Chapter 932 Poetry Winner ([-])

Seeing that she was curious, Chu Xixi took out a few copper coins and bought two doughnuts for Chu Mantong.

Chu Mantong happily held it in her hands, as if she had died of some precious treasure.Chu Xixi looked amused for a while.

"It's a girl who has never seen the world. Two faces can buy the fourth sister. This fourth sister is really worthless!" Seeing this, Chu Manlian sarcastically said.By the way, he glanced at Chu Manyan who was sitting on the side.

Both Chu Manyan and Chu Mantong were born of the Liang family, so they can be called siblings.

Just now Chu Manyan stole the limelight in front of Chu Yurou, but now that she has the opportunity, Chu Manlian couldn't help but want to shame her.

Sure enough, after hearing Chu Manlian's words, Chu Manyan's face immediately turned a little pale, gritted her teeth, and sneered: "Sister can really joke, Sister Tong is the third young lady who is about to be married by the Liu family. Did you see the dowry gift from the Liu family?" Is there a list? Just the dowry gift is full of dozens of boxes, and it takes dozens of people to carry it to deliver it. Oh, what a blessing, they are all concubines, but Sister Tong can be the main wife. Sister, I am so envious !"

Chu Manyan secretly reminded Chu Manlian that they were all concubines, and there was no distinction between high and low among them.

Chu Manlian's complexion also changed several times in an instant, she gritted her teeth, and her face flushed.

Only Chu Yurou, sitting on the mountain watching the tigers fight, watched the two of them bicker fiercely, and never said anything to persuade them.

"Sister, sister, look at this, guessing lantern riddles. Isn't today a poetry writing meeting? Why are there still lantern riddles?" Chu Mantong was innocent and bright, with a lively smile, which also affected Chu Xixi's mood to some extent, and then became enlightened.

Chu Xixi came over and took the lantern riddle from Chu Mantong's hand, but she was also very puzzled and said she didn't understand.

The street vendor at the side knew that they were ladies from rich families by looking at their clothes, and immediately came forward to explain: "If the two ladies are interested, you might as well come and guess. If you guess the answer correctly, there will be a reward!"

As soon as Chu Mantong heard that there was a reward, she immediately looked at the vendor with wide eyes: "Reward? What reward?"

The vendor smiled mysteriously, looked at the shelves behind him, and said to the two of them, "If you can guess right, you can choose one of the items on this shelf."

Chu Mantong was very interested, and wanted to come over to guess the lantern riddles.

Chu Xixi stopped Chu Mantong and asked the merchant, "If you guess wrong, what should you do?"

The vendor didn't expect Chu Xixi to ask this question, and his expression flashed a little flustered, but it was quickly covered by a smile, and he said to the two of them with a smile: "If the guess is wrong, the lady must buy this lantern and keep it empty." There will be new lanterns to make up for it.”

There is indeed a problem!
Chu Xixi sneered.She could clearly see the vendor's expression just now.

Just now I purposely half-spoken, waiting for people to guess the lantern riddles, if the guess is wrong, in order to save face, I have to buy the lantern, and let the matter rest.

This is clearly the guise of guessing lantern riddles, coming here to buy and sell by force.

Chu Xixi then asked the merchant, "But one chance per person?"

The vendor didn't expect that the lady in front of him didn't look like she came out of an ordinary mansion, but more like someone who was proficient in making a living.The words that are asked are all important points. Seeing that the person next to him was about to guess the lantern riddles just now, he was stopped by the person in front of him.

It can be seen that this Lord is not easy to fool.

The vendor put away his charming smile, and said to Chu Xixi quite seriously: "I have eyes but don't know Mount Tai, so I don't dare to lie to Miss. That's true. One person has one chance. If you guess wrong, you have to buy this lantern." .A lantern is five cents."

Chu Xixi nodded, but did not continue speaking.When I went to see Chu Mantong again, I had been fiddling with the lantern in my hand for a long time.

"If Fourth Sister likes it, then try it. I'm here to play today, so I have to be happy." Chu Xixi also took the lantern in Chu Mantong's hand. The title on the lantern was: "Choose one in a hundred, type one word!"
Chu Mantong tilted her head and thought for a while, then said to the vendor suddenly: "This is so difficult, is it a pawn?"

The vendor smiled and said that Chu Mantong's guess was wrong.

Chu Mantong immediately pouted, looking very aggrieved.

Instead, Chu Xixi turned around and asked her, "How did you think it was a pawn?"

Chu Mantong sniffed, looked at Chu Xixi and said, "Choose one out of a hundred, subtract one from a hundred, that's 99, and the most recent word for the number 99 is a pawn!"

Chu Xixi also nodded, but then touched Chu Mantong's small face and said, "Since it's not right, let's think about it. One in a hundred, it should be—"

"It's the word 'white'!" Chai Tianhan suddenly appeared beside Chu Xixi, and blurted out the answer.

When Chu Xixi looked up, he saw Chai Tianhan standing beside him with a smile on his face, quite airy.

In fact, Chu Xixi had already thought of this answer, but he preempted it.

"Oh, this young man is very knowledgeable, you got the answer right. Please choose one!" The vendor stretched out his hand, motioning Chai Tianhan to look over to the shelf.

In fact, there was nothing valuable on that shelf at all, but it was just a fool.

Chai Tianhan prides himself on himself, so naturally he doesn't take these things seriously, but he took this opportunity to show his favor to Chu Xixi: "Miss San, choose one if you don't mind."

Chu Xixi naturally understands Chai Tianhan's filthy thoughts, and it is impossible to pursue Chu Yurou, so now he wants to lower his requirements and come here to show his favor?Don't you think she, Chu Xixi, is too cheap?
Without refusing, Chu Xixi turned to Chu Mantong and said, "Fourth sister, choose one, this is a gift from Mr. Chai!"

Chu Mantong was full of joy, and after thanking Chai Tianhan, he chose a carp-shaped pendant from the shelf, hung it around his waist like a treasure, and stood in front of Chu Xixi and walked around.

"Sister, look, sister, does it look good?" Chu Mantong's innocent face was really likable.

When she first entered Chu Mansion, Chu Mantong called her third sister Chu Xixi very politely.

After getting along, Chu Mantong felt more and more that the third sister who came back from the country treated her better than her own sister.

When no one was around, Chu Mantong would always call Chu Xixi 'sister', and only in front of Qu Shi and Chu Taiping, would she properly address the third sister by her title.

"It's beautiful, the fourth sister's natural beauty is really enviable to my sister." Chu Xixi praised Chu Mantong a few words.

Immediately turning around, he noticed the flash of anger on Chai Tianhan's face unsurprisingly.

She is the person who knows Chai Tianhan best, and what he can't stand the most is that others don't take his kindness seriously.

So when he expressed his favor, Chu Xixi directly gave the opportunity to Chu Mantong.

First, it made Chu Mantong happy;
Secondly, I also wanted to tell Chai Tianhan not to think about it!

It's a pity that Chai Tianhan doesn't seem willing to give up lightly.

Just when Chai Tianhan opened his mouth slightly to find another topic, Mo Shuang walked over, keeping his eyes on Chu Xixi.

As soon as he walked over, he heard the gong on the high platform being struck vigorously by drumsticks.The surroundings immediately quieted down, and they all watched the people who walked slowly up the high platform.
