Chapter 456: Night Tour of Lantern Festival
The school's "Autumn Moon Lantern Festival" is held in the Huangshu Hall in the middle. The building is shaped like a large starship placed on the ground. The overall shape is roughly sword-shaped. The entrance is a gate sandwiched by two "∠"-shaped walls. Entering inside is the venue of the "Autumn Moon Lantern Festival". The hall on the first floor is about the size of two football fields. The front half is a variety of stalls and small shops, and the back half is a temporarily vacant stage and auditorium.
Soon after Orles and Tilan walked into the gate, they saw various lanterns hanging on both sides of the passage. There were also rabbit and moon-shaped soft light lanterns flying in the sky, which set off a very lively atmosphere.
Since today is a holiday party, many senior students who are away will also return to school during this time to reunite. There are many more students along the way than usual.
"Shui Yanqing and Blanche are almost here. Let's transfer here first. When they arrive, we will go in together." Tilan said to Orles after looking at the message sent on the personal terminal.
Orlesi didn't care much about this. After simply saying that she knew, she took Tilan's hand and walked to a small shop selling fans on the street.
"Would you like to pick two fans, two singing girls~"
The shop was run by a senior student. She looked lazy, wore black-framed glasses, and sat behind the stall in a long-collared skirt decorated with peach blossoms.
"These fans don't look like they were made by a person." Orlesi picked up one first and looked at it carefully. It exuded a faint native wood fragrance, and the edges and corners were finely polished. It felt very comfortable to the touch. It was the kind of thing that looked ordinary at first glance, but was very pleasing to the eye after a closer look.
"Of course it wasn't made by me. I don't know how to make fans." The senior student slightly raised her head and then talked about the history.
"It's just that I believe my aesthetic taste is not bad, so I bought a batch from a few brands I like."
"I will definitely make a profit on the price difference, but I will also recommend suitable and good fans to you." After saying that, she pushed her glasses, looked carefully at the two young singing girls' outfits today, and then took out two pieces from the various fans on display.
"Try these two round fans." She handed over two.
"Compared to folding fans, round fans are more suitable for silk weaving and embroidery. With today's enchanting technology, round fans with extraordinary imprint patterns can also be made."
"First, this 'Cold Plum Cold Fragrance Fan'." She handed one of them to Orles. This round fan was embroidered with a few cold plums, and there seemed to be faint snowflake patterns in it.
"Just inject a little magic power, and you can fan out a cool breeze. There is a device that automatically adjusts the magic output, so you don't have to worry about controlling it."
Just from the appearance, this fan is a handicraft made of traditional craftsmanship, but after holding it in your hand, you will find that it is not that simple inside. Only a little magic power is needed to fan out a cool breeze, and even people with Sequence 1 can use it.
After taking it, Orles fanned it a few times and felt that it was not bad, so she kept it.
"The other 'Firefly Around Candle Fan' is for Miss Heshia." After saying that, she put a round fan embroidered with flowing fireflies into the girl's hand.
"When this fan is waved, it will emit a faint trace of fireflies, which will slowly fly in the direction of the wave, bringing some fun to the night."
Speaking of practicality, it is not very practical. The students in the school are all above Sequence 5, so there is no need to use this method to cool down and create a firefly environment, but these fans are better at creating an atmosphere, which makes many students like them.
Orles nodded slightly, then reached out to pay the senior sister. She didn't need this little money anyway, so she bought it if she was slightly interested.
Taking the fan handed over by Orles, Tilan tried to wave it, and sure enough, she saw faint firefly particles on the fan, and then flew in all directions. It
was quite interesting. The girl blinked, and then tried a few more times before giving up.
Looking at Tilan's rare girlish behavior and movements, Orles thought it was very cute, and thought about giving Tilan more similar small gifts in the future and watching her play.
After buying the fan, the two continued to walk around in the store by the entrance, looking at the various oriental trinkets on sale, as well as some small handicrafts, such as exquisite and special porcelain, etc.
Not long after, the two of them only visited two houses, and Shui Yanqing arrived with Blanche.
