𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 :

Lily has always been confident and charismatic, able to charm anyone with just a few words. She is exceptionally loyal to her family and friends, but can be a tad too proud at times which can put a strain on her relationships. She has a tendency to be blunt when stressed and is extremely teasing to people in general. She hates to see people treat her friends or family badly and is extremely protective of them.

𝐛𝐢𝐨 :

Born into a family expecting greatness from every child, Lily was surely no exception. She grew up surrounded by intelligent people in all their shapes and was nurtured into the person entering the wizarding world. Whilst her father wanted her to join his house as her elder brother had she instead joined her mother in the snake den.

She was quite content in an ordinary life, following her family's footsteps and one day taking charge of her grandfathers company after her schooling. She couldn't have foreseen the tumultuous academic upbringing she'd get as she entered school with the boy who lived.

Lily tried her best to integrate with every house knowing that cunning and ambition alone could only take you so far, she wanted allies friends in all houses. She'd remain neutral as her family had for generations and she'd not only survive these perilous times but thrive

打鐵花 (da2tie3hua1; struck iron fireworks) is a traditional folk firework that began in Henan and Shanxi, first arising in Queshan county, Henan and later circulating through the whole country. It had first appeared during the Northern Song dynasty, and was most popular during the Ming and Qing dynasties.

For Queshan struck iron fireworks, a two-layer pergola is built and covered with willow branches for performances, under which the molten iron is struck up with two willow sticks to create a rain of fire.

[eng by me + edited an ad out]

(On top of the information in the video, I have some more about its recent history under the cut.)

*Also, a note about one of the subtitles: I realized later that "going into battle without a shield" actually just meant going shirtless. I was only confused about this phrasing while translating because she didn't go shirtless, although that is for obvious reasons

Queshan struck iron fireworks had almost been lost before Yang Jianjun unearthed it again in 1988. It had almost died out in the early years of the Republic of China being established, after which there had only been three performances until 1988: 1952, 1956, 1962. Yang Jianjun had seen the 1956 performance as a 7-8 year old and later on as the director of a cultural centre, began digging up the skill and its history. In the process, he became an apprentice to Li Wanfa, who had been the last head of the Queshan Struck Iron Fireworks Society. He practised with sand and water, learning of its historical origin, its ancestral inheritors, craftsmanship and performance arts, but didn't touch the real thing until 1988. Through Yang Jianjun's efforts and investment, the first struck iron fireworks performance in more than 25 years took place in Nanshan Square (then a deserted area) in Queshan county.

Queshan struck iron fireworks are different from other struck iron fireworks in that it requires a wide area to perform, whereas others only needed a wall or could be hit straight up into the air, and it costs much more money to set up.

The names of inheritors are difficult to trace, and can only be traced back to the Qing dynasty during the Qianlong period, making Yang Jianjun a sixth-generation inheritor, and Jiang Xunqian (OP) the first woman and a seventh-generation inheritor.
