The stall owner collected the copper plate and pulled down a riddle under the lantern with a smile.

Once again, the young people can't stand the challenge.

Oh, that's it? Shen Ming glanced at the riddle in a hurry and answered it.

The person in front of the stall saw that he answered so quickly, and said, "it seems that this young master can guess lantern riddles and has several brushes."

"Yes! Let's see if he can guess right and win a few dollars

They have been here for so long and haven't seen anyone take the money away! Basically everyone is greedy, want to continue to guess double the bonus, and then all failed on the way to challenge.

Song Heng entered the courtyard with Shen Wan in his arms, but the yard was so dark that he didn't even light a light. Obviously, there was no one in the yard.

Song Heng then went into the main room in the light of the moonlight. He put Shen Wan on the Kang, took off her shoes and covered her with a thin quilt. There was still some charcoal fire in the stove connected to the Kang, so the Kang was still hot.

Song Heng took the torch and lit the lamp in the room. The cradle beside the Kang was empty.

Song Heng goes out of Qiushi courtyard and asks a servant to ask. When he asks, he knows that all the people in Qiushi academy are following Shen Ming and the second elder of the Shen family to enjoy the lantern. Song zi'an is now in the old lady Liu's courtyard.

It turned out that at dinner, Liu thought of his little grandson, so Qiuju and Huier held him in his arms. Shen Ming mentioned that he would go out to enjoy the Lantern Festival in the evening. Qiuju and Huier also wanted to go. Liu said that she would put her grandson in the evening and let them two little girls go out to play.

Qiuju is not at ease. She says to let Huier go. She looks at the young master at home. Liu was not happy to hear that, said Qiuju did not believe her, but also said angrily that she, a grandmother, would not harm her own grandchildren?

Qiuju repeatedly confessed that Liu was misunderstood and trusted by the old lady. She left the young master in Liu's courtyard.

Knowing where his son was, Song Heng was relieved.

Back in the room, Shen Wan is still asleep. He sat on the Kang, carefully studying her sleeping face, looking at the finger print on her face, and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead because of fear.

Today, if the guards found her later, she might have died in the hands of the virtuous concubines.

When the Empress Dowager said that it might be someone in the palace who wanted to kill her, he was very afraid, even his hands were shaking, but he did not show half of it.

When he was in the desolate temple, for the first time, he killed a woman.

He can't deny that he cares about her very much, and doesn't even want her to have any accident or get hurt. But there was always a voice in his head reminding him that "she is not Wan'er, she is not Wan'er."

His mind is in a mess, and his heart is in a mess. Recently, he often dreams about the things when Wan'er first married him. When he wakes up, he doesn't know what attitude to face her.

More and more people gathered to see how many riddles the young man could guess correctly and how much money he could win.

The stall owner's forehead has been sweating. He regrets that he shouldn't have said those words. This person is different from those stupid people in front of them. Those people in front of them often get stuck in the third and fourth lantern riddles, but this man has already guessed nine correctly. The prize money for the ninth lantern riddle has doubled to 2560 Wen. Now he has won a total of 51.11 Wen, that is, five Liang silver.

He has only collected 2000 Wen since he set up a stall! If the young master stops now, he will have to iron out more than 3000 Wen. If he doesn't stop and keep guessing, he doesn't know when it's the head.

"Go on." Shen Ming looks at the stall owner and spits out two words.

"My uncle is mighty." Song Ziling clapped his uncle in the face, and he liked his uncle's courage to challenge.

The prize money for the tenth lantern riddle will be more than 5000 Wen. If his uncle answers correctly, the stall owner will have to pay for vomiting blood. But who wants him to say that his uncle is stupid!
