Chapter 379 Winning the Lantern

“Which lantern do you want, I will help you win.”

Gu Jingzhe pointed at the sea of ​​lanterns in front of her and asked Lu Zhaozhao, not realizing at all that Tong Huaqiong and Old Mrs. Huang has already arrived.

“I want that lotus lantern.” Lu Zhaozhao pointed to the lotus lantern not far away.

The girl’s pretty face is as pure and beautiful as a jasmine flower under the light.

The lantern seller took down the riddles and read them to Gu Jingzhe.

Gu Jingzhe guessed the answer correctly without any hesitation. The lamp seller smiled and handed the lamp to Gu Jingzhe, who took it in his hand and handed it to Lu Zhaozhe.

Lu Zhaozhao took it into his hands, and the smile on his face did not stop the whole time.

From this moment, Tong Huaqiong knew that she could not stop the feelings between Gu Jingzhe and Lu Zhaozhao.

If she really wants to break up, she will be tied with Jiao Zhongqing’s mother, Lu You’s mother, as the evil mother-in-law who broke up her son’s marriage in history, and the old pious woman who was written in poems and books by literati for future generations to scold. .

The only thing she could do was to stop Gu Jingzhe from going astray.

Fortunately, Lu Zhaozhao is now involved in the Lu family's business. Even if Gu Jingzhe is taken away by the princess again in this life, she will not be as isolated and helpless as she was in her previous life.

What's more, Lu Zhaoyang's fate has been completely rewritten. With Lu Zhaoyang here, Gu Jingzhe did not dare to betray Lu Zhaozhao easily.

Old Mrs. Huang looked at the beautiful couple Gu Jingzhe and Lu Zhaozhao and tested whether Tong Huaqiong had any intention of marrying the Lu family.

Tong Huaqiong changed the topic.

Gu Jingzhe hasn't even found a scholar yet. Even if she doesn't object to him renewing his relationship with Lu Zhaozhao in this life, it's too early to get engaged now.

As Gu Jingzhe won the lantern riddle, the people around him could not hold back and participated in the lantern riddle guessing game, and the atmosphere was heated up.

Most people guessed wrong.

After all, merchants want to do business, and most lantern riddles are designed to be tricky and weird, with the main purpose being to get people who admire the lanterns to participate, rather than to win all the lanterns.

In the past, Lu Zhaoyang was in poor health and had rarely participated in lively entertainment activities like this.

At this time, I was particularly curious to see such a lantern riddle guessing activity. With Huang Jingshan in front of me, I was very motivated to win.

Whenever a tricky lantern riddle is thrown out, Lu Zhaoyang can guess it right with just a little thought.

Huang Jingshan, who is usually aloof, is also enthusiastic about participating today.

Lu Zhaoyang guessed one correctly, and Huang Jingshan answered the next one. In the end, the crowd onlookers stopped guessing the answer, and just watched the two of them throwing answers back and forth.

The two of them guessed all the lantern riddles carefully prepared by the merchant.

The waiter's face changed from happy to calm at first, and finally to helpless. He read riddles mechanically and took out the lamp mechanically.

Soon, the lights were piled in front of Lu Zhaoyang and Huang Jingshan.

Man'er, Xiaolong Yaozu and Duoer clapped their hands happily around the lantern.

Several children were discussing which one to choose.

Huang Jingshan let the children choose.

The other children who were watching had envious looks in their eyes.

“How can I bring them back after winning so many lanterns?” Old Mrs. Huang smiled so hard that she couldn’t even see her teeth.

Her granddaughter and grandson-in-law really make her look good.

"That is to say, fifteen can use this lamp, and it will eat ashes when it is taken back." Tong Huaqiong said.

Huang Jingshan said: "Why don't we give the lights to the children."

There were many children watching at the scene.

Not every child has lanterns to choose from.

After all, the price of a lamp is enough to buy a pack of salt, and many families are reluctant to spend this money to buy lanterns for their children.

Lu Zhaoyang also had this intention and nodded in agreement.

