Chapter 114: Are You Really Smarter Than My Sister?
Song Lingyue didn't expect Qi Mo to make such a request, pinched the sachet hidden in the sleeve pocket and didn't have time to hand it to Qi Mo, Sakura raised her lips, and her teeth pressed against her lips: "Okay!" But if I win against you, then I'll want the pair of silver bracelets in that tray. ”
The slender finger pointed to the tray in front of Li He, the owner of the lantern riddle stall, and a pair of silver bracelets were placed on the top of the tray.
Looking at the size and workmanship, you can know that it is indeed not cheap, and that pair of silver bracelets is also the most valuable prize in the guessing stall.
"Good! Deal! Qi Mo raised his palm, Song Lingyue didn't want to jump up and tap lightly on her palm, letting out a crisp applause.
"Sister, I want to guess the riddle too." Song Yanzhi shook Song Lingyue's skirt, and her little face raised with longing.
"Is there any prize you want?" Song Lingyue lowered her head and asked Song Yanzhi.
Song Yanzhi nodded very seriously, and pointed to a cute cloth tiger on the table not far away: "Yanzhi wants that cloth tiger!" ”
As soon as Song Yanzhi's words fell, Xiangling, who was standing beside him, changed and changed, biting his lip with his teeth, looking like he wanted to speak and stopped.
Song Lingyue could see at a glance that Xiangling probably liked this cloth tiger too, but she didn't expect to be picked by Song Yanzhi.
"In other words, you want that cloth tiger! No problem, Brother Qi Mo guesses the riddle for a while, how about I give it to you if I guess correctly? Qi Mo bent down and patted his chest with Song Yanzhi to reassure.
Unexpectedly, Song Yanzhi raised his face: "No!" I'm going to guess the riddle myself to win that tiger in the cloth! ”
Song Lingyue pinched Song Yanzhi's little face dotingly: "I didn't expect Yanzhi to be so confident, so good, let Yanzhi also join the lantern riddle." ”
"Long live my sister!" Song Yanzhi immediately cheered.
Qi Mo narrowed his eyes, and then he saw that something was wrong, from the beginning Xiangling was sullen, and his eyes kept falling on the cloth tiger.
Qi Mo suddenly understood, Song Yanzhi, this kid, should not have seen that Xiangling also wanted that cloth tiger. Xiangling is timid and thin-faced, so she must be embarrassed to tell Song Lingyue.
It's better to-
Qi Mo cleared his throat, "Yanzhidu has joined your team, so I can't be alone." Xiangling, would you like to be in a group with me? Let's guess the riddles together. ”
Xiangling was startled by Qi Mo's suddenly enlarged face in front of her, took a step back and almost fell, but fortunately, Song Lingyue helped Xiangling: "What's wrong Xiangling?" ”
"No, nothing." Xiangling's face was a little pale, and she hung her head and didn't dare to look at Qi Mo's face, but just whispered: "I don't seem to have read a book, I don't know anything, I can't help you, and I still don't participate in guessing lantern riddles." ”
Xiangling almost shrunk herself into a ball, revealing only a fair and smooth forehead.
Looking at Xiangling's appearance, Song Lingyue was inevitably a little distressed. Xiangling has always been very sensible and considerate, but she has always been very inferior and has no self-confidence, and she doesn't dare to fight for herself.
Thinking of this, Song Lingyue bent down and said to Xiangling: "Who said that Xiangling will not know anything." Xiangling is very smart, if you don't believe it, Xiangling and the master will participate in the lantern riddle meeting together, and the two of us will definitely be able to beat them to the ground. ”
"Master?" Xiangling raised her head in surprise.
Song Lingyue squeezed her eyes and coughed lightly: "Now that the team has changed, let's still group in the form of men's and women's matches." You and Yan are in a group, and I am in a group with Xiangling, how about it? ”
Qi Mo naturally had no opinion, he just felt that it was better, and nodded in agreement.
On the contrary, Song Yanzhi's little face was very entangled, looking at Song Lingyue and Qi Mo with an undecided look.
"In other words, do you believe Brother Qi Mo? Brother Qi Mo is very good at guessing lantern riddles, and he will definitely be able to help you win the cloth tiger. Qi Mo put his hand on Song Yanzhi's shoulder.
Song Yanzhi raised his head: "Brother Qi Mo, are you really smarter than my sister?" ”
Qi Mo's fingers slipped and almost didn't fall, and he couldn't help but slander in his heart: This little fat man looks down on people a little! He has been required by his mother to read since he was four years old, and he gets up before dawn to read every day, and he has to practice riding and archery and kung fu in the afternoon.
Looking at Song Lingyue's age, he is only fifteen or sixteen, and he started studying at the age of four or five, and he has only been studying for more than ten years, how can he compare with him?
However, Qi Mo didn't know that Song Lingyue was twenty-six years old after graduating from a medical university before crossing over, nine years of compulsory education and three years of preparation for the college entrance examination, plus six years of medical university, and the idea of studying was not much better than Qi Mo's.
Coupled with the developed modern social network, Song Lingyue likes to read some messy idle books, if you really talk about knowledge reserves, Qi Mo may not be able to win Song Lingyue.
"What do you say?" Qi Mo's face was full of confidence, "I'm a talent who has participated in the imperial examination." ”
Song Yanzhi was already studying, the significance of the Imperial Examination of the Way of Nature for scholars, as soon as he heard Qi Mo say this, he was immediately relieved, and he pulled the corner of Qi Mo's clothes and motioned him to bend over:
"Brother Qi Mo, that cloth tiger must win!"
