that she didn't have to go back home so early today.
What's more, you can also play with Chaoli.
"Okay, I'll accompany you today." Chaoli smiled gently.
In her previous life, when she came to see the lanterns, only Qing Yi was by her side. Qing Yi always felt that she had to worry about her status as master and servant outside, so she couldn't let go.
Today is a good day, with Song Lingxin's maid accompanying her, Qing Yi can feel much more at ease.
"To be honest, we go out together every year for the Lantern Festival. I hope we can still be together for the next Lantern Festival. But now that you are married, I also want to discuss marriage. I don't know if I will have the chance in the future." Song Lingxin
Somewhat uncomfortable.
Chaoli smiled slightly, "Of course it's okay. Regardless of whether we are married or not, we can all watch the lanterns together. Let's go to the busiest house. I guess that house must be my favorite."
As we all know, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is both the Lantern Festival and the Lantern Festival.
Generally, high-ranking officials and their families in the capital go to the palace banquet at noon, and they still come to participate in the Lantern Festival at night, so there are very many people.
The streets are decorated with traditional lanterns and become a sea of lights. Visitors can experience the fun of the Lantern Festival through lantern viewing, guessing puzzles, and playing with lanterns.
The largest lantern vendor is in the center of the city.
However, because the venue is the largest, there are many lanterns and it is also the most lively.
This family's lanterns are hung in more than a dozen rows, and there are all kinds of lanterns. They are dazzling. The single lantern is bright and colorful, which is even more dazzling.
Several people came to the center of the street, and the scenes from the past life appeared in front of Chaoli's eyes, and finally they overlapped again.
Only this time, she is no longer alone.
After arriving, Song Lingxin was immediately attracted by the lanterns that filled her eyes, and she was very excited.
"Ah Li, look, there are peonies, peonies, crabapples, and orchids here. I really like them." Song Lingxin dragged Chao Li forward.
The lanterns here are hung on three walls made of iron wires. There is a stall in front of it, which is filled with small wooden signs on which are the lantern riddles to be guessed.
Only if you guess the correct answer can the lantern be taken away.
But the truth is not that simple. There is also a requirement for guessing lantern riddles.
You can guess a lantern riddle for three cents, and the correct lantern riddles can be stacked.
If you guess five correctly, you can get a lantern on the left wire wall, if you guess ten correctly, you can get a lantern on the right wall, and if you guess fifteen correctly, you can get a lantern on the middle wall.
As for the three lanterns in the middle, you need to guess twenty correct answers to get them.
The mandala lantern that Chaoli was interested in was one of the three chief lanterns.
In her previous life, Chaoli accidentally sprained her foot, so she went to the hospital and was delayed. When she came back, the lantern had disappeared.
Disappointed, she bought a river lantern and put it by the river. Unexpectedly, she saw Gu Hanzhang and Shen Lianyi together.
In Shen Lianyi's hand was the mandala lantern.
Later, someone mentioned that the lantern in Shen Lianyi's hand was won by Gu Hanzhang for her. At that time, Chaoli felt very uncomfortable, but he still pretended that nothing happened and silently suppressed the bitterness in his heart.
Now that she thinks about it carefully, Chao Li chuckles, she is really an idiot.
"Ling Xin, see which one you like, or I'll fight for you." Chaoli said with a smile.
Hearing this, Song Ling's face showed joy.
"Then I'm welcome. I want the wisteria lantern, but I have to guess the fifteen lantern riddles correctly. Ah Li just has to try his best. But I believe that Ah Li will succeed. In this way, Qing Yi and Zi Yuan Both of them can also get lanterns." Song Lingxin said with a smile.
There was nothing she could do. She was not good at lantern riddles and had almost never guessed it. Chaoli won the lantern for her every year. She just said she was fighting for Chaoli, but she just planned to spend money to buy it.
The lanterns could not be kept for long, but Song Lingxin still took good care of the lanterns sent to Chaoli.
Even if it was somewhat damaged, she was reluctant to throw it away.
"Okay, Qingyi goes over to pay and I'll guess." Chaoli agreed with a smile.
After paying the money, Chaoli took Song Lingxin and the two maids to the wooden sign stall with lantern riddles.
The boss looked honest and honest, with a smile on his face.
"Madam, Miss, tell me if you've guessed it right away. The answer is behind the wooden sign. You can give me your answer. If you turn it over, you'll know whether your guess is right or not." The boss explained.
Because Chaoli is a woman's bun, and Song Lingxin is a girl's bun, that's why he called them both.
"Okay, okay, we all know that this is not the first time we have come to the Lantern Festival." Song Lingxin waved her hand.
Chao Li chuckled and glanced at the wooden sign on the table.
One of the wooden signs said: Pray for peace during the Lantern Festival (type one word).
Just after thinking for a moment, Chaoli got the answer to the mystery.
Song Ling was overjoyed, "Ali, have you just come out?"
"Ning"
When the boss heard this, he turned over the wooden sign, and as expected, it was the word "Ning".
"The little madam is really amazing."
Of course, as a polite saying, as long as someone guesses a word, the boss will praise it.
The boss still believes in his own lanterns, and it is still difficult to guess twenty.
Even if you guess it, it doesn't matter, you won't lose money anyway.
Chaoli smiled and looked at another wooden sign: The moon is clearly reflected on the high platform, (type one word).
"Tan."
The boss picked it up and saw that it was indeed the word "昙".
"Keep going." Song Lingxin geared up and looked at the wooden sign Chaoli was looking at, "People will come after the Lantern Festival, (type one word), Ali, what is this?"
