Xiang Zhirou grew up in the north since she was a child, and has been exposed to the wind and snow.
After arriving in the south, due to his special status, he could only live in Prince Jing's Mansion all day and was not allowed to go out.
So she has never eaten gadgets like candied haws.
After tasting this, it felt like a door to a new world had opened.
The cheeks kept beating like a hamster eating, quickly wiping out a whole bunch of candied haws.
He even licked his lips, recalling the sweetness and sourness, and couldn't help but feel joy in his heart.
When Gu Beichuan saw this, he couldn't help but lower his head and smile to himself.
I thought to myself, Brother Bai, this sister, how could she be so innocent and innocent, she was really like a child.
Although it was funny, he took the initiative to hand over another bunch of candied haws in his hand.
Xiang Zhirou was stunned when she saw this. She recalled her eating posture just now, and two wisps of red immediately climbed up her cheeks.
"Mr. Gu, you... don't want to eat?"
Gu Beichuan smiled and shook his head, saying, "I bought them all for you."
When Xiang Zhirou heard the words, her eyes bloomed brightly, like stars.
She took the candied haws a bit shyly and said, "Thank you, sir."
In this way, the two of them walked side by side. During this period, Xiang Zhirou turned sideways more than once and secretly looked at Gu Beichuan.
"Everyone Gu's profile is so handsome."
After walking, we arrived at the center of the city, which was the busiest place.
Many people were gathering in one place and talking about it.
Xiang Zhirou became interested and wanted to push forward, but couldn't find the way.
Seeing this, Gu Beichuan mobilized his inner strength, brought it with him, and squeezed in through the crowd.
After landing, the two looked up and discovered that there were two bright red lanterns hanging high.
There is a piece of red cloth pulled under one of them, with the words "One side is red, the other side is green, one side likes the wind, and the other side likes the rain."
The other one is also holding a piece of red cloth with the words "The sunset fragrance remains, wash your heart a little bit".
Under the lantern is a wooden table with several exquisite gold hairpins on it.
There is an old man with a goatee behind the table and a smile on his face.
"Is this... lantern riddles?"
"This young man has a good eye for guessing lantern riddles."
Hearing this, Gu Beichuan became interested and asked, "What are the rules?"
"Three cents for one guess, no reward for wrong guess."
"You guessed it, you can take one of the hairpins on the table."
Gu Beichuan's eyes were very sharp, and the color of the hairpin was not pure at just one glance.
I'm afraid it's not gold, at most it's just brass, just coated with a layer of gold powder.
Seeing this, he lost interest and turned to leave.
But who would have thought that Xiang Zhirou stood there, looking at the hairpin, motionless.
"Sir, this girl seems to like me very much. Why don't you come and give me a try?"
"Even if it fails, it's nothing more than three cents."
Hearing this, Gu Beichuan looked at Xiang Zhirou and said, "Miss Xiang Yun really wants it?"
Xiang Zhirou was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then realized that Xiang Yun was calling her, so she nodded hurriedly.
Seeing this, Gu Beichuan was a little helpless.
Xiang Yun is the daughter of Prince Jing, so if he really wants it, he can give him some real gold hairpins.
But who would have thought that he would fall in love with this gold-plated brass one.
But...it doesn't matter.
"Then give it a try."
The old man with the goatee suddenly became happy when he heard this.
The hairpins on his stall are indeed gold-plated brass.
But no matter what, the appearance looks gorgeous.
Most of the girls who were going north and south couldn't walk when they saw it.
At this time, if they try to seduce their male partner, they must give it a try.
This young man in particular looks like a scholar.
Scholars should save their face. If I don't give enough money to try out this word puzzle later, I'm afraid I won't be able to get off the stage.
Thinking of this, the smile on the face of the old man with goatee became brighter and he said: "Sir, which one do you want to guess first?"
Gu Beichuan thought for a while, pointed to the lantern with the words "One side is red, the other side is green, one side is happy for the wind, the other side is happy for the rain" and said, "This is it."
After saying that, he took out three pennies and handed it to the old man.
When the old man saw this, he immediately smiled and said: "Please."
"In my opinion, the answer to this riddle should be the word 'Autumn'."
When the old man heard this, he was stunned, and his whole body seemed to be petrified, frozen in place.
Among the people around, there were also many scholars. After hearing the words, they all thought about it carefully, and then they suddenly realized: "So, it turns out to be the word Qiu!"
"This word puzzle is really wonderful."
"This young master is really capable. I've been waiting here for so long and I don't have a clue. This guy just came here and he got hit in one go."
The old man with the goatee also started to murmur, wondering whether it was a blind cat that met a dead mouse, or was he really capable?
However, Gu Beichuan ignored everyone's gazes and just turned his head and said to Xiang Zhiju: "Miss Xiang Yun, choose a hairpin."
Hearing this, Xiang Zhirou nodded and hummed sweetly.
Then he stretched out his hand and chose a relatively low-key and reserved one among the many hairpins.
"Thank you Mr. Gu, you have made your choice, let's go."
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he shook his head and said, "Merchant, your word puzzle should be unlimited."
Hearing this, the old man with the goatee suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and said: "...That's true."
After getting the answer he wanted, Gu Beichuan no longer hesitated, took out a small piece of broken silver and said: "Half a tael of silver, a total of five hundred dollars, enough to guess more than a hundred times."
Seeing this, the old man accepted the money, but his hands were shaking badly.
As expected, Gu Beichuan pointed to the lantern on the other side with the words "The sunset fragrance remains, cleanse the world's heart a little" and said: "The answer to this riddle should be the word "bald"!"
After a brief silence, the crowd burst into exclamations.
"Right again!"
"This boss has met an expert. I'm afraid he will lose everything today."
Hearing these words, Gu Beichuan had no unnecessary reaction. He just smiled softly, turned his head and said to Xiang Zhiju: "Miss Xiang Yun, choose another one."
"Seller, if there are any other word puzzles, take them out and have a look. I want to have fun guessing them."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper had a wry smile on his face, but he was also a little distrustful. He took out all the remaining word puzzles and said, "Young master, you can just guess, I have enough control here."
Hearing this, Gu Beichuan smiled what he thought was a warm smile.
But in the eyes of everyone around him, there was a sense of gloating about his misfortune.
"A family of eleven? Lucky!"
"One arrow through the heart? Sure!"
"Fifty pairs of ears? Mo!"
"A person has a mouth and a hand under the mouth? Take it!"
…
Everyone was stunned when they saw this scene.
Because Gu Beichuan guessed the word riddles, he almost didn't have to think. When he saw one, the answer came out instantly.
And look at the store owner's face, which is getting more and more ugly, and even about to cry.
Everyone knew that these answers to the mystery were all correct!
Who is this?
Seeing Gu Beichuan guessing more than a dozen crossword puzzles in a row, the store owner finally couldn't sit still.
He took out a piece of red silk and said, "Sir, this is the treasure of our store. If you can guess it, I won't keep any of these hairpins and give them all to you."
"If you can't, please be merciful. I still have to support my family. Can you please return the hairpin to me?"
When Gu Beichuan heard this, he neither agreed nor refused, but said, "Let's take a look first."
As he spoke, the shopkeeper unfolded the silk, and a line of words came into view.
"If there are insects in the water, it will be turbid; if there are fish in the water, there will be fishing. Water, water, water, rivers and lakes."
