Chapter 130: Lantern Riddle Conference
"Brother Huo!"
Cai Wei exclaimed in surprise.
In the dim light, Huo Yuan was wearing a white mink velvet green lotus ground color brocade face, with a light smile of spring breeze and rain, and slowly walked in their direction, and during the action, the jade pendant hanging from his waist gently hit the aromatherapy ball, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
At this time, Huo Yuan walked calmly and calmly, but his heart was like a huge wind urging waves, and he had already set off an uproar.
Finally saw her again, after not seeing her for many days, he finally understood what it meant to not see her for a day, such as every three autumns, and finally understood what it meant to be unforgettable lovesickness. He deeply experienced the taste of not being able to eat, not sleeping well, restless, and unable to give up!
Therefore, after hearing that she had left Qingyun Town and that her family had entered Beijing, he decisively left Bianzhou and hurried all the way to the capital.
When passing through Lin'an, he suddenly thought that the Mu family had many children, and they were all lively at an age, if there were enough lively things, they would definitely stay and watch.
Therefore, he deliberately found the prefect of Lin'an and ordered him to make this year's lantern festival more lively, while he stayed here and waited for the rabbit.
Sure enough, the sky lived up to his wishes and finally waited for him.
Walking over step by step, Huo Yuan tried his best to maintain his elegant attitude and not let others see his excitement.
"Yo! Whose Kunlun slave is this? Good life, good face. ”
His unique clear voice sounded, and he seemed to be in a very good mood, and as soon as he stood in front of Cai Wei, he smiled and teased her.
Cai Wei touched the Kunlun Nu mask on top of her head, and laughed along.
While talking and laughing, Huo Yuan had already turned to Du Shi and bowed his hand to Du Shi modestly and politely.
"Hello Mrs. Mu, the younger generation is polite!"
Du Shi hurriedly returned the salute, and said: "Don't dare to be, Huo Gongzi is too polite, and he hasn't had time to thank Huo Gongzi for his New Year's gift, but he accepted Huo Gongzi's gift, and the little woman is sincerely afraid, thank you here!" ”
Du Shi sincerely thanked Huo Yuan, if it weren't for the hundred-year-old ginseng he sent, she wouldn't be able to say what it would be like at this time!
Huo Yuan smiled clearly: "It's just a small courtesy, not a respect, so that Mrs. can laugh." ”
Du Shi hurriedly said: "Huo Gongzi is too modest, how can he say that he is a thin gift with such a heavy gift?" To tell you the truth, the clumsy husband was injured a few days ago, thanks to the old ginseng given by Huo Gongzi? ”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? ”
Huo Yuan's smile faded suddenly, and he turned to Cai Wei and said, "What's the matter?" Why was my uncle injured? Is it good now? If it's not good, I know the most famous doctor in Lin'an Mansion, can I go and treat my uncle? ”
Cai Wei smiled: "Thank you Brother Huo, my father is now very good, and he is guessing lantern riddles in the crowd over there!" ”
Huo Yuan listened, raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw Mu Zhongqing standing in the crowd, and he didn't know what he was shaking his head and chanting?
Then he smiled and said: "No wonder Wei'er's riddle guessing is accurate, it turns out to be quite a father's style, today's lantern riddle conference, your father and daughter must win the championship." ”
Being praised by him like this, Cai Wei was a little embarrassed, and said with a little shyness: "I guess, all seven-year-old children can guess it, which makes Brother Huo laugh!" ”
Huo Yuan smiled gently: "Where and where, according to me, the two lantern riddles that Wei'er guessed are difficult to guess, it is because you are too smart to guess them, such as the lantern riddles on this rabbit lamp, I can't guess the reason." ”
As he spoke, he looked at the rabbit lamp in Wu'er's hand and thought about it.
Cai Wei was amused by him, and said: "Brother Huo, don't be humble, if you can't even guess this, I'm afraid that my little brother will despise you!" ”
When Huo Yuan heard this, he looked at the little baby in Du Shi's arms, and sure enough, when he saw the little baby wearing a tiger head hat, he looked disdainful, as if he had seen some idiot, and twisted the tender little face aside with disdain.
Self-defeating, Huo Yuan had a black line, and hurriedly replied: "I thought about it and guessed it, the first riddle should not be the day of the sun!" ”
Cai Wei bowed her head and said: "Exactly! ”
Seeing that the look of disdain on Wu'er's little face eased slightly, Huo Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the lantern of the Erlang God and said, "This mystery should be a bee, right?" ”
Cao Jin said with a smile: "Although Ziyou guessed correctly, the riddle was guessed by Miss Mu first, and the lantern and color head should belong to her, and you guessed it in vain." ”
Saying that, he ordered the little maid to bring the gold coin and give it to Cai Wei's sister and brother, and personally took off the lantern of Erlang God and handed it to Cai Wei's hands.
"This is the color head that guessed the lantern riddle, take it!"
Cao Jin handed over a colorful brocade box and said to Cai Wei with a smile.
Cai Wei took the brocade box, and when she opened it, she saw that there was a bead flower decorated with dozens of pale pink pearls, layered on top of each other, very beautiful.
