Chapter 280: The Red Line of the Lantern

This wordless lantern riddle, everyone can't even understand the riddle, let alone guess the riddle. When everyone saw him holding the pen, they knew that there must be an answer, and seeing that Miss Zhiqing's third riddle was about to be broken, everyone suddenly became excited.

Lin Wanrong handed the note to the deacon and said, "Please read it again." ”

The deacon picked up the note and read it aloud: "--Lost-way-know-return-"

The crowd listened to these four words, but they did not understand what they meant. This time, the deacon also learned to be clever, and hurriedly said, "May I ask how many words to guess this time?" ”

Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "The first word is the answer to this puzzle without anagrams." ”

The deacon, without thinking about it, declared in a loud voice: "The mystery is the mystery of the lost word. ”

Everyone talked about it, and they couldn't figure out why it was a "mystery" word.

Seeing Lin Sanchun's smug appearance, the eldest lady was amused, so she walked over and gently pulled his sleeve and said, "Don't sell it, tell me how you guessed." ”

Lin Wanrong grinned and said, "I said, will you kiss me too?" ”

The eldest lady's heart jumped violently, but her face was flat: "I like to talk nonsense." If you like to talk about it or not, I don't bother to care about you. ”

This girl's cheeks are still a little tender, Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "You must be wondering in your hearts, why this mystery is the word 'lost and returned'." In fact, it is worthless, as long as you can understand this riddle, then you have guessed the riddle. ”

A genius shouted, "This old man. You're not talking nonsense. Guess the lantern riddle, which one can guess the riddle only if you understand the riddle? ”

Lao Tzu likes to talk nonsense, can you manage it, Lin Wanrong laughed and said: "Brother Tai is right." This Miss Zhihe, most of the riddles are difficult on the riddle. Take this question for example. A blank piece of paper with no words, no one can guess what she means. But what is this blank piece of paper? It's a 'mystery' from this young lady. There is no word in the riddle, and the word 'riddle' is removed from the word, isn't it just lost and lost? ”

Everyone suddenly realized that this riddle was guessed like this. It's easy to unravel this mystery. It doesn't take much knowledge, and even everyone thinks they can guess it, but when they are in the game, their thinking is imprisoned and difficult to diverge, so they have these bright fun. This descendant of the Xiao family is really clever, no wonder he said that he had to assess Tian Wenjing first, with his performance in these games, he does have this capital.

"Brother, then please guess Miss Zhiqing's fourth riddle. This year, we must solve the mystery of Miss Zhiqing and fight for us men. A boy from Jinghua Academy shouted loudly. Three of the four riddles have been solved, as long as a little more effort, Miss Zhiqing's myth of the invincibility of the riddle will be completely broken, how can people not be excited?

Lin Wanrong smiled slightly, who is this Miss Zhiqing? It's strange that a group of sons with higher hearts than the sky are willing to surrender to her.

The deacon took off the last lantern of the orange tassel and said, "Tell this son, Miss Zhiqing's lantern riddle has always been three riddles to guess the word and one riddle to guess things." This last lantern should be guessing. Seeing Lin Wanrong's extraordinary performance, he also obediently promoted his identity. Calling it "Childe" up.

Lin Wanrong smiled helplessly: "Guess the thing, guess the thing, even if I can't guess, I believe that the young lady will not blame me." ”

Everyone pinned their hopes on him, and nodded again and again when they heard the words, even if this last riddle could not be guessed, with his ability to break three games in a row. It's more than enough to go to Jinghua College as a teacher.

The deacon took out the last note and read:

"Sit is sitting. Standing is also sitting, walking is also sitting, and lying is also sitting.

Sitting is also standing, standing is also standing, walking is also standing, lying is also standing.

Sitting is also walking, standing is also walking, walking is also walking, and lying is also walking.

Sitting is also lying, standing is also lying, walking is also lying, and lying is also lying.

Oh, Miss Zhiqing said that every sentence of guessing a living creature is a total of four, and guessing two of them is considered a mystery. ”

This chick is cheating, Lin Wanrong snorted, a lantern riddle has to guess four things, when Lao Tzu is a fool, it's not kind.

