Rebirth as an official

In the following month, Xu Li's work was really relaxed. Naturally, the investment plan was in the charge of the Tourism Bureau and China Merchants. Xu Li only needed to call every few days to ask Carl, who was far away from the other side, to see where his itinerary was, and by the way, when they could return to Songjiang. Beyond the clouds

Fan Yuhua's unit is on holiday until the 15th day of the first month. They have known each other for such a long time that they finally have the opportunity to get along with each other for a long time. We can say something intimate.

Happy day is always fast, in the twinkling of an eye is the 15th of the first month, the Lantern Festival.

As soon as it was dark, Xu Li had already taken fan Yuhua's little hand and walked on the street of Songjiang city. At this time, the street is already full of people. After dinner, people who come out to see the colored lights and fireworks have poured into the street. The colorful lamps on the roadside compete for novelty, and the unique ice lamp in Northeast China is the most eye-catching, attracting countless people to take photos in front of the lamp.

And the Lantern Festival is not only the first major festival after the Spring Festival, but also the most romantic one in the traditional Chinese festivals. In the traditional feudal society, the Lantern Festival provided an opportunity for unmarried men and women to meet each other. In the traditional society, young girls are not allowed to go out for free activities, but they can go out to play together during the festival. The Lantern Festival is just an opportunity for friendship. Unmarried men and women can also find objects for themselves by the way of the Lantern Festival.

Today, although it is no longer a feudal society, the Lantern Festival is still the best time for young men and women to meet their lovers. On the street, a pair of lovers hold hands and feel the sweetness of love.

Fan Yuhua and Xu Li were a little tired on the street, so they found a big tree beside the river bank and stood quietly under the tree. A bright moon is shining on the earth in the sky. Looking at the endless stream of people on the street, the bright colored lights, the lively Yangko and the dry boat, they are bathed in the bright moonlight. Quietly nestle together, although did not say a word, but two people can clearly hear each other's heartbeat.

After a while, the river side behind them suddenly lit up a little bit of starlight. And more and more stars soon illuminated both sides of the Songjiang River.

Fan Yuhua took Xu Li's hand and said excitedly, "this is lighting a river lantern! How beautiful

As early as in the primitive society, human beings were limited to the understanding of nature. They thought that fire was the source of all things, became the totem of worship, the symbol of auspiciousness and warmth, and the God of conquering cold and hunger. In the Shang Dynasty, when people encountered dangerous reefs and shoals or strong winds and waves in the process of fishing and hunting, they put some sacrifices and lit candles on wooden boards or bamboo fabrics. Then let it drift. It means praying to the God of the sea for peace. Later, after continuous evolution, gradually formed in our country, to put the lantern to sacrifice the dead relatives. In Songjiang, however, the superstition has been eliminated. Just to show joy and joy.

What's more strange is that the DIHE lamp in Songjiang is set off in the severe winter. This is also due to the unique geographical environment of Songjiang, which has such a long section of non freezing river. Every winter in the coldest season, the two sides of the river are covered with thick snow, and the trees are hung with crystal white trellis. On this charming night, colorful River lights float on the river. This magnificent spectacle will never be seen in any place.

Looking at fan Yuhua's happy appearance, Xu Li pulls up fan Yuhua and trots all the way to the riverside along the steps of the riverbank. At this time, both sides of the Songjiang River have been crowded with people who are ready to put river lanterns. They are holding all kinds of river lanterns. Wisdom lamp, safety lamp, longevity lamp, lover lamp... As long as you want to get the blessing, you can find it on the river lamp in people's hands.

Xu Li pulls fan Yuhua through the crowd. Fan Yuhua doesn't know what Xu Li is going to do, so he can only follow Xu Li closely. After running along the river for more than 100 meters, Xu finally stopped. Fan Yuhua looked up. I can't help but see the light in my eyes. Xu Lizheng stopped in front of a big river lamp about one meter in diameter.

At this time, although the river lamp has not been lit, it can be lit by the moonlight in the sky. Fan Yuhua has been deeply attracted by it. This big river lamp is obviously a lover's lamp. Below it is a platform surrounded by nine pink lotus flowers. Above it are two cartoon characters, a man and a woman holding hands tightly. In front of them is a huge heart-shaped candlestick.

Looking at Xu Li and fan Yuhua staring at the river lamp, a elder sister came forward and said with a smile: "you are a couple set by heaven. This river lamp is made for you! Young man, this lamp is for you! I hope you can live a happy life from now on

Xu Li was stunned. He saw this beautiful river lantern from a long distance. When he came near, he saw that fan Yuhua liked it so much that he wanted to buy it. Later, he put it into the river with fan Yuhua to make a good picture. Just when she didn't know how to open her mouth and how much money to give others, she asked to give it to herself.

"No, no, elder sister, that's very interesting. Not to mention your handicrafts, even the materials used to make this lamp cost a lot of money. How can we ask you for it in vain?"

Although fan Yuhua liked it, he said: "that is, elder sister, how can we have such a good river lantern for nothing!"

Xu Li took out his wallet, ordered a few hundred yuan bills, handed them to him and said, "elder sister, do you think this money is enough for your materials?"

The elder sister was a little unhappy when she saw that they had taken out the money and said, "do you look down on me! You see... "He said, pointing to the people with river lanterns around him, and then said," these river lanterns are all made by me, and they are all given to them by me. Do you think I will ask for your money? "

After hearing this, Xu Li said in secret: Fortunately, he didn't say that he wanted to pay for the material, which made the elder sister a little unhappy. At present, Xu Li didn't mention the money any more. He took the money back, took the lamp, and pulled fan Yuhua to say: "elder sister, we don't mention the money, we mention the money custom. Thank you, elder sister. I wish you all the best in the future

The elder sister nodded with a smile, then handed over a small pink card and a pen, and said: "you write your name on it, and then put it on the river lamp, which can bless you all your life and love you to the white head!"
