In the book, I was fed by my sister
Chapter 84 Guessing Lantern Riddles
Song Ran hugged his little sister tightly and squeezed to the front of the stall.
"There are so many beautiful lanterns. Which one do you like? I'll win it for you!" Su Xiaoxiao said arrogantly, pointing at the row of lanterns in front.
"Rabbit, rabbit!" Song Li said. She almost forgot that Li Zi asked her to buy a lantern.
"Hey, young lady, you can guess the riddles three times for five cents. You have to pay first before you can open the riddle." The stall owner came forward and stopped Su Xiaoxiao's hand from checking the riddle.
Su Xiaoxiao was a little embarrassed. She had not noticed this rule before, so she quickly apologized and handed over five copper coins.
The stall owner took the money, weighed it in his hand, then looked up at Su Xiaoxiao and asked, "Girl, which lantern riddle do you want to guess?"
Su Xiaoxiao pointed at the rabbit-shaped lantern, "That rabbit lantern!"
The boss used a thin bamboo pole to lift the wooden sign underneath the lantern, revealing the puzzle.
"One side is red, one side is green, and one side is afraid... Hey, I haven't finished reading it yet!" Su Xiaoxiao stared. How can she guess the puzzle without letting others finish reading it?
"You are the only one who has money, how can you read it out! You read it so slowly, if people around you know about it, they will give you advice, then I will not be able to do business!"
After hearing what the stall owner said, the crowd of onlookers began to talk: "You, the boss, are too stingy."
The stall owner didn't care and retorted: "The stalls in front of us all sell lanterns for 20 cents each. If you think my stalls are not good enough, you can go buy some from me!"
Su Xiaoxiao heard what the stall owner said and said loudly: "Then come again!"
The stall owner hung up a new riddle and said, "Are you ready? You have to read it faster this time."
Su Xiaoxiao and the people around her were all concentrating on watching the puzzle that was about to be solved, and in the blink of an eye, the wooden sign fell back.
"Oh! It's boring!"
Just as everyone was sighing and the stall owner was feeling proud, Su Xiaoxiao shouted, "Tian! The answer is Tian, which means field!"
The people around her heard her words and murmured, "There are mountains on all sides, and the mountains are connected to each other... It really is the shape of a field!"
"Yes! Yes! That's the word. The girl is smart!"
The stall owner's face suddenly turned ugly, but he still had to admit: "You are lucky."
Su Xiaoxiao accepted the rabbit lantern and said proudly, "I still have one more chance!"
The stall owner asked unhappily, "Which lantern do you think it is this time?"
Su Xiaoxiao turned her head to look at Song Li, "Which one do you like? I'll win another one for you."
"The biggest one, the one on top!"
Su Xiaoxiao immediately turned around and said to the stall owner, "Boss, hang the one on top!"
The stall owner felt a little nervous, because that was the treasure of his stall, but he had to reveal the puzzle.
"Half-covered scented fan..."
This time, Su Xiaoxiao had just said four words when the stall owner was ready to lower the pole. But at this moment, the bamboo pole strangely bent.
Su Xiaoxiao also saw the puzzle clearly.
"Half-covered scented fan, go down to the east building!"
"couch!"
"Yes!" everyone cheered.
The stall owner waved his hands desperately, "It doesn't count! You saw it just now, the bamboo pole is bent!"
A big man walked up to the stall owner. He was a burly man, more than half a head taller than the stall owner, and said, "I didn't see it! Who saw it?"
The crowd around them echoed: "No! No!"
"Please take the lamp, stall owner! If you don't want it, I can help you get it!"
"Okay! Okay!" The stall owner waved his hand.
Su Xiaoxiao took the big lantern and smiled brightly: "Let me guess three more times!"
"Go away, I don't want to do business with you anymore!"
Su Xiaoxiao thanked the big man.
The big man waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. I was just cheated out of fifteen cents by this guy. Fortunately, the girl solved the problem and I felt relieved."
It seems that many people have fallen for this trick.
Song Ran and the other two watched the lively acrobatic performances and the colorful lantern festival together. Passing by the jewelry stalls, they were attracted by the exquisite jewelry and couldn't walk anymore.
Surrounded by the two of them, Song Li was like a cute rag doll, allowing them to choose clothes for her.
"This little rabbit hairpin is so cute!" Song Ran picked up an exquisite hairpin, his eyes revealing love.
"The peach blossom on this hairpin is also very unique. It will look great when you wear it." Su Xiaoxiao picked up another hairpin and gently gestured on Song Li's head.
"Little sweetheart, let's go get our ears pierced. These little flower earrings are so pretty!"
"Come here, let me put a flower ornament on you." Su Xiaoxiao picked up a delicate flower ornament and gently put it on Song Li's forehead.
"Hahaha, it looks like the lucky dolls in the New Year pictures."
……
"What do you wish for?"
After playing around at the Lantern Festival, the three of them came to the river. The sky was dotted with stars, and Kongming lanterns were flying all over the sky, which was like a dream and intoxicating. They held in their hands exquisite lanterns, which were made of thin bamboo and covered with transparent gauze. A candle was lit inside, emitting a soft and warm light.
Su Xiaoxiao laughed and said, "I want to make a lot of money and win the lawsuit. What about you?"
Song Ran smiled and said, "I just hope everything will be safe and smooth."
Song Li looked at the lanterns all over the river, carefully put the lantern into the water, and watched it drift with the current, slowly drifting away. She closed her eyes and made a sincere wish: May this be the case year after year, with peace and happiness.
The market gradually dispersed, and Su Xiaoxiao said that she had booked accommodation, and then said goodbye to the two.
Song Ran and the other person walked into the alley, leaving the hustle and bustle behind them.
"Knock knock knock," Song Ran knocked on the door gently, and the sound echoed in the empty alley.
"Aunt, we are back."
Heavy footsteps were heard from the door, accompanied by an indescribable strange atmosphere. Song Li's nerves immediately tensed up, and she keenly smelled the different smell in the air:
Bloody smell!
