That is to say, he personally picked out the skirt she was wearing. He had a good taste and she liked it very much. However, the tone of his words was really ambiguous, so Su Wan pretended to be natural and replied:
"I like it very much. Thank you!"
After that, she lifted the hem of her skirt and caught up with her mother. Jiang Yu chuckled and followed her.
The Zhengdan Lantern Festival officially began. The streets were decorated with lanterns and more people began to gather. Rows of small lanterns were connected between the buildings on both sides of the street. Many vendors had already set up stalls to sell lanterns.
There was also a session of guessing lantern riddles to win lanterns. There were all kinds of local snacks, jewelry, and pearl flower handkerchiefs.
This year, Yue Man Xi Lou also hung out a prize, which was a fine wolf hair brush and a piece of Hui ink, worth a hundred taels.
Every year at the Zhengdan Lantern Festival, Yue Man Xi Lou's riddles were the most difficult, but his family's prize was also the best. As soon as the riddles were hung, many people gathered around.
They were all literati who came for the prize of Moon Over West Tower, because if the prize of Moon Over West Tower was converted into silver, it would be a considerable amount, and everyone came for the silver.
But there were also people who came for the things themselves, such as Su Jing. After he had watched the wolf-hair brush and Hui ink up close, he realized that the pens and inks he had used before could not be compared with them at all.
He was also a literati, so he was naturally interested in the four treasures of the study, so he also joined the team of guessing the riddle.
Su Wan and the others watched the fun on the side and helped to solve it. Moon Over West Tower posted the riddle, with black handwriting on the bright red paper, and the riddle was:
There is no end to the principles of destiny and human merit, and it is difficult to meet merit without luck, so why is there so much chaos all day long? It's just because the numbers of yin and yang are different!
------Guess an object (The riddle is quoted from Baidu. The author is not so talented. Sorry for the rude words!)
At first glance, it is hard to tell what the riddle is, but soon many people started to answer it. Go, brush, chopsticks, almost all the guesses were made, but no one guessed it.
In the entire Su family, Su Jing is the most educated. The others can only read and count at most. In short, their knowledge is far inferior to Su Jing.
Although Su Wan is a college student, she is also very difficult to solve riddles. If she is asked to play with homophonic puns, she is better at it.
Su Jing is in deep thought, frowning, and everyone is waiting for his answer and nervous for him.
On the contrary, Jiang Yu, who is standing next to Su Wan, looks calm and relaxed, as if he has already analyzed the answer. There is no way, he is the one who asked the question, and he is still looking forward to Su Jing's answer.
Amid the noise of a group of people, Su Jing's frown gradually relaxed:
"The answer is, abacus?"
As soon as he spoke, the people around him looked at him in silence, and saw that he was a handsome young man. Everyone looked at the shopkeeper above.
Shopkeeper Luo smiled heartily and looked at Su Jing:
"I didn't expect that this year's puzzle would be solved so quickly. Young master is quick-witted. This year's answer is, abacus!"
As soon as the correct answer was announced, some people were happy and some were worried. Su Wan excitedly turned into Su Jing's little fan girl, pulling his sleeves, and was very happy:
"Brother, you are so smart!"
The Su family was very excited because they actually won a prize worth 100 taels of silver. It was a great fortune!
But those who came for the prize lamented in defeat and blamed themselves for being so slow to react.
They watched Shopkeeper Luo hand over this year's prize to Su Jing with both hands.
"Congratulations, Mr. Su!"
Su Jing liked the wolf-hair brush and Hui ink very much, and he also took them with both hands:
"Thank you, Manager Luo!"
The people in the full moon west building began to disperse gradually, going to other places to win prizes. Any well-known merchants in the state would hang prizes.
The Su family followed the crowd and walked forward. The children saw everything new. Su Yun walked in front. He was wearing a light blue robe with his sleeves tied up and a high ponytail.
The handsome young man of five or six years old was full of vigor and vitality.
Su Yi wore a dark blue robe, just like his personality, calm, gentle, and not revealing.
The third brother Su Chen wore black. When Jiang Yu chose clothes for him, he really didn't know what color would suit him. In the end, he chose this black suit.
Su Chen was a very low-key person. He didn't like the hustle and bustle. He always followed quietly behind. Too flashy colors were not suitable for him. On the contrary, black was the most suitable.
There was a game of pitching pots on the street. If you hit three arrows in a row, you can choose a favorite pearl flower, but you have to pay one penny for each arrow you throw.
Many people were eager to try, but the results were not satisfactory. The young men wanted to choose the favorite pearl flowers for the girls they liked, but they didn't have the skills.
Su Chen helped Su Yun with his work and saved ten taels of wages. He bought fifty arrows at once and started pitching pots to win pearl flowers for Su Wan.He pulled Su Wan to the stall, pointed at the dazzling array of various pearl flowers on the tray, and said arrogantly:
"Wan Wan, tell the third brother if you like the one, and the third brother will win it for you!"
Su Wan liked the third brother's domineering speech so much, she nodded vigorously, anyway, the third brother was a martial arts master, this kind of game was a piece of cake for him.
The price of each of those pearl flowers ranged from a dozen to dozens of coins. Some of them were quite elegant and beautiful, and some were very suitable for Su's mother.
Su Wan mourned for the boss for three seconds, and then waited for the third brother to clear the field.
Su Chen hit the target every time, and each one was thrown into the pot in the middle, which attracted cheers from the people around him. It didn't take long for Su Wan's hands to be full of pearl flowers. When she couldn't take any more, she asked Su's mother to choose.The boss's face became more and more ugly. If he let Su Chen continue, he would lose a lot. So when Su Chen was about to add another fifty arrows, he stopped in time:
"Sir, the upper limit here is fifty arrows, what do you think?"
The other person's meaning was very clear. Su Chen looked at Su Wan and asked her what she meant with his eyes. Su Wan smiled and nodded. Anyway, she had won so much, so she should leave a pair of pants for her. It's good to be a person and see each other in the future!
The brother and sister gave up the pot throwing game and ran away with the spoils. The boss was sweating in the middle of winter.
The other brothers were guessing riddles and winning lanterns in other places. They planned to win a lantern each and then put it in the lake to make a wish.
Su Mu came towards her, holding an exquisite rabbit lantern in his hand, and handed it directly to Su Wan:
"Here you go!"
This rabbit lantern is for viewing and playing, and the one placed in the water is a lotus lantern. After a while, Su Yun also came running with a lotus lantern:
"Su Wan, look, do you like the lotus lantern I won for you?"