Everyone in the hall was talking, competing to guess what these four things were.

Lin Wanrong was disdainful in her heart, and she didn't bother to guess, she yawned, slowly walked back to the Xiao sisters, and said softly: "Two young ladies, have you eaten enough?" ”

Yushuang smiled: "How much can we eat?" But it's true that you are hungry and that you are full. ”

Lin Wanrong smiled: "I'm already full." It's not fun to stay here, so let's go downstairs. ”

The eldest lady thought that he couldn't guess the last riddle, so she nodded and said, "That's okay, you have already guessed three, and you can be regarded as having an explanation." ”

The second lady smiled sweetly: "Bad guy, you are really capable." Why don't I go to Jinghua Academy, you can teach me at home, and it will be much better than those gentlemen. ”

Lin Wanrong's face flushed, and he nodded and said, "It's so good." I have some Puzi Longevity Technique, Golden Bottle Plum, and Lamp Grass Monk in my hand, which are enough to teach you for three or five years, so let's take the time to study it. ”

Although the two young ladies didn't know what kind of knowledge he was talking about, such as the Monk of Holding Puzi Longevity, the Golden Bottle Plum, and the Lamp Grass, they had been with him for so long, and when they saw the smile on his face, they already knew what he was thinking, and suddenly their cheeks turned red together, and they took a sip at the same time.

Yushuang's little hand grabbed the tender flesh on his waist, and said shamefully: "If you talk about this nonsense in the future, be careful that I ignore you, and ask my sister to ignore you." ”

Waha, Lin Wanrong shrugged and laughed, the second daughter was even more shy, and the atmosphere was charming and warm for a while, but she put aside the people next to her. The eldest lady wanted to ask him what he was doing in this "Cloud Coming Wonderland", but she saw that he was smiling happily at this time. There was not much decadence, so he put his mind at ease and got up to say goodbye to Tian Wenjing and others.

Everyone was playing the riddle with a word, and when they saw that Miss Xiao had brought that smart and witty subordinate to leave, they were all stunned for a moment. Tian Wenjing hurriedly said, "Miss Xiao." There are still two important people in Jinghua College who were not present, they have a wide range of knowledge and extraordinary knowledge, and they are one of the best talents and beauties in Dahua. When they come, I will introduce you to them. It's never too late to send you away. ”

The eldest lady shook her head and smiled: "It's no longer time to take the liberty of bothering, and after bothering for so long, the little woman really can't go." My sisters and I have just arrived in the capital, and there are still many affairs that have not been handled, so it is not early for us to go home and settle down as soon as possible. My family doesn't know how to be polite, and I offended all of you, so don't blame me. ”

Tian Wenjing saw that the eldest lady had made up her mind, and she knew that she couldn't stay. He performed very well at the beginning of the night, but then he got carried away and lost his manners, and lost the riddle to a subordinate, and he was really a little disappointed in his heart, so he had to laugh a few times.

The people in the hall originally had great hopes for Lin Wanrong, but when they saw that he was leaving at this time, they all thought that he couldn't guess the last riddle, and they were all a little disappointed.

That party encouraged Lin Wanrong several times, applauded him and said to the son of the land: "This brother is like a river below, this is polite." Brother Fang Cai guessed three riddles in a row. Extraordinary knowledge, this last riddle, but why not guess? Can't you really guess? It's a pity. If you can hit the four yuan in a row and break Miss Zhiqing's floor lamp, then you will become famous overnight. ”

Can you become famous by breaking this lady's riddle? Lin Wanrong couldn't help but shake her head slightly, seeing that this Fang Ruchuan looked kind. Not as arrogant as before, he only smiled. Didn't say yes, didn't say no.

Tian Wenjing saw Lin Wanrong's grinning appearance, she was indignant, and couldn't help but snort: "It's okay if you can't guess it, if Miss Zhiqing knows that her lantern riddle was guessed by a subordinate, I'm afraid she won't be happy." ”

When the second young lady heard him belittle Lin San, she was furious in her heart, and opened her mouth to say, "You are not even as good as a subordinate!" Lin San, let's go, ignore him. ”

The eldest lady smiled and didn't speak, Yushuang snorted and pulled Lin Wanrong downstairs.