Shui Yanqing lived up to her name, wearing a chest-length dress with sea-blue patterns, the fabric was particularly light and soft, while Blanche was much more conservative, wearing a yellow top and white bottom coat, wrapped up very tightly.
In contrast, both Orlesi and Tilan wore skirts, but Orlesi's was a chest-length skirt, while Tilan's was a cross-collar skirt.
After the four of them arrived, they began to walk inside, and along the way they saw all kinds of oriental snacks and desserts. What surprised the other three was that Tilan seemed to be very familiar with these, and even knew the specific details of how to make several types of snacks.
"If you are frying tofu, the time must not be too short or too long. If it is too short, the tofu will still be cold inside. If it is too long, the water inside will disperse and it will be overcooked, and the taste will not be delicate and delicious."
"In addition, the best thing about fried tofu is the contrast between the small ingredients sprinkled on the outside and the sweetness of the tofu inside. There is a sense of clear layers. If the tofu is completely marinated before frying, it will lose this sense of clear layers of contrast."
"Has Tilan cooked at home before?" Shui Yanqing couldn't help but be curious. Nowadays, there are very few people who cook for themselves in the lives of federal residents, especially in developed places such as the Central Star Region. They just buy ready-made food or use fixed recipes made by the AI cooking machine at home.
"Well, I have cooked before." Her cooking skills can be said to be forced out, but she can't say she is good at it. It is far worse than her mother, but she has seen a lot since she was a child, so her appreciation level has been raised.
"Come to think of it, Tilan also has black hair." Blanche thought of this question.
Black hair is not necessarily an oriental person, but most oriental people have black hair.
"I was misled by Tilan's eyes." Orles looked at Tilan's appearance again and commented.
"The blue eyes are so beautiful that other elements are ignored." Shui Yanqing said with a smile.
"Well." Tilan rolled up the hair on the side of her ear, and the color of her eyes gradually changed to a dark brown and almost black state, which also perfectly matched the black hair, giving her the temperament of a classical oriental beauty. "
I do have oriental blood, but in modern society, it is still too troublesome to maintain the style of the ancient times."
Although the classical oriental costumes are beautiful, this kind of dress often needs to be matched with the combing of the hair, the decoration of pendants, etc., which is not so convenient in life.
In addition, it is precisely because there are two oriental-style singers, Audney (Feng Jianshang) and Luo Fenghua, in the school, in order to avoid collisions in personal style, Tilan rarely wears oriental clothes.
Speaking of this, Shui Yanqing mentioned several singers of oriental blood.
"The atmosphere there makes the singers almost never involve rock-related music styles. They are all quiet and gorgeous, and the oriental instruments are also very distinctive. If you are not an oriental person, it is difficult to understand the spirit and charm."
This has led to the fact that most of the singers active in the eastern star field of the Federation are from the local area, and it is difficult for singers from other star fields to enter that market.
"Although it has not happened before, Tilan can try this direction in the future. Maybe it will make people's eyes light up or surprise them." Shui Yanqing encouraged Tilan with a smile.
Even though this singer with long blue hair usually has a kind face, the three people present have gradually become accustomed to the occasional black belly and teasing of this blue-haired singer. She is not as simple and approachable as outsiders imagine.
"Okay, let's talk about this later. We still have to go to the evening party today. I heard that Odney and others will perform on stage." Tilan changed the topic and talked about the part she was looking forward to tonight.
"Well, it is said that Oddni and Pulin will compete again at the party." Blanche was well-informed for once, and she told the information she heard.
"Oddni didn't tell me." Maybe she was afraid of losing and being embarrassed, Tilan thought.
Singers also need to save face, especially she and Oddni, because they are both descendants of the Five Phoenixes, and they have a spiritual and blood relationship. As the "White Swan", Oddni doesn't want to make a fool of herself in front of her again.
Unless she wins in the end, Oddni will talk about this with Tilan afterwards. After getting along for this period of time, Tilan is familiar with Oddni's little personality.
The four of them walked and walked, while shopping and sightseeing, while eating all kinds of snacks, until the show of the party gradually started, and they rushed to the stage in the back half of the hall with others.
The screen-like background board gradually lit up, like a huge golden full moon, and then a long piano sound gradually sounded.
The party performance officially kicked off.
