Chapter 102: Lantern Riddle Competition
Fu Raohua came to Zhou Jingrong every day to report on the progress of developing the hair cream, and she found it very happy to do it, and every time she made a little progress, she would get a great sense of satisfaction.
Zhou Jingrong looked at Fu Raohua, who was becoming more and more confident, and was also very happy for her.
Moreover, she also got a lot of inspiration from the process of Fu Raohua often popularizing various spice knowledge to her.
Fu Raohua's imagination is very rich, she imagines all kinds of spices as graceful women, pure or charming, exuding a charming fragrance in her gestures.
Zhou Jingrong was inspired by Fu Raohua and designed a representative comic character image according to the characteristics of each balm of Yuhua Shuang.
Such as peach, the fragrance is peach blossom, sweet and greasy, the representative image is a pink dress, holding a pink flower umbrella, innocent and lively little Lori.
Another example is bamboo green, the main material is wilted fern, the fragrance is relatively clear, Zhou Jingrong designed its representative image as a royal sister wearing a green dress and a jade flute with a cold face.
……
Zhou Jingrong plans to use these characters as the virtual spokesperson of each balm to promote, and use the different scene forms of the characters as the packaging of the paintings.
When Zhou Jingrong designed these characters, he also inspired new inspiration, and planned to personify spices as the theme to make a new comic.
So after designing the representative image of the balm, she handed over the task of making the packaging to the artist hired by the auction house, and she devoted herself to designing the characters, backgrounds, and plots of the new comics.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Shangyuan Festival.
Shangyuan Festival is a very important festival because it is the last festival of the first month, and after this day, the year will pass completely.
At the same time, it is also the first full moon night of the new year, representing the beginning of the new year, the beginning of the old and the welcome of the new.
Since a few days ago, the light market has been opened, and the night is bright and day, and the fire trees and silver flowers are brilliant.
Zhou Jingrong was too busy to go out to enjoy the lanterns, so she finally stopped her work on the day of the festival and went out to play with the Fu family.
The Yuhua Cream series of balms also took advantage of the festive atmosphere to launch a new packaging on this day.
Each jar of balm is packaged with a different scene and form of its unique character representation, and each has a different sentence written on it, which can be funny or inspiring, as a unique label.
Those sentences seem to be strung together into the exclusive story of each character, waiting for people to dig up, attracting a lot of attention.
People rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and products are no exception, and the new packaging of Yuhuashuang was all sold out in just one hour, and many scheduled orders were signed.
Fu Raohua, who heard the news, was very excited, and sincerely admired: "Second sister-in-law, you are so powerful!" It's just that the packaging has been changed, and the sales have actually increased several times! ”
Zhou Jingrong was a little proud in her heart, and her mouth was still modest: "It's your balm that is done well, plus the festive atmosphere." ”
Fu Yunshen looked at Zhou Jingrong's cute expression that was hiding her smugness, and her eyes were full of tenderness.
However, what makes Fu Raohua even more amazing is still to come.
Fu Raohua followed Zhou Jingrong to Qi Wuju, and as soon as she entered the door, she was shocked by the lively scene inside.
The hall of Qi Wuju removed the tables and chairs and arranged it to look like an outdoor place.
All kinds of shops are lined up on both sides, and the middle is for pedestrians to pass. There are all kinds of food, lantern accessories, and game stalls, just like an indoor street market.
Fu Raohua couldn't help but exclaim again: "Second sister-in-law, this is too ingenious!" ”
It can not only meet the needs of people to play and enjoy the lanterns, but also do not have to endure the cold outside!
Wu Mingyue, Lin Shutong and others who walked with them also praised again and again.
Zhou Jingrong threw a smile on his face at Fu Yunshen, this was all his idea, and he also contributed money and effort to make it.
Otherwise, she would be reluctant to spend a huge amount of money to build an indoor shopping mall that is only open for one night just for the festival, and she will definitely not be able to return to her roots!
In fact, Fu Yunshen knew that Zhou Jingrong was afraid of the cold and playful, so he came up with the idea of moving the market indoors, so that she could enjoy the festival warmly.
This is really a smile for the Pomeranians, and a lot of money!
Zhou Jingrong ate a bowl of steaming wontons, and sighed in her heart, rich is good, willful!
Fu Yunshen looked at Zhou Jingrong's informal eating appearance, helplessly and dotingly, he reached out to help her wipe the soup that was stained on her lips, and she didn't dislike it at all.
Fu Raohua looked at this warm scene, snickered, and saw that Wu Mingyue was also holding a handkerchief, gesturing to help her wipe her mouth.
She subconsciously avoided the side, and then reached out to take the handkerchief and said "thank you" in a low voice.
Wu Mingyue's eyes darkened, Fu Raohua was separated from him in the end.
"Rong Niang!"
Zhou Jingrong was feasting, when she suddenly heard Song Tinglan's voice, looked up, and beckoned to her happily: "Lan Niang!" ”
Because of the cold weather, Zhou Jingrong doesn't like to go out, and she and Song Tinglan haven't seen each other for a while. At this time, the two were very happy to see each other, and they got together and talked affectionately.
Also coming with Song Tinglan were Song Ziyan and Zhao Xuan.
Song Tinglan and Zhao Xuan have already made a marriage, and I think the two of them will travel together accompanied by Song Ziyan.
Lin Shutong saw Zhao Xuan for the first time, but he still felt a little embarrassed in the face of this person who had mentioned his relatives to him, and deliberately avoided his sight.
