Chapter 72 Guessing the riddle

Chapter 72 Riddle

"The word Jiang, right?" Yunbei actually knew the answer after just one glance. It was too simple and had no technical content. However, he was not the kind of person to show off. He looked at it for a while and then pretended to come up with the answer.

Look at it and answer the shopkeeper's words.

"That's right, that's right. The young master is amazing. He must have studied in school. He is so knowledgeable at such a young age." The shopkeeper of the teahouse complimented Yunbei, then ordered someone to take down the fish lantern, and gave an excited look with a wink.

of Yundong.

"Yes, why didn't I think that half full and half empty means that half of the word "full" means three points of water, and half of the word "empty" means "work", which together means "jiang". This young man is really smart."

After hearing Yunbei's words, a passerby onlookers suddenly understood.

"This riddle means that scholars are smart and can answer the questions. Common people like us can't figure it out and spend their money in vain." A man onlookers said naively.

"Haha." After hearing this man's words, the crowd burst into laughter. Of course, these laughters were not meant to be ridiculing.

The shopkeeper of the tea house was also a wonderful person. He immediately repeated the rules for participating in answering questions. He also specifically said that even if the answer was wrong, there would be gifts. Some people who wanted to give it a try were interested and gave them one after another.

The money riddle made the shopkeeper happy.

Yunbei looked at the people watching, and they all took part, with a friendly smile on his face. When he turned around, he saw the two sisters Da Ya and Er Ya who were silent next to his parents. He asked the two cousins

What does the girl like? She answered two more questions correctly, took two lanterns and gave them to Da Ya and Er Ya. The two girls showed happy and bright smiles on their faces and said thank you: "Thank you, second cousin."

Yunbei smiled and touched the heads of the two of them without replying. When he was about to take his family away, the tea shop owner said: "Young master, can you still answer the questions? We have better lanterns here. If you are interested, you can try it."

try."

The shopkeeper sincerely invites Yunbei to continue answering the questions. With such a person here, their teahouse will be able to sell more tea. Oh, no. Give away a few more cups.

"Thank you shopkeeper for your kindness. I have already won four lanterns for my siblings, so I won't continue. We have to go shopping elsewhere." Yunbei thanked the shopkeeper and said goodbye.

It's a pity for the shopkeeper. The young man is good-looking, and the whole family is good-looking, especially the girl in the old lady's arms. She is even more adorable. She just answered the question with a lot of effort.

The girl blushed and looked at Yunbei and the others.

At the beginning of the first question, maybe those who were hesitant participated in the guessing in the hope that if others could guess correctly, I could also guess correctly. Later, a group of boys and girls came, mostly because of the appearance of the Yunbei family.

When it was time to come, there were also some ladies and gentlemen who came around after seeing Yunxi and Da Ya Er Ya. They were good-looking and had cute and delicate looks. When they saw someone starting to guess riddles, they started to move.

I thought about it and wanted to try it.

"It's just a living sign. It's a pity." The shopkeeper shook his head sadly, looked at the Yun family leaving in the distance, turned back to his stall and continued to attract customers.

The Yun family continued to walk forward and saw someone placing river lanterns by the river to make wishes. Yunnan took Tong to buy some beautiful lanterns and gave one to his grandparents and one to his parents. Yunxi, Yundong

Da Ya and Er Ya each had a separate lantern and asked them to make wishes and place it on the river. As for the one in Yunbei, Yunnan said that the second brother should buy it himself.

Mrs. Zhao bluntly said that she and Old Man Yun were as old as each other, so they spent money on river lanterns. A lantern actually cost fifty cents, which made Mrs. Zhao feel bad. When Yunbei went to guess riddles before, Mrs. Zhao didn't feel bad.

Her grandson's reputation as a genius is not for nothing. Those puzzles are like playing house to her grandson. He will definitely not guess wrong. Look, what her old lady said is absolutely right. He gets four for nothing.

What a nice lantern.

Now the eldest grandson spent money to buy it, which made Mrs. Zhao feel very distressed. She spent several hundred coins, which could have been much better if she had just bought grain.

