Chapter 64 Preparing for the first Spring Festival in Datang

It was almost the New Year's Eve, and in just a few days, Luo Yan couldn't stand Qu Tuquan's begging, so he went to Jiyaxuan.The rest of the time, he was in Lu's residence, studying with Lu Deming.

Luo Yan had told his righteous brother before that he would not leave until the first lunar month, so he prepared his luggage early, but Luo Yan thought that he would leave after the Lantern Festival.In the first lunar month, even if you pay a high price, it is not easy to find a driver to go to Luzhou.

A few days passed like this, and New Year's Eve arrived in a blink of an eye.

Although the Chinese New Year is not as beautiful as getting married and marrying a daughter-in-law, the servants of the Lu Mansion are exhausted these days.Basically every house has been carefully cleaned inside, and some old decorations have been replaced with new ones.The mansion actually hung up red lanterns in many places.

Master Lu's son didn't arrive in Chang'an before the new year, so this year the Lu family is still Lu Deming's old couple, plus Ying'er and Luo Yan.But with Luo Yan and Yinger, two juniors, Lu Deming and his wife would not feel lonely.

There is a lack of fireworks and a lack of door gods, but New Year's Eve is not easy.

Peach charms need to be changed.Originally, it would be enough to write the words Yu Lei and Shen Tu on the peach charms, but Luo Yan took two pieces of peach wood and asked a painter in Chang'an City to paint these two great gods according to the portraits circulated by the people.

The little girl Ying'er was very interested in the menacing-looking portraits painted on the wood chip. Although she just took down the old peach charms and hung up the new peach charms, Yinger seemed very excited during the process. You have to hold a small bench and stand on your feet to hang it yourself.

Meng Chang, the emperor of Later Shu, wrote on the Taofu "Nayuqing in the New Year, and Changchun in Jiajie." This is the first couplet of the Spring Festival.Luo Yan made it a door god for what was supposed to be the Spring Festival couplets, so Luo Yan naturally didn't want to let go of the Spring Festival couplets.On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Luo Yan walked around the East and West Market all day, on the one hand, to fulfill his promise to Yinger, and on the other hand, to do New Year's goods.

Lu Deming had no objection to Luo Yan taking Ying'er out. When Luo Yan asked Lu Deming for instructions the first day, the old master readily agreed.Originally, Luo Yan was going to surprise Yinger, but who knows where she got the news, she was waiting at Luo Yan's door early in the morning, so scared that Luo Yan woke up cautiously.

Naturally, Luo Yan didn't need to buy those chickens, ducks, fish, meat and vegetables, the housekeeper of Lu's house had already arranged them.What Luo Yan has to prepare now is the gifts to be given out when visiting relatives and friends on the first day of the new year.

Naturally, this thing cannot be sloppy.Luo Yan thought about it carefully, his teacher and his wife needed to send something, the little girl Yinger was also indispensable, there were also Kong Yingda and the others who were particularly familiar with the bachelors of the Literature Museum, and Qu Tuquan and the former Secretary who took special care of him. His old Mr. Zhao.Originally, Cui Ying was added, but this guy has already returned to Boling, so he can only be dragged to the back.

As for others like Li Shimin, well, during the Chinese New Year, Li Shimin will have a banquet to entertain his think tanks, and Luo Yan is naturally qualified to attend.About giving gifts, after asking Lu Deming, Luo Yan saw his teacher looking at him like a fool, and Luo Yan knew that he had committed a crime.As an aide, you only need to seriously make plans for your boss, what kind of gift, etc., will people appreciate it?
The gift Luo Yan for Lu Deming and his wife took a lot of time.What Lu Deming gave was "The Analects of Analects" copied by Luo Yan himself. This book brings together the thoughts of many people in later generations. Here, Luo Yan selected notes that are more suitable for Lu Deming's style, and added his own thoughts. The book in my mind was edited again.This is a study report to Lu Deming.

As for Mrs. Lu's gift, Luo Yan, who was blind as a gift, finally decided on the decorations.After walking through many jade shops, I finally found an ornament carved with pine cranes.After buying this Luo Yan, it is a sigh of relief. I really miss all kinds of nutritional supplements for later generations.

As for the several bachelors in the Literature Museum, the gifts Luo Yan prepared were such things as Xianzhang calligraphy and painting.Anyway, they don't seem to lack anything, and it would be a bit fake to make something that is too precious.

The most important thing is the gift from the little girl Yinger.

After all, she went shopping with her, so Luo Yan naturally couldn't let her find out what was bought for herself.So Luo Yan gave the little girl Yinger a very special gift.

Along the way, I followed Luo Yan to buy a lot of gifts for others, and ate a lot of delicious food while walking.But until she got home, the little girl Yinger hadn't seen Luo Yan prepare a gift for herself.This time, the little girl was a little unhappy.Throwing all the things in his hand to Luo Yan, he walked ahead of Luo Yan with a pout, and ignored Luo Yan.

The two of them walked to the Lu residence silently, one after the other.

After entering Lu's mansion, the little girl Ying'er turned her head and stared fiercely, ran up to Luo Yan with small steps, stomped on Luo Yan hard, and kept muttering: "I'm so mad at you!" .” and ran away.Luo Yan was left alone with numb feet due to pain, and he couldn't throw down the things he was carrying to rub his feet.

