088 What medicine is in the gourd?_2

The Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan Festival, is a very important holiday. During the day, you wouldn't notice anything special, and everything seems as usual, with street vendors selling sweet dumplings and lanterns. But at night, it's a different story—the shops that normally close before dinner stayed open for business. Moreover, there were even more vendors lining the streets, selling lanterns, trinkets, sweet cakes, candied fruits, and sugar figurines.

If it were a regular day, these items would certainly draw a crowd. But this time, on the Lantern Festival, almost everyone was drawn to the Fuman Building instead.

In the large open space in front of Fuman Building, ten large square tables had been set up to form a stage since the afternoon, drawing the curiosity of passersby. Other shops snorted at this, thinking it was the same old trick of setting up a stage on the Lantern Festival to attract customers, a tactic used for many years now.
