In just one stick of incense, Song Lingyue and Xiangling have already answered more than 50 lantern riddles.

Qi Mo and Song Lingyue almost simultaneously handed the cardboard with the answers to the lantern riddles to the boss Li He.

Li He smiled and accepted the cardboard, and said to the two: "I didn't expect the two of you to answer the question so quickly, and you can come back at the same time to answer at the same time, there is really a tacit understanding." ”

Li He said as he took out the letterhead from his bosom that had already written the answer, and compared them one by one with the answers on the cardboard handed in by Qi Mo and Song Lingyue.

"Rare, rare." Li He nodded again and again while inspecting, "In the past, no matter how good the tourists who guessed the lantern riddles, they could guess at most about thirty questions correctly, but the two of you have already guessed more than fifty lantern riddles correctly." ”

"But it's a pity, this son's side has answered a total of fifty-six riddles, while the girl's side has only fifty-four." Li He glanced at Song Lingyue with regret.

"Quantity is not important, the most important thing is quality." Song Lingyue smiled slightly.

"But I believe that my quantity and quality are guaranteed." Qi Mo's slender fingers tapped on the table.

"The number of answers is quite a lot, and it will take some time to check, so please wait a while." Li He's inspection efficiency was too slow alone, so he lost a little face, and asked the little guy on the side to check the answer to the riddle with him.

After about a tea time, Li He appeared in front of the two with a smile on his face: "The results have been checked." ”

"Qi Gongzi, fifty-six riddles, fifty-four right, two wrong.

As for Miss Song here, there are fifty-four lantern riddles, fifty-three are right, and one is wrong, which is a pity.

However, so far, the two are the top two who have guessed the most lantern riddles in this lantern riddle.

According to our redemption rules, both of you can choose any of these prizes. ”

After Li He finished speaking, he took out the red sandalwood tray that had been displayed before from the cabinet and placed it on the table.

"Then please choose your favorite prize." Li He pushed the tray in front of Qi Mo and Song Lingyue.

"I want this cloth tiger." Song Yanzhi didn't think about it, and directly pointed to the mini cute cloth tiger in the tray, and at the same time secretly raised his eyes to glance at Xiangling on the side.

Xiangling saw that her favorite cloth tiger was about to be snatched away by Song Yanzhi's horizontal knife, tears began to roll in her eyes, and she was even more annoyed that she couldn't answer a few more puzzles.

Li He smiled and handed the cloth tiger in the tray to Song Yanzhi, "Take it, little brother." ”

Song Yanzhi hugged the little cloth tiger and proudly raised Xiangling, Xiangling snorted and hid behind Song Lingyue.

Qi Mo pretended to be picking out the prize he liked in the tray, but in fact, he lowered his voice and said to Li He:

"Boss, how do you sell the bracelet in this tray?"

What Qi Mo was referring to was exactly what Song Lingyue said before, the pair of silver bracelets he wanted.

Li He said with a smile: "Childe, this bracelet is a prize for the lantern riddle meeting, and it can't be sold." ”

Qi Mo leaned over and lowered his voice and whispered to Li He:

"Boss, your bracelet is marked with more than sixty-five riddles that need to be answered correctly for exchange, which is difficult for a strong man. If you don't want to redeem the prize, why bother to release it to attract attention?

Besides, I can answer 54 questions in one stick of incense, how do you know that I don't have the spare strength to answer more than 65 questions correctly? I'll buy it with you now, at least you won't lose, and if I really participate in the lantern riddle again, I will definitely get this bracelet. ”

Li He raised his eyes just to meet the shallow smile on the corner of Qi Mo's lips, just now he had been observing this pair of young men and women.

If it weren't for the fact that they all had a child, if they only participated in guessing lantern riddles, it would not be impossible to guess sixty-five lantern riddles in one stick of incense.

A drop of cold sweat slipped from Li He's forehead, and the purpose of the heavy color was to attract more greedy tourists who were willing to come to play guessing activities, and the conditions for getting the heavy color must be extremely harsh, and even unfinishable.

These are the reasons why he has come to do lantern riddles every year over the years, and he has made a lot of money every year.

"This guest looked at what you said, since you really like this pair of bracelets, it's not impossible to sell them to you." Li He's head turned quickly, and he immediately put on a smiling face after calculating the gains and losses.

Qi Mo didn't bargain with him, he took out a silver nude from his arms and secretly stuffed it to Li He, "You know if your silver bracelet is worth this price." ”

Li He weighed the weight, and he could make a little profit before he nodded, and was about to take out the silver bracelet for Qi Mo but was stopped by Qi Mo, he lowered his voice and said, "I'll come back to you to get it from you later." After all, isn't the Lantern Festival over yet? ”

Li He suddenly realized, and arched his hand towards Qi Mo, "Thank you for your compassion." ”

Qi Mo's thin lips raised a touch of arc, and his gaze swept across Song Lingyue's face, who didn't know what he was thinking, and his attention was not on him at all.

"It's a pity that girl, fifty-four riddles missed a riddle and didn't answer it, if you can answer it, you will be tied for the first place tonight with your son." Li He saw that Qi Mo kept raising his eyes to look at Song Lingyue, and said without words.

