Princess Consort Is No Pushover

Volume 1_Chapter 3497 Couplets

The owner of the restaurant saw that the pair of children were very beautiful, like a golden boy and a jade girl, so he liked it very much.

He hurriedly said: "Miss, the mystery of this lotus flower lantern is: the eldest sister uses a needle but not thread, the second sister uses thread but does not need a needle, the third sister lights the lamp but does not work, and the fourth sister does not light the lamp for work. The answer to the riddle is four animals." , you guess it!"

When Xing'er heard the riddle, she immediately clapped her hands and smiled, "Wow, I read this in a book. The answers to the riddle are bees, spiders, fireflies and ants, right, boss?"

The hotel owner immediately smiled and said: "Yes, of course, little girl, you are also smart. Come, then this lotus flower lantern will be given to you."

As the hotel owner said, he took down the lantern and handed it to Xing'er.

Xing'er immediately said politely: "Thank you boss, you are very kind."

Then, she also handed the lantern to Nanfeng, "Brother, I give it to you."

"Thank you, sister, you are really amazing." Nanfeng took the lantern and smiled softly.

Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue who were beside them were also very happy to see that the two siblings were so harmonious and friendly.

Chu Xuanchen said: "Okay, since you two got the lanterns, let's go to another place to have a look."

He also wanted to buy a lantern to give to Yue'er.

Seeing this, the owner of the hotel hurriedly said: "Several guest officials, you can also enter the store for free drinks, do you want to go in and have a sit?"

"Thank you, no need, boss, I wish you a prosperous business." Chu Xuanchen said, nodding towards Moli.

Mo Li then took out a silver coin and placed it on the table in front of the boss.

Then, a few people left!

The boss was very excited when he saw the ingot of silver on the table.

I didn't expect these people to be so generous, they only got him two lanterns, and they gave him such a large ingot of silver.

These people are either rich or noble at first glance, with extraordinary temperament, they must not be ordinary people.

"For couplets, all guests, as long as you can match our Shanglian, you can eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls in our store for free." At this moment, there was another woman's yelling in everyone's ears.

Seeing this, Xing'er hurriedly said: "Mother, I really want to eat glutinous rice balls. The glutinous rice balls from the boss's mother's house look white and round, like pearls, so beautiful!"

"Okay, let's go and have a look." Yun Ruoyue said, and Chu Xuanchen brought the children to the door of the glutinous rice ball shop.

The lady proprietress standing at the door of the store saw a few people coming, and she hurriedly laughed and said, "Guests, do you want a couplet? As long as you succeed in the couplet once, you can eat a bowl of glutinous rice balls for free!"

"Okay, let's hear it." Yun Ruoyue smiled.

The proprietress hurriedly said: "Shanglian is, Qianjiachun never sleeps."

Yun Ruoyue rolled her eyes, she had read this couplet in a book.

She replied: "The next couplet, ten thousand li and one night."

"Wow, mother, you are so good, you answered it so quickly." Xing'er immediately clapped her hands and looked at Yun Ruoyue adoringly.

Yun Ruoyue smiled and glanced at Xing'er, silly girl, as long as you read more, you will too.

"This lady is really smart, then I will test you again." The proprietress smiled.

"Okay, no problem." Yun Ruoyue said.

The proprietress thought for a while, and said: "Let's enjoy the earth and the sky, let the earth and the sky enjoy the Lantern Festival."

Yun Ruoyue replied: "The lights are bright and the moon is shining, and the lights and the moon are shining in Taipingchun."

After Yun Ruoyue finished speaking, the proprietress suddenly stared at her in a daze, and then she murmured: "Little lady, you look like a person."

"Me? Who do you look like?" Yun Ruoyue asked doubtfully.

Chu Xuanchen also looked at the proprietress suspiciously.

The proprietress stared at Yun Ruoyue carefully, and suddenly said: "I remembered, you are like the young master who wrote poems for me in Tiansheng Kingdom back then, like the person named Yunli."

When Yun Ruoyue and Chu Xuanchen heard this, they immediately remembered it.

It turns out that the proprietress who sells glutinous rice balls here is actually the woman who sold sky lanterns in Tiansheng Country back then.

They still remembered that the proprietress especially liked to collect poems, and she asked Yun Ruoyue to compose several poems for her.

At this time, the proprietress had already yelled at a man who was making glutinous rice balls next to him: "Master, come quickly, I saw little brother Yunli!"

"What? Little brother Yunli? That great poet back then?" Hearing this, the male boss hurriedly washed his hands and walked over excitedly.

As soon as the two came over, they stared at Yun Ruoyue and Chu Xuanchen.

As soon as the male boss saw Yun Ruoyue's face, he said excitedly: "Lady, I recognized it. This is little brother Yunli, but how did he become a woman?"

The proprietress smiled and said: "Fool, don't you realize that she was a woman disguised as a man back then?"

When Yun Ruoyue heard this, she couldn't help shaking her head with a chuckle.

The male boss enthusiastically said: "Great, lady, we finally met a fellow from Tiansheng Kingdom here!"

Yun Ruoyue immediately said: "Sorry, I'm actually from Chu, not Tiansheng. When I went to Tiansheng, I was looking for someone."

"Ah? So you are not from Tiansheng!" The two couples were a little disappointed when they heard that.

However, the proprietress immediately smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if we are not fellow villagers, anyway, the people of Chu State are so nice, it is our good fortune to know someone like Miss Yunli."

When Yun Ruoyue heard this, she smiled slightly.

Then, she looked at the two of them and said, "You two, aren't you in Tiansheng Kingdom? Why did you come to Chu Kingdom?"

The proprietress sighed helplessly when she heard this, "Hey! Ma'am, you don't know that since our Prince Lingtian lost to Chu State three years ago, our Tiansheng Kingdom has been weak and unable to recover. The emperor is warlike again. In addition, the officials above are all corrupt, and the cruel officials are rampant. In addition, in the past two years, there have been natural disasters, so the people are homeless and the people are struggling. We really can’t live there. So I came to Chu State to do business and wanted to support my family, but I didn't expect to meet you after only a few days!"

"So that's how it is." Yun Ruoyue said, and exchanged a glance with Chu Xuanchen.

It turned out that the situation in Tiansheng Kingdom was more serious than they imagined.

Thinking of this, Yun Ruoyue said again: "Then do you do business here?"

The proprietress immediately smiled and said: "Okay, okay, your Chu country is different from our Tiansheng country. In the past few years under the rule of your Chu emperor and queen, your Chu people have become very rich, and they are willing to spend money. Money, willing to eat out, so our business is very good."

The male boss also said excitedly: "Yes, we will continue to work hard to earn more money, buy a few houses here, and let the children have a home."

Yun Ruoyue also felt very comforted seeing the two of them full of hope and looking forward to life.