"Second Miss, why are you so angry, your mouth grows on others, let them say go, a few taels of meat are indispensable." Lin Wanrong smiled nonchalantly.

"Hmph, you are much more knowledgeable than them, whoever dares to bully you, I will not spare anyone. Besides, after two years, we will get married, you will be mine, you will be mine-" The second lady blushed a few times and couldn't continue, Lin Wanrong said strangely: "What is yours?" ”

"It's my father-in-law!" Yushuang blushed and said softly, but her breasts were stiff, shy and firm.

The eldest lady listened to the two of them talking, her face was also a little feverish, and she couldn't help but gently pull her sister's little hand, and said with a smile: "Ghost girl, you are not ashamed to speak." ”

Haha, Lin Wanrong was overjoyed when he heard this, as if he had eaten a few catties of viagra, and halfway down the stairs, he suddenly turned around and shouted: "Who is that, Brother Fang Ruchuan, come over here." ”

Fang Ruchuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Brother Tai, are you calling me?" ”

Lin Wanrong nodded slightly, found a pen and paper and wrote four words, and said with a smile: "This last mystery is here, if you want to see it, come and get it." ”

Fang Ruchuan was overjoyed, and hurriedly pounced, Lin Wanrong handed the note to him, laughed, and pulled the two young ladies downstairs.

Fang Ruchuan looked at those words, was stunned for a long time, and then jumped up and said: "Brother Tai, I guessed right, I guessed right, you broke Miss Zhiqing's four lantern riddles." ”

The crowd hurriedly gathered around, only to see that there were four words written on the paper -- "frog, horse, fish, snake," and it was indeed four living creatures.

"Miss Zhiqing and Ye Gongzi are hereβ€”" I don't know who made an exclamation, everyone hurriedly looked up, and sure enough, they saw a man and a woman, coming upstairs in a graceful manner.

Tian Wenjing sighed, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Two, you're late." ”

*******************************************************************

The crowds of people watching the lights are still crowded, but they are not as crowded as when they are busy. Lin Wanrong and the two young ladies walked downstairs. Listening to a commotion from upstairs, he couldn't help but shake his head, guessing a few lantern riddles will make you happy like this, it seems that the nightlife of these young ladies is still too barren.

The eldest lady said strangely: "What words did you just write?" Did you really guess right? ”

Lin Wanrong read these words and said with a smile: "I don't know if I guessed correctly." Anyway, it's just a blind patch. ”

When the eldest lady heard these four words, she already knew that he had really solved four riddles in a row, but she pretended to be so indifferent, and said funny and angry: "If you guess right, you will guess correctly, if you like to play tricks." Do you want that clever Miss Zhiqing to remember you? ”

Lin Wanrong was taken aback and said, "Miss, you can see this, so that you can remember it." ”

"Nonsense, I hate it to death." The eldest lady glanced at Yushuang and snorted secretly.

The second lady was very happy, hugged his arm and said, "I know." Bad guy, you're the strongest! ”

Rubbing lightly on her tall breasts a few times, Lin Wanrong laughed, squeezed her eyebrows and said, "Strong, the earth is indeed very strong, you will know in the future." ”

The second young lady's jade cheeks were slightly red, but she looked up at him bravely and smiled charmingly. At that moment, there was a faint shadow of Mrs. Xiao.

The Xiao family's branch in the capital is an industry purchased by Mrs. Xiao when she was alive. Two sets of extra-large courtyard houses are located at the mouth of Dongsi Hutong, which is also a prosperous place in Beijing. The prosperity of Gyeonggi is really extraordinary, and although it is night, there are still people coming and going on this street.

When the eldest lady's carriage stopped at the door of the shop, the steward, who had already received the news, led the men to meet her. Seeing Xiao Yuruo get out of the carriage, everyone rushed up to greet the eldest lady.

According to the traditional customs of Dahua, it is never too late to pay New Year's greetings in the first month. The eldest lady glanced at Lin San, and Lin Wanrong scattered the red envelopes that had been prepared to the guys.

