Everyone burst into laughter and booed one after another. The young master next to Liang Yanbei laughed and said, "Don't talk nonsense, just come up with the question."
"All right, here we come!" The old bustard grinned almost to her ears, she beckoned to the servants, and brought out a seven-foot-high card stand with red paper hanging on it, the old bustard reached out and tore the first one, and there was written on it He said, "A knife that floats in the water, has eyes but no eyebrows. Hit an animal."
As soon as the riddle came out, everyone present began to think about the answer, discussing in low voices. Wen Chan stared at Liang Yanbei's side face, and saw that his outline rubbed with red light was blurred and clear, his thick eyebrows were calm, and his eyes were slightly drooping. , seems to be thinking about the answer, standing quietly in the world.
Wen Chan felt that he was like a banished immortal who had fallen into the mortal world, and the more he looked at him, the more his heart beat violently.
After a while, Liang Yanbei said, "It's fish."
Those who were still struggling to figure out the answer suddenly realized when they heard it, and they all echoed, "That's right, it's fish."
The old bustard said, "Congratulations, Mr. Xiaolang, you got the answer right." Then, she tore off another piece of paper, and the next puzzle was revealed.
"After the Lantern Festival, willow sprouts. Make an idiom."
This time, Liang Yanbei was also very fast, even faster than the previous question. When everyone else was still reading the question, he said directly, "There is something wrong."
"Congratulations, Mr. Xiaolang, you got the answer right again." The old bustard clapped his palms twice with a smile, revealing the last question.
"Live with peace of mind, type a word." It is an anagram.
Answering this last question correctly, Liang Yanbei can choose any girl in Yufu Building, including the oiran, which makes many others envious.
Just when everyone was waiting for him to give the answer happily, he rolled his eyes and spread his hands with a smile, "This last question is a bit difficult, and I can't think it out."
Wen Chan came back to his senses, and then looked at the puzzle.
The people in the three circles inside and outside heard this, and they all exclaimed, regretted or gloated, and the son next to Liang Yanbei said loudly, "Brother Yanbei, aren't you? It's the last question, why can't you answer it?" up?"
He asked back, "Is it possible that you will? How about you answer it?"
"It's such a pity..." The young master's voice weakened.
Seeing that there was a lot of discussion and chaos in the field, the bustard waved her handkerchief and raised her voice, "How about this, this young gentleman is already unable to answer the riddle, if any son present can answer this riddle , whoever can pick a girl in my building."
This is a good thing, Liang Yanbei has answered the first four sets, only the last question is left, if anyone can answer it, it can be regarded as a big bargain.
But everyone can see that Liang Yanbei is dressed in extraordinary clothes and has an outstanding temperament. Many people even know that he is the son of the Liang family. How can anyone blatantly come to take advantage of him and touch his brow? So even if some people know the answer, they dare not stand up.
At this moment, Ah Fu suddenly turned his head and asked Wen Chan, "My lord, do you know the answer to the riddle?"
Wen Chan pursed his lower lip slightly, and said, "Living with peace of mind is a feast word."
After hearing this, Ah Fu was stunned for a moment, nodded as if enlightened, and then raised his arms and shouted, "My son said the answer to the riddle is a feast!"
Shuhua's face twitched in shock, and he quickly pulled his hand off and covered his mouth, but it was too late, this loud shout attracted everyone's attention, including Liang Yanbei.
They stared at Wen Chan, discussing in low voices, and occasionally heard two or three sentences.
"Isn't this a little girl?"
"Looks like a girl..."
As soon as Wen Chan raised his eyes, he met Liang Yanbei's gaze. The young man was separated by some distance, and there was inquiry and curiosity in his beautiful eyes.
After only looking at each other, Wen Chan quickly looked away, a hot current rushed straight to his forehead, he suddenly felt that his clothes were too thick, and he felt hot.
After looking Wen Chan over, the old bustard still had an impeccable smile and said, "Young gentleman, you got the answer right. According to the rules, you can choose the girls in my building. Come and see which one you want?"
Wen Chan glanced at Ah Fu, hid all his bewilderment well, and said in a low voice, "I didn't intend to answer the questions, it was my boy who spoke quickly, so let him pick the questions he answered."
As he spoke, he cast a glance at Shuhua, Shuhua knowingly pushed Ah Fu out, and just before he was liberated, Ah Fu turned sharply and threw himself in front of Wen Chan, aggrieved, "Young master, I am also for you, I see that you are always staring at the girl in the green dress, and you have always liked it tightly, so I want to take this opportunity... "
The people around laughed loudly after hearing this, Wen Chan felt as if a hammer was hitting his head, the pain was terribly painful, he said helplessly, "I will deal with you later."
Ah Fu pursed his lips obediently and stepped aside.
"Then, Mr. Xiaolang doesn't want this mystery answer anymore?" The bustard understood what he meant, and looked at Liang Yanbei with some embarrassment, "Then this..."
