    ?

    The so-called country is easy to change, but nature is hard to change.  How much human helplessness has been exhausted.  No matter how you say it, your temper is not so easy to get rid of.

    It is the season of spring and flowers blooming again.  The traditional temple fair festival is coming again.

    On this day, the whole family got up early.  Han Tianjiao's father-in-law and mother-in-law bought a lot of vegetables and were busy preparing lunch at home.  Xiang Jiawei and his friends were chatting in the room.

    The busiest one is Han Tianjiao.  Many people from all over the world came to the temple fair, and the business was surprisingly good.  For a while, the boss is called to start the machine; for a while, the boss is called to check out.  Han Tianjiao took her daughter to roam among the customers, she was extremely busy!

    When it was time for lunch, everyone huddled together in the kitchen and had a hearty lunch.  Chicken, duck, fish, and meat were also served on the dinner table this day.  Except for the Chinese New Year and the holidays, this day is the most extravagant.  Every family wants to invite relatives and friends to visit their home and watch temple fairs.

    Last year, Han Tianjiao invited her parents and friends. This year, because she was busy, her parents didn't want to bother Han Tianjiao. Instead, they went to Han Tianjiao's aunt's house, which was not too far away anyway.  My own family will not care about these.

    The traditional temple fair is held on March 28 every year, and the scale is very grand.  Almost every household in the village was mobilized to participate.  Coupled with the crowds who come from all over to watch the temple fair, it can be said that you can bump into people wherever you go.  I sigh that China's population is really not ordinary, and you can see it at a glance when you come here.

    In the past temple fairs, Han Tianjiao ate at her aunt's house, and then watched the temple fair with her parents.

    I remember that when the temple fair was first launched, Han Tianjiao was already working in the factory.  The factory is not very far from the temple fair village. Most of the factory employees are from the temple fair village, and several of the backbone of the factory are from the temple fair village.  So at that time, most people could ask for leave on the day of the temple fair.

    On that day, Han Tianjiao excitedly asked the factory leader for a half-day leave, and then rode her clumsy truck to her aunt's house.  Before he could enter the village, he was stopped by security personnel with red sleeves on his shoulders.  It is said that there are too many people in the temple fair, and bicycles and other means of transportation are not allowed to ride into the village.

    There was no other way, Han Tianjiao had to find a place to park and lock her bicycle, and walked to her aunt's house.  On the road, hurried footsteps can be seen everywhere.  Everyone walked forward one after another, and occasionally one or two bicycles or motorcycles were stopped and forced to stop on the side of the road.

    Han Tianjiao rushed to the aunt's house in a hurry, and the aunt's house had already started eating.  There were two tables of guests at the aunt's house, including Han Tianjiao's parents and elder brother.  Seeing Han Tianjiao coming, the aunt hurriedly asked Han Tianjiao to sit down beside her for dinner.  After everyone had a lively meal, the elderly relatives and friends brought their own stools and sat on the open space in the alley.

    At this time, both sides of the alley were filled with stools, just waiting for the temple fair to start.  The temple fair usually starts at 1:30 in the afternoon, and after everyone has finished their lunch, they gather in front of Dongyue Temple.

    At this time, the front of Dongyue Temple was full of people, and it was very lively.  Everywhere you can see people who come to pray, fulfill their vows, offer incense, and join in the fun.  Under the smell of incense and smoke, Han Tianjiao squeezed into the front of Dongyue Temple with her aunt and the others.

    Auntie and the others looked around, leaving Han Tianjiao standing by the gate in front of the temple alone.  Han Tianjiao looked into the temple through the small glass hole in the wooden door carved with lace.

    I saw a benevolent and benevolent Bodhisattva sitting in the middle of the temple. It was about two meters high and was dressed in gold, which was very majestic.  Han Tianjiao was so scared that she didn't dare to look at it squarely.  This should be the legendary Emperor Dongyue.  It is said that he protects the people of the Li people on this side.  After casually scanning the Bodhisattvas on both sides, Han Tianjiao still had lingering fears and dared not look directly.  Finally, his eyes rested on the man kneeling in front of Emperor Dongyue.  I saw the man with his upper body shirtless and his lower body wearing a pair of bright red trousers, kneeling devoutly on the futon in front of Emperor Dongyue, burning incense paper in his hand, and muttering words in his mouth.

    On the incense table in front of him are rich offerings and a copper stick about two meters long, called "awl".  Red cloth.  At this time, the shirtless man kept burning incense paper, praying to Emperor Dongyue to bless him from pain when piercing the awl.  It turned out that this person's role was "horse skin", and he had to wear the awl at the corner of his mouth, and he had to walk in front of Emperor Dongyue to clear away the sundries and people on the street first.

    The superstitious saying is: when the ashes of the burning incense paper curl up into the sky, the person who wears the awl will be blessed by Emperor Dongyue at this time, and it will not hurt at all to wear the awl at this time.  Wearing a cone-shaped "horse skin", when a woman is inconvenient every month, he will feel pain, and he will raise his head and glare at the crowd to signal those "unclean" people to be more acquainted??Cheat!  "

    "Miss Boss" The child in her arms kept crying, and the guests kept calling.  Han Tianjiao is really incompetent, one head and two big.  Hugging the crying child, Han Tianjiao couldn't bear to see the child crying like this, so she hurried upstairs and handed the child to her father.

    There are many people on the day of the temple fair and it is very lively.  Han Tianjiao's Internet cafe also got a little bit of light, and there were no empty seats.  A busy day always flies by quickly.  After the mother-in-law came back with her granddaughter after watching the temple fair, she was busy preparing dinner again.  After dinner, relatives and friends bid farewell to each other and went home.

    Only then did Xiang Jiawei have the opportunity to say to Han Tianjiao: "Why are you so ignorant of etiquette?"

    "What?" The second monk Han Tianjiao, who was said, was puzzled, and asked Xiang Jiawei, "What did you say?"

    "What are you talking about! I said you don't understand any etiquette. My friend comes to our house as a guest, only a few times a year, and you refuse to ask you to help bring up the children, really!" Xiang Jiawei accused Han Tianjiao angrily.

    "What? I don't know etiquette!" Han Tianjiao replied in surprise: "You ask me to coax a child whose father can't coax him, how can I coax him? I am too busy with the Internet cafe, and my daughter asked your mother to help me take care of it."  When I went out, you still asked me to help your friend with children? I don¡¯t understand etiquette? Let you play cards with your friends instead of watching Internet cafes for me? My mother doesn¡¯t bring children and my husband didn¡¯t say anything. On the contrary, I¡¯m so busy  People who are busy there are thankless? If I had known, I should have closed for a day, and I went to the temple fair, so no one would say that I don¡¯t understand etiquette.¡±

    Although I didn't go to the temple fair, the business was very hot that day, which just made up for the loss of not being able to go to the temple fair.  It's good now, Han Tianjiao, who was in a good mood, became depressed after hearing Xiang Jiawei's words.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