The steward of the Beijing branch is a Mali's eldest sister, whose husband's surname is Song, and everyone calls her Song's sister-in-law. According to the eldest lady, this sister-in-law Song was Mrs. Xiao's outer room when she was young, and she was also her own person.

Sister-in-law Song grabbed the eldest lady and asked questions, and when she talked about Mrs. Xiao, she couldn't wipe away her tears. After the conversation, Sister-in-law Song personally served the boiled rice balls and sent them to the hands of the two young ladies and said: "Eldest Miss, Second Miss, you have traveled a long way, and you are spending the festival outside, and the slaves and maids are not taking good care of you. I don't know if this rice ball is suitable for the two of you. ”

The eldest lady took a bite of the bowl and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law Song, this is lotus paste and eight treasure dumplings, it's hard for you to remember that your mother likes this, it tastes very good." ”

Sister-in-law Song listened to the eldest lady's praise, and her heart was happy, and the second lady heard that it was the eight treasures of lotus paste that her mother liked, and she couldn't help but taste a few bites.

The eldest lady smiled and handed over a bowl to Lin Wanrong's hand and said, "Didn't you ask if you could eat Lantern Festival tonight?" Let's try it, this is our authentic Jinling glutinous rice balls. ”

Lin Wanrong scooped up a rice ball and put it in his mouth, the lotus paste wrapped in the glutinous rice flour was hot, he coughed a few times in a hurry, and hurriedly spit it back into the bowl, his face was already red.

The eldest lady giggled and said, "Who is fighting with you or robbing it, asking you to be so greedy." ”

According to the rules, the eldest lady and the second lady have not used it, Lin San, the current person, must not eat first, seeing that the eldest lady treats Lin San intimately, Sister-in-law Song was surprised, but she couldn't help laughing and didn't say it.

After the Lantern Festival, symbolizing the full completion of the new year, the eldest lady and the second lady were tired, they worked day and night for more than ten days, even if they followed their mother's strong personality, but they were also exhausted, seeing the location, they naturally wanted to rest early.

Sister-in-law Song said respectfully: "Miss, this inner courtyard is specially prepared for the two of you, and the maid and wife have been prepared, so you and the second lady should rest in peace earlier." ”

The eldest lady snorted, pulled Yushuang up and walked inside, walked a few steps, and suddenly turned her head and said, "Sister-in-law Song, have you arranged Lin San's residence?" ”

Sister-in-law Song hurriedly said: "The arrangement is complete, it is in the outer house adjacent to the inner courtyard." ”

The eldest lady pondered for a while, and said softly: "He is the most important person in my Xiao family, I still have many things to discuss with him, let him also live in our inner courtyard, it is more convenient." Besides, there is a man here, and I feel safer. Hey, eat it, say you-"

Lin Wanrong swallowed the last rice ball in the bowl. He took a few breaths and slapped a few times with his hand before panting: "I know, I know it, the eldest lady will say it." I'm listening. ”

Xiao Yuruo looked at him funny, this person's belly didn't know how to grow, he was not small in knowledge, and he ate a lot: "Let you live in this inner courtyard, are you willing?" ”

"Protect the two young ladies? This is what I do best. Lin Wanrong said with a smile.

The eldest lady blushed. glared at him, turned around and left, the second lady secretly beckoned to him, and Lin Wanrong followed smartly.

The courtyard in the capital is the most distinctive, boxy, two opposite, two by two, two flower beds are planted in the middle, simple and generous, and the ground is paved with green bricks. Very simple and elegant.

For a long time, this place was her home, Lin Wanrong looked around, and felt a little touched in her heart. The eldest lady had the same thought and couldn't help but glance at him. Xiao Yushuang waited until the fifteenth day and then went to live in Jinghua College, and the feeling at home was naturally not as strong as the two of them.

The eldest lady chose a wing room to live in by the south, which is called sitting in the south and looking at the north. When Lin Wanrong chose the place, he did not hesitate to pick the room in the north and sit in the north facing south.

