Chapter 18 The Mid-Autumn Festival Gala in the Otherworld
Although Mu Qianmei is a child's body, she has the mind of an adult, so she took on the responsibility of taking care of their brother and sister.
Mo Chou is still relatively innocent and lively, happy all day long, very happy, it seems that the pain of her grandfather's death, after a period of time, she has forgotten the general.
And Mo Huan is much duller, he rarely speaks, and the calmness and sadness in his eyes always make people feel distressed to watch.
Mu Qianmei made a few home-cooked dishes.
Several people sat around the dinner table, and Mu Qianmei asked with a smile, "How do you feel about today's exam?" ”
"Our exams were so easy! Hehe...... He asked us some simple questions, asked us to sing a song, talked about who was in our family, and then asked us to write our names, and finally asked us to write all the words we could write, hehe...... Sister Fluttershy, you taught us to write so many words, where can we finish it, I can't write it on the test paper, and I won't write it when it's full. However, I think there are still many people who can't even write their own names. We should have no problem! Mo Chou said proudly at the mention of this.
Mu Qianmei looked at Mo Chou's carefree and happy look, and her mood became relaxed.
So she smiled and said:
"Huh...... Mo Chou is so smart, you have to study harder in the future! There's so much you need to learn. By the way, Mo Huan, how did you do in the exam? ”
Mu Qianmei suddenly asked Mo Huan.
"My sister is fine, what can I do? Sister Fluttershy, you're only three years older than me, why do I think you know more than many adults, how did you learn it? Mo Huan couldn't help but ask curiously.
"My sister used to be a beggar, you all know that, right? It is normal for beggars to go all over the world, see a lot, and know a little more! Reading and writing are all forced by the old man to learn me! Hehe...... Enduring hardships makes people grow the fastest. Mu Qianmei explained with a smile.
"That little sister Fluttershy must have suffered a lot, so pitiful! In the future, Mo Chou must study hard and help his sister do things. Sister Fluttershy, you can study with us! With you teaching us, we will learn faster and better! Mo Chou said coquettishly to Mu Qianmei.
"Sister Fluttershy has a lot more important things to do? If you want to help me, you have to work your own, and if you can finish the six-year course in four or five years, then you can help me! Mu Qianmei said encouragingly.
"I don't know if I can do it, but I think my brother will be able to finish it soon. My brother is smart, no matter what difficulties we have, my brother can think of a solution! Mo Chou said proudly that he was extremely proud to have such a brother.
"Huh...... From then on, Mo Huan will teach her sister more! You have to learn together and improve together, you know? Mu Qianmei said.
"I'll help my sister, by the way, Sister Fluttershy, when are we going to start learning swordsmanship?" Mo Huan couldn't help but ask again.
"Now you lay the foundation first, and according to the internal strength and mental method I taught you, you will first practice the internal strength. No matter what you do, the foundation is very important, and when the foundation is laid, you will get twice the result with half the effort. When I feel that your foundation has been laid and your internal skills have made some progress, I will naturally find a master for you who is satisfactory to you. Mu Qianmei solemnly explained.
After eating, Mu Qianmei asked Mo Chou to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, wash them and put them away, and then began to take them to meditate and practice together.
On this peaceful night, they got along very well and harmoniously, as if they were originally a family.
Since the last opening ceremony, there was an extra exam due to the large number of people who came to register, which caused the actual start of the school year to be delayed a little.
After the exam on August 12, the teachers worked overtime to change the test papers.
The red list was posted on August 14, and the people who took the exam rushed to the red list in a hurry, constantly looking for their names.
When he saw his name, he was elated and excited.
I couldn't see my name, and they all looked sad and sullen.
Some of them couldn't find it after looking at it, and then they looked at it again from the beginning.
After searching again and again, some of them were able to find their names the second time, and the mood was even more exciting than those who had already found it the first time.
And some of them looked at it several times, but still couldn't find their name, so they had to leave dejectedly.
As the people gradually left, the lively academy slowly returned to calm.
Those who didn't get in, some of them originally lived in Luoya City, so they hurried to pack their bags and prepare to go home for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
And some people can't get a trip to a bustling metropolis like Luoya City, so they simply stay, ready to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival here and then go back.
Most of the people who were admitted were ready to move into the dormitory of Lingyin Academy the next day.
Mu Qianmei discussed with Elder Wang and proposed to hold a Mid-Autumn Festival party in the academy.
