Chapter 127 Have you ever seen a mountain village at four or five in the morning on New Year’s Day? (Please subscribe and give me a monthly ticket)
In addition to the Gatling gun, which is purely based on its "powerful firepower", everyone also set off many more gentle and more "colorful" fireworks.
For example, the very cost-effective "Air Ballet", 0.8 inches, 107 rounds, small fan-shaped combination; and "Violet", 1.2 inches, 100 rounds, can be called the king of cost-effectiveness; there are also "Silver Fountain", "Golden House", "Peacock Spreading its Tail", "Swallow Piercing the Clouds", "Rocket Breaking the Sky" and so on.
I have to say that "金玉满堂" is a good phrase. It can be used in many places and can be used as names of people and things. These are all the "legacy" of our ancestors.
Although the children also set off fireworks, no family was as generous as Li Xiang's family. They set off so many in one day as if they were free. So the children were all jumping up and down, looking extremely happy.
Even many adults came to watch and chat.
In the sky full of fireworks, Jiang Caier turned around inadvertently and saw Li Xiang holding up his mobile phone to take pictures seriously. She couldn't help but smile, leaned sideways to jump into the camera, made a scissors gesture, and began to sing: "When will the God of Spring come so late? I count the silver hairs on my temples. I am afraid there will be rouge on the streets, and willow catkins will be stained with white snow and red..."
The clear voice sounded like pearls falling on a plate, and the gestures and expressions were playful and cute. Li Xiang was stunned. Why did he suddenly recite poetry? What kind of poem is this? Why haven’t I heard of it before? Could it have been written by an "unpopular poet" like Li Shangyin who is good at "plagiarism"? The "unpopular poet" Li Shangyin was once scolded and became a hot topic. He was also falsely accused of plagiarizing some works written thousands of years later. I guess he couldn't even be held down by his coffin! However, Jiang Caier did not recite poetry. Instead, she changed her voice and began to sing while dancing:
"The roaring quicksand, the white hair on the pillow, the wine in the cup, the elegance of youth, the bright clothes and the galloping horse are just a moment..."
The dance is seductive and the singing is charming. Such a cheerful, youthful song.
Li Xiang's eyes lit up. In fact, he had heard of this song before, it was called "Hong Zhaoyuan", but he had never heard the first part of the monologue. In fact, that part was in the original version, but it was removed later. However, this "retro version" has become popular again recently.
I have to say, before the screen was full of fireworks, Jiang Caier's singing like a silver bell and an oriole was so amazing that it almost made Li Xiang become mentally retarded!
Seeing Li Xiang staring at her in a daze, Jiang Caier couldn't help but smile shyly and turned around to go and join the other children in setting off fireworks.
The video of a large group of children, led by Jiang Caier, holding Gatling guns and firing volleys naturally attracted many comments and likes from fans.
Many fans live in the city and can only sigh in admiration at the screen.
After seeing the video, Luo Feifei, who was far away in the imperial capital, gave rewards and liked it. She was also very envious. She also wanted to hold the Gatling gun and set off fireworks, but her mother did not allow it, and the imperial capital also prohibited the setting off of fireworks.
Although Luo Feifei is a popular young actress, she often plays the heroine in ancient costume dramas, and she is always the kind who is very good at fighting. She is also very dedicated. In order to make a good scene, she often does everything herself without using a stunt double. Moreover, she is really talented. She has a solid dance foundation acquired since childhood, and with some moves learned from martial arts instructors, she can fight beautifully and coolly.
This kind of thing really depends on talent. No wonder Luo Feifei, in her previous life, was able to reach the Saint level within three years after obtaining the "opportunity". She had amazing combat power and was known as the "Iceberg Peach Blossom Little Sword Fairy".
"The divination has become clearer and clearer recently. He is the person destined for me. I must meet him as soon as possible!" Luo Feifei stroked a diamond ring on her finger and fell into deep thought.
Her diamond ring was not particularly big, only one carat, but it was exquisitely crafted and shiny. She liked it and bought it.
It's just an ornament. You don't have to be married to wear it.
Some people say that wearing a diamond ring before marriage can "ward off romantic relationships," and Luo Feifei actually wants exactly that. Maybe it really works. Since she wore this diamond ring, fewer people pursued her.
In fact, it’s not like that. It’s just that she is too cold. With the diamond ring, her temperament becomes even colder, which often keeps many people away.
