Chapter 100: Captivity (1)
The eaves, big trees, and wooden fras on both sides of the street are hung with all kinds of lanterns, including those with animals, flowers, and landscape paintings. Each one looks exquisite and dazzling.
There were young girls eting to watch the lanterns together, pointing to a certain unique lantern and talking quietly; by the curved water, many people squatted on the pier to put river lanterns, and the lotus-shaped river lanterns were dotted in the calm. On the water, the lanterns on both sides complent each other, which is quite poetic.
Looking at this scene, Mo Yan couldn't help but have a faint smile on her face. Being in such an ancient scene, she realized very clearly that she had truly beco the "ancient person" in the book of her previous life.
Sister, look, that rabbit lantern is so cute! Xiner hugged Mo Yans arm and shook it excitedly.
Mo Yan ca back to her senses, followed her gaze, and saw a lifelike rabbit lantern hanging high on a wooden fra not far away, with a fat body, red eyes, and long The ears look really good.
Do you like it? Ill buy it for you!
Xin'er's eyes lit up and her little head nodded: "I like it, I like it very much."
Zhen'er was also greedy, waving Mo Yan's right hand and praying: "Sister, Zhen'er likes that yellow-skinned tiger, please buy it for too!"
Mo Yan agreed with a smile, and then asked Li Yan who was following him: "Swallow has taken a fancy to that lantern?"
Li Yan, who was looking east and west, reacted and quickly shook her head: "Sister Yan, I don't like anything. Just take a look at these."
Mo Yan saw that she was not looking at any of the lanterns, so he believed her words, took his younger siblings to the stall, pointed at the two lanterns and asked the boss, "How much do these two lanterns cost?"
The middle-aged boss, who looked very lucky, saw business coming to his door and said with a smile: "Girl, these lanterns are not for sale, but there are riddles on each lantern. As long as the girl spends ten cents to guess the riddle, she can take away the lanterns." .
Ten cents for a lantern riddle? Mo Yan thought about it and didn't think it was expensive. Of course, this was assuming he was right.
She took out twenty pennies from her purse and asked the boss to remove the riddles from both lamps.
Red Rabbit? Mo Yan looked at the rabbit lantern riddle first, then smiled: This is simple, its the word Chi.
You guessed it so quickly, the girl is really smart! The boss praised a few tis and quickly took down the rabbit lantern with a bamboo pole.
Mo Yan took it with a smile, glanced at it and handed it to Xin'er.
Xiner happily took it, holding the lamp pole and looking left and right, feeling extrely happy.
"Sister, hurry up, guess the tiger lantern." Seeing this, Zhen'er couldn't wait to urge her, for fear that the lantern she was interested in would be guessed by others first.
Mo Yan touched his head, and then opened the riddle on the yellow tiger lantern: "'Seven fairies will marry one of them', what is an idiom?"
This is a bit difficult.
Several idioms ca to Mo Yan's mind at once, but none of them matched.
Seeing a few little guys guessing lantern riddles, Mo Qingze who was following behind also beca interested. Seeing that the eldest daughter was still thinking, he took a look at the lantern riddles, smiled and said nothing.
Zhen'er was a little anxious when he saw that his sister didn't guess it as quickly as before, but he didn't know it himself, so he had to ask his father for help: "Dad, do you know what the idiom is?"
Mo Qingze did not answer directly. Instead, he asked his son: "What are the seven fairies? If one is married, how many are left?"
Zhen'er imdiately replied: "The seven fairies are gods in the sky. If one is married, there will be six more!"
