Reborn farming life

Chapter 66

Li Yu took Granny Liu and the others to squeeze into the crowd, and finally squeezed in. Li Yu found out that it was the shopkeeper of a jewelry store. One side of the lantern was pasted with red paper, and only after asking the people next to it did they know that riddles were written on each of the twenty lanterns. Anyone who wants to guess the riddle can sign up for [-] Wen, and everyone who signs up will get a number plate.

After a while, wait for the shopkeeper to remove all the red paper on the lantern. Within half an hour, those who sign up can start to guess the riddles on the lantern, and then write down the corresponding answers. When the time is up, everyone can guess. The number of lanterns is graded, and each grade has a corresponding reward. If you guess all twenty lanterns correctly, you will get a bonus of 100 taels, and if you guess one lantern correctly, you will also get a lantern. Other levels also have different rewards.

Li Yu found it very interesting and thought that he would sign up to participate. With his quiz-guessing skills, he could guess half or all of the riddles correctly. In fact, the reward is not very important, but Li Yu just thought it was very interesting and wanted to join in. lively.

So Li Yu took out twenty Wen from his pocket and handed it to the shopkeeper, and got a number plate.Lian'er tugged at Li Yu's sleeve and whispered, "Miss? Can you do this? I think the participants are all educated people?" Li Yu raised her eyebrows and looked at Lian'er and said, "Why? In your heart, I am an unlearned person? So I am so useless in Lian Er's heart! Woohoo, so sad!" After finishing speaking, she put on a very hurt expression.

Lian Er became anxious when she heard this, and quickly waved her hands to explain, "No, no, Miss is the most knowledgeable and powerful person in Lian Er's heart, and she is the person Lian Er admires most! Lian Er really didn't mean that!" Lian Er The more he explained, the more anxious he became, fearing that Li Yu might misunderstand what he meant.Seeing that she was in such a hurry, Li Yu didn't tease her anymore, "Okay, okay, Lian Er, don't worry, I know Lian Er didn't mean that, Lian Er don't worry, at least sister can win a lantern and come back, Ann La, Ann!"

At this time, the shopkeeper saw that everyone was almost there, so he stood on the steps of the shop and began to speak, "Everyone, please be quiet, now I will let the old man talk about the rules, and the shop will hold this lantern riddle on the 15th Lantern Festival." Everyone is welcome to actively participate in the event. Today’s prizes are quite generous. I believe you have heard that. Answers from 100 to [-] will reward you with a beautiful lantern, and answers from [-] to [-] will reward you with a special silver bracelet or silver pattern. Ten taels, if you answer all the questions correctly, you will be rewarded with [-] taels of Wenyin! Hehe, all talents and interested friends are welcome to participate!"

After hearing this, Li Yu looked around. Most of the contestants holding number plates were elegantly dressed men like students and scholars. There were also some women participating, but there were flower protectors beside them.As if he was the only woman participating, Li Yu stuck out his tongue in his heart, wondering where his flower protector was pinching?
"Okay, are there any friends who don't have medicine to participate? Then we will start our guessing activity." Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, he was interrupted by a voice, "Wait, wait, I want to participate, too. I'm going to participate!"

Li Yu heard this voice very familiar, followed the reputation, and sure enough, he saw a woman in red pulling a man in white trying to squeeze through the crowd. Li Yu looked at this combination of red and white. Cores and single strands.I saw Shan Rui'er pulling a single chain and panting through the crowd to come to the front, and said to the shopkeeper of the jewelry store, "I, I, we also want to participate!"

"Hehe, girl, don't worry, we can wait for the girl for a while, I wonder if the two of you are together? Or are you going to participate alone?" The shopkeeper kindly looked at Shan Rui'er who was panting, and motioned her to take a break.

"Let's join together! Cousin! Give me the money!" Shan Rui'er finally came to rest, and turned her head to ask Shan Chain to pay the money confidently, and Shan Chain also cooperatively took out the money and handed it to the shopkeeper. The action is very skillful, it seems that the single chain has always been Shan Ruier's wallet
The shopkeeper took the money, handed them two number plates and said, "Then please come to the table and prepare, we will start right away."

Shan Ruier looked around for a while, and suddenly her eyes lit up and she ran over to Li Yu. Li Yu looked at Shan Ruier who was running over with a smile and said, "Run slower!"

"Wow! Sister Yu, you're here too! I haven't seen you for a long time! You don't know that I'm getting less and less free now. My mother won't let me out easily. Last time I finally came out." I got it, but found that your shop is closed! Afterwards, I was released until today. This is the opportunity that my cousin helped me say a lot of good things. I didn’t expect to meet you. It’s so great!" Shan Rui'er was really happy to see Li Yu, she kept talking, Shan Jian also saw Li Yu at this time, walked over and nodded to Li Yu, "I didn't expect to meet Miss Li here, what a coincidence."

