Chapter 45: Guess the lantern riddle
Out of the Lu house, through a street, the main street is headed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoJiang Shufang happened to come out of the green alley, and the maid Xiaoyue followed her arrogantly.
"That's a coincidence." Chang Di bent the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"What a coincidence, I'll wait for you." Jiang Shufang said, holding Chang Di's arm, "She and the eldest sister have already gone out, and I am waiting for you." β
Ziying happily distributed a string of sugar gourds to her: "Sister Fang, please eat sugar gourds." β
Jiang Shufang was overjoyed, and took it with a smile: "Ziying is so sensible, sister, thank you for the sugar gourd." β
Ziying grinned and took a step back to Lu Shu's side.
Lu Shu ate the candy man and asked, "Ziying, why are you so sticky to me this time, regardless of your central fish?" β
Ziying "cut", gave Lu Shu a roll of his eyes, and said: "I can't stop your mouth if I have food, waste my master's money, and return it to me." β
Lu Shu forgot to bring money when he went out, and he bought it with Ziying's money bag.
Lu Shu looked frightened, but said with a smile: "Na, return you." She shamelessly returned the sugar man stained with her own saliva, and said, "I still have it in my stomach, but I can't pay you back, if you wantβ"
Mr. Chuan greeted Lu Shu's head with a fan, and he said slightly angrily: "It's not naΓ―ve, it's more real than the baby." "Evil is not disgusting.
"Hmph." Lu Shu's eyes widened, and he took another road with a sugar gourd in his mouth, and Ziying immediately followed.
"What are you doing with me?"
Ziying grabbed the corner of her clothes, "I'll go where you go." β
Lu Shu said with a wicked taste: "I'll go to the house with a wide face, will you go?" β
The big wide face and mustache are all Liu Xuan's nicknames.
"Go, why not? Master, I'm afraid of him. Ziying pinched her face, plucked up her courage, and killed Lu Shu.
Jiang Shufang pulled Chang Di and walked side by side, turned his head sideways and whispered in Chang Di's ear, "Is something wrong with your family?" β
Chang Di replied: "No." β
"Why is Yang Yu sad, I thought there was some trouble in your Lu family." Jiang Shufang muttered.
Maybe it's a real character, Jiang Shufang would actually say this in front of the Lu family.
"It's nothing, it's just that her birthday was disturbed, and she was unhappy."
Chang Di lightly brushed it over, but Jiang Shufang said: "Also, now that Zhao Chu is a big official in Xianyang, how can the Lu family have any trouble." β
Chang Di only smiled, not knowing how to answer, so he didn't answer.
Walking to the main street, there are many hawkers, all kinds of games and food, and Chang Di takes a fancy to a crimson double-petaled lotus lantern set out by the vendors.
"Little brother, how much does this lamp cost, I want to buy it."
The little brother who sold the lantern smiled honestly: "Miss Changdi, I don't buy this lantern." β
"If you don't sell it, what are you going to do when you hang it out?" Xiaoyue also likes the lantern, and can't help but feel annoyed with the little brother who sells the lantern.
The little brother suddenly looked aggrieved and asked Jiang Shufang for help: "Miss Jiang San, you have to judge for me." β
Chang Dihu turned her head to look at Jiang Shufang suspiciously, and she said with a smile: "On the seventh day of the seventh month of July in our Yangzhen, there are prizes for guessing lantern riddles, and the prizes are only given, not sold." β
Chang Di made it clear, and asked the little brother to take off the lantern and carefully look at the silk strip hanging at the bottom of the lamp.
Chang Di held the silk strip and muttered to himself.
ββThousands of hands are raining, and the plum season is full of red.
"Flowers?" Satsuki asked.
Yang Yu bit his lip and whispered behind Chang Di, "It should be." β
Jiang Shufang smiled: "June flowers." β
Chang Di looked at the lantern riddle and realized that she didn't seem to have seen the acacia flowers bloom this year, and she had only seen it once in the backyard of the Xu family. Acacia flowers are not suitable for the climate of Surabaya, only Xianyang has them, and she will be satisfied if she can see them once in Xu's house.
