A piece of Japanese incense

At this fresh moment of the first light of morning, with the breeze of the branches and the dawn, she got up early. She was wearing a long dress as light as water, and her figure was like a willow branch in the breeze, graceful and agile. She carefully hung a bunch of fresh green wormwood on the door lintel, and the fragrance of the wormwood overflowed. According to legend, it can drive away evil and protect health.

After hanging the mugwort, Zhi Yihe went back to the room, where her good friend Yu Yi came to visit. The two smiled at each other, then sat side by side at the table and began to twist the colorful five-color threads. Their fingertips danced lightly, like butterflies flying through flowers, and soon, one by one, the delicate five-color threads appeared before their eyes, with bright colors and auspicious meanings.

Zhi Yihe and Yu Yi decided to give the five-colored threads to the guards to thank them for their hard work day after day. The guards tied the five-colored threads on their wrists, and the colorful threads swirled around their strong wrists, adding infinite joy to the festival.

At this moment, suddenly, a burst of clear, pleasant, energetic laughter floated into the house like a warm spring breeze. The sound seemed to carry the fragrance of sunshine and flowers, making people feel happy. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a figure walking in with brisk steps. It was none other than the man named Hefeng.

Hefeng's face was filled with a bright smile, and the laughter was as loud and hearty as a silver bell, echoing throughout the room. He laughed and teased, "Haha, Liming, the sun hasn't even risen yet, and you've woken up so early? This is really beyond my expectation! You're not like this on weekdays, is there something special that makes you eager to start a new day?" After saying that, his bright eyes flashed with curiosity and teasing, staring at Liming closely, as if trying to see some clues from the other's expression.

Upon hearing this, Zhi Yihe pretended to be angry, her beautiful eyes rolling around, and she said coquettishly: "You naughty boy, how dare you step into my boudoir without permission!" After that, she casually threw a flower bag filled with spices, which drew an elegant arc in the air and landed right in Hefeng's arms.

The spices in the flower sac exuded an intoxicating fragrance, like smoke and fog, filling the entire room. Hefeng closed his eyes slightly and took a deep breath of the wonderful aroma, as if he was intoxicated by the rich fragrance. A satisfied smile appeared on his handsome face.

"What are you so busy about?" He Feng took the sachet and threw the meat into the air. Fuguier flew out like lightning, chasing the meat flying in the air.

Seeing this, Zhi Yihe couldn't help but smile. She tied an exquisite Dragon Boat Festival knot around Hefeng's waist with her soft hands and whispered, "This knot contains the essence of herbs that can drive away evil spirits. I wish you peace and safety without disasters." The breeze blew gently, blowing up the hair in front of her forehead, adding a bit of gracefulness.

Hefeng smiled without saying anything. He opened his arms and let Zhi Yihe tie the colorful silk thread for him.

"What is this?" Hefeng raised his eyes, sparkling with tenderness.

His eyes were deep, as if he could see into people's hearts, but they just passed by lightly in the end, leaving a hint of ambiguity.

Zhi Yihe whispered slowly, "This is a five-colored longevity rope. It cannot be broken or thrown away. When the first rain falls after the Dragon Boat Festival, you should untie it and put it in the water to get rid of bad luck and bring good fortune."

Hearing this, He Feng smiled brightly. He lowered his head and gazed at the colorful rope in his hand, with endless love in his eyes. Then, he stretched out his slender and white fingers and gently stroked the colorful rope, his movements were gentle, like a spring breeze blowing across the water.
