Chapter 48: Shangyuan Festival (3)

"Don't touch my lamp, you...... You must have cheated! The lean boss screamed like a pig.

Xu Jin asked indifferently: "Why did you cheat?" ”

The lean boss was speechless for a moment, but he felt pain when he gave Xu Jin a lantern worth five dollars of silver, so he argued strongly: "You must have seen these lantern riddles, otherwise it would be impossible to guess them so quickly!" ”

Xu Jinjian's eyebrows raised slightly: "So the boss is planning to deny it?" That's a happy trip to the county office. ”

The lean boss suddenly became weak, as the so-called harmony makes money, and he is naturally reluctant to easily get involved in lawsuits when doing business, not to mention that a few people around Xu Jin are either rich or expensive at a glance, plus he is at a loss, and he can't take advantage of the lawsuit, so he immediately changed his smile and said: "I have always been honest in business, how can I deny it, okay, the rosette fairy lamp belongs to you." ”

Xie Xiaowan and the little slave happily carried the lanterns over, and the three Fei Ruyi sisters, as well as their respective maids, couldn't help but gather around to watch, and let out a sigh of admiration.

This rosette fairy lamp has a life-high level, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, the base is made of driftwood, and the rosette and the fairy shelf are made of bamboo strips, covered with dyed paper on the outside, and then painted with lines on the outside, lotus flowers are in full bloom, the fairy is elegant in the wind, and the end is lifelike.

Fei Maoxian couldn't help but praise: "Zhu's light body stands as a crane, if he will fly but not fly." This rosette fairy lamp is exquisitely made, and it is the most rare to see today! ”

The lean boss's heart is dripping blood, it must be rare, the cost is five dollars of silver, and he even lost the handling fee and the venue fee, suddenly his eyes rolled, and he smiled: "Everyone, I still have the Fish Leaping Dragon Gate Lamp, the Mandarin Duck Wing Lamp, and the Guan Gong Dance Broadsword, although it is not as good as this rosette fairy lamp, but it is very good, are you interested in trying it again?" ”

In the eyes of the lean boss, the reason why Xu Jin guessed the ten riddles so quickly was that he had seen them before, so he planned to fool Xu Jin to play again, so as to earn back the losses and profits.

Fei Xiaoyu jumped and said: "Okay, okay, Xu Jin, I want that Guan Gong Dance Knife!" ”

"Brother-in-law, Sister Xiaowan wants that mandarin duck lantern!" The little slave said loudly on purpose.

Xie Xiaowan's face was slightly red, and she pretended to knock him, but the little eyes that showed a hint of hope, Xu Jin understood at a glance, and smiled slightly: "Okay!" ”

"I just want that Leaping Dragon Gate Lantern!" Fei Mao Middle Road.

Fei Maoxian joked: "Then I will ask for the Chang'e to the moon for the third sister!" ”

Xu Jin couldn't laugh or cry: "The people sacrifice to the people, what are you doing to make a scene!" ”

Fei Maozhong said with a smile: "Those who see it have a share, Brother Xu can't favor one over the other, at least the girls present must have one!" ”

The thin boss pursed his lips secretly, really when I gave it away for free, and I also had a lamp in my hand, I didn't believe that kid was so powerful.

Xu Jin pointed to the mandarin duck lantern and said, "Boss, what do you say about that lamp?" ”

"The rules are the same, all of them are ten riddles!"

"Okay, I'm going to guess that!"

"Okay!" The lean boss took out a pile of riddles from under the wings of the mandarin ducks, and this time he deliberately opened the drip leak first, and then handed the riddle to Xu Jin.

Xu Jin didn't bother to bother with him, and immediately started to read the question.

The first riddle is: on January 7, Xu Jin replied without pondering: "The fat word of rouge!" ”

The second course: a family of eleven. Ji Zi!

Third Course: ......

Xu Jin guessed nine ways correctly like a bamboo, and the thin boss's heart seemed to reach his throat, staring nervously at the last riddle in Xu Jin's hand, which was the last line of defense.

Xu Jin glanced at the drip that still had a small half of water, calmly opened the last riddle, and immediately frowned, and everyone behind him showed thoughtful expressions.

The riddle of the tenth lantern riddle is: a family of seven, farming and planting one acre, not enough to eat, and raising a dog (guess the word).

This question is not easy, Xu Jin quickly combined all kinds of deviations in his mind, and he didn't know the essentials for a while.

"Little slave, is this difficult?" Xie Xiaowan asked the little slave beside her in a low voice, although she occasionally learned words from Xu Jin during this time, she didn't know many words.

The little slave nodded and said, "It's a little difficult!" ”

The lean boss glanced at the almost finished dripping, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, aha, the loss is coming back!

At this time, Xu Jin's drooping eyes suddenly raised and said, "The beast word of the beast!" ”

The lean boss suddenly fell from the sky to the ground, and said helplessly: "Correct! ”

"Sister Xiaowan, that mandarin duck lantern is yours!" The little slave cheered, and Xie Xiaowan also smiled.

In fact, the riddle just now is not too difficult, but Xu Jin, who is used to writing simplified characters, can't turn around for a while, and the traditional Chinese writing of the beast is "beast", so it is easier to guess.

Fei Xiaoyu shouted: "Xu Jin, it's my turn, I want that Guan Gong to play with a big knife!" ”

Xu Jin nodded and said, "Boss, it's Guan Gong's big knife!" ”

The lean old man handed the riddle to Xu Jin, and his palms were sweaty. At this time, the movement here has attracted many onlookers, and there are people on the inside and outside of the stalls. However, with such a strong popularity, the lean old man was not happy at all, and he had already lost a tael of silver!

A moment later, the crowd erupted in cheers, because Xu Jin took down the third lamp again, and Fei Xiaoyu was so excited that she screamed and jumped.

