044 Guessing the riddle
Linlang Street was overcrowded. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
By the time Xia Nan and the others arrived, it was already crowded.
Xia Ruijie saw that his younger sisters were all delicate and delicate, and a pair of sword eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, and took them to the shop on the street to buy masks, and asked them to choose one by one.
Xia Ying's eyes lit up, and she fell in love with a strange-like mask that looked like a unicorn and had edges and corners.
This mask looked scary, but Xia Ying insisted, Xia Ruijie couldn't cry or laugh, so he could only follow her.
Xia Nan chose an ordinary butterfly-shaped mask, but the corners of the mask's eyes were shuttled with red threads, like slightly raised corners.
The other sisters also chose masks, and Xia Ruijie then took a bronze monster mask and paid for it.
As soon as Xia Ying put on the mask, she walked around unscrupulously.
The streets were full of people, and countless people were wearing masks on their faces, and no one could tell who it was.
As soon as Xia Ying picked up Xia Nan, she squeezed into a crowded place.
Some snacks along the way will be in your pocket.
They ate only a small piece of each, and let the maidservants behind them take the rest.
The maid brought out by Xia Ying was Liuyun, and the ...... brought out by Xia Nan It's the moon.
Baoyue grows strong and can eat, if she encounters any unexpected circumstances, she can also be a thug, and this situation is best to bring her out.
Xia Ying also stuffed things into Baoyue's hands, every time she stuffed it, Baoyue would always look at her with resentful eyes, every time she wanted to say a dissatisfied word, Xia Ying would always stuff a candied fruit or a piece of pastry into her mouth in a timely manner, Baoyue was suddenly stuffed speechless, and could only look at Xia Ying more resentfully.
And the latter always laughs heartily, and the clear laughter has become a unique natural sound in the bustling city.
Suddenly, Xia Ying was attracted by the crowd gathered in front of her, so she pulled Xia Nan over.
Before I arrived, I heard a gong beating, and someone shouted, "Come to guess the lantern riddles during the Lantern Festival, the riddles are difficult and high, if anyone can answer, they will return the prize." ”
The stall owner's shouting attracted the attention of countless people, and Xia Ying pulled Xia Nan to finally squeeze in front of the crowd.
I saw three vertical wooden cards in front of me, all of them are auspicious patterns, each wooden card has a red paper pasted on it, the red paper covers the wooden card, and the wooden card is written on the riddle, the answer to this riddle is behind the wooden card, also covered with a red sticker.
Guessing the riddle is very simple, if anyone guesses correctly, there will be a corresponding reward to take.
Xia Ying came to her senses and asked, "I don't know if this guess is correct, but what is the reward?" ”
Hearing Xia Ying's question, some people next to him who also wanted to guess the lantern riddle also came to their senses and asked.
"Yes, you're here, what's the reward for guessing right?"
When the stall owner heard this, his dark and honest face smiled, but his small eyes were full of essence.
"Lantern riddles are difficult and easy, and the rewards are big and small. If you guess a simple lantern riddle, you get a piece of osmanthus cake, such a lantern riddle, there are ten questions, and there are ten copies of osmanthus cake. The more difficult lantern riddles, there are three, the difficulty increases, the first prize is a colorful lantern, the second prize is a lantern carved with Pisces playing beads, and the third prize is this pot of orchids. You can see it here. ”
After the stall owner finished speaking, the crowd exploded instantly.
I saw that the stall owner pointed to the place, placed a delicate multicolored lantern, as the name suggests, colorless, the color is magnificent and bright, all of a sudden it catches people's attention, many little ladies present were taken away from their eyeballs.
Many people are interested in lanterns, but they are less interested in lanterns.
"Don't underestimate this lantern, this lantern has its own special features." The stall owner smiled and took down the lantern with a crooked eyebrow.
Everyone followed his movements and saw that the lantern was carved with the appearance of Pisces playing with beads, which was vivid, but although the carving was exquisite, it was not as amazing as the lantern.
But when the stall owner lit the wick in the lantern, he saw the firelight swaying, and the pisces carved outside actually moved slowly, and the two competed for the jewel in their mouths, which was vivid and interesting!
Seeing this, the stall owner blew out the lights and looked at everyone with a smile.
The first two things are so eye-catching, in comparison, the third kind of spider plant is much more ordinary, and many people have not understood why this pot of spider plant can be placed in the position of the first prize.
Someone immediately asked questions.
The stall owner still smiled, and waited until everyone was full of curiosity, and then said.
"This pot of orchids is a spider plant from across the ocean from the South Seas, and it is said that it was specially cultivated by a florist who specializes in orchid cultivation there, and produces an orchid with a unique fragrance."
The orchid from the South Seas instantly attracted the curiosity of many people.
Nanyang is far away from Tanglin, you need to cross the ocean to get there, it is said that there is completely different from Tanglin here, there are strange things that Tanglin does not have.
Although the spider plant is peculiar, if you are not a lover of orchids, you are more inclined to lanterns and lanterns.
Xia Ying grabbed Xia Nan's sleeve today, "Nan'er, have you seen it, I want each of these three things!" But what I want most is that pot of spider plants! ”
Of course, she knew that Xia Ying loved orchids, and everyone in the Hou Mansion knew it, especially for orchids that came from across the ocean, she naturally wanted it even more.
"Big brother, you must help me later! You read a lot of books, you can definitely guess it! ”
Xia Ruijie stood beside the two girls, looking at the strange mask in the shape of a lin, this distorted mask face was facing him, but he wanted to laugh inexplicably, and finally nodded.
The riddle began.
The stall owner tore off the first red sticker, revealing the riddle on it.
No feet and no hands, wearing goosebumps. If anyone touches it, he is so frightened that he hurries away - (beats an animal)
As soon as this riddle came out, Xia Ying's eyes lit up instantly and she raised her hand.
The stall owner smiled, "This girl, you can raise your hand the fastest, I don't know what your answer is?" ”
Xia Ying shouted, "No hands and feet, wearing goosebumps, such a thing, there is only a snake." ”
As soon as her words fell, someone next to the stall owner turned over the wooden sign and tore off the red sticker, and the answer on it was a snake.
The stall owner personally delivered a hot osmanthus cake to Xia Ying.
"Congratulations to this girl for guessing the first riddle of the year, and I wish you all the best this year, all your wishes come true, and everything is easy."
Xia Ying stretched out her hand to take the osmanthus cake, looked at the remaining riddles, and strengthened her confidence.
The person next to him, who also knew the answer but was robbed of the opportunity by Xia Ying, whispered a few words, but didn't say anything more.
"Let's take a look at the next one."
There are people who can't keep up with the ground, green leaves and white flowers, wandering everywhere, and home everywhere in the world. (Guess a plant)
