Lantern Festival is on the market, and the New Year's climax is coming!

New Year's Eve is lively, but there is no moonlight; What about the Lantern Festival? It happens to be the bright moon in the sky. Decent New Year's Day. Bright red Spring Festival couplets are posted in front of every household, and people are wearing new clothes, but they are not beautiful enough. Lantern Festival, lanterns are hung everywhere, and the whole street is as lively and beautiful as a happy event.

Hundreds of lanterns are hung in famous old shops, some are all glass, some are all horns, and some are gauze lanterns; Some are colorful, and some are all the stories of painting a dream of red mansions or outlaws of the marsh. At that time, it was also an advertisement; As soon as the light is hung, anyone can go shopping; Lighting candles in the light at night will attract more people. This advertisement is not vulgar. Dried fruit shops do a lot of omnivorous business during the Lantern Festival, so they often make all kinds of ice lanterns, or make one or two green dragons with wheat seedlings to attract customers.

Besides hanging lights, there are flowers in the square. A judge at the stake was lit in the Town God Temple, and the flame spit out from the mouth, ears, nose and eyes of the judge's clay sculpture. Hang sky lanterns in the park and fly into the sky like a superstar.

Men and women come out to step on the moon, watch lights and watch fireworks; The people in the street were crowded and motionless. In the old society, women didn't go out easily, and they could get some freedom during the Lantern Festival.

Children buy all kinds of fireworks to set off, even if they don't go to the street to be naughty, they can still play with sound and light at home. There are also lights at home: lanterns-palace lanterns, all kinds of paper lanterns, and gauze lanterns, with Xiaoling inside, which will jingle when the time comes. Everyone must eat dumplings, too. This is indeed a beautiful and happy day.

Lantern Festival is mainly about watching lanterns. Watching lanterns has become a system, which seems to be mentioned in the Chronicle of Jingchu Years. More specific records actually began in the early Tang Dynasty, developed in the Song Dynasty and originated in the Han Dynasty. There are different things in the morning and evening, some are fourteen to sixteen, and some are fifteen to nineteen. The name of "Deng Shi" and its expansion began in the Song Dynasty.

In the past, people thought there was nothing wrong with the Tang and Song Dynasties. There is a "lantern market" for viewing lanterns. Although recorded in the notes of the Tang Dynasty, it was officially held from Bianliang in the Northern Song Dynasty, and Lin 'an in the Southern Song Dynasty continued to develop. Ming dynasty concentrated in Bamiancao area east of Donghuamen Street in Beijing.

According to the account of Tokyo Dream, the Lantern Festival in Song Dynasty lasted for five days, from 15th to 19th. In advance, a tens of feet high "Aoshan Lamp Shed" must be built, which is decorated with all kinds of lamps and is burning with tens of thousands of lamps. On this day, as usual, the feudal emperor took an open sedan chair, carried by several trusted eunuchs, and marched backwards. It is called "pigeon rotation", which is convenient for people to look around and watch the lights. Or invite a few tourists to come forward and send some wine and food, which is why the "golden cup gives wine" commonly used in old plays comes from this.

△ At the same time, the names of many lanterns were also recorded in the notes of the Song people at the Shanghai Yuyuan Lantern Festival. "Glass lamp" can be said to be a new variety. It not only appears in wealthy families, but also is used in shops to attract customers, as bright as a full moon. Luo is made of red and white gauze.

As for the styles of light sheds and all kinds of light balls, there are "Watching Lights in Song Dynasty" and "Watching Lantern Festival in Song Dynasty", which also left us some video materials. It can be seen that since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, all kinds of lamp scenes and other handicrafts reflected in the illustrations of Jin Ping Mei, Xuanhe Legacy and Water Margin, especially hundreds of extremely exquisite multi-faceted bead jade tassel ball lamps, have basically been handed down from the Song Dynasty.

In addition, many kinds of fish, dragons, cranes, phoenixes, exquisite lanterns, children's bamboo and horse lanterns, and underground rolling lights also came from the Song Dynasty.

Although it is difficult to know the styles and practices of the "glazed lanterns" and "Wan Yan Luo" in the Song Dynasty, the "goldfish water injection lamps" in the Ming Dynasty, and the lanterns made of strange eggshells and ice lanterns made of ice sculptures, as for the representative and practical new varieties in the Ming Dynasty, there are still physical objects in the Forbidden City.

Tang Priest and his disciples wandered in the sea of lights.