Seeing that the Xiao family sisters looked distressed. Lin Wanrong said: "After such a long journey, the wind and dust are served, the two young ladies should take a bath comfortably and rest early." ”

The eldest lady nodded, hummed softly, and was about to go back to the room. But he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "Then what are you doing?" ”

Lin Wanrong said with a righteous face: "The two young ladies are bathing and changing. Of course, I'm on guard on the perimeter to keep out the petty kids**. Please rest assured, as long as I am Lin San, no one will be able to enter. ”

Others can't come in, I'm afraid that only you can come in, the eldest lady's face was blushing, and she felt a little like a wolf entering the room, she glanced at him and didn't dare to speak. Yushuang's eyebrows were shy, and she said lightly: "Bad person, I'm bathing with my sister, you are not allowed to come in." Otherwise, I will let my mother punish you. ”

Lin Wanrong's bones are soft, and although the second lady is young, when it comes to seducing me, she is first-class. If I do break in, it's not my fault, it's the fire that you have started.

**********************************************

The two young ladies stripped naked, soaked in the wooden barrel, and moistened their cheeks with moisture, and their bodies were soft and comfortable.

The eldest lady has snow skin and jade breasts, crystal clear, and looks like a ** jade beauty in the mist.

Yushuang's eyes lingered on her sister's chest for a while, a trace of envy flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly mustered up her courage, leaned into the eldest lady's ear, and said a few words shyly. Xiao Yuruo's face turned red when he heard this, and he said angrily: "He is a villain, if you dare to do this to you, I will go to him and fight hard." ”

The second lady blushed and said lightly: "That's not the case, he said that the massage is to promote my development, and he also said that in the future, I will grow bigger than my sister's." ”

The eldest lady couldn't listen to it anymore, her face was blood-red, her slender jade hand slapped violently in the bucket, the water splashed, and she said fiercely: "I'm angry, this bad thing, dead thing, no conscience thing." ”

The second lady hummed and said, "He's just so bad." Sister, just now he said that he was guarding us outside, but why didn't he see any movement, didn't he hide somewhere to peek? ”

The eldest lady screamed, and hurriedly covered her chest with her hands, thinking of that person's "evil deeds", and guarding self-theft was definitely his strength. The eldest lady looked around nervously, and the windows, the cracks in the doors, the skylights and the roof, were all intact, and the hateful figure was not to be seen.

Lin Wanrong put her ear to the window and listened, frowned, and shook her head helplessly, Miss, you underestimate me too much, **This kind of tasteless thing, how did I Lin San do it, stealing hearts is the king.

He yawned and was about to go back to the house to get a good night's sleep, when he suddenly saw the scattered red thread lantern in the corner, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, and carried the lamp into the house.

The two sisters finished bathing with each other, and when they pushed the door and came out, they saw that the lights in Lin San's room were bright, and the guy didn't know what he was doing.

The eldest lady said softly: "Yushuang, go and see, what is that bad thing doing, you don't sleep so late, you want to exhaust your body, don't you?" ”

The second lady snorted, walked over with cat hands and feet, and looked in through the crack in the window, only to see Lin San holding a lantern, constantly busy. She didn't see why, and she didn't dare to disturb him, so she tiptoed back to her sister and whispered a few words in her ear.

The eldest lady frowned and snorted, "Just let that villain mess around, and we'll rest in peace." ”

I don't know how long I slept for a long time, but the eldest lady was so restless that she couldn't close her eyes, so she put on her shirt and pushed the door out.

In the middle of the moon, the night is like water, and in half an hour, the fifteenth day of the first month will pass. The lights in the opposite room were all turned off, and there was not a trace of movement, and I thought that the guy was also asleep.

Sleep so early, pig! The eldest lady was annoyed, kicked her little foot, and was about to go back to the room, when she glanced around, but saw a wooden ladder standing in the corner of the wall.

Looking up along the wooden ladder, the eldest lady covered her small mouth, and under the surprise of surprise, tears fell.

On the roof, a sturdy lantern slowly floated up and rose into the air. The red thread tied around the ankles of the two little figures shone in the orange light.

Lin San was lying on the roof, his eyes were lightly closed, his breathing was even, the moonlight shone on his face, and the saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth was clearly visible......
