Chapter 265: Guess the lantern riddle
The night is already deep, the ancient city in the air out of nowhere to float a few Kong Ming lanterns, along the road Miss Gongzi watched, closed their eyes and clasped hands, each made a wish.
There are many river lanterns drifting in the flow of the Wei River, countless men and women look at the river lanterns released into the mainstream, and see their lanterns falling into the water in the rapids of the Wei River, all sighing, if they are lucky to drift away on the river surface, they are applauding.
Bai Song walked all the way and stopped all the way, looking at the prosperity all the way.
There are a lot of flower boats on the river, each of them is colorful, from the bow to the stern, each is illuminated, and there are few girls from the Qinglou who come from the flower street, all waving and smiling at the sons on the riverbank, and I hope that all the benefactors will stop looking stupid.
The number one flower boat that Bai Song is going to is in the middle of many flower boats, in addition to countless colored lanterns, seven or eight ropes are stretched from both sides of the river to tie up on the boat, and the whole flower boat is fixed in the middle of the Wei River.
Then there is a wooden boardwalk, which leads directly from the ferry to the bow of the boat.
Behind the number one flower boat, another ropeway is connected to a floating square stage, which is surrounded by colorful lights and flowers, and has the best location, so that tourists on both sides of the Wei River can see clearly.
The time has come, and the various programs recommended by the major merchants in the county have begun tonight.
I don't know which singer was invited, and she was singing on the piano on stage at the moment, but the singing was no better in the whole lantern festival, and it was completely drowned in the crowd.
Bai Song was already late and became a little anxious.
But there are too many pedestrians on this street, but the road is only a few tens of meters, and it is better to die than to squeeze into the ferry.
After a while, I finally arrived at the ferry, and I was waiting in line to get on the flower boat, and the girls who guessed the lantern riddles on the side were very lively.
This lantern will naturally be indispensable to the lantern riddle, next to a vendor hanging all kinds of lanterns, lanterns hanging under the lanterns, guess the lantern riddles to send lanterns, attracted a lot of girls onlookers.
"Brother-in-law!"
A voice appeared from the side, and Lin Xun came out of nowhere.
"Why doesn't my brother-in-law join my sister?"
"At the invitation of the Chen family, I went to the number one flower boat, and I can't accompany your sister today."
"Look at it, my brother-in-law has gone to the number one flower boat, what are you still doing? I can't even guess a lantern riddle, what do I want you to do?! ”
As he spoke, the Qin clan also appeared beside him.
The couple has always lived in their own house, and Lin Xunyang begged Xiang'er to take her in, saying that he would go back only to see the Lantern Festival.
Bai Song didn't want them to stay, but there was no reason to refuse.
Therefore, he has avoided them for the past few days, especially this young Qin clan.
When Qin spoke, he naturally stepped forward, followed the crowd, and leaned quietly on Bai Song's side, his eyes flashed, glancing at Bai Song, and there was a lot of grievance between his eyebrows.
Bai Song looked at the drum in his heart, and he couldn't retreat if he wanted to.
Lin Xun is a sixteen-year-old kid who doesn't know how to read words and emotions at all, and he doesn't know that his wife's eyes are full of spring water, and something is going to happen.
This kid is afraid of his brother-in-law, and he is afraid of his wife, and the two most feared people have no momentum when they talk together.
Listening to Mrs. Fang's complaints, she honestly did not speak.
Last year, because of the poems given by Bai Song, he became famous for a period of time, but today, the fame is long gone, and no one is entangled in where Xiao Sui's poems on Young Master Lin came from.
But Lin Xun knew in his heart that it was his brother-in-law who was really talented.
All kinds of wonderful poems can be at your fingertips, why worry about those lantern riddles that coax the little girl?
Thinking about it, Lin Xun took the initiative to say: "Brother-in-law, my wife wants the lantern, but I can't guess the lantern riddle, so it's better to let my brother-in-law help." ”
The Qin family was overjoyed when he heard this, and echoed again and again: "It's just right, my brother-in-law is more learned than my family, and those lantern riddles must not be able to stop my brother-in-law." ”
As he spoke, he hooked his little hand and grabbed Bai Song, and walked quickly to the place where he guessed the lantern riddle.
Bai Song pulled his hand back, frowned and said, "I'm in a hurry." ”
"It doesn't take a while to guess the lantern riddle, and there are a lot of people here, and if you want to board the ship, it will take a while. Brother-in-law, come over quickly, could it be that you look down on your younger siblings and refuse to help even with this little favor? ”
Lin Xun is still begging on the side, but he is afraid that if he does not follow his wife's wishes, he will be reprimanded all the way later.
Bai Song was reluctant and went to the side of the road stall.
Qin's face was full of spring, hooked Bai Song's arm, and pointed to the hanging lantern with the other hand.
"Brother-in-law, look, people like that. Both sides have one heart, guess a word! ”
Bai Song swept his eyes and shook his head: "I can't guess." ”
"What about this? Under the bright moon in front of the bottle, the shadow became three people. It's also a guess. ”
Bai Song continued to shake his head.
Qin's expression remained unchanged and continued to point to the front happily: "This brother-in-law must know!" Good at water warfare, guess the characters of the Three Kingdoms, after all, my brother-in-law is the one who wrote the Three Kingdoms. ”
"I don't know."
The Qin clan looked stupid and stared at Bai Song with disgust: "Brother-in-law, can't you guess, or don't you want to guess?" ”
"Oops, I'm in a hurry."
