After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 378 Guess the Riddle

Seeing that Qu Chu was bringing two children with her, Madam Hua brought up the Four Seas Restaurant.

Qu Chu heard what he wanted, and said, "Very good."

Mrs. Hua introduced the strange man beside her to Qu Chu, "This is my fifth son. I specially asked their husband and wife to accompany me to Yudu."

Mrs. Hua does not call herself "old body" like ordinary old ladies, but uses "I". The key is that she uses it very naturally, without any sense of violation.

This is why Qu Chu thinks Mrs. Hua is different from ordinary old ladies.

Qu Chu understood the reason why Mrs. Hua brought Jiaorui to Yudu. Jiaorui was familiar with her, and it was convenient for her to contact her in case of any problems.

Qu Chu greeted Fifth Master Hua. This was a man who looked a little weak, but his demeanor was very calm.

This is a person who has his own thoughts and insights and is not easily influenced by the outside world. No wonder he doesn't care about Jiaorui's past.

Mrs. Hua looked at Ning Qingheng who was being held in Qu Chu's arms, "Is this Princess Luanfeng? She is indeed as smart as the rumors say, with profound blessings."

Qu Chu smiled: "It's all good words from everyone, but he is just a delicate child."

Mrs. Hua looked at Ning Qingyu again, "My son is like a general, and he will be a hero in the future."

Qu Chu felt that Mrs. Hua's words of praise were very interesting.

Ordinary people see Ning Qingyu and think that he is Ning Youbei's son-in-law, and they will praise him for his unlimited future, etc., but Mrs. Hua only praises him for being a hero in the future.

As for Ning Qingheng, because she is a girl, most people will praise her for being beautiful and smart, but few people directly use words such as "blessed and profound" with deep meaning.

Mrs. Hua praised Ning Qingyu and Ning Qingheng in reverse, which made Qu Chu, who knew that Ning Qingheng had the blood of the Ning family, feel very interesting.

While Qu Chu was chatting with Mrs. Hua, Yan Hong and Jiaorui had already chatted.

Jianghuai, who Yanhong accompanied Qu Chu, had a lot of dealings with Jiaorui.But she had heard Qu Chu talk about Jiaorui's current situation, calling her "Mrs. Hua Wu".

Because it is not far from the Four Seas Restaurant, the group arrived quickly.

It's just that today's Four Seas Restaurant is very lively, with crowds of people surrounding several floors.

Mrs. Hua said to Mr. Hua, "Go ahead and book a private room, and then go in and have a rest after we finish watching the excitement."

After Fifth Master Hua left, a group of people squeezed into the crowd to watch the excitement.

Sure enough, I saw Su Yingxue and the others at the front.

Seeing Qu Chu, Su Yingxue quickly pulled her back: "Quickly guess what riddle that lantern is?"

Qu Chu glanced at Su Yingxue, "Do you think I have read more books than you?"

Su Yingxue smiled embarrassingly: "I was also confused by Chong Jiu. He likes that lantern, but I have only read a few books, how can I guess?"

Su Chongjiu did not forget to testify to the side:
"That lantern is really beautiful, I like it very much. I told them to buy it, but they didn't sell it, saying that you can win it only if you guess the riddle correctly."

Qu Chu looked at Deng Mingyu, and Deng Mingyu hurriedly said, "Don't look at me, I don't read as many books as you."

Also!

Although Qu Chu didn't read many books, he read them seriously anyway. Deng Mingyu has been dawdling since he was a child, so he probably hasn't read a single book well.

Qu Chu looked at Mrs. Hua and Jiaorui who came together.

Mrs. Hua smiled and said: "Although I have read a lot of books, I am not good at poetry and poetry, and guessing riddles is also a layman."

Jiaorui said, "I'll try."

In order to make the guests happy, she learned poetry and songs.

Everyone pinned their hopes on Jiaorui, but unfortunately, Jiaorui couldn't figure it out either.

Seeing Su Chongjiu listless, Deng Mingyu said:

"We'll wait here first. If anyone guesses the riddle, we'll buy the lantern at a high price. If no one can guess it all the time, I believe the store will be willing to sell the lantern to us after the lantern festival is over."

Su Chongjiu nodded, that's what he had to do!
At this moment, a gentle voice sounded: "Chongjiu, which lantern do you fancy?"

Su Chongjiu looked up and shouted happily: "Uncle Ye."

The person who came was Ye Yu'an.

After he rescued Ning Youbei who was surrounded by the people, Ning Youbei told him that Su Chongjiu should guess lantern riddles at Sihai Restaurant, and he came over.

Sure enough, he met Su Chongjiu.

Ye Yu'an glanced at Su Yingxue and didn't dare to look any further, she only looked at Su Chongjiu.

Su Chongjiu pointed to the three rebus lanterns and said, "I like all three lanterns, I just need to guess one of them."

Ye Yu'an looked at one of the lanterns. The shape of this lantern was so unique that it was made into a porcelain plate with a bunch of flowers painted on it.

This bouquet of flowers is not only painted extremely realistically, but also looks like real flowers under the light, and seems to be able to smell the fragrance of flowers.

Ye Yu'an smiled slightly. The answer to this riddle should be "coil incense", where "flowers" is subtracted from the word "fragrance".

Ye Yu'an revealed the answer to the mystery.

After a while, the owner of Sihai Restaurant came over with the lantern in person.

The host family saluted Qu Chu and the others: "Caomin has seen General Qu, the prince of Chu, Princess Luanfeng and all your lords."

Four Seas Restaurant is a well-known restaurant in Yudu, and it is also a time-honored restaurant. Qu Chu, Ye Yu'an, Deng Mingyu and others have all eaten here, so it is not surprising that the owner knows them.

Qu Chudao: "You're welcome, we are here today to guess riddles just like everyone else."

The owner handed the lantern to Ye Yu'an, "Master Ye, the answer to the riddle is 'Panxiang', you guessed it right, this lantern is for you."

Ye Yu'an took the lantern and handed it to Su Chongjiu, "Here".

Su Chongjiu took it happily, "Thank you, Uncle Ye. There are two other lanterns you can guess too, and you can win one for sister Qingheng and brother Qingyu."

Ye Yu'an patted Su Chongjiu's head and looked at the second lantern.

This lantern is made more interesting.

The lantern is made up of two people and a box. The hands of the two people each hold a handle of the box to connect the lantern into one.The mouths of the two are open, as if talking.

These two people were made into the golden boy and jade girl that children like, and the box was made into the shape of ingots, and they were sprinkled with colorful fluorescent powder, which twinkled under the light.

This riddle is easily reminiscent of ingots and money, but it is not.

Ye Yu'an said to his host: "The answer to this riddle should be an idiom: compare and compare."

After Ye Yu'an finished speaking, the people around him suddenly realized.

These two people help each other with baskets and talk, isn't it just "comparing with each other"?

The host said: "Master Ye got the answer right again."

Before the owner ordered someone to fetch the lantern, Ning Qingheng, who was held in Qu Chu's arms, pointed to the last rebus lantern and said, "The riddle is 'The Heavenly Girl Scattering Flowers', let's take it together."

The owner was shocked, "How did Princess Luanfeng guess it?"
