Carefully put away the magnifying glass that 'has special significance', and Li Mingyue picked up the brass cylinder that was a few feet long.

"It's a kaleidoscope." Zhao Hao pointed to one end of the yellow cylinder and motioned for Li Mingyue to bring her eyes together.

Then he gently turned the cylinder, and the colorful foil placed in it changed with the angles of the three mirrors, constantly changing and overlapping, forming all kinds of wonderful geometric patterns.

"Wow......" Li Mingyue had naturally never seen this kind of scene, and she was deeply attracted at once. These patterns are so wonderful that they don't have to be the same. ”

"That's nature, once a pattern is gone. You have to turn for hundreds of years for the same combination to appear, so every moment is worth appreciating and cherishing......"

Zhao Hao remembered a passage he had read before, so he said casually.

Listening to his poetic words and looking at the beautiful patterns in the kaleidoscope, Li Mingyue's heart was full.

"What are you doing?!" At this time, Li Chengen opened the curtain and came in, and saw his sister and Zhao Hao, leaning together in a rather ambiguous posture, and he shouted loudly.

"Brother......" Li Mingyue turned her head with a smile and gave Li Chengen a look that was enough to make him depressed.

Li Chengen couldn't help but change his words: "Good job." ”

Zhao Hao handed another brass cylinder to Li Chengen and said, "This is for you." ”

"Is that also a kaleidoscope?" Li Mingyue asked with big eyes.

"That's called a telescope." Zhao Hao smiled: "It can make people see things in the distance." ”

"Really?" When Li Chengen heard this, he didn't care about investigating what the two of them were doing, so he quickly raised his binoculars and looked around. "It's black, I can't see anything clearly."

"You have to look at it in an open place, don't you like the outdoors, and you have the opportunity to use it." Zhao Hao said with a smile.

"yes, let's go, go out and have a look." Li Chengen was overjoyed when he saw the hunt, and he was about to go out with the telescope.

"Brother......" was stopped by Li Mingyue and said, "Have you forgotten something?" ”

"What's the matter?" Li Chengen was stunned. "I'm done, huh?"

"Didn't you say that Brother Zhao came to the capital for the first time, and he was alone in the New Year alone?" Li Mingyue turned her head and blinked at Li Chengen.

"Ah, did I say that?" The second monk Li Chengen was puzzled, but when he saw that the threat in his sister's eyes was substantial, he couldn't help but feel numb and said: "I really said it, look at my memory." ”

"yes." Li Mingyue turned to Zhao Hao with a smile on her face and said, "So my brother plans to invite Brother Zhao to visit the temple fair during the New Year." ”

"Right, brother?" Li Mingyue turned her head again and stared at Li Chengen without a moment.

"yes, not really." What else can Li Chengen do, he smiled and said: "The temple fair in Beijing City is fun, and there are still lights after the ninth day of the new year." I'll take you to visit the ...... after the New Year."

"Uh, okay." Zhao Hao nodded and responded.

~~

Twenty-six stewed meat, twenty-seven slaughtered chicken, twenty-eight handfuls of noodles, twenty-nine, steamed steamed buns.

The closer we get to the root of the year, the stronger the flavor of the new year in Beijing becomes.

On the morning of Chinese New Year's Eve, crackling sounds of war sounded everywhere in Beijing, that is, the boys were afraid that their fathers and mothers would not be angry on this day, and they couldn't wait to put down the whip.

Zhao Hao also wanted to let go of the whip, but his disciples were all past this age, and those who became masters had no choice but to respect their own identity and not do that kind of price-dropping thing.

But if he doesn't let go of the whip, his house is also very lively.

Today, whether it is a student or an escort, they are all on holiday for the New Year!

The students set up pen and ink, as well as the big red paper sprinkled with gold, and asked the master and the ancestor to write blessing characters.

Zhao Hao's handwriting is stronger than Zhao Shizhen, so he naturally doesn't want to be ugly, so he said that his father is there, and it is not his turn to write.

Zhao Shouzheng did not hesitate to splash ink, and wrote eighteen different fonts of Fu characters in a row, which attracted the applause of the disciples and grandchildren.