On the evening of May 3rd, the Spring Festival of Shangyuan and. Hang lanterns in downtown and sing peace song together. I saw the lights in six streets and three cities turned on, and a mirror rose in the air. The moon was like a phoenix pushing a silver plate, and the lamp was like a fairy weaving carpet. The lamp reflects the moon and doubles its brilliance; The moonlight shines brightly. Can't see the Iron Lock Star Bridge, can't see snuff.

Snowflake lamp, plum blossom lamp, spring ice cut into pieces; Embroidered screen lamp, painted screen lamp, colorful savings.

Walnut lamp, lotus lamp and lighthouse are hung high; Green lion lamp, white elephant lamp, high lamp holder.

Hanging shrimp lights and turtle lights in front of the shed; Sheep lamp, rabbit lamp, elves under the eaves.

Eagle lamp and phoenix lamp are connected together; Tiger lantern and lantern match.

Crane lamp, white deer lamp, birthday boy riding; Goldfish lamp, whale lamp, Li.

Aoshan lanterns, immortal party; Lanterns run, and military commanders meet. Thousands of lights and towers, more than ten miles of cloud world.

That wall box, jade sound and jade fly; This wall box, wheels are all fragrant cars. Look at the red makeup upstairs, leaning against the bar, across the curtain, shoulder to shoulder, holding hands, two beautiful women are very greedy; On the Green Water Bridge, there are noisy, crowded, drunk and mirthful tourists coming and going. The whole city is noisy with flutes and drums, and singing all night. ?

There are poems to prove it. Poetry says: colorful lotus sings splendid fields, and people are crowded with peace. Light the bright moon, light the midnight snack, and wind and rain will adjust with the wind after years. At that time, Jin Wu couldn't help it. There are countless people in the chaos, including dancers, stilts, ghosts and elephants, all gathered in the east and clustered in the west.

I am proud to have three light areas!

At that time, slaughter was prohibited from the first day of the first month to the fifteenth day of the first month. So before the Spring Festival, my mother bought some elbows, pig's trotters, chickens and ducks, cooked them, marinated them with soy sauce, red distiller's grains and many seasonings, stuffed them in a big jar, and ground a lot of glutinous rice gouache to make red and white rice cakes. These delicious foods, we have been eating until the Lantern Festival!

Our hometown is in Nanhou Street, Fuzhou. The customs of Fuzhou and the lanterns played by children during the Lantern Festival are all given by my grandmother. In Fuzhou dialect, "Deng" and "Ding" are homophonic, and "Tianding" is an auspicious sentence. So, my grandmother gave us four brothers and sisters five lamps!

My younger brothers are much younger than me and don't know how to play. At this time, I took advantage of them. I hung the lantern of "Three English Wars against Lyu3 bu4" on the wall, holding a goldfish lamp that can move my eyes in one hand and a rabbit lamp that can walk on the ground in the other, and I felt very proud.

Lantern Festival is a "rebellious festival".

I always thought the Lantern Festival was just the end of the year, but I didn't know it had so much meaning. This is a carnival festival, a release festival, a "Valentine's Day". "On the willow tip moon, people meet after dusk." "There are thousands of people looking for him, but that person is in the dim light." This is a poem left by the ancients when they described the Lantern Festival.

The Spring Festival is a restricted festival, and the Lantern Festival is a rebellious festival and a festival for young people. During the Spring Festival, families will get together and honor their parents at home, but on the Lantern Festival, young people will go out and look for that elegance and beauty in the noise.

Today is our Valentine's Day.

In the west, people's Valentine's Day is February 14, and our Valentine's Day is today-Lantern Festival. In our poems, "a bright future brings a bright future to another village, and people meet at dusk", how romantic!

Ouyang Xiu, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, described the words of husband and wife meeting at midnight in "Natural Tea Son Yuanxi", which is extremely beautiful and can be called a famous sentence throughout the ages. In fact, in ancient times, many literati talked about the mood of the Lantern Festival. For example, Tang Bohu's poem is "How can we get rid of this wonderful moment without showing our respect and smile?" . As night falls, it's time for the sun to set and fall asleep, but when it comes to the Lantern Festival, people are restless. This interest is high, and it falls on a word "music", making a sound and almost "laughing".

Farewell, home is far away.

During the Spring Festival, although the gathering time is very short, the old people who are eager for the reunion of their children really enjoy the family happiness. After the festival, the children suddenly "evacuated" and instantly broke the dream that the old people had just built. ...

Don't wait for filial piety, don't love being late, and care more about your parents no matter how busy you are, even if you make a phone call.
