It rained heavily for four or five days in a row, and the rain was pouring down, except for necessary things, such as students passing exams, most people from all walks of life could only rest at home helplessly.

On the beams of every house, so hang a variety of sweeping girls.

After the exam, Xu Qingtang insisted on taking his grandson home in the heavy rain, for fear that the young man next door would bring his own child to the ground. Xu Hao and others were temporarily trapped in a mountain villa outside the city, the roads were muddy, the water level was soaring, and they waited for the weather to clear before returning to Beijing.

In the blink of an eye, it is the seventh day of the seventh day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, which is one of the traditional ghost festivals, although it is a festival, but in fact it is not a festival in ancient times, and the other two ghost festivals are Qingming and Hanyi, which are the days when Chinese worship their ancestors since ancient times.

In ancient times, filial piety was most admired, so the Middle Yuan Day has now evolved into an important "eight festivals", one of the Shangyuan Lantern Festival, Qingming, Lixia, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Winter Solstice, and Chinese New Year's Eve.

The Qingming Festival of the Ming Dynasty is also called the Cold Food Festival, on this day people have to go to the grave, and the suburbs go out to play, the new soil to the grave of the ancestors, that is, to add the grave. In the Han Dynasty, the days of going to the grave were as long as 100 days, but later it is said that Cao Cao changed it to one day, and the Tang Dynasty stipulated that three days before the Qingming Festival, all fires must be extinguished, and cold food should be eaten to show respect for the ancestors.

Zhongyuan is the second day of the year when people spontaneously worship their ancestors, and later formed the underground palace Christmas day, which was incorporated into the Chinese mythological system.

Legend has it that the underground palace is in charge of the gates of hell leading to the underworld, and on the seventh day of the seventh month, the underground palace will open the gates of hell, and the deceased ancestors can return home for reunion, which is the most important of the three major underworld festivals in ancient times.

On the first day of the first month of October, people once again go to the grave to worship their ancestors, buy paper to make clothes, wrap them up, and burn them in front of their own doors at night.

The concept of hell mostly comes from Taoist cultural ideas, and the Tang Dynasty was influenced by Buddhism to produce the mythical concept of Western Elysium, or heaven, which the Chinese actually don't care about.

Because of the peace of entering the earth, most of the Chinese are pragmatic, just hoping that the souls of the ancestors can have a place to live, and they believe that the dead are all in the underground, waiting for the reincarnation to be reborn, and only a few people can be led to the heavenly court or to see the Buddha by the gods after death.

In the middle of the year, the ancestors will come to the world to "eat fireworks again", fireworks are specially prepared by the descendants, through guò burning paper to light lamps and offering food and other forms, expressing the feelings of missing the ancestors and fathers, implying filial piety.

The sky is clear, dojos are set up everywhere inside and outside Jinling, countless steamed buns are put on the outskirts of the roadside for the lonely souls and wild ghosts to eat, and the major avenue temples hold grand pujas to pray for auspicious dojos, for the souls of the deceased, and the temple is the day of the Yu Lan Festival on this day, and it is also necessary to exceed for the dead.

Xu Hao and others hurried back, and the families were busy going out of the city to worship their ancestors and go to the grave, ordering lotus lamps to light the way home for the ancestors, and the flow of people rushing out of Jinling was like a tide.

There is nothing for girls to go to the grave, and for them, Halloween is a matter for adults. Today is also the traditional festival of the girl, the Qixi Festival, also known as the Qiqiao Festival, the Qiqiao Festival, and the Seven Sisters Festival.

Qixi is a very romantic word that sounds like it, the earliest originated from the ancients' worship of the universe and nature, three or four thousand years ago, in China's earliest astronomical records, because of the emergence of agriculture and textile cloth at that time, named Altair and Vega.

Chinese astronomy is much more than Altair and Vega, and the ancestors believed that there were seven stars in the sky in the east, west, north and south, which were collectively known as the Twenty-Eight Nakshatras. Among them, the Big Dipper is the brightest, which can be used to discern the direction at night.

The first star of the Big Dipper is called Kuixing, also known as Kuishou. Later, with the imperial examination system, the champion was called the "Great Kui Tiancorpor", and the scholars regarded Qixi as the "Kui Xing Festival", and the book was derived from the earliest star worship.

During the Tang Dynasty, according to the "Kaiyuan Tianbao Relics", it was recorded that Tang Taizong and his concubines had a night banquet in the Qing Palace every Qixi Festival, and the palace maids begged for their own skills, and since then the customs of the Qixi Festival have also begun to endure among the people and have continued from generation to generation.

During the Song and Yuan dynasties, the Qixi Festival was already quite grand. Nowadays, there is a fang market in Jinling City that specializes in selling begging goods, probably because the capital has not been moved to the north, the Ming Dynasty in history, the Qixi Festival gradually faded, and the girls are celebrating on a small scale at home.

However, under the influence of the Buddhist Yu Lan Society, during the day in the north, there are many acrobatic activities such as lion dances and Yangge performances on the city streets, and at night, people will put thousands of river lanterns along the river.