After putting away the bought things, Luo Yan will prepare a gift for Yinger.

After getting along for more than half a year, Luo Yan also likes this weird and elf little girl.Originally, I thought about buying some more jewelry or fabrics for the little girl, but I thought that the Lu family must have these things, but the little girl is not old enough to use them.

So Luo Yan thought of making a gift for Yinger himself.

Before Luo Yan used the reason of writing Spring Festival couplets, he bought a few more sheets of colored paper.With the development of hard yellow paper, some people paint the color of the paper, and naturally there are all kinds of colored paper.And some hard yellow paper has the hardness and toughness, which is absolutely fine for origami.

That's right, Luo Yan's gift to Miss Ying'er was an origami wind chime.

In fact, he knows not many origami styles.When chasing girls in the previous life, I also learned to fold thousand origami cranes, hearts and so on.But in addition, Luo Yan also learned a trick, which is to fold lanterns and wind chimes.And now the gift he wants to give Yinger is this.

Compared with things full of love like thousand paper cranes and hearts, wind chimes are the most suitable for this little girl who Luo Yan regards as her younger sister.

Although there is no such a good little bell now, but a beautiful appearance can already make the little girl Yinger happy.

At that moment, Luo Yan started his gift business.

After all, it has been a long time since Luo Yan has been doing origami after returning to the room, until he put all the lanterns into shapes and made the wind chimes, the time has passed.Rubbing his sore eyes, Luo Yan collapsed on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

However, because of going to bed late and waking up early for a long time, the biological clock urged Luo Yan to get up at Chen Shi the next day.After washing up, Luo Yan first wrote several Spring Festival couplets on the door, and then went to Master Lu.Of course, there was no need to go to the study today, Luo Yan went directly to the backyard.

The little girl held a grudge very much, and she still looked very annoyed when she saw Luo Yan now.But Luo Yan couldn't care less about coaxing her, and found Lu Deming, Luo Yan began to ask for instructions on posting Spring Festival couplets.

After all, this has not yet become popular, and it is still necessary to be cautious in posting such a thing on the door of the house rashly.What's more, Luo Yan is just living here, so he still has to ask his teacher for advice, otherwise, it's really going overboard.

Listening to Luo Yan's request, Lu Deming was very open-minded.In his mind, it was nothing more than putting what Meng Chang did on paper, and there was nothing rude about it.What's more, my family's scholarly family is full of spring than writing a few strokes on the big red paper at the door during the New Year.

After agreeing with Luo Yan's idea, Lu Deming will read what Luo Yan wrote next.

As for calligraphy, Master Lu is not worried.My own disciple doesn't know how to practice, but his calligraphy is much better than his own teacher.

Hearing that the teacher agreed, Luo Yan was naturally very happy.He ran back to his room and rolled up the Spring Festival couplets written to the gate of Lu Mansion, then ran to Lu Deming's residence.

After spreading out the Spring Festival couplets on the table, Luo Yan asked his teacher to check them.

The style of the script is official script. In Luo Yan's mind, the official script with the twists and turns of the silkworm's head and swallow's tail is worthy of the mansion of a great Confucian like Lu Deming, because it looks very heavy.Well, in fact, he was committing a crime by thinking so.

As for the content, Luo Yan also did not choose the vulgar couplets of "the world is full of spring and happiness", but took the words from the Confucian classics and put together a pair of couplets.

"Cultivate awe-inspiring spirit from Yanruo thinking, and read unfinished books as what has been done."

"Yan Ruo Si" comes from the first chapter of "Book of Rites", and "Hao Ran Qi" comes from "Mencius Gongsun Chou Shang".As for the completed work and the unfinished book, it is to express the will under the premise of confrontation.

Such a couplet naturally made Lu Deming nod his head.Luo Yan can have such a level, and he can apply what he has learned to his life. As a teacher, he is naturally very pleased.What's more, Luo Yan's ambition in the next league made Lu Deming's own disciple appreciate his efforts all the time.

After reading the entire Spring Festival couplets, Lu Deming ordered his servants to post them on both sides of the gate of Lu Mansion.

For such a new thing, not only the servants of the Lu Mansion felt novelty, but the old master Lu Deming was also quite interested.After the servants came to tell Lu Deming that he had pasted up the couplets, regardless of the cold weather outside, and put on a cloak, Lu Deming asked Luo Yan to help him to the door of his mansion. Looking at the ink stains on the red couplets, Lu Deming stroked them habitually. Beard laughed.

And on the street, many passers-by looked at Lu's novelty and came to watch, so that the housekeeper of Lu had to send two servants to watch it, so as to prevent others from taking these two pieces of paper away.

Many people here know that this is definitely written by Luo Yan.Now Luo Yan's handwriting is worth a lot of money in the calligraphy and painting market.

　Thank you Shadow Greedy Wolf, as always, throw down the reward and then complain about a wave of updates.It was originally agreed to be sent at seven o'clock, but there is no way, the handicap can only be delayed until now, and the second update is after eleven o'clock.Give me some time to finish eating in the middle.The trail went.