Women are born with no resistance to beautiful clothes, and Cai Wei has never had such good jewelry, the only piece of jewelry is the green bamboo hairpin that she wears on her head now, carved and polished by her father.
After seeing this beaded flower, she couldn't help but show a look of love, twisted the beaded flower, and looked at it again.
Du Shi excused himself and said: "It's just a lantern riddle, why bother you to spend so much, please take back the gift, it didn't break her!" ”
Cao Jin smiled and said in his heart, the pearl flower was painstakingly given to your daughter by Huo Yuan's kid, how can you take it back? If he really took it back, it would be strange if Huo Yuan didn't rush with him!
"This lottery head was set up a long time ago, and it will never be withdrawn, besides, this is not worth anything in the first place, compared to Huo Gongzi's generous lottery head, it is really insignificant!"
When Cai Wei heard this, she suddenly became interested, and asked with burning eyes: "Where is Brother Huo's riddle?" I'm going to guess, by the way, what big prize did you set up? Don't be a fan of it! ”
Huo Yuan smiled warmly and said, "My lantern riddle is on Ling Zun's side, if Wei'er is interested, you might as well go and take a look together." ”
"Yes, yes!"
Cai Wei nodded again and again, greeted her mother and younger brothers and sisters, and walked towards her father together.
Huo Yuan followed closely, his smiling ink eyes staring at someone wearing the Kunlun Nu mask in front of him for a moment.
Cai Wei walked to her father's side with great interest, at this time, Mu Zhongqing had already guessed two lantern riddles, and was discussing the most difficult one with everyone.
The riddle is set on a huge glass lamp, and it is a seven-character quatrain.
As soon as you enter the Xichuan water, you can type a word
The author of this lantern riddle hangs noodles with self-composed seven-character verses, which are harmonious and harmonious; Take the river water as the theme, the scene is clear and beautiful, and the realm is beautiful. It's just that the answer to the riddle is a little difficult to guess, Mu Zhongqing and many literati have been discussing it again for a long time, and no one has guessed the riddle.
Cai Wei was also attracted by this mystery, forgot about Huo Yuan, stared at the huge glass lamp, bit her lip, frowned and thought hard.
She didn't know how amazing she was in Huo Yuan's eyes with biting her lip and thinking about it, and how attractive she was to him, he couldn't take his eyes off!
It took a lot of effort for him to take his affectionate eyes off her and walk up to Mu Zhongqing to greet him.
When Mu Zhongqing saw him, he was taken aback at first, and then laughed cheerfully and talked to him.
Huo Yuan wants to hug the beauty, so he naturally wants to have a good relationship with his future father-in-law, he walks outside all the year round, is well-informed, and is a sociable person, so when Mu Zhongqing talks, he deliberately picks up some topics he likes to say, and the two quickly talk happily!
As he was talking, he suddenly heard Cai Wei on the side shouting: "There is!" ”
The scream was so loud that the two of them were startled, and Mu Zhongqing reprimanded lightly: "Wei'er, don't you shout rudely, don't you see that Huo Gongzi is still there?" How can I not understand the rules. ”
Huo Yuan hurriedly smiled: "It's okay, it must be Wei'er who remembered something difficult to think of, that's why it's like this." ”
Cai Wei nodded again and again: "Exactly, people have thought of the mystery of this lantern riddle!" ”
Mu Zhongqing was surprised: "How did you come up with it, what is the mystery, tell me about it to my father." ”
When the riddlers on the side heard Cai Wei's words, they all gathered around, looking humble and asking for advice.
"Girl, tell everyone about it, let us also have a long experience!"
"Yes, girl, speak quickly!"
Cai Wei smiled slightly and said, "The riddle of the lantern riddle is a single button glyph. The riddle first makes a word into the Western character, and becomes a unitary, the word is ingenious, and there is no trace; And with the word water in the horizontal column of the Sichuan word, and turned into a state, the flat word is smart, and the chemical industry is natural. The unitary and the state are combined, and the text is out, which is the word remuneration. ”
When everyone heard this, they all suddenly realized, and praised Cai Wei's intelligence, and urged Cai Wei to write down the mystery quickly, and sent the little girl to send it in, so that the person who came out of the mystery could see it.
Mu Zhongqing was very proud when she saw her daughter with such a long face, but she humbly said to everyone again and again: "I have won the award, I have won the award..." ”
While writing down the riddle, Cai Wei sincerely admired and said: "This riddle does not wave amazing pens, does not need flowery words, and it means that it naturally rhymes." Savor it carefully, you can know that the words have fallen, the words have ingenuity, the famous hands make riddles, and there is always no rate of pen and ink. I just don't know who did it? ”
Huo Yuan said with a smile: "Wei'er praised it falsely, she was clumsy to be able to get Wei'er's blue eyes, Huo is really ashamed!" ”
Cai Wei exclaimed: "You came up with the lantern riddle!" ”
Huo Yuan smiled and said, "Exactly! ”
As soon as these words came out, the people who gathered around to watch the excitement all cast admiring eyes, this profound mystery, everyone thought that it was done by an old scholar who had gone through the world and experienced the vicissitudes of life, who would have thought that it was from the hands of such a young man with outstanding elegance and Zhilan Yushu, and they couldn't help but praise him.