The north is affected by the weather, and after the middle day, the cruise ship will be closed.

Now the begging market is extremely lively, and it is restored to the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty novel "Drunkard Talks" recorded in the "Qixi Festival, Pan Lou in front of the buying and selling begging things." Since July 1st, the carriages and horses are disgusted, to the three days before the Chinese Valentine's Day, the carriages and horses do not pass, the phase is suppressed, and it is no longer obtained, and the noisy scene is dispersed until the night.

Folk women are convinced of the poignant love story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, and on the morning of the eighth day of the seventh month, they will feel that the crow and magpie are flying a little later than usual, and they will laugh and say that they went to fill the bridge on the Milky Way last night.

At the annual Queqiao Meeting, the stars are shining brightly at night, and countless girls invariably stand under the moon in front of the flowers, look up at the starry sky, looking for the Cowherd Star and the Vega Star on both sides of the Milky Way, hoping to see the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting on the Magpie Bridge, and pray that God will let him be as ingenious as the Weaver Girl, and pray that he can also have a happy marriage.

Over time, the Qixi Festival, although it is not a "Valentine's Day", but the word romance has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and this day seems to have become no less than the grandest and most important Spring Festival.

Fang City has simply become a sea of people, looking at its style, the Qixi Festival has gradually become one of the most popular festivals of people.

People outside the city are busy worshipping their ancestors and going to the graves, people in the city are busy preparing for the reunion family feast, and the girls are busy in the courtyard, putting a bowl of water, throwing small needles each, floating on the water, and looking at the shadow of the sun under the water. Or scattered like flowers, moving like clouds, thin as a line, thick as a vertebrae, because of the clumsiness of the girl, it is said to lose the needle.

Qiqiao market mainly sells all kinds of sticky incense lanterns, after lit, on the water surface like ten thousand points of fireflies. There are also ingenious girls from the common people's families, lotus flowers, lotus leaves, flower baskets, cranes and herons and other lotus lamps made of various colored paper, as well as a dazzling array of small toys and trinkets, so they are loved and welcomed by people.

In the afternoon, Hongwen, who had been in the house for five or six days, became more and more bored, and the old man took the whole family to the temple to worship as soon as he came home, she was not qualified, so she did not freshen up, and lay on the bed groggy.

Xilan lost the needle outside, ran back to the room to see her, and saw that there was no sign of getting up, so she dared to run to the vicinity of Shufang Pavilion to find Mu Ming.

It just so happened that Mu Ming was sitting on the shore bored, looking at the pavilion in a daze, recalling the details of the day when he got along with Hongwen, when he touched the soft and lovely breasts, he still remembered, if he was lucky enough to hug her even for a moment, I don't know how comfortable it was!

The hatred was dissipated by the green children, Mu Ming looked at the pavilion and let out a sigh from time to time.

For several days, he didn't think about tea and food, and he couldn't sleep at night, so he had the heart to go to Hongwen's side to reply, but he didn't dare, because Aunt Shen was at home all day long, and there was no suitable excuse, and besides, the garden was full of people.

Boredom threw a stone into the pond, splashing a little ripple www.biquge.info the pen and fun pavilion, Mu Ming suddenly saw Xilan running over like a flower and a willow, and suddenly fell from the sky, stood up and shook his hand vigorously, and shouted: "Sister Xilan, where are you going?"

"Don't shout, I have something to say to you." Xilan also hurriedly shook her hand at him and ran out of the inner house.

The two mothers-in-law turned a blind eye, and Mu Ming excitedly ran over with her, ran all the way to the small courtyard where she lived, and pushed the courtyard door with her hand.

Looking around, the few people who lived with him were not there, and he had no time to ask Xilan what he had to say to him. Mu Ming rushed over and hugged each other, shouting: "Good sister, I have liked you for a long time, please be married to me, and fulfill your wish for many days!"

Xilan, who couldn't catch off guard, was dizzy, but she didn't expect him to be bolder than her? Being held tightly in the arms of the man, the person immediately softened, really surprised, happy and scared, and struggled: "Are you impatient? Dare to tease others, let go, I'm going to call someone, I will beat you to death. ”

Mu Ming is the kind of character who has identified the goal and vows not to give up if he doesn't succeed, and when a man arrives at this time, even if he is put into the oil pot afterwards, he must be put out of the way, not to mention that although Xilan is strict, her body does not resist much, which shows that she is most likely willing.

Anyway, Mu Ming, who was still a virgin, simply carried her a few steps into the room, and then pressed the person down on the kang and took off her skirt indiscriminately.

Seeing that things had come to this, Xilan didn't even feel like she was struggling, she closed her eyes, blushed, and her hands hung down softly.

One is the first brother who hears about men and women, and the other is a virgin who has not broken the melon, half imitating the movements of adults, half of them are their own talent points, attracting each other, hugging each other and kissing and kissing.

Next, no matter how hard Mu Ming tried, the sweaty one was always not allowed to enter the door, but in the end, it was Xilan who shyly helped it correct its position.

With such a painful cry, the two of them transformed into adults in the blink of an eye.