Originally, she wanted to hold a poetry party at first, but first, she didn't want to be in the limelight, and secondly, it didn't seem lively enough, and after thinking about it again, she still felt that it was better to hold a party.
After listening to Mu Qianmei's words, Elder Wang asked with a puzzled expression:
"Evening? What is a party? ”
Mu Qianmei suddenly remembered that there was no such statement here, so she explained:
"The evening party is an evening gathering, mainly based on performing literary and artistic programs, such as singing, dancing, telling jokes, reciting poems, etc., if there are any special talents, they can also be shown, just like playing the piano, blowing the flute, practicing a set of martial arts, etc., just to relax, entertain, and at the same time increase some literary and artistic knowledge."
"Oh, so what do you say is going to do that?" Elder Wang didn't support these things very much, the so-called "playthings are demoralized", and he only thinks about playing, how can he read the book well?
However, others don't know, but he knows, Mu Qianmei is the real founder of this academy, since she asks for this, let her go.
"I've already written how to do it, you can hand over my "Planning Book" to Vice Dean Zhuang Shujun, and let him come forward to undertake and preside over it." Mu Qianmei thought of the white-clothed scholar Zhuang Shujun again.
If he was born in his own era, he must also be a powerful idol star!
Not to mention that he is handsome, he is also gentle and elegant, both civil and military, and he gets along well with everyone in the beggars and the academy.
"Okay, you wrote that I will be responsible for handing it over to Vice Dean Zhuang to arrange." Elder Wang didn't think much about it, and readily agreed.
On the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, a big red notice was posted at the gate of Lingyin Academy.
"Evening? What is a party? ”
"You're not going to look back! More on that later. ”
"How creative! I don't know who came up with this idea? I like it! Haha......"
"Hurry up, we're ready to go, let's also report a show, join in the fun......"
……
There were a lot of people around the notice, and everyone was talking about it, and the people who came to read were either young people or children, and they were full of expectations for such an event.
This news quickly spread in Luoya City, and in half a day, it had become an explosive news that everyone in Luoya City knew.
Needless to say, young people and children are very happy, and some old people are also full of curiosity, and in this boring and ordinary life, suddenly there is such an interesting party, and everyone talks about it with relish.
There were many more people who signed up for the event than expected, and there was no way, so the college had to decide to choose the best ones.
On this day, in addition to the students who came to the academy, many parents and villagers also came.
The people who moved into the dormitory hurriedly sorted out their luggage and beds, and then went to the square to join in the fun or help.
At night, the whole academy is lit up with bright red lanterns, which illuminate the whole academy as if it were a dream, and the branches of the trees are also full of colorful ribbons, fluttering in the autumn wind.
The stage is also arranged like a dream, with a large light blue canvas as the background, on which are written "Lingyin Academy Mid-Autumn Festival Gala" eight big characters of dragons flying and phoenix dancing, which is very eye-catching and festive.
There are also two rows of lanterns hanging on the left and right sides of the stage, illuminating the entire stage.
In the upper left corner of the canvas, a round moon is painted, a fairy wearing a ribbon and a xia dress, flying towards the moon, the figure is painted vividly, like a butterfly-like beauty, very vivid and vivid.
It's a pity that no one here knows the story of "Chang'e Running to the Moon" and doesn't understand its meaning.
But just looking at it like this is a beautiful viewing pleasure.
Twinkling stars are painted on the side of the moon, and the whole night sky is even more beautiful.
The bottom of the canvas is full of yellow chrysanthemums, yellow, orange, orange, golden, and blooming.
And the most striking thing is the two poems in the middle, which make many people with literary cultivation can't help but indulge in them and be amazed.
I saw that below the moon was a song by Su Shi, "When is the Bright Moon"——
"When is the bright moon? Ask the sky for wine. I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high place is unbearable. Dance to figure out how the shadow seems to be in the world.
Turn Zhu Pavilion, low Qihu, shine sleeplessly. There should be no hatred, what is the long time to say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”
The following is signed "Dongpo Jushi".
And in the middle on the right, there is a poem by Zhang Jiuling "Looking at the Moon and Huaiyuan"——
"The moon is born on the sea, and the end of the world is at this time.
The lover complains about the night, and he is lovesick at night!
The candles are extinguished, and the light is full, and the clothes are dewed.
It's unbearable to give away, and it's a good time to sleep. ”
The following is signed "Mr. Zishou".
