Chapter 140: win it all for you
Chapter 140 is all won for you
The full moon hangs high in the sky, and the silver-white brilliance falls on the sky, falls on the billowing red dust, and is submerged in the thousands of lanterns.
A beautiful woman in black and holding a man in snow-white clothes, stepping on the light of the moon, came to a small stall with the crowd.
The so-called stall is just a table, supported by wooden sticks on both sides. The two sticks are connected by a rope that is not thick and thin, and several lanterns are hung in the middle of the rope. Some lanterns depict a rabbit, some depict a lotus, and some depict a plum tree...
"Is there any lantern you like?" Junli turned his head and asked Yun Jin who was beside him.
Yun Jin was looking at a lantern depicting landscape patterns, and when he heard Junli's words, he looked around the row of lanterns in front of him. After a long time, he blushed slightly, bit his lip, pointed at the string of lanterns in front of him, and said embarrassedly, "I like them all."
Jun Li nodded with a smile, stretched out his hand to gently touch his head, and felt the softness of the hair in the palm of his hand, which made her reluctant to let go.
"Since you like it, I'll win it all for you." She had a rare gentle smile on her face, and the bag in her left hand tightened.
Yun Jin looked up, "These puzzles are very difficult." At least in his opinion, it was very difficult. Before, his father only had time to teach him how to read and write, but before he taught riddles, his father passed away, and his mother couldn't stand it. Live, and soon followed. His aunt took away the house where he was the only one left, and sold him to Ren Yazi. Since then, no one has taught him how to read or write.
Jun Li patted his head lightly and said, "Don't worry, let's see how I win these lanterns."
Yun Jin didn't say too much, nodded obediently, took the bag from Junli's left hand, and said, "Let me take it."
Jun Li didn't object either, he nodded and put the burden in his hands.
Turning around and looking at the owner of the stall, she should be a simple and honest woman on the outside, her appearance is not very good, but a few shrewd colors flashed from time to time in a pair of not too big eyes, showing that the owner is not as simple and honest as she looks .
Two men and women with extraordinary looks and clothes came to her stall. She didn't say hello, but just looked at them with a naive expression, scratching her head and looking at them from time to time.
"Boss, is it possible to take away the lantern as long as you guess the answer correctly?" Jun Li looked at the stall owner and said.
The stall owner held out two more fingers and said, "If you don't guess correctly, you have to pay me two pennies."
Raised his eyebrows, without saying anything, he picked up a small wooden sign hanging under a lantern, and saw that it read: January 7th, guess a word.
Jun Li smiled lightly, parted his red lips, and said, "Zhi."
The stall owner turned over the small wooden sign and saw that it was indeed a fat character.
Take off the lantern and hand it to Junli, and said with a silly smile, "Miss is really smart."
Jun Li nodded with a smile, and handed the lantern in his hand to Yun Jin, it was the lantern depicting mountains and rivers.
Holding the lantern in his hand, Yunjin was smiling all over his face, studying the lantern in his hand curiously, his eyes were like crescent moons, his smile was so dazzling that one felt that he seemed to have encountered something very happy, and could not help but be overwhelmed by his happiness Infect.
Yun Jin played with the lantern in her hand fondly, without noticing the doting in someone's eyes behind her.
Shaking his head lightly, Junli held up a wooden sign again and looked over.
Night after night, guess the word.
"Many." She said softly.
The stall owner turned over the wooden sign and saw that it was right again!
Take off the lantern, this time did not hand it to Junli, but to Yunjin.
Yun Jin's eyes are curved, and the brilliance in the eyes is like stars, shining brightly.
After taking the lantern handed over by the stall owner, Yun Jin smiled at Junli, moved to her side, and looked at the next lantern.
With a faint smile on the corner of Junli's mouth, he picked up the lantern and looked over.
A family of eleven, guess a word.
"lucky."
Another lantern was handed to Yun Jin.
Pierce the heart with an arrow, guess a word.
"must."
The lantern is here again.
A cow, guess a word.
"pregnancy."
…
One after another, the lanterns were handed over to Yunjin, and when the last lantern on the stall was handed over to Yunjin, the stall owner had a bitter expression on his face, "I said, Miss, you are so powerful, why do you want to look at my stall?" Don't let it go."
The stall owner just feels that his mouth is full of bitterness now, and he was pointing to make some money at the Lantern Festival tonight, but now he is doing well, he has lost all his money, how can he explain to his husband when he goes back.
After the stall owner said this, the two realized that there was no lantern on the stall, and they couldn't help but look at each other.
Yun Jin's face was full of embarrassment. He used to live at the bottom of the world, and he knew that it was not easy to make a living, and sometimes it was not enough. Now he heard what the stall owner said, and seeing the lanterns with two arms, he wanted to give it to the stall owner. lay down.
Jun Li stretched out his hand to stop his movement, and took out a white ingot of silver from his sleeve, which was as much as twelve taels, enough for an ordinary person like the stall owner to live for half a year.
Put the silver on the stand and said, "This is the money we paid for your lantern."
The stall owner glanced at Junli in surprise, but seeing that Junli had already walked away holding Yun Jin, he picked up the ingot of silver on the stall, and bit it hard into his mouth.
It wasn't until the toothache was so painful that the stall owner woke up like a dream. Did she really earn ten taels of silver?
Realizing that she really got ten taels of silver, the stall owner quickly looked around and saw that no one was looking at her. In his arms, he put away the stall and left in a hurry.
Junli and his arms were covered with lanterns, walking on the busy street, looking at a stall selling Chaos not far away, looked at Yun Jin and asked, "Would you like to eat a bowl of Chaos?"
Yun Jin followed her gaze, saw the bowls of white chaos being fished out, couldn't help but licked her lips, looked at her stomach, and nodded vigorously at Junli.
Seeing the colorful lanterns on the arms of the two, Yun Jin was in a dilemma.
"What about these lanterns?" He hesitated.
Jun Li turned his head to look behind him, and smiled softly, "If you don't feel distressed, give them all."
Yun Jin looked behind her suspiciously, but saw a group of children standing there looking at various lanterns with longing in their eyes.
Couldn't help but stepped forward, handed a rabbit lantern in his hand to a little boy, and said with a smile, "For you."
The little boy looked at the lantern in Yun Jin's hand with his big eyes open, and asked, "Daddy said, you can't buy things from people you don't know." Although he said this, his eyes were full of longing. This lantern.