However, Zhao Xuantan was frank, greeted one by one, and did not leave Lin Shutong, and then stood behind Song Tinglan, not saying much, and being polite.
Zhou Jingrong took Song Tinglan's hand and asked her to sit down and eat something.
Song Tinglan invited: "I want to go over and guess the lantern riddle, will you go?" ”
Zhou Jingrong laughed and said mysteriously: "Then you have to guess carefully, there are many riddles that I came up with, see how many of them can be guessed correctly." ”
Song Tinglan was slightly stunned, and then showed a smile that she was determined to win: "Then I can definitely guess correctly!" ”
After saying that, she ran to guess the lantern riddle in a hurry.
Zhou Jingrong reacted for a while, Song Tinglan felt that the questions with her IQ must be simple, so she was so confident, right?
Fu Yunshen heard that Zhou Jingrong had a riddle, and he was a little moved, so he pretended to be calm for a long time, but he still couldn't hold back, got up and pulled Zhou Jingrong, and said lightly: "Let's also guess the lantern riddle." ”
Zhou Jingrong was dragged up by Fu Yunshen, and did not forget to stretch out his arm and grab a handful of sugar-coated peanuts. She's not interested in lantern riddles, she just wants to eat delicious food!
When Zhou Jingrong and Fu Yunshen came to the booth where they guessed the lantern riddles, Song Tinglan had already solved many riddles.
She holds a pen in her hand, her demeanor is serious and focused, often the eyes over there will finish the riddle, and the hand here has already written the answer, and there is a momentum to take down all the riddles.
Fu Yunshen also asked the stall for paper and pen, he glanced at ten lines, and the pen flew again, and it didn't take long to catch up with Song Tinglan's progress and join the war.
Yes, war.
Because it is a riddle made by Zhou Jingrong, it is not just as simple as guessing the lantern riddle, but from another point of view, it also represents the degree of understanding of Zhou Jingrong.
Therefore, of course, Fu Yunshen has to compete with Song Tinglan.
Fu Yunshen is also very depressed, why did he never return on the road of competing for favor with Zhou Jingrong's female friends?
Zhou Jingrong's IQ is not low, but her understanding of ancient customs and culture is not so deep, so her lantern riddles have no technical content, and the answers are directly written on the riddle.
For example, anagrams, are all completely literally dismantled such as "the painting is not a field", "a person with a bow on his back", "spring and autumn is not hot", "unprepared", and then even a three-year-old child knows "the time is round when painting, the time is square, it is warm, and it is not cold"......
finally had a little need to use their brains to "water reflects the remnants of the mountains and remnants of red", Fu Yunshen and Song Tinglan didn't think about it, and directly wrote the mystery on the paper: green.
Zhou Jingrong could only look at the sky speechlessly, so, you are a talented man and a talented woman, why did you come to smash her field?
You know, all the riddles have been guessed, and the person who made the question is also embarrassed, okay, she doesn't want to lose face?
But what people didn't expect was that Fu Yunshen really lost in this simple lantern riddle where the answer was written on the riddle.
The riddle of the last lantern riddle is "Chao Qin and Dusk Chu", and the riddle is to guess an idiom.
Song Tinglan still wrote as soon as she put pen to paper, but Fu Yunshen was a little hesitant.
Countless answers rushed through his mind in an instant, and finally he wrote "Time has passed" with great certainty, while Song Tinglan's answer was "A Thousand Miles a Day".
The mystery was revealed, and it was Song Tinglan who answered correctly.
Fu Yun looked at Zhou Jingrong puzzled: "Why?" ”
Zhou Jingrong weakly explained: "In the Qin State in the morning, and in the Chu State in the evening, isn't it a long way to walk in one day." ”
?!
Fu Yunshen was completely defeated by Zhou Jingrong and was speechless.
He thought about dismantling it literally, and he also thought about extending it from the meaning it contained. But then he thought that Zhou Jingrong would not come up with too difficult questions, so he chose to disassemble them literally, but he didn't expect that she would make the questions according to the straightforward and simple meaning that the literal representation represents.
Song Tinglan got the top prize, a lantern made into a flower ball shape, which was very beautiful, while Fu Yunshen only got a very ordinary fish-shaped lantern.
Fu Yunshen was very disgusted, he was not embarrassed to give such an ugly lantern to Zhou Jingrong at all, so he said no.
But Zhou Jingrong snatched it and held it in his arms like a baby: "You won it, why don't you?" ”
Fu Yunshen was a little embarrassed, and held back a sentence for a while: "It's not good-looking." ”
Zhou Jingrong said happily: "Why is it not good-looking, this is a koi, it can bring good luck to people!" ”
Fu Yunshen glanced at the ugly lantern, and wanted to say that it was just an ordinary carp, not a koi at all.
It can be seen that Zhou Jingrong is so happy, he didn't want her to ruin her fun, so he didn't say anything, but secretly thought in his heart, hurry up and ask people to find a koi lantern, and if you can't find it, make one!
Zhou Jingrong saw Fu Yun's unrelenting appearance, thinking that he was disappointed because he lost guessing the lantern riddle, and comforted him kindly: "The questions I came up with are too simple, but you are knowledgeable, and you suffer from it if you think too much." This doesn't mean that you're not smart, but it means that you're too smart, and your IQ is a cut higher than mine, so you can't be out of the loop. ”
Fu Yunshen listened to Zhou Jingrong's words, not only did he not get comfort, but he became even more depressed.
Simple? He couldn't guess it if it was simple, didn't it show that he was stupid, she was really praising him?
