Under the guidance of the team members, the grandparents assembled the lantern step by step, winding, splicing, rotating, threading and other steps in an orderly and orderly manner, and carefully and carefully perfected the frame of the lantern. When encountering more difficult steps, they will communicate with each other and help, and after a while, one by one, the festive lanterns are ready. "I hope that in the new year, the country will be prosperous, the people will live and work in peace and contentment, everyone will be happy, and we old fellows will be safe and healthy, free from illness and disaster. Grandma Wu happily held the lantern and offered her best wishes for the New Year.
