Dressed as a little farmer's lucky treasure, God sends blessings and asks for forgiveness
Chapter 221 Staying in an Inn
It’s just a lantern, but the shopkeeper is still very generous.
"I know this." Zhao Shihui was not far behind. The key was not to lose. He also wanted a lamp.
A lamp that I can give to my little sister.
"Then young master, please tell us about it." The shopkeeper nodded with a smile.
“Its body is round and hairless, it’s neither an orange nor a peach. It spends a few nights in the clouds and fog, and then it takes off its green clothes and puts on a red robe. (Name a plant) This is a persimmon.” Zhao Shihui looked at the shopkeeper with an expression as if he was about to give the answer.
"You're right." The shopkeeper's smile was a bit forced. These two people were here to cause trouble.
"I want to sing one too. This one, this one, is the answer to the riddle chestnut?" Zhao Shimin looked at the shopkeeper happily.
The shopkeeper's face didn't look very good, but he said with the patience of a businessman: "You have to be sure, don't ask me. If you ask me, it won't count."
"It's chestnut. My answer is chestnut." Zhao Shimin thought for a while and said with certainty.
"Little hedgehog, with a fur coat. When he takes off the coat, he reveals a purple robe. Under the robe he wears a red velvet coat, and inside the coat there sleeps a baby. This is a chestnut." Zhao Shihui looked at the shopkeeper suspiciously. I thought the shopkeeper wouldn't cheat me.
Zhao Shihui looked at the shopkeeper with a doubtful expression. The shopkeeper's face twitched twice and he replied, "Miss, your answer is correct. This lantern is yours. There are many fun things ahead. Why don't you go and take a look?" The shopkeeper greeted her with a smile and said tremblingly.
I can’t afford it, I really can’t afford it. If I light another one, the people behind me will have less chance to win tonight.
The key point is that the kid who was thought to be just joining in the fun turned out to be so knowledgeable.
I met a master.
"Oh yeah, I have a lantern too." Zhao Shimin smiled while holding the lantern.
"I'm the only one who doesn't have one." Zhao Shiying pouted. Unwilling to admit defeat, she looked at the riddles and found a very simple one.
Although she had never learned it, her smart brain felt that this was the answer.
"Little sister, I'll give it to you." Zhao Shihui handed the lantern to Zhao Shiying lovingly.
"Second brother, I want to win one myself. I can't lose." Zhao Shiying also emphasizes the spirit of not losing.
Wang Ronghua laughed, Zhao Guocheng was helpless, didn't he hear the shopkeeper had just chased everyone away, if he ordered another one, would he be asked to pay directly or be chased away?
"Hey! A kid as young as you can guess riddles? Try to guess. If you guess it right, I will give you two. How about it?" said the shopkeeper with a smile.
It definitely won’t work for such a young child.
"Really? Is there any limit to which one I can guess?" Zhao Shiying asked with a grin, thinking to herself that this shopkeeper was a really good person.
"No, you can guess the riddles here at random. If you guess one correctly, I will give you another one. That means you can get two lanterns for each riddle you guess." The shopkeeper explained.
"Really? The shopkeeper doesn't lie?" Zhao Shiying confirmed again with a little disbelief.
"Of course it's true, do you want to guess?" The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows. How dare he not believe him? As the shopkeeper of a shop, how could he be short of a child's lantern? Although he felt a little sad to see the lanterns in the hands of several children, he was capable.
"You have to guess, as long as you don't regret it. I'm going to guess the riddle, the answer is 'Ji', give me two lanterns!" Zhao Shiying grinned.
The shopkeeper was stunned. He didn't expect the little girl to be so fast.
"Can you read?" The shopkeeper stared in disbelief. A little girl whose hair hasn't even fully grown yet can actually read and guess riddles. Who would believe it if he told others about it?
"I know it, but not much. It just so happens that I know the word in the riddle." Zhao Shiying grinned and saw the shopkeeper's mouth twitching. She was happy and let you look down on me.
"I keep my word and give you two lanterns." The shopkeeper handed the two lanterns to Zhao Shiying and left. He stopped playing and went into the store.
"Haha...thank you, shopkeeper." Zhao Shiying smiled and held the lantern, laughing at the same time. She was amused by the shopkeeper.
"Grandpa Tai, I'll give you a lantern." Zhao Shiying said and handed one of the lanterns to Grandpa Tai.
"Hey, I have one too." Old Master Tai was very surprised. He immediately took the lantern and started looking at it. He found it very rare.
"Mother, I'll give you this lantern." Zhao Shiying said, and then handed the only lantern in her hand to Wang Ronghua.
"Don't you want to play yourself?" Wang Ronghua raised an eyebrow.
Zhao Guocheng blinked.
"It's okay. It's the same if I play after you stop playing." Zhao Shiying said obediently. Although she was reluctant in her heart, she knew that she had to give it to her mother first. Her father would definitely not play.
"Mom is an adult now, so she doesn't want to play with this lantern anymore. You can play with it." Wang Ronghua shook her head and handed the lantern back to Zhao Shiying.
"Okay then." Zhao Shiying said with a smile.
"Why not give it to me?" Zhao Guocheng raised his eyebrows. The little girl was partial.
"Then let daddy play with it." Zhao Shiying smiled and held it out to Zhao Guocheng.
"I'm just teasing you. I don't want to play. You just have fun. Let's go to the front and see if there's anything fun to do." Zhao Guocheng said with a smile, and walked forward holding Zhao Shiying.
Zhao Shiying got the lantern she liked as she wished and was in a good mood.
Everyone is in a good mood.
They simply walked forward, stopping from time to time, and watching the fun from time to time as they were curious about everything.
The few of them wandered around until very late and then found an inn to stay in.
Fortunately, they arrived at the right time. The inn was originally fully occupied, but suddenly someone checked out, leaving two rooms vacant.
It just so happened that Zhao Guocheng and his family came, and they arrived at the right time. It is better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early.
After a few people checked in, they couldn’t fall asleep for a while because they were too excited to play.
"Wife, why don't we ask the waiter to get some hot water for the children to wash?" Zhao Guocheng asked.
"Okay, go ahead and I'll watch them," Wang Ronghua nodded.
Zhao Guocheng went downstairs to order hot water, which was quickly delivered to the room.
By the time everyone had washed up, Zhao Shiying was already feeling sleepy.
Zhao Shihui, Zhao Shisheng and Zhao Shimin still couldn't sleep. They were still chattering about what they had just seen and heard.
Wang Ronghua and Zhao Guocheng smiled and tapped a few people's noses.
"You two brothers should go to the next room and sleep. Your father will sleep with you later," said Wang Ronghua.
"I understand, mother." Zhao Shisheng said, and walked towards the next room with a giggle.
Zhao Shihui followed closely behind.
"Then I'll go to sleep too." After saying that, Zhao Shimin began to take off her clothes and lay down in the quilt, snuggling close to her younger sister.
Looking at her little sister's sleeping face, she smiled happily.
Before I knew it, I fell asleep.
Wang Ronghua watched as the two children fell asleep. After confirming that Zhao Guocheng and Old Man Tai had returned to their rooms, she also locked the door and went to sleep.
Early the next morning.
After the Zhao family had breakfast at the inn and paid the bill, they drove the ox cart back home.
On the way back, the children were still talking about what happened last night with great interest. Grandpa Tai just watched them talk quietly, smiling from time to time and interjecting from time to time. It was a very happy occasion.
