Be Careful General's Wife!

Today, there is a lantern festival in the imperial city of the Lantern Festival. There are also rich businessmen who bought fireworks to set them off by the river in the city. Shen Ming didn't go into the palace to attend the Lantern Festival banquet today. Because the two elders of the Shen family will leave the imperial city after the Lantern Festival, he plans to show them how lively the Lantern Festival is before they leave.

The Lantern Festival in the palace is basically held every year. It's OK to go less once. But his parents left the imperial city this time, but they did not know when to come, nor could they see the Lantern Festival of the imperial city every year.

As soon as it gets dark, Shen Ming takes the two elders of the Shen family, song Ziling and hui'er out of the general's house. There are many people in the street today, so they don't take the carriage, but go straight.

Qiuju also went out to enjoy the Lantern Festival. However, she did not go with Shen Ming, but with arbor.

There are a lot of people in the street. There are many lanterns hanging on both sides of the street. There are also ropes between the buildings on the opposite side of the street. There are beautiful lanterns hanging on the ropes.

On the street, people rub shoulder to shoulder with each other. The street is full of small stalls selling gadgets and eating, and the sound of shouting and selling is endless.

Li, holding his grandson's hand, had been wandering for a long time, but he was still dazzled.

"The Lantern Festival in the imperial city is really busy." In their small town of Luoshui, they could not see such a spectacular scene.

Shen Yi nodded his head and said, "it's really lively." It is worthy of being at the feet of the emperor.

Song Ziling had a lantern riddle guessing stand and said, "my grandfather and grandmother, there is a lantern riddle guessing stall ahead. Let's go and guess lantern riddles."

Shen Yi nodded and the party went to the lantern riddle guessing booth. There were a lot of people around the stall, and they managed to squeeze in.

There was a sign next to the stall. Song Ziling looked at the words on the sign and said, "guess the lantern riddle for 20 Wen once. If you guess the first one correctly, you can get 10 Wen. If you guess the second one, you can get 20 Wen. The bonus can be accumulated, and the bonus amount will be doubled. It has been long?"

When she saw the lantern, she got a pair of silver.

A young scholar with a tuft of hair was standing in front of the stall, meditating. He had guessed three correctly, and now he's stuck on the fourth. If he guesses this one correctly, he will get a hundred and fifty Wen. But if he fails to make a correct guess, not only will he lose the seventy Wen he got, but also his twenty Wen will be lost.

"Can you guess, master? If you can't guess it, leave quickly and let someone else guess it! " The stall owner looked at the scholar with a smile.

The scholar glared at the stall owner, swung his sleeve and left.

Shen Ming and his wife watched for a while, then watched two people take money to guess the lantern riddle, and they also understood what was going on.

This is a routine, although it only costs 20 Wen to guess lantern riddles, and the bonus has doubled. But the more difficult the lantern riddles the stall owners put forward, they basically can't guess the third and fourth. If you guess right, you can give up the challenge and take the bonus. If you continue to challenge, you will not get any money if you fail. Because everyone wants to get more bonus, so they will choose to continue to challenge after guessing, but they often fail, and no one leaves with the bonus. The stall owner is to grasp the psychology of people, so they set up such a special riddle guessing booth.

Shen Ming looked at his father and said, "Dad, let's go! It's no fun guessing lantern riddles like this. " He doesn't really like this way of guessing riddles.

The stall owner accepted the money happily. Hearing Shen Ming's remark, he said with a straight face: "you are a stupid person. You can't guess lantern riddles. On the contrary, it's boring to guess lantern riddles like this. Everyone thinks it's very interesting."

His business is just right now! Isn't that what the man said?

Stupid? Shen Ming's eyes widened. It was the first time that someone said he was stupid.

"Poof..." Shen Yi couldn't help laughing, pointed to his son and said, "you have been called stupid."

"Dad..." Shen Ming is covered with black lines. Is this his father?

Li could not help but cover his lips and smile. Since ming'er was born, everyone praised him for his intelligence. Today, some people say that he is stupid.

Song Ziling said with a smile: "uncle, you are stupid. I think you can teach him how to be a man."

Hui'er stretched out his hand, folded his five fingers, and said to Shen Ming, "give him some color to see."

Shen Ming took a deep breath from the corner of his mouth. He took twenty copper plates out of his purse and put them down on the stall and said, "I want to guess lantern riddles."