"Got it!" Qi Mo pinched the palm of Song Yanzhi's hand, "Do you like Bu Laohu so much?" It doesn't look like anything special. Qi Mo glanced at the cloth tiger in the tray, it was made of ordinary red cloth, embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns, and it was much rougher than the embroidery girl in the palace.
"It's Xiangling who likes it! I want to give it to Xiangling! Song Yanzhi clenched his small fists, and his little face was full of determination.
Qi Mo couldn't help laughing: "People are small and big." "At such a young age, I know how to please a girl by giving gifts.
Thinking about it this way, should he deliberately lose to Song Lingyue? After all, Song Lingyue said just now that she really wanted the pair of bracelets in the tray.
Qi Mo slapped his forehead in annoyance, knowing that he should have asked Song Lingyue what he wanted before making a bet with Song Lingyue.
But fortunately, as long as he can win Song Lingyue and exchange the bracelet for her, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds.
Over there, Xiangling is also troubled by the same problem.
"Master, can you really win against Brother Qi?" Xiangling was very worried, she was afraid that she would drag Song Lingyue back.
"What, don't you believe Master can win?" Song Lingyue raised her eyebrows at Xianglingyi. Xiangling shook her head first, and then nodded, "Master is very powerful, and his medical skills are also very good, but he ...... This is a riddle, not a cure. ”
"You little girl, ghostly!" Song Lingyue hit Xiangling's small brain angrily.
Xiangling was in pain and stuck out her tongue at Song Lingyue.
Qi Mo and Song Lingyue came to the boss Li He, one on the left and one on the right.
"It's an entrance fee." Qi Mo and Song Lingyue took out a hundred copper coins to hand over to Li He.
Li He hurriedly waved his hand: "The two of you only need a hundred dollars, you don't need so much." ”
"No, we're two people!" Qi Mo and Song Lingyue spoke in unison.
Li He looked down at Qi Mo and Song Lingyue's sides, Xiangling and Song Yanzhi, who were only half a person tall, and couldn't help but smile:
"The two of you brought your younger siblings to guess the lantern riddles, right? Only those over the age of 12 will be charged, and children under the age of 12 will not be charged. ”
"Then, they don't charge for guessing the lantern riddle, and if they guess correctly, will they also give a reward?" Song Lingyue asked.
Li He smiled: "Of course. As long as you guess the riddle correctly, you will be rewarded, this girl just rest assured. ”
"Thank you, boss." After Song Lingyue finished speaking, she gave the money to Li He, and was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Li He.
"Girl, please transcribe the answers to the riddles on these cardboards. Each lantern has a question and a number written on it, and the answer is written according to the number, and if you can't guess it, you can skip it. Li He said as he handed Song Lingyue a piece of cardboard, on which the numbers from one to ten had been written in advance.
Song Lingyue stretched out her hand and touched it, the hard cardboard was made of bamboo crown as a frame, first pasted with straw paper to increase the hardness, and then pasted with rice paper on the outside, with a certain hardness, even if it is not placed on the table, it can be used for writing.
There are two rows of five squares drawn on the paper, and the heads of each grid are numbered with Chinese characters, and they are arranged neatly and beautifully from one to ten.
"Please transcribe the answer to the riddle in the grid, and if you are afraid of losing it, you can sign your name in the upper right corner." Li He had a warm smile on his face, and his index finger pointed to a blank spot on the paper. "If you make a mistake or think of a new answer, you can change it before you give it to me. Do you have any questions that I can help you answer? ”
"Boss, the lantern riddles that are hanging out now are limited, what if someone writes the answer, and you have confirmed the answer with the boss, and after redeeming the prize, what should you do if you reveal the answer to others? It's unfair to the people who answer the questions! Song Lingyue took the cardboard, turned around and asked again.
Li He had long expected Song Lingyue to ask this, so he just smiled and said:
"This girl can rest assured. The puzzle of each lantern will be replaced by the other lanterns after it is answered correctly, and the puzzle will naturally change.
For this lantern riddle meeting, I prepared more than 200 lantern riddles, including word puzzles, word puzzles, and riddles to guess animals or objects.
Even if the two hundred prepared riddles run out, it doesn't matter, I can continue to make them on the spot.
However, it should be noted that there is a time limit for solving lantern riddles, and you must not exceed the time, otherwise the answer will be invalid. ”
"I see, thank you Boss Li for clarifying your doubts." Song Lingyue smiled at Li He, took Xiangling's hand and glanced at Qi Mo on his side, and then went to look at the riddle written on the lantern.
Fifty dollars is not a small amount, so there are still very few tourists who come to the lantern riddle at this time, plus Song Lingyue and the four of them, there are only six people in total at this time who are guessing the lantern riddle.
The crowd of onlookers has tacitly vacated the space, so that the people who participate in the lantern riddle can take a closer look at the riddle under the lantern, and there are also many onlookers who have read and read will read the riddle and let everyone guess together.
"Xiangling, I've just read it once, and most of the words on this riddle are commonly used." Song Lingyue took Xiangling to take a general look at the lanterns hanging around and the riddles on the lanterns, and lowered her head to discuss with Xiangling: "Then now let's guess separately, and finally guess the answer, or guess and analyze together?" ”
