Second, Lantern Festival.

Thousands of doors were unlocked and brightly lit, and they moved to Dijing in the middle of the first month.

Three hundred wives danced in sleeves and wrote the sky in an instant.

On the Lantern Festival, thousands of families go out of their homes, and countless lanterns light up in the street, as if the whole Kyoto is shaking. Countless ladies-in-waiting sleeve dances, the joy of singing and dancing on earth rose to the sky.

Third, Tomb-Sweeping Day.

Tomb-Sweeping Day Wang Yucheng [Song Dynasty]

I have lived in Tomb-Sweeping Day without flowers and wine. Like a monk in a temple, everything is depressing and lonely for me.

Yesterday, I discussed new kindling from my neighbor's house, and early in Tomb-Sweeping Day, I lit in front of the window and sat down to study.

Tomb-Sweeping Day has no flowers and wine, just like a monk in a temple in Shan Ye. Yesterday, I asked my neighbor for a new stove. At dawn, I lit a lamp at the window and sat down to study.

Custom: ancestor worship and outing

Fourth, Dragon Boat Festival.

Ji You Dragon Boat Festival North Qiong [Yuan Dynasty]

There is always sunshine in the end, and Miluo has nowhere to hang her soul.

Liu Hua should laugh at each other and wake up alone without wine.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, the weather was gloomy, and no one on the Miluo River mourned the death of Qu Yuan. The pomegranate flowers in full bloom seem to laugh at me, too. Even if Tao Yuanming doesn't drink, he admires Qu Yuan's outstanding sobriety.

Custom: eat zongzi and row dragon boats.

Verb (abbreviation for verb) Mid-Autumn Festival

Wang Jian [Tang Dynasty] saw Du Langzhong off at full moon for fifteen nights.

There are crows in Bai Shu and osmanthus in Coody Leng in the atrium.

I don't know who Qiu Si will meet tonight.

Crows inhabit the snow-white trees in the courtyard, and the autumn dew silently wets the osmanthus in the courtyard. People are looking up at the bright moon in the sky tonight. I wonder whose home Qiu Si's love belongs to?

Custom: Eat moon cakes and watch the moon.