"Haha, Han Sanjin is going to lose all his money today!"

"Who is that Xiao Langjun, guessing the lantern riddle is too powerful, the boss is eight lifetimes old!"

"Hey, I do recognize it, that is Xu Jin, the leader of our Xinjiang Academy's last cold literary meeting, nicknamed Xu Ding!"

There happened to be a scholar from Xinjiang Academy in the crowd of onlookers, who shook his head quite complacently at this time and said: "Insist that the green mountains are not relaxed, and the roots are in the broken rocks." Thousands of blows are still tenacious, and the southeast and northwest winds are restricted. ”

"Hey, Sister Xiaowan, it turns out that Xu Pao ...... Ahem, my brother-in-law is so famous! The little slave said.

Xie Xiaowan turned into laughter at this time, of course!

The lean boss wiped the sweat on his forehead and said curtly: "Young Master Xu, I will give you the fish leaping dragon gate lamp, can you raise your noble hand, don't guess anymore?" ”

The people around laughed out loud, and someone in the crowd teased loudly: "Ouch, the boss of Han Sanjin, who is known as an iron abacus and counts dead grass, has been coaxed!" ”

Xu Jin smiled, nodded and agreed, as the so-called being a man and leaving a line, it will be good to see each other in the future, and you must not do things absolutely in life. Of course, if it's a mortal enemy, it's a different matter, fighting a snake and not dying will eat itself!

The lean old man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Xu Jin agree.

"Well, we'll buy the remaining Chang'e Moon Lantern for one or two, do you have no opinion?" Xu Jin said again.

"Okay, one or two will be one or two!" The lean boss naturally has no opinion, the cost of the lamp is less than five dollars of silver, and one or two pieces of silver can be sold and earn five hundred yuan, which is a slight reduction in losses.

"Brother Xu, I should pay for these two silvers!" Fei Maoxian hurriedly took out the money bag, just now he said that Chang'e running to the moon lantern was for the third sister Fei Ruyi.

Xu Jin pushed Fei Maoxian's money bag back, paid a tael of silver himself, and said with a smile: "I've been bothering me for days, this money should be paid by me!" ”

Fei Maoxian was no longer reluctant when he heard this, so that the five flower pots were in hand, Xie Xiaowan, Xiao Nu'er, and the three sisters of the Fei family each had one lamp, and they were all very happy.

Fei Xiaoyu leaned into Fei Ruyi's ear and teased: "Sister, your lamp is the most valuable!" ”

Fei Ruyi's face was a little hot, and she glanced at her sister angrily!

These five lanterns are large in size, and it is not convenient to carry them, so they continue to store them at the lean boss, and then pick them up when the lights are put on at night.

"Isn't that Fei Minxian and Fei Minshou? Hey, Xu is still here, great, we are saved! ”

Xu Jin and the others were about to leave to continue their stroll, when two scholars hurriedly walked up, it was none other than the classmates of Xinjiang Academy, Cai Yue and Li Yingjun.

Fei Maozhong said: "Brother Yuanhao, Brother Ziyu, what's the matter?" ”

Cai Yue hurriedly said: "The people from Yushan Academy suddenly came to our academy to challenge, but today most of the people have come out to visit the Lantern Festival, we are weak, and we rely on Li Chen and a few classmates to support the scene, but it seems that it won't last long, and we and Han Shoucheng and others will come out separately to find help!" ”

Li Yingjun said indignantly: "Yes, those guys from Yushan Academy are too arrogant, they even spoke wildly, laughing at our Xinjiang Academy for having no one, and saying that our Shangrao County has poor education and low quality of the people!" ”

Fei Maozhong suddenly raised his eyebrows, brushed his sleeves and said: "How can it be reasonable to dare to be so arrogant, Brother Xu, teach them a lesson!" ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but feel a little painful, daring to be a student from another academy who came to "kick the hall", it wouldn't be the gang who had a dispute with the little slave before, right?

The little slave pressed the tiger head hat with a weak heart!

At this moment, Han Chuang came over with a few scholars from Xinjiang Academy, obviously the helpers he had just found.

"Great, now there are enough people, let's go, teach the people of Yushan Academy a lesson!" Cai Yue waved his fist excitedly, and then took the lead in the direction of the academy.

Xu Jin had no choice but to follow the brigade to Xinjiang Academy, since ancient times, literati have been light, not to mention that people have come to kick the hall, how can there be no reason not to fight back, and it is related to the reputation of the academy, as a member of the academy, it is naturally responsible to maintain.

Han Chuang took a step behind, leaned in front of the stall and asked the lean boss, "Dad, how is the business today?" ”

The thin old man said with a dark face: "Sensei, even the underwear is almost lost!" ”

Han Chuang said in surprise: "How is it possible, Dad, you are an iron calculating dead grass!" ”

"Alas, no matter how high the kung fu is, I'm afraid of kitchen knives, ah, who is that...... Xu insisted that guessing the lantern riddle was as easy as eating tofu, and your father lost four big lanterns, and the cost alone cost two taels of silver, and the flesh hurt to death your old man. ”

Han Chuang lost his voice and said, "I...... Say Daddy, you, you, you...... I actually want to slaughter Xu Biting Yin's money, let me say hello, that guy is a demon, he broke the ten questions of the mountain chief in the blink of an eye! ”

Han Xin said with a sad face: "If you knew that he was so wicked, how dare you fool him!" ”

"Alas, forget it, Dad, whoever made you so unlucky, you should spend money to buy a lesson, and you can save it back by eating pickles for a month for two taels of silver!" Han Chuang comforted.

"Stinky boy, have you comforted Lao Tzu like this, your academy food expenses have been halved this month!"