Tong Huaqiong said quickly from the side: "Ms. Huang and Mr. Lu won these lights for the children." We can't just do good deeds and not publicize them.

This wave must give Huang Jingshan a good reputation for being kind-hearted.

When the children onlookers heard that the lanterns were about to be lighted, they crowded forward in a swarm.

Huang Jingshan, Lu Zhaoyang, Gu Jingzhe and others stood in front of the lamps, lighting up lamps one by one.

“Don’t crowd.”

"Everyone has one."

Taking the opportunity to hand out the lantern, Lu Zhaoyang turned around and quietly handed the money for the lantern to the merchant.

We can’t let the boss lose money.

The boss said too much, then pointed to the lamp on the shelf and said: "You can buy the lamp on this shelf with the extra money."

Soon the children in the whole street knew it. Miss Huang won all the lanterns and distributed them to everyone. Children who did not have lanterns ran to get lanterns.

This scene naturally fell in the eyes of Tong Huaqiong and others. Huang Yuanwai praised repeatedly and became more and more satisfied with the marriage that Tong Huaqiong gave to the mediator.

"This lantern is for children who don't have a lantern. Why do you come to get it if you have one? If you get it, the other children who don't have lanterns will not get it." Man'er suddenly pointed at a child and said.

Tong Huaqiong saw Xiaolong grabbing the wrist of a child. The child Tong Huaqiong also knew was Chunwang, Chunni's younger brother.

Chunwang tried to hit Man'er by taking advantage of his height, but Xiaolong grabbed his wrist.

Tong Huaqiong hates Chunwang very much.

Chunwang bought two lanterns for his family. When he heard the former hair lantern stuffing the lanterns to Mrs. Luo, she came to Huang Jingshan to ask for them.

Although Xiaolong was small, he was very strong. He clenched Chunwang's wrist tightly. Chunwang was in pain and couldn't hold the lantern he was holding. Man'er took it off and handed it to the person next to him. Lantern for kids.

“I’ll beat you every time I see you.” Xiaolong said.

Chunwang struggled a bit and saw Tong Huaqiong and Su Chengmin staring at him eagerly and did not dare to fight back.

"Mother Luo, you already have two lanterns in your hand, why did you let Chunwang come to get them? This is not how you take advantage. Children are not sensible, so don't you understand either?"

Mr. Luo saw her grandson being bullied, He came over with two lanterns and was stabbed unceremoniously by Tong Huaqiong.

Everyone around them expressed their disdain for Granny Luo's behavior.

Even those families who already had lanterns but wanted to take advantage of it and let their children receive lanterns left in despair.

Soon, Huang Jingshan, Gu Taohua and others finished handing out lanterns.

"This is for you." Su Chengmin said to Gu Taohua while holding a lantern.

Gu Taohua just helped Huang Jingshan distribute lanterns and even sent out her own lantern. Su Chengmin left a peach blossom lantern and handed it to Gu Taohua.

“Ah, this is exactly the peach blossom lantern I want to keep.” Gu Taohua said with a smile.

She had already fallen in love with this peach blossom lantern. Because there were so many children receiving the lantern, she was too embarrassed to hide it and keep it for herself.

When she was regretting that the peach blossom lantern was taken away, she didn’t expect Su Chengmin to hide it for her.

Gu Taohua held up a peach blossom lantern and smiled like a peach blossom.

Su Chengmin raised his eyes and saw Gu Taohua's smiling eyes through the lantern.

The lights on the 15th in Yanguan Town were incomparable to those in Shengjing, but he felt that both the moonlight and the lights tonight were much more beautiful than those in Shengjing.

At the end of the street there is a juggling troupe performing fire-eating.

Let alone children, even adults cannot handle this curious and exciting performance.

Especially Xiaolong, who grew up in the palace and almost never went out of the palace, let alone watched folk performances outside.

At this time, seeing it with my own eyes, my eyes widened with curiosity. I took Man'er's hand and got into the lively crowd.