Putting down the brush, the father moved his wrist and smiled proudly at his son: "When I was in trouble, my father originally planned to sell words to support you, but unfortunately it was useless." ”

Zhao Hao smiled and nodded, at that time, who would have thought that this year would be the end of this kind of happy house of children and grandchildren?

The experience of life is really bloody.

The disciples finished writing the Spring Festival couplets with you and me, and then took Zhao Shizhen and Zhao Shixi out to post them with laughter.

As soon as the blessing characters and Spring Festival couplets on the gate were pasted, I saw Wang Xijue get out of the carriage.

"Why are you here?" When Wang Dingjue saw his brother, his smile froze.

"The mountain is not just me and I am the mountain, and you can't drive my brother away for the New Year, right?" Wang Xijue smiled and said, "How pitiful is it to flash me at home alone?" ”

After a pause, he made a trick again, took out a pair of sleeves, and an apron embroidered with a few green bamboos and said: "Tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, I can't cook it myself?" ”

Everyone also advised Wang Dingjue not to be angry until next year. Only then did he say in a sullen voice: "I want to eat Shuangfeng chicken." ”

"Yes, of course, can my brother forget which bite you like to eat?" Wang Xijue's bones were three pounds lighter with joy, and he beckoned to the subordinates in the carriage behind: "Hurry up and move everything in, be careful of the soup spilled." ”

As a cultured, tasteful, and aspiring chef, he goes to other people's homes to cook, and he will bring his full set of things and the ingredients he needs.

In this way, every dish you cook can be kept at a consistently high level.

~~

In the afternoon, the whole family talked and laughed, and finished wrapping the strange-shaped dumplings.

Then in the evening, Zhao Hao and his son took Zhao Shizhen and Zhao Shixi brothers to the main room of the East Courtyard.

On the wall there, there are portraits of black-faced Taizu and Zhao Dezhao's father and son.

The three generations of the ancestors of the Zhao family have respectfully supported their ancestors, especially Zhao Shouzheng, who has never been so pious in his life.

It's just that when I kowtow, I inevitably have broken thoughts in my heart, grandpa Taizu will love me again, and Chunyu will show his spirit again......

Zhao Shizhen also silently made a wish to his ancestors, hoping that I would be promoted as soon as possible, so that I could learn to make guns and steam engines from my uncle......

Zhao Shixi may have made a trivial wish - I hope that the ancestors will bless and spend the 1,000 taels of silver in the second year of Longqing.

Even Zhao Hao, who keeps saying 'I love science' all day long, can't help but make his own wish.

With the blessing of my ancestors, I can grow three to four inches next year...... I'm talking about height.

~~

When the offerings were finished, I returned to the west courtyard, and it was getting dark.

The sound of firecrackers everywhere in the capital has been dense and can't stop.

Colorful fireworks take off one after another, decorating the blue-black night sky with an extraordinarily enchanting appearance.

Zhao Hao's family naturally bought a lot of fireworks, and when he saw the four of them coming back, Hua Shuyang couldn't wait to greet Zhao Shizhen and Zhao Shixi to come and put them together.

The first thing they lit was something like a conscienceless cannon, looking at the muzzle of the cannon erected towards the sky, Zhao Hao couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Where did you buy such a horrible thing?" Zhao Hao felt that this thing could be used as a cannon.

"My uncle is making fireworks, I went to him to make this one, and this one is for my uncle." Zhao Shizhen is usually emotionally restrained, but at this moment he finally burst into tears and said: "You have made me have a home again." ”

"Let's put it away." Zhao Shouzheng couldn't see others crying the most, and his eyes immediately turned red.

"Hey, good!"

When the lead burned out, only to hear a muffled sound on the ground, in the smoke of the courtyard, a huge firework dragged a long tail flame into the air, until the ordinary fireworks could not fly anywhere, only to explode.

When he landed, half of the capital was shocked by the golden fireworks that were more than ten times larger than ordinary fireworks.

The east wind blooms thousands of trees at night, and blows down, and the stars are like rain!

Zhao Hao looked up at the gradually disappearing fireworks, and said silently in his heart:

'Goodbye to the first year of Longqing. ’

ps. The second more is delivered, asking for a monthly pass, a recommended ticket ~~~
