Chapter 352: Somewhat absurd
"Maybe, this situation, the things inside seem to be not simple, but maybe it is deliberately concealed like this." Su Wenyue said thoughtfully
"Who cares, as long as Shangguan wins the first place, we will know everything." Ye Xinxin said this with confidence, and looked at Shangguan Wuyou with raised eyebrows, which looked a bit provocative
"Husband, don't you usually boast of your literary talent? It's useless to show off in front of me. Now is the critical moment. Perform well and win the first place for me, otherwise this old face will be lost." Ye Xinxin's words were so poisonous that she didn't even speak softly to her husband.
Shangguan Wuyou was sweating a little. He was not the kind of person who was proud of his talent. He was just teasing his wife and was very humble in front of outsiders. Look at what he said. Although he was a little talented, there are always people who are better than you. If it was usual, it would be fine. This lantern riddle party was extraordinary. Many people came for the colorful exquisite lanterns. All the people invited were masters of guessing riddles.
"Xinxin, don't talk nonsense. There are always people who are better than you. There are many people who are more talented than your husband. You are not afraid of being laughed at for saying such big words."
"Shangguan Wuyou, you are so cowardly. You are so scared at this critical moment. Don't let me look down on you. I trust you so much. Are you a man?!" Ye Xinxin said without restraint. She was too excited and too curious about the colorful exquisite lanterns. She didn't control her mouth. Didn't she see that Shangguan Wuyou's face was a little dark.
Shangguan Wuyou knew Ye Xinxin's habits better than anyone else, as they grew up together and she was his wife. She was very quick to use her mouth against the enemy, but if she used it against him, it would definitely make people want to vomit blood.
Su Wenyue looked at Shangguan Wuyou with sympathy. When Ye Xinxin became mean, not everyone could bear it. What she said was too depressing. She should be thankful that Ye Xinxin had a good impression of her, so she usually looked like a cute little girl next door and didn't use this poisonous mouth to deal with her.
Han Yu watched from the side, with little expression on his face, but he was thankful in his heart. Fortunately, his wife was not like this. Although she was a little bit arrogant occasionally, she was sensible and virtuous on weekdays. Especially in front of outsiders, she gave him face. She was only a little bit petty when they were alone. Otherwise, like Ye Xinxin, she would be hurt by anger all day long.
Shangguan Wuyou saw the sympathetic look of the couple, but he was willing to marry his wife, and he had watched her grow up. Except that his wife was a bit mean, the two of them had similar personalities, so he had to bear it, but he still had to warn her.
Ye Xinxin also knew that she had said too much. After all, she still had to give her man some face, especially when she saw that her man looked a little unhappy, her tone softened a little: "Husband, husband, please help me, I really want to see what the world's number one colorful exquisite lantern looks like."
Shangguan Wuyou still loved his wife, and nodded to show that he would try his best.
Su Wenyue saw the interaction between the couple and thought about what happened in her previous life. There was also such a lantern riddle competition in her previous life, but she did not participate. I don't know if Shangguan Wuyou participated, but the colorful exquisite lantern finally fell into Sikong Ling's hands.
Han Yu saw his wife staring at the black wooden box on the stage without blinking. He knew that his wife also wanted to get the colorful exquisite lantern. He wanted to help her, but unfortunately, with the little knowledge he had, the books he read on weekdays were not of this kind. If he was asked to compete in martial arts or set up formations, it would be fine, but guessing lantern riddles was better.
Maybe he could think of other ways to get the colorful exquisite lantern, but Han Yu thought about it and knew that it was not so easy. If it was just a flower lantern, it would be fine. Whether the colorful exquisite lantern was as mysterious and powerful as the legend said, it was a fact that many top forces wanted to fight for it.
"Wife, I am a rough man. I am not good at this kind of pretentious things. I can't win the colorful exquisite lantern, but if you like flower lanterns, I will buy you a nice one later."
Su Wenyue was watching the situation on the stage seriously. She didn't expect Han Yu to say this. She was of course happy to be valued by her man. She smiled and nodded.
There were many people participating in the lantern riddle competition this time, so the elimination system was implemented. After several rounds of lantern riddle guessing, there were 20 groups left, and 12 groups had to be eliminated. Finally, 8 groups could come to the ring. That was when the competition really began and it was also the most exciting time.
Su Wenyue and her group had Shangguan Wuyou, so they entered the ring easily without any obstacles and came to the ring as the second group.
The first to enter was an unknown old man. A group could have up to four people, but this old man was alone without any helpers, which showed that he was quite confident.
The third to enter were the four talents of Yiyang Prefecture. The four talents were not only famous in Yiyang Prefecture, but also in the entire Daming Dynasty. They were not people who sought fame, but had real talents and knowledge, otherwise they would not have been invited by Sikong Ling's people.
Later, several groups came up one after another, most of which were invited by various forces, aiming to win the colorful exquisite lanterns. This lantern competition was extremely fierce and lively, and there were also undercurrents behind the scenes.
Su Wenyue and Han Yu followed Shangguan Wuyou and his wife onto the stage. Su Wenyue felt something was wrong as soon as she stepped onto the stage. Although she tried her best to hide her abnormality, she couldn't help but glance at an inconspicuous wooden box next to the black wooden box, which seemed to contain some sundries.
Han Yu hadn't noticed it at first, after all, most of his attention was on alert and precaution, but his wife's behavior was too abnormal, and her eyes couldn't help but glance at the broken wooden box. Others might not notice it and thought that his wife was paying attention to the black wooden box, but Han Yu was next to Su Wenyue, and from this angle, he could see clearly that his wife was not paying attention to the black wooden box that everyone was paying attention to, but the inconspicuous broken wooden box next to the black wooden box.
"Wife, but what's wrong with the wooden box?" Han Yu believed that his wife would not behave like this for no reason, and there must be a reason, so he whispered in Su Wenyue's ear, so that if there was anything wrong, it would be better to be on guard.
Su Wenyue shook her head, not knowing what to say. It was not that she didn't want to tell Han Yu, but she didn't know how to say it. Even she herself suspected that it was an illusion. She didn't feel it when she was off the stage just now, but once she got on the stage, perhaps because she was close, she could actually feel that there seemed to be a mysterious force in the broken wooden box attracting her. This feeling even she herself felt a little absurd and unbelievable.