A delicate voice came unkindly: "How stupid are you, you can't even guess the riddles!" β
Xu Jiaojiao?
Chang Di looked towards the lively place, Xu Jiaojiao and Jiang Shuyun walked over from the crowd and followed their respective personal maids.
Jiang Shuyun is dressed in a noble and dignified manner, and Xu Jiaojiao is... Bright and delicate, there is the innocence and loveliness of a girl, and the charm and charm of a young woman.
Chang Di's eyes narrowed, his lips squirmed slightly, and he turned his face sideways to look at the two people.
"Sister Changdi." Jiang Shuyun smiled and nodded to Chang Di to say hello.
Chang Di bowed his knees respectfully in return.
Jiang Shuyun hurriedly stopped: "You don't need so many courtesies, it's all a family, isn't it Shu Fang." β
Jiang Shufang was dragged onto her eldest sister's thief ship, and said with a wry smile: "Yes, a family." β
Chang Di hooked his lips and smiled, and stood up straight.
She didn't want to salute at all, how could the mayor's wife and the adopted daughter of a small household be a family.
Xu Jiaojiao was dressed in a goose-yellow pleated skirt with a crossed collar and a top, and her face was delicate and charming.
In fact, if Xu Jiaojiao had not been spoiled by Xu County Ling and Mrs. Xu, she would have been an extremely smart woman, and then marry a good person and live a happy life.
But now, Xu Jiaojiao has no turning back.
"Miss Xu is smart, so tell me, what is the mystery?" Chang Di smiled lightly, and his voice was very soft.
That's right, she likes the lotus lantern, but there is no need to fight with others to grab it, Xu Jiaojiao likes it, and it doesn't hurt to give it to her.
Anyway, Lu Shu, who didn't deal with Xu Jiaojiao, was not there.
Xu Jiaojiao strode forward arrogantly, pulled the silk strip from the tip of Changdi's fingers, and looked at it.
"Isn't this a lotus?" Xu Jiaojiao looked up proudly, as if she had solved the most difficult problem in the world, and she was very proud.
Jiang Shufang held back a smile and looked at Chang Di with a look of hard work.
Chang Di's heart did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to eat the sesame candy made by Mrs. Jiang herself.
Yang Yu opened his big eyes and asked the little brother, "Is it a lotus?" β
Xu Jiaojiao was notorious, and the little brother didn't want to offend her, so he said: "Miss Xu, you ignored the first half of the sentence and only considered the second half of the sentence." β
Jiang Shuyun reminded: "Jiaojiao, you seem to have really guessed wrong. β
Xu Jiaojiao's face turned pale, and she refused to admit it: "How can there be, it's obviously a lotus." β
Thousands of hands are raining, and the ground is red in June.
The plum season is what it looks like in June and July. The lotus flowers in June do have a red variety, but they are not common, and the common lotus flowers are white.
Chang Di looked at the silk strip again and said to the little brother: "It's an acacia flower, right?" β
The little brother clapped his hands happily: "Yes, yes, it's the acacia flower." β
Xu Jiaojiao was dissatisfied, stepped forward and twisted his hand, and shouted: "How can it be a Hehuan flower, you have colluded with the Lu family." β
The little brother shouted and said, "It's true, it's an acacia flower, not a lotus flower." β
How can the riddle in the lotus lantern be a lotus tweed, and the store is not stupid, setting up a simple puzzle, which cheapens others.
Jiang Shufang took two steps and read: "Thousand hands, filament." Although the double-petaled lotus has many petals, and there are lotus varieties with a thousand hands and double petals, it does not meet the filament. β
"And it's raining." Chang Di answered and said, "On a rainy day, the lotus will still be in full bloom." And the acacia flowers will be beaten to the ground by the rain, and the fields will be full of red. β
Therefore, Xu Jiaojiao lost this game.