Li Yu nodded back, "Yes, it's really a coincidence." After Li Yu finished speaking, he heard the shopkeeper order the staff to take off the red paper on the lantern, and then said, "Okay, everyone, please start, the time is half an hour Time, please hurry up!"

Seeing that the red paper was peeled off, Shan Ruier excitedly said to Li Yu, "Sister Yu, let's compete! Let's see who can guess the most!" Li Yu smiled and touched Shan Ruier's head and said, "Okay! Come on!"

"En! Sister Yu, come on!" After finishing speaking, he went to look at the riddles on the lanterns. Li Yu also walked to the first lantern and looked at the riddles on it. "Cross-dressing, no need to make up. Guess the word." Li Yuwei I closed my eyes and thought about it. This riddle uses the method of gain and loss, clutch, and disassembly and reassembly. "Cross-crossing Huadan" is obviously to "reverse-string" "Hua" and "Dan", especially "Dan" and "cross-stringing" become "a Japanese character under a horizontal line", and "Hua" is left for the next sentence to solve, "no need "Makeup" means that the word "hua" does not need to be filled with "hua", leaving "艹" and "a Japanese character under a horizontal line" to form the bottom character "Xi", so the answer to this puzzle is the word "Xi".

After Li Yu thought about the answer, he looked at the second riddle, "I was born in a wealthy family, and I often went in and out to enjoy the glory. Long live also passed on the imperial decree to be a flower hunter from generation to generation. Make a meal." Li Yu thought about it. It's bees.

Look at the third one again, "When the children under the steps face their backs, the Qingming makeup is the most suitable. The hair is broken and weak. Don't complain to the east wind. Guess one thing." This is a kite.

The fourth one is "Tianyun people have a lot of skills, and luck is rare even if they have meritorious deeds. Because of the chaos in the town, it's just because Yin and Yang can't figure it out. Fight one thing." This is an abacus.

Li Yu looked at them one by one, probably because he liked to guess riddles in his previous life and had a lot of contact with them, so when Li Yu saw No. 19, he guessed them all.Now there is only the last one left.Li Yu looked at the other people, some of them were still standing in the middle and pondering over the riddles above, of course, a few people had surpassed him and arrived in front of No. It seems difficult.Duan Jian and Shan Rui'er were already standing in front of the last lantern, Shan Rui'er frowned tightly, resting her cheek on her right hand and thinking hard, even Duan Jian looked serious in thought, which made her Li Yu was very curious, what kind of mystery puzzled so many people?

So Li Yu waited for a man in front of him to read it, and went up to look at it. He saw on the lantern that it said, "A knife is like a long wind destroying apricots. Type one word." Li Yu began to meditate after reading this lantern riddle. , "刀" can be interpreted as "刂", which seems to mean the word "镸 (zhang three tones)", which seems to be between yes and no.The use of "彡 (san sound)" as a metaphor for wind has been established by convention, and there is nothing wrong with it.The whistling long wind added a bit of murderous intent to the sharp knife, and the "Xing" that hit it was in a mess, and was tied together by the "shrink", which made the font of "Xing" flourish and change, although it was a bit bleak. , but it conforms to the law of lantern riddles.I think the answer is the word "鬎 (la four tones)".

After Li Yu finished guessing the riddles, he saw that no one around him seemed to have guessed it yet, and the time was almost up. Li Yu went back to the table and wrote down all the answers to the riddles, and then handed them over to the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper took the answer that Li Yu handed over and didn't look at it in a hurry, but said to Li Yu with a smile, "Miss is the first one to finish answering, please wait a moment, the time will be up soon, and we will come back when the time comes." How about checking together?" Li Yu walked back to Granny Liu and the others without any objection, and the time was up soon, and Li Yu looked at some of the people who submitted the answers with disappointment on their faces, while others were full of confidence look.

After Shan Ruier finished handing in the answers, she walked up to Li Yu angrily and asked, "Sister Yu, have you typed out all of them? I didn't type out the last one, and my face cousin didn't even guess it. It seems that I won't be able to get No.1." !"

Li Yu looked at Shan Ruier's frustrated look and comforted him, "Don't be discouraged, this is just a game, you can answer as many answers as you can, there is no need to be depressed about it, isn't it just for fun for you to participate in guessing lantern riddles? Do you still think about the 100 taels of silver as a dowry?"

Shan Ruier was teased by Li Yu, and the depressed mood just disappeared. It was not a big deal, and then she and Li Yu laughed and quarreled. He ordered people to hang the answers under each lantern, and the answers in his hand had already been checked.

The shopkeeper stroked his beard, smiled and looked at everyone with different expressions around him and said, "The answer has been given, and everyone must know how many answers you got right. Hehe, many people must have been puzzled by the last puzzle." Stop it, but someone typed it out. A total of two people answered the last riddle correctly, but unfortunately, one of them answered a wrong question earlier, so in the end only Mr. Wang answered all the questions correctly. This is the lantern riddle guessing activity. The final winner, this is a prize of 100 taels, and it belongs to the prince."
