Chapter 447 The Palace Master’s Wife is a Male 28
After watching for a while, she turned to look at the two people who had been quietly closing their eyes and showing no interest in the outside world, and blinked.
Knowing that both of them were asleep, she asked aloud: "Palace Master, Sister Ran, why don't we go ashore? The lights outside are on."
Hearing this, Qing Wu opened his eyes, turned his head and looked outside. When he saw that the lights were on outside, he nodded: "Then let's go up."
After saying that, he picked up the white cat mask on the coffee table and put it on.
Where there are lights, there are lantern riddles.
Guessing lantern riddles is the most popular activity during the Qiqiao Festival.
Qingwu and the other three walked to the place where everyone was gathered around to guess lantern riddles and stopped.
A scholar pointed to a lantern hanging on the wall. An old man with white hair and bright eyes took down a rabbit lantern and read aloud the riddle attached to it: "Month after month, month after month, the months are closely connected. One word.”
As soon as he finished reading, the scholar smiled confidently: "Friend's friend."
"Congratulations to this young man for answering the riddle correctly." The old man smiled and handed the lantern to him.
Afterwards, everyone was very enthusiastic. Anyway, if you answered the question incorrectly or the answer came out, it would not matter, so you would be laughed at. But if you answered the question correctly, you would get a lantern, which was not a loss.
Gu Yuling squeezed to the front with Qingwu and Xiaoran. She pointed at a fox lantern, "Grandpa, I want to guess that!"
"Good girl," the old man took it off, then stroked his long white beard and read out a riddle: "Why kill someone and silence them, just type one word."
"Huh?" Gu Yuling was confused after hearing this question.
He wrinkled his chin and thought seriously for a moment, realizing that he couldn't answer.
The old man smiled and said, "A girl can ask for help from the people around her. A lantern only has one chance."
She immediately turned her head to look at the Palace Master.
Qingwu glanced at her and met her eyes asking for help. She smiled slightly and said the answer in a flat voice: "D."
"Congratulations girl!"
After getting the fox lantern, Miss Gu smiled with crooked eyebrows and admired Qing Wu. Seeing this, Qingwu turned his head slightly and asked Xiao Ran beside him: "Which one do you like?"
Xiaoran was a little surprised. She had never liked these gadgets, but the palace owner asked, and she was obviously very interested in answering the questions.
Looking at the lanterns of different shapes, she finally chose a very regular round lantern.
The riddle above is: "Miluo, guess an idiom."
It’s just two words, but it requires a four-word answer. This is too difficult.
As soon as this question came up, everyone present looked embarrassed and looked at the little girl in green.
Before Qingwu started to fight, someone said: "Old man, are you sure you are not trying to trouble this girl with your riddle?"
The old man twirled his beard and shook his head, smiling proudly: "No, no, no."
Qingwu raised his eyebrows, his bright red lips parted slightly: "Every morning and evening."
The old man's hand stroking his beard paused, and his eyelids couldn't help but twitch.
Qingwu looked at him: "Grandpa, could I be wrong?"
The other party's eyes were complicated: "...right."
This question came to him by chance. It stumped many people at the time, but this girl came up with the answer so quickly, without thinking, and seemed to be very sure of her answer.
Everyone was thinking about this answer, but they couldn't connect Miluo and Chaosanmusi at all, and they were a little doubtful.
The old man tore off the riddle on the lantern and showed everyone the answer behind the note.
Qingwu, who got the lantern, handed the lantern to Xiaoran.
Gu Yuling scratched her head and asked in confusion: "Sister Xiao, why are you so busy?"
The people around him suddenly quieted down and listened. Even the old man looked at the girl in green when he heard the words.