Mu Ming, who was in the field for the first time, had no experience, and he was trembling and shivering in a few clicks, while Xilan frowned and suffered from the pain, and wished that he would finish it sooner.

Mu Ming, who was very happy and satisfied, helped Xilan up, hugged her gently in her arms, gasping for breath, and was at a loss for a while.

And how experienced is Helan relative to him? unhurriedly pulled the placket of his shirt, but deliberately did not button it, allowing the man's hand to take the opportunity to eat tofu on his chest.

Carefully wiped both sides with Mu Ming's handkerchief, folded them and hid them with great importance, lifted his pants, tied his belt tightly, raised his hand to straighten his hair, and squinted his eyes.

"Now that I'm completely ruined in your hands, I have no choice but to accept my fate, who told me to throw myself into the net? But who will I entrust my body to in the future?"

"Good sister, don't worry." Mu Ming said: "I will definitely beg my uncle to ask the master to ask you back, we will be a husband and wife for a long time, and we will never abandon you." If I Mu Ming has half a word of lie, I will not die well in another day. ”

Like most girls, Xilan hurriedly pressed his mouth and said softly, "Who wants you to bet on the curse?" Well, I know your heart. ”

At that moment, Xilan snuggled in Mu Ming's arms, looking intoxicated and well-behaved. Speaking of which, the two young people are not very afraid, it is true that they have violated the family rules in private, and those who are strict are even capital crimes, but one is not married and the other is not married, and the young people have mutual affection, and there is a skin-to-skin kiss after impulse, which is also understandable for those who have come over.

Mu Ang and his wife are both reasonable people, especially Du Qianqian is a famous good person, this incident happened outside the inner house, seeing that they are indeed heart-to-heart, at most a few reprimands, the two of them were immediately expelled from the house, at most ordered never to step into the door of the house. And then after a while, it will be fulfilled, and then besides, isn't it okay?

After being intimate for a long time, Mu Ming asked, "Back to business, what explanation do you have for me?"

Xilan smiled and shook her head, originally planning to match him and her grandmother through guò, and then let him get himself done first, but he didn't expect that God would fulfill people's wishes, and he would be corrected on the spot as soon as he came, so why bother?

However, then again, I'm afraid that he doesn't mean to drink and deliberately create evil, if he can't take the opportunity to get close to his grandmother, what if he abandons it?

Xilan was entangled for a while, thought about it, and asked tentatively: "It seems that my grandmother has you in her heart, but it's hard to say, and I'm afraid that there will be many people." That day was like you in the pavilion, and I don't say that you understand. You say we might as well think of a way to get you along with her, and she will repay you and me for fulfilling it?"

Mu Ming's eyes lit up, and he smiled: "If you don't say it, I think so too." When you come to me today, I am naturally an interesting person, and I will not ask you to go in vain. ”

Xilan was very disappointed when she heard this, fortunately, she was very self-aware, there were beautiful and well-known girls in the garden, she had no relatives to rely on, and she had no outstanding appearance, and third, she was not a person in Mrs. Shen's house, if he didn't do it for Hongwen, I was afraid that he wouldn't even look at himself.

What if he became his person? There are many men who don't admit it afterwards, let alone being a maid for two years, and it is easy to change later, if there is no beautiful grandmother who hangs his heart for a long time, Xilan has no self-confidence.

Xilan is only fifteen years old this year, and it is already the limit to be able to think so much, at this moment, the whole body and mind have been completely tied to Mu Ming, a girl who is a little confused and simple, I am afraid that she will do it if she is not asked to steal and rob now.

"Phew!" Xilan, who was in a flashing mind, was still unhappy, so she raised her feet and left, "Something without conscience, a thief embryo that kills people, strengthens my body, and you still say such cold words?" I'm blind, and next time, I'll never be fooled by you. ”

Mu Ming chased after her and grabbed her, and said with a smile: "Good sister, I deliberately joked about it, how dare I covet her?" Why are you serious?"

"Humph!" Xilan, who had a cold face, felt aggrieved and jealous, but she didn't dare to attack, for fear of annoying the other party.

Mu Ming is not afraid that she would rather choose to suffer a dumb loss? In the future, everyone will never get along with each other, won't they just taste the sweetness and beat the chickens and eggs?

So he casually ripped off the sweat towel from Xilan's sleeve, tucked it into his sleeve, and said with a smile: "Good sister, this sweat towel is rewarded to me." When I saw it, it was like seeing my sister. ”

"Bring it?" Xilan stretched out her hand, although her voice was cold, her face was not ugly.

In fact, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts at the same time, and the expression means the object of love, which is the entanglement between men and women without an emotional foundation, and they can't communicate with each other at all, and they are always suspicious.

As Mu Ming licked his face Sister Qian, Sister Wan screamed, and soon Xilan couldn't help but laugh and hummed: "Don't pester me, beware of being seen." I'll go first, and when I have time, maybe I'll come back here to look for you. ”

"Yes, yes, I remember, remember." Mu Ming didn't say yes, so he let her go out. (To be continued......)
