Chapter 305: The puzzle is just an appetizer

A somewhat provocative voice sounded on the left side of the lobby, causing everyone to look at each other, and further down the lobby was a connected area, so many people gathered around, all wondering who the person who spoke was.

Xin Xiran was the first to stand up and said angrily: "Gongyu Bei, if you want to find fault, go out, you are not welcome here." ”

Gong Yubei shrugged his shoulders: "I received the invitation, and the master didn't speak, what is the hurry, Young Master Xin is in a hurry, not to mention that we are all here, and the person who presides over it has not yet appeared, so what does it mean to ask us to wait and wait?"

Xin Xiran remembered that when he was in the academy years ago, this Gong Yubei was always looking for stubble, and he was even more angry in his heart, if it was according to his temper in the past, he would have rolled up his sleeves and pounced directly, at this time he also held back, and hummed: "A bamboo, a screen and a painting here, which place is not the representative of the master's family, just you, a layman, have wasted this elegant scenery in vain, and you have to hold on to people." You are here to drink and eat, not to see people. ”

Gong Yubei was noncommittal, but he smiled and ignored it. At this moment, there was a burst of applause and commotion from the crowd, and everyone looked over, but saw a girl coming out of the inner hall.

The girl was dressed in a green brocade robe, with a long tassel of white silk tied around her waist, and cloud boots on her feet. The black hair is curled high with a cyan ribbon, and only a bamboo hairpin is used to decorate it. A pair of apricot eyes are beautiful, clear but bottomless, gentle but with their own edge.

She was already tall, but now she is wearing men's clothes, her skin is white and beautiful, and she is even more handsome. Although it is dressed in men's clothing, it does not make people feel strange, but it looks pleasing to the eye, as if that body should be worn on a woman. But if you dress up that dress up on other girls, you feel a little indecent.

Of course, it was Yao Xi herself who appeared, she also deliberately dressed up for today, but her hospital uniform was men's clothing, and she felt a little awkward when she was used to wearing women's clothes, so today's dress was not changed to her daughter's skirt, although it was a little unreasonable, but anyway, all the students invited today were classmates in the academy, and everyone also saw her dressed in men's clothes on weekdays, so they didn't think it was strange.

Yao Yan stepped forward with a smile and said, "Since it is a mystery, there must be an answer, Young Master Gongyu is knowledgeable and talented, can't he think of an answer?"

Gong Yubei spread his hands and said: "I was born as a military general, and you let me play this literati game, but it is difficult for some strong people." ”

Yao smiled apologetically: "I thought that the young master of the apartment was both civil and military, but I remembered it wrong, no wonder." ”

Gong Yubei choked on a breath, he was actually deducted from the name of a talented martial artist by Yao Shi in just a few words, but the words still came from his own mouth, making him difficult to argue.

Xin Xiran gloated on the side and said: "Not everyone has that ability, and it is also excellent to be a martial artist." ”

Gong Yubei glared at him and shut up a little stupidly, this time he admitted that he had fallen behind.

Seeing that everyone was gathered in a heap, Yao Xian guessed that it was the effect of Gong Yubei's words just now, so he simply stood in the center and said loudly: "The shop is open today, thank you for coming." The small shopkeeper is meeting friends in Yiwen, and anyone who can answer any question in the store can be free of charge.

Since the young master of Shicai Gongyu has spoken, then I will offer my ugliness today, and the question on the lantern and the wall will be left to you, I will show a question, if someone can answer, the food and wine are free, if there is no one in the half-pillar of incense who can answer, I will give the answer again, how about it?"

Ordinary lantern riddles are actually quite simple, and these literati have long been tired of playing, but just now they have seen the puzzles on the lanterns, and they really have no bottom in their hearts, they want to know what the answer is, and on the other hand, they want to guess by themselves, and they are very conflicted in their hearts.

Yao Shi cleared his throat and said loudly: "Anyway, once upon a time, there was a shop that sold wine, although it was aged and good, but the store was not eye-catching, and the host was not good at words, so it couldn't attract customers, so business has been light. Until one day, a scholar went to ask for a bowl of wine, and after eating, the scholar left a poem on the door of the shop:

A bright moon hangs in the sky, and the lady is talented and Tilian. When you are on the side of the blue wave pool, you will read poetry and books without words.

The scholar left this poem and left, but what is amazing is that the business of this shop is getting better and better, dare to ask you, why is this?"

The crowd began to whisper as if to discuss, and soon, someone said, "Because he is good at calligraphy." ”

Yao smiled and said nothing, but there was a negative meaning in his eyes.

Someone else began: "Because his poems are well written, maybe he is a famous poet." ”

Yao Xi still smiled, "You can think slowly, think while eating, after a stick of incense, if no one knows the answer, I will reveal the answer." When she had finished speaking, she went to the left.

Xin Xiran saw her coming, ran forward and said with a smile: "Excuse me, what's your answer?"

Yao Yan glanced at him, "It's so simple, you should know." ”

"Huh?" Xin Xiran touched his head, "You tell that poem again, why didn't I figure it out." ”

Yao Xian smiled slightly, "That question is an appetizer for them, it's easy to say, it's difficult to say, I believe that someone here already knows the answer, don't talk about the question, I have prepared good things today." ”

As soon as Xin Xiran heard that it was a good thing, her eyes immediately lit up, and she hurriedly pulled Yao Xi's sleeve and sat down, and as soon as she sat down, the other students who were invited also sat down in turn. As soon as the people here were seated, some men came up with trays in turn.

The first thing that was placed on each table was a jar of wine, and then there was a guy holding a wine vessel and placing it in each person's hand in turn, and another person then began to pour wine for each wine vessel.

But when I saw this wine vessel, I don't know whether it was better to call it a wine cup or a wine bowl, not to mention the emerald green of the whole body, and the shape was like a leaf. Ordinary drinking is done with wine cups, which are shaped like leaves, and no one has ever seen them.

"This thing is fresh, I haven't seen it, it's not from Linxi. Wang Zhan took the lead in asking.

Yao Xi just smiled slightly, but Lan Xin behind him couldn't help but interject: "Of course, this is made by our girl herself, each one is unique, you think it is a leaf, but each leaf is different, and even the color is different." ”

As soon as Lan Xin finished speaking, someone held his own wine vessel and compared it with the one next to him, and sure enough, the shapes were different, some were oval, some were palm-shaped, some were lanceolate, in short, there was no duplicate one.

Everyone looked at Yao Xian's expressions a little different, they put down the wine vessel one after another, let the guy pour the wine, and before they could raise their glasses, they heard a wanton indulgent laughter: "Brothers, it's too late, I'll punish myself with three glasses." ”