Moreover, ever since she had those strange dreams and awakened some of her "past life memory fragments", and became proficient in divination, her aura became unique, and most people would feel inferior when they saw her and would not dare to get involved with her.
These factors not only make her aloof, but also make her "mysterious". For example, during this year's trip to the capital, she also "read fortunes" for several bigwigs and gave them guidance on how to "get out of the maze". Despite her young age, she managed to scare those bigwigs.
Everything she said came true one by one, and she even successfully helped a big boss resolve a "blood disaster", which is definitely not something an ordinary swindler can do.
Those big guys do have some vision when it comes to judging people. Which one of them is not knowledgeable and experienced?
Therefore, you must not neglect the instructions for your younger generations. Therefore, the seniority of the "little fairy" was raised out of thin air, and the young talents in the imperial capital, after being warned by their elders at home, dared not pursue her easily, and even dared not harass or chat with her.
When the "little fairy" received the script again, the director was polite to her, and she felt a little afraid of her. Naturally, the directors also seriously considered her opinions and suggestions and tried their best to meet their requirements.
Luo Feifei was also happy about this.
She said in Li Xiang’s fan group that she was 43 years old, and it was not nonsense. In her previous life, she met with an accident and died at the age of 28. In this life, she is only 15 years old. Doesn’t the total age make her 43 years old?
She really looks down on ordinary young people, let alone little kids of the same age.
According to this calculation, Li Xiang’s age in two lives should add up to 39+25=64 years.
Well, they are all short-lived.
…
Jiang Caier didn't play outside for too long and went home to sleep at about eight o'clock in the evening.
Tonight is New Year’s Eve. After midnight, it will be New Year’s Day.
Then, people from all over the place would start setting off "opening firecrackers" one after another, because there is a saying that "opening the door is auspicious", and the earlier you set off the firecrackers, the more auspicious it is. In the past, people mostly started at four or five in the morning, but later "it became more and more exciting", and people set off the firecrackers earlier and earlier, until many people set off the firecrackers as soon as it was past midnight, thinking to themselves, let's see who can set off the firecrackers earlier than me? !
Of course, there are also many people who don’t care about this. When they wake up and it’s almost time, they open the door and set off firecrackers. So, the firecrackers will start at midnight and continue one after another until eight or nine in the morning.
On the morning of the first day of the New Year, many families worship their ancestors or "burn incense" (to commemorate the relatives who passed away last year). They also set off firecrackers. Then, at noon, they will set off firecrackers again. In short, if you don’t go to bed early on New Year’s Eve, don’t expect to sleep well! Most cities, even county towns, now ban the use of fireworks, so city dwellers don’t have this worry and sleep soundly. Of course, the festive atmosphere is also missing.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, at three o'clock in the morning, Jiang Caier was awakened by the continuous "firecrackers" outside, which were heard from far and near. So she got up, washed, made a large pot of fragrant tea, and started writing the test paper in the study.
This set of tea set was given to her by Li Xiang. It comes with a built-in heat-insulating base (electric heating, 55℃) and is made from Jingdezhen porcelain. It has a nice name, called "Green Calyx Heralding Spring", and is very beautiful.
Green-calyx plum blossom is a kind of plum blossom. Plum blossom is the earliest flower to bloom every year, so it is also called primrose and the messenger of spring.
Although there was white frost and the air was freezing cold outside, Jiang Caier's boudoir was filled with the fragrance of tea, steam and warmth like spring.
He drank tea and ate a large plate of snacks, including biscuits, chocolates, pastries, peanuts, melon seeds, macadamia nuts, pecans, almonds, and persimmon cakes from Li Xiang. His efficiency increased and he had finished most of the test paper in a short while.
At about 4:30, Jiang Jianguo also got up, opened the door and set off firecrackers. Jiang Caier opened the window, took a photo of the night scene, and posted it on WeChat Moments.
"Have you ever seen the mountain village at 4 or 5 in the morning on New Year's Day? The fireworks are so beautiful, and the sound of firecrackers is heard one after another. Cai'er would like to wish everyone a happy new year and a happy new year!"
That photo was taken from the window of her boudoir. Her house was located on a relatively high ground, so she was able to capture her own yard and the fireworks rising into the sky in the distance. It was indeed very beautiful under the night sky.
There are also some rules for framing views from windows. It is a method of "borrowing scenery" commonly used in Jiangnan gardens, also known as "framing the scenery". The view is obtained through the window, so the window is also a painting, and the painting is also a window.