"Humph! I think my brother-in-law is just ruthless, and he ...... that night."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"It's okay if I don't say it, brother-in-law can't fool people like this."
"I ...... I can't really guess. ”
"That brother and sister have a riddle, my brother-in-law must be able to guess it, anyway, if you guess a riddle today, they will let you go."
There were many people around, and Bai Song couldn't say anything, so he could only ask patiently: "Tell me about it." ”
Qin suddenly covered his mouth and smiled, nodded his feet and whispered in Bai Song's ear:
"The day and night are warm, and when it is cold, it shrinks and when it is warm.
The whole body is mushy and does not slip his hands, and it is difficult to hold his heart.
Resident in the water curtain and grass piles, drilling holes day and night to stir mud.
The daughter's heart is full of deliciousness, and the clever woman is difficult to cook. ”
"You!" Bai Song shook it off when he heard it, "Where did you hear this!" ”
This Qin clan is really a difficult word to describe!
The Qin family was not angry or complaining, and entangled again: "Brother-in-law, why did it catch fire?" Brother and sister don't know what to offend? What's the mystery? Why didn't my brother-in-law say it? ”
Bai Song twisted his eyebrows and walked to the lantern riddle, pointed to the three lanterns before, and said to the shopkeeper.
"Both sides have one heart, for the word suffering. Under the bright moon in front of the bottle, the shadow becomes three people, which is the word Tsubaki. The person who is good at water warfare is Lu Xunye. ”
After speaking, regardless of the shopkeeper's stunned expression, he took down the three lanterns by himself, turned around and stuffed them to the Qin family, and then returned to the queue.
The Qin family happily held the lantern and showed off in front of Lin Xun, and it was a good one.
It happened that the pedestrians in front of him were evacuated, and Bai Song took the opportunity to get to the front and went all the way to the aisle of the number one flower boat.
When I arrived at the number one flower boat, the whole body was finally loose, and there were no more pedestrians crowded.
Soon arrived at the bow of the boat, saw that Dong Xiang had been waiting there for an unknown amount of time, and finally saw the young master coming, and hurried over to complain again and again.
Bai Song took out the invitation of the Chen family before being released.
Dong Xiang complained while tidying up Bai Song's clothes: "Young master, what are you doing!" I don't know how many times Master Chen has come to ask, and Mrs. told me to deal with it well, and not to lose my courtesy. Now the major figures in Jixian County are inside, and the young master is alone. ”
"You don't look at how many people are on the road."
While speaking, Chen Fan, the head of the Chen family, greeted him from the flower boat, with a spring breeze on his face, a smiling face, and arched his hand towards Bai Song from afar: "Bai Gongzi, it's late!" ”
Bai Song said that it was congested on the road and delayed time.
Chen Fan looked easy-going and didn't care, and pulled Bai Song into the banquet hall of the boat.
I saw that there were four tables sitting on the boat, with a large round table in the center and three small tables on the side.
Most of the young men and women seated at the small table are the outstanding children of the Jixian Shi clan by looking at their appearances.
On the big table, the king of Shu is the mainstay, and the people sitting around are some elderly middle-aged and elderly people.
Among them, there are also several familiar faces, such as Zheng Tai'a, the head of the Zheng family.
The head of the Chen family took Bai Song to the seat, and it was sitting at the big table that the entire banquet hall was lively.
Who would have thought that the one who could make many celebrities in Jixian County wait was actually a milky kid!
Before this kid came, everyone had heard the prince say that he would wait for him to come before the feast.
After all, there are only a few people who know Bai Song, not to mention the younger juniors, and the heads of the major clans who were present did not expect it.
This is the highest level of Vanity Fair in Jixian County, a kid, where did he come from?
"Who is this man? Why sit in that position? ”
"That's it, one person caused us to wait for so long, and he actually let the head of the Chen family greet us personally."
The juniors below are chattering.
But the few who really recognized Bai Song were not too surprised, but some emotion.
Zheng Liangqiu looked at Bai Song, his eyes flashed, who would have thought that the Hanmen, who had been despised by himself, would be able to have an equal relationship with his fathers before he left in less than a year.
Thinking about the past, if there were less prejudices and more sincerity, relying on his relationship with Xiang'er, maybe the Zheng family and him would not have such a deep contradiction, and maybe the Zheng family would not be in such an awkward position as it is now.
"Bai Song! How are you?! ”
Among the juniors, one of them couldn't help but slap the table and stand up, pointing at Bai Song with a look of indignation.
This person is Chen Xirong, the eldest lady of the Chen family.
As soon as Chen Xirong's words came out, the crowd silently chanted Bai Song's name.
The name of Bai Song is no longer unfamiliar in Jixian County.
Open a restaurant, say the Three Kingdoms, make bamboo paper, and sit in the first capital of Youzhou.
What's not the most talked-about thing in the county lately?
It turned out that he was Bai Song!
The heads of the houses at the table gradually understood that they had also heard a lot of things.
Just because he sits in the first capital of Youzhou, this person is enough to come up to this flower boat.
It's just that this kid has no qualifications after all, so let the dignified prince wait, this face is inevitably too big, right?
How did they know that if they hadn't seen this son, Li Zhan, the king of Shu, would not even have come to this party.
Tonight, he personally came to see off this regrettable young man.
Now seeing Bai Song coming, with only a little maid by his side, Li Zhan smiled again.
At this moment, the guard behind him stepped forward and lowered his voice and asked, "Lord Wang, do you want to do it directly?" ”