Liang Yanbei's smile didn't decrease but increased. He took the silver taels from the boy, and with a slight gesture, "I didn't answer the last question, so I should give fifty taels."
The old bustard smiled and came to take the money, "Xiao Langjun is really a neat person, next time I come to Yufulou, I will definitely entertain you well."
After Liang Yanbei sent her away with two or three polite words, he looked around again, and the person who looked like a little girl in a happy dress was gone.
After leaving the noisy place, Wen Chan opened his mouth and fined Ah Fu all the money he had earned in the past two months. This was a fatal blow to the money-loving Ah Fu, and he followed Wen Chan with his head drooping.
But after all, it is a young man's heart, but after a moment of depression, he put away the worries in his heart, and threw himself into the hustle and bustle of Yufu Street without forgetting.
The streets were bustling with laughter and laughter. After walking for a while, the waves in Wen Chan's heart were gently smoothed and turned into peace.
He has always liked lively occasions, where people drink wine, laugh and fight. As long as Wen Chan is in it, even as a bystander, he feels very comfortable, so after he became emperor in his previous life, he personally organized a grand hunting At the meeting, prominent officials and descendants of aristocratic families in the capital were summoned.
Although that hunt ended hastily with being assassinated, he himself received a lot of complaints...
"Little girl, let's take a look at the mask." The sound of hawking came from the side of the road, bringing Wen Chan's consciousness back to reality. He stopped and looked at the stall, only to see a long table full of various masks. The mask was also hung densely on the shelf beside it. The peddler picked up a butterfly mask with a plain white background and red patterns and said, "This one looks good, and it matches the girl's complexion."
Ah Fu said sharply, "Open your eyes and take a good look, my son doesn't look like a girl at all?"
His words startled the peddler, he looked at Wen Chan carefully again, and hurriedly changed his words, "Oh, it's my stupidity, I mistook such a handsome young man for a girl, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" But he said in his heart, you In what way does your son look like a girl
Wen Chan raised his eyes to look at him, stretched out his right hand from the hand warmer, and took the mask. The tentacles were a little cold, and the patterns on it were not exquisite, but generally looked good. He put down the mask again, and looked at him in a blink of an eye. The beast mask hanging on the side.
The peddler observed the situation, immediately took the mask from the shelf, and recommended it hard. In the end, Wen Chan generously bought three beast masks, and put them on Qin Qi Shu Hua and Ah Fu.
The already tall piano, chess, calligraphy and painting put on a vicious mask, and people passing by on the street were too frightened to approach after seeing it.
But Ah Fu still thought it was funny, and frightened a child into tears by baring his teeth.
The four of them were majestic and majestic, unimpeded in the crowd, and walked to a lively place, Wen Chan still squeezed in to join in the fun.
Four large shelves were placed in the center of the crowd, and each shelf was full of lanterns, shining brightly. Four tables were placed in the front of the crowd, with bows and arrows on them. When Wen Chan squeezed in, he saw the booth. The Lord stood by the table and said to the crowd, "...if you can't guess it, you will get one tael of silver for one lantern. If you guess ten lantern questions correctly, you will get the lantern on my head."
There is a lotus lantern hanging above the head of the stall owner, each petal is a different color, exuding gorgeous light under the light, and a long yellow tassel hangs from the tail of the lantern, which is amazing at first glance. Many people are moved by this lantern.
The original rule is to shoot a lantern with a bow and arrow. If the arrow misses, you have to pay one tael of silver. If you hit the lantern, you have to guess the puzzle on the lantern. If you guess correctly, you will get a lantern. You have to pay a tael of silver.
After guessing correctly, you don’t need to use lanterns, but continue to shoot lanterns. If you shoot ten lanterns in a row and guess the answer, you can get the lotus lantern hanging in mid-air. A few taels of silver, the rules are actually similar to the ones in Yufulou just now, but the ones here are not so expensive, and there are no beautiful girls.
Many women want that lotus lantern to encourage their husbands or relatives to shoot arrows, but even one tael of silver is not a small amount for ordinary people, so naturally no one will take a bow and arrow lightly.
Wen Chan felt that the lotus lantern was also pretty, so he said to the calligraphy and painting, "Go shoot arrows, let's take down that lotus lantern."
Calligraphy responded, walked out of the crowd, and picked up the bow and arrow on the table. His archery skills have always been excellent, and it is easy to shoot the lantern at this distance. The first lantern.
There was applause at the scene, and there was a momentum of booing.
The stall owner went over and took down the arrow-shot lamp, glanced at the words on it, and read aloud, "Listen up, young man, at the end of the year, there is no shortage of fish and rice, type a word."
This is actually very simple. Wen Chan quickly thought of the answer, but just as he opened his mouth to say it, he was stopped by a charming voice, "The answer is scales, scales of fish scales."
As soon as the voice came out, many people looked at her, Wen Chan even turned his head and saw her.