Therefore, this photo of Jiang Caier is full of artistic conception.
The most important thing is that she adopted Li Xiang's previous advice and added a little bit of trickery. When framing the picture, she "inadvertently" captured some "scenery" on the desk in front of the window. In the lower right corner of the photo, there are not only a fine teapot, two cups of fragrant tea, snacks, and persimmon cakes, but also several completed test papers. A pen was placed diagonally on the test paper, and next to it was a pen refill that had just been replaced after use.
After she posted on WeChat Moments, she added: "Two cups of fragrant tea to all my relatives and friends, one to the New Year, one to the past! May you see the world and return with the same clear features; may you walk through the world and return as a young man! - Happy New Year to everyone!"
After she finished posting on WeChat Moments, she closed the window and sat down to continue doing her homework. However, as she drank the two cups of fragrant tea, she said softly, "One cup is for you, brother, and one cup is for me."
Jiang Caier got up early today and did a total of ten test papers, which took her six hours. She didn't finish until nine in the morning. It took her an average of more than thirty minutes to finish one paper, which even Jiang Caier herself was shocked.
"Oh my god, is my efficiency so high this morning? Moreover, I feel that everything I did was right, and it was definitely not random writing!"
She muttered secretly, "After practicing the breathing method taught by my brother, my brain seems to be becoming more and more sharp, and I can write like a god!" She felt the spiritual power surging in her body, and it seemed that it was beginning to condense into the "spiritual power vortex" that her brother had mentioned!
But she tried it and found that she was "out of her depth".
"It still doesn't work. It seems like it's just one step away from success. Well, I'll ask my brother secretly during the afternoon dinner."
…
When Jiang Caier's head teacher, Mr. Huang, woke up early in the morning, he saw the circle of friends of his favorite student. He was excited, liked the post, and forwarded it to other colleagues to share.
Originally, Teacher Huang saw the Lijiacun Village Gala on the Internet before. Jiang Caier also performed on stage and took a group of children to play Gatling last night. She was a little angry, but after all, it was the New Year, so she didn't want to be too strict.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Caier immediately gave her a surprise! It's so early on the first day of the new year, but I've already started working hard on the questions. I've done so many test papers that even one of my pens has run out of ink. I can't help but sigh, this is what a good student looks like. This is the state one should be in when taking entrance exams for Peking University or Tsinghua University. It's exciting, encouraging and uplifting! The head teacher not only showed off to other colleagues, but also forwarded this photo of Jiang Caier to the class parent group. Other teachers also forwarded it to their respective class parent groups to motivate their students.
Oh my god, the parents are going crazy and are forcing their children to stop playing and do their homework and practice exercises. What relatives are you visiting? Watching a movie on New Year's Day? You wish! It’s already this late and you’re still watching a movie. When you go to college, you will have plenty of time to watch it!
If you don’t suffer from studying now, you will suffer from life in the future!
The top girl in your class is doing her homework. She has better grades than you and works harder than you. What qualifications do you have to play around?
Oh my god, my classmates are suddenly so anxious that they can’t have a good New Year.
Some classmates complained: "This Jiang Caier is too much. You are the first in the whole school, but you are still so hardworking. Can't you let us celebrate the New Year?"
"That's right. I was planning to rest for a few days and work harder after the third day of the New Year. Alas, now I have to do it earlier. What a miserable life I have."
Some people swore: "I must surpass Jiang Caier!" However, these people could only think about it, because Jiang Caier had already developed spiritual power in her body and had already reached the level of a transcendent.
Extraordinary, extraordinary, it is easy for me to crush ordinary people like you.
Once she condenses the vortex of spiritual power, her whole person will undergo a qualitative change, and she will no longer be able to be caught up by these ordinary people.
Because Jiang Caier is a top student. When she becomes a true extraordinary person, condenses the vortex of spiritual power, and awakens her first superpower, her energy, physical strength, and intelligence will be significantly improved. Even if it is only at the first level, how can ordinary people compare to her? With a "spiritual power vortex", the spiritual power in the body circulates on its own, and your energy and physical strength are inexhaustible. It is like having an extra "nuclear power engine" and you are in peak condition all the time. Who can beat you?
You have been in classes for a day, done homework for a day, and are exhausted both physically and mentally. Even drinking coffee to refresh yourself doesn't work, but others are still full of energy. How can you compare? (End of this chapter)