"Grandma, grandpa makes a wish, I don't feel bad. When my dear baby grows up, he will earn a lot of money. Give it to grandma and let grandma spend it as she pleases." Yunxi patted her little chest and said in assurance.

"Oh, Guobao is really a little sweetheart to me. I'm just waiting for you to make money for me in the future." Mrs. Zhao felt very happy after hearing her granddaughter's words.

"Nai, when Erya and I grow up, we will also earn money for you to spend, so that you can be the most envied old lady in Yunjia Village." Daya rarely talks at ordinary times, but what she said today shocked Mrs. Zhao.

Then there is happiness.

"Yes, grandma, when I grow up, I want to open a restaurant, let grandma and grandpa be the shopkeepers, and let the master chef cook a lot of delicious food for grandma and grandpa, and the money earned by grandma and grandpa will

You can spend whatever you want." Erya said to Mrs. Zhao and Old Man Yun, saying that at a young age they already had the ability to flatter others.

Da Ya and Yun Xi secretly rolled their eyes and complained: "I didn't expect you to be such a Er Ya, a little sycophant, and you were so thoughtful that you took Grandpa with you. Well, they admitted that they were the losers.

Already."

Mrs. Zhao looked at what her three granddaughters said to her, and said proudly: "Look, look, who said that baby girls are losers? Those people in the village who said baby girls are losers are all heartless.

Son, which grandson can be as filial and filial as the daughter of her old Yun family? All the grandchildren of her old Yun family are good."

Yunnan saw several sisters trying to persuade his grandma, but he still didn’t say anything about his grandma. His face suddenly looked very proud. Yunnan looked puzzled: "." What’s going on? What did the sisters say? What do you think of your grandma?

Proud? Did I miss something? No?

Yunnan was very puzzled, but he also tried to persuade: "Yes, grandma, it's rare for you and me to come out. You see, there are many ladies and gentlemen like you putting out river lanterns. You and I should try it too."

.”

Yunyi saw that his children were trying to persuade his mother, so he quickly said: "Mom, this is all the younger generation's wish. You can play with my father too. We are all out now, so don't worry about how much money we spend."

Mrs. Zhao looked at the whole family and asked her and her wife to put out river lanterns. Why are they being pretentious? They spent all the money to let them go, so she borrowed the Poxia donkey and said, "Since you have said so, let's go. I'll do it when I get here."

Have fun, old man, let’s learn from the children and put out river lanterns to make wishes.”

"Okay, whatever you say will happen, I'll just follow you." Old Man Yun answered Mrs. Zhao's words as if you were the one making the decision.

While his family was talking, Yuntian was the first to walk to the shore and put the lit river lantern in the river. He also followed the example of some girls, clasped his hands and closed his eyes, making some unknown wish.

After the release, they waved to everyone to come quickly. Yun Dong and Da Ya Er Ya took Yun Xi, who had been put on the ground by Mrs. Zhao, and walked over together. The four children were all good-looking and cute, which made some onlookers look at them.

They, the young wives and mothers-in-law all praised: "The children of this family are really good at growing up. They are all smart and cute."

Some young wives who have just gotten married hope to have a pair of good-looking and clever children like Yunxi and the others in the future.

What the Yun family didn't know was that among this group of people, there was a man who looked ordinary and as thin as a stick. He glanced at Yun Xi and the others vaguely, then winked with his companions, and the man withdrew.

The crowd walked in one direction.

Mrs. Zhao and her old man also set off the river lanterns with the children. Everyone closed their eyes and made a wish. After making their wishes, a few people continued walking along the roadside.

At noon, Da Ya and Er Ya, because her mother made a big fuss at her grandmother's house, went back to Yun's house without eating. On the way here, they ate some dried meat pancakes brought by Mrs. Zhao and played some

After a while, I was already very hungry, so I said, "Auntie, Erya and I are hungry."

"Yes, it's not too late now. Let's go have something to eat first, and then go out to continue playing. By the way, we can find an inn and book a room. We can continue after the arrangements are made." Li Wanrou heard what Da Ya Er Ya said.

It occurred to them that their family hadn't had dinner yet, so the group stopped to see where there was an inn.