Qi Mo frowned, "Do you know which one she didn't answer?" ”

Li He replied: "It is the one of the eighth lantern, 'the riddle is qualified, and it is fearful'. ”

Qi Mo's eyes sank, he didn't speak again, he didn't even look at it, and he randomly selected a sample from the tray and put it into his arms.

Song Lingyue once thought that Song Yanzhi would definitely give it to Xiangling directly after exchanging the little cloth tiger, but she didn't expect Song Yanzhi to send it directly.

Not only did he deliberately show his love for the little cloth tiger in front of Xiangling, but he also secretly observed Xiangling's reaction, as if he was deliberately making Xiangling envy him.

As expected, I am afraid that I want to wait for Xiangling's envy before giving the cloth tiger to Xiangling, so that Xiangling will definitely be greatly moved.

I don't know where Song Yanzhi learned this kind of trick from whom.

But Song Yanzhi is her younger brother after all, Song Lingyue is not easy to dismantle, and she also wants to take this opportunity to teach Yanzhi a small lesson.

It's not impossible to please girls, but this kind of disguised suppression is always unpleasant.

Do you think that the desire to promote will move the girl? Maybe in the end, he moved a stone and hit his feet.

"Master......" Xiangling's eyes were full of tears, and she looked at the cloth tiger in Song Yanzhi's hand with envy.

"I'm sorry, Xiangling, if the master can answer one more question correctly, he will be able to redeem the cloth tiger for you." Song Lingyue bent down and kept her eyes level with Xiangling, comforting her softly, but she rolled her eyes at Song Yanzhi's naïve or clever flirting technique.

"I don't blame Master." Xiangling shook her head, the tears in her eyes were still flickering, which made people feel distressed.

"Although that little cloth tiger is quite cute, Master thinks that this pair of butterfly hairpins is beautiful when they are inserted on Ling Yue's head. Why don't we redeem this pair of butterfly hairpins, one for Master and one for Xiangling, how about it? Song Lingyue pointed to a pair of butterfly hairpins in the tray that were about to fly, the hairpins were very surprising, and the butterfly eyes were inlaid with rubies the size of rice grains, which were very exquisite.

Children's attention is always easily attracted to the past, Xiangling saw that the pair of butterfly hairpins were so delicate and beautiful, and immediately left the matter of the little cloth tiger behind.

"Master, this pair of hairpins really looks good! Let's redeem this hairpin! Xiangling's attention was completely attracted by the butterfly hairpin, and she couldn't put it down when she held it in her hand.

When Song Lingyue redeemed it, she pinned the butterfly hairpin to Xiangling's head, and Xiangling's mood suddenly improved.

Song Yanzhi didn't expect Xiangling to be so quick that the cloth tiger in his hand would not be rare, no matter how he showed off in front of Xiangling, what he got was a cold snort in addition to Xiangling's white eyes.

There is less than half an hour left before the fireworks display, and Qi Mo suggested that everyone had better go to Qingqiao to occupy a place now, otherwise if it is late, I am afraid that Qingqiao will already be full of people, let alone watching fireworks, only the back of the head can be seen.

Qi Mo protected Song Lingyue by his side, while Song Lingyue protected the two children, and walked towards Qingqiao with some difficulty in the endless crowd.

Occasionally, a crowd of people passed by them, most of them young girls or young boys.

It's just that in the bazaar where the lights and candles have been lit, those boys and girls are carrying lanterns in their hands, and all kinds of paintings and patterns are very chic and beautiful.

"Why do so many people have lanterns in their hands?" Song Lingyue asked Qi Mo on the side curiously.

Qi Mo raised his eyebrows: "Why don't you even know this?" ”

"I haven't participated in the Flower Dynasty Festival, so I don't know what's strange." Song Lingyue shrugged her shoulders.

"There are lanterns selling over there, why don't we buy a few of them and go back?" Qi Mo pointed to a stall selling lanterns not far away.

Song Lingyue wanted to ask if it was necessary to buy lanterns? Almost all the young men and women around them had a lantern in their hands, and they were about to light up the nearby sky as day.

Even if Song Lingyue wanted to object, it was too late, Qi Mo had already arrived in front of the stall selling lanterns, asked the price of the lanterns, handed over the money and asked Song Lingyue to come and choose.

Song Lingyue swept through the various lanterns placed on the stalls, and was finally attracted by a lantern shaped like a peach blossom.

The peach blossom lantern is made of bamboo crown in the shape of petals, and pasted with rice paper dyed in light pink, and the candle in the lantern is lit, and the whole peach blossom seems to glow, blooming with a gentle pink halo.

This shape is much more unique than the lantern with a cylindrical shape on the side, which is simply drawn with a brush.

Song Lingyue chose this peach blossom lantern, and the old man who sold the lantern still had words after seeing Song Lingyue choose the peach blossom lantern:

"The peach is dying, scorching its bloom. Not bad, not bad. ”

Song Lingyue's second monk was at a loss, and was about to ask Qi Mo's old man who sold lanterns why he suddenly said these words to her, when he heard a familiar voice behind him.

"I've found you."

Qi Mo and Song Lingyue turned around in unison, and it turned out to be Liu Liang, who was out of breath.