"Childe is really ingenious and smart!"
"I wonder if Childe can be famous now? If you participate in this year's imperial examination, you will definitely be able to win the title of champion......"
Huo Yuan smiled humbly, and said: "Everyone has won the award, and they dare not be ...... if they win."
Mu Zhongqing is a person who reads poetry and books, and he should like humble and polite young people the most, he thought.
Cai Wei heard that it was Mu Zhongqing's mystery, and couldn't help but look at him impressed, and after praising a few words, she said with a smile: "I remember Uncle Cao said that Brother Huo's color head is a big deal, but I don't know what it is, can I say it, let me be happy in advance!" ”
Huo Yuan said with a smile: "I also remember that Wei'er once said, I'm afraid that the color head set up below is not something you like, so it's better to take this opportunity to pick one yourself, no matter what it is, no matter how much it is worth, as long as Wei'er says it, Huo will definitely give it away!" ”
What he hoped in his heart was that Cai Wei would ask him to participate in the trip, because the trip he had prepared for her was almost ready, and he could make a final decision just when she went.
It's a pity that the space of Cai Wei has returned to its original state, and the crops planted in the soil by Ma Kai have disappeared, and there is not even a single ginseng beard. She has long since dismissed the idea of joining the line!
After getting Huo Yuan's promise, Cai Wei's big eyes rolled a few times, thought of it, and said with a smile: "In this case, the color I want is, please Brother Huo allow me to buy back the five hundred catties of cumin at the original price!" ”
Huo Yuan said happily: "Okay! ”
When Cai Wei heard this, she smiled and thanked silently: "Thank you Brother Huo for your success..." ”
Huo Yuan looked at her crescent-like smile, and said softly: "It's a trivial matter, why worry about it, besides, this is what Wei'er deserves to guess the lantern riddle!" ”
Cai Wei smiled: "Anyway, thank you Brother Huo, if it weren't for these cumins, I wouldn't know what to do when I arrived in Kyoto!" ”
Cao Jin saw that Huo Yuan's eyes were a little out of shape when he looked at Cai Wei, and he was afraid that Mu Zhongqing and his wife would see the clues, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "It's not an outsider, so don't thank you anymore, it's better for everyone to guess the lantern riddle together, after guessing, have a few drinks in my restaurant, and get together!" ”
Huo Yuan said: "It's so good, I just don't know if Uncle Mu and Aunt Mo are willing to appreciate the light?" ”
Cao Jin heard that Huo Yuan even called his uncle and aunt, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, thinking that Ziyou would fight for the little girl of the Mu family.
Mu Zhongqing has always liked gentle and polite young people, and when he saw the lantern riddle from Huo Yuan, he appreciated him even more, so he readily agreed.
Because Du Shi and Cao Jin had a business cooperation agreement, he just wanted to take this opportunity to talk to him about the specific matters of cooperation, so he was happy to go with him. The Du family has always put her husband first, Mu Zhongqing agreed, and she naturally would not object, so the matter was settled, and after they guessed the riddles later, they went to Cao Jin's restaurant in Lin'an to eat together!
After the calculation stopped, Cai Wei and Mu Zhongqing began to guess the lantern riddles.
The father and daughter were both masters, and they quickly guessed a lot, and in the end, the family couldn't take the lanterns in their hands, and even Huo Yuan and Cao Jin's hands were full of all kinds of lanterns.
Not surprisingly, Mu Zhongqing became the final winner at this lantern riddle conference. The prefect of Lin'an Mansion enjoyed with the people, and personally handed over the fifty taels of silver set up by the competition to Mu Zhongqing, and encouraged him with a few words, to the effect that he should study hard, strive to win fame as soon as possible, and glorify his ancestors!
After Mu Zhongqing respectfully listened to the prefect's teachings, he came back with fifty taels of silver, and as soon as he saw his wife, he stuffed the bare fifty-two taels of silver ingots into his wife's hand, and said confidently: "Take it, keep it for the future family!" ”
This is the most money he has ever earned in his life, and although there is no shortage of money in the family now, he is still glad that he can do his duty as the head of the family for this family.
Du Shi pushed the money back and said, "You have to be entertained outside, and you have given me all the money, what can you do with it?" It's better to keep it for yourself, I still have money here, if not, I'll ask you again. ”
Mu Zhongqing refused, and insisted on stuffing the ingot of silver back into his wife's hand: "If your husband will make money in the future, don't worry about your wife, you should keep this silver for your family!" ”
Du Shi couldn't resist him, so he had to put away the silver, although his mouth was disgusted, the expression on his face was full of happiness.
"I asked you to keep some silver to keep around, but you refused, if you slapped your face outside one day, you will regret it!"
Mu Zhongqing was counted down by his wife, and he was not angry, but only looked at his wife's delicate face with satisfaction, and his heart was warm.
Cai Wei looked at the loving appearance of her parents on the side, and couldn't help but yearn for it, if one day, she also became a parent, her husband could be like her father, do his best for their small family, take every penny he earned home, and keep it for daily use, she will be satisfied!
