Chapter 360 Guessing Lantern Riddles

The Fang family’s bowls are not small.

After eating half a bowl of rice, she was already 90% full.

The remaining one point will be given to the candied haws.

"Come here, little kid, I'll give it to you first." As soon as he finished speaking, the old man handed over a string of candied haws.

There are eight on it.

When Jiang Fubao received it in his hand, he suddenly felt it was heavy.

She licked it.

The sugar on the outside of the candied haws has frozen hard and is a bit sweet, but when you take a bite, the hawthorn is very sour.

The balance of the two makes the taste double.

The other children also got the candied haws one after another.

So they started walking forward again.

As we walked around, we reached the middle of the lantern festival and saw more and more people wearing masks.

It adds a touch of mystery to the lantern festival.

Some of these masks are half-face and some are full-face.

Most of them are made of wood.

There are various patterns drawn on it.

There are animals and there are gods.

There were also many people carrying lanterns.

Compared with the ordinary lanterns sold by vendors, the little rabbit lanterns carried by two women were particularly beautiful.

Jiang Fubao couldn't take his eyes away.

Is this the rabbit lantern my sister mentioned?

It's too realistic.

"Brother, I want that lantern." Fang Wanru also took a fancy to it.

She started to act coquettishly in front of her brother.

"If they were available, it would be impossible for us to have only seen two lanterns when we got here. They must have been obtained by guessing lantern riddles. Let's go. They should be in front. I'll get one for you."

Fang Changyi, who is well-educated, is ready to show off his skills and make his sisters admire him.

However, a group of people came to the place where riddles were guessed.

I was immediately dumbfounded.

There were many people gathered here, but the tall wooden racks were full of lanterns, and no one could get them.

"You guessed wrong!" said the man guarding the lanterns.

There were sighs from the crowd.

"Why are the riddles this year so difficult?"

"Yes, I have been standing here for 25 minutes and I haven't seen anyone answer correctly."

"My wife wants that rabbit lantern, but unfortunately I don't have enough knowledge."

"These lanterns were made by craftsmen invited from the Imperial City and Jiangnan. Of course, they are not easy to come by, so the riddles are more difficult than before. Until now, only two people have guessed them correctly. There are still more than 20 here. I don't know who will guess them next."

The man who had watched the longest gave them the answer.

At this time, Jiang Fubao was already dazzled.

Oops.

Why are the lanterns in ancient times so beautiful? There are lanterns in the shape of rabbits, fish, birds, lotus flowers, shrimps, cranes and crabs.

No wonder there are so many young ladies visiting lantern festivals in novels.

They would fight over a lantern.

Who wouldn’t want it?

Jiang Fubao couldn't even walk.

Unfortunately, Fang Changyi squeezed to the innermost part and guessed twice, but failed to guess correctly.

When he came out, he was extremely disappointed.

"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have brought my uncle here. He is the smartest." Jiang Fubao sighed as he stood in the crowd.

"You kid, even if your grandfather comes, it's useless. Just now, he couldn't even guess the scholar. Could it be that your grandfather is a juren?"

A scholar who looked to be in his twenties and holding a folding fan mocked Jiang Fubao.

"Yes, my godfather was a juren." Jiang Fubao didn't hear it and thought that the man was asking her sincerely.

"Uh." The man felt a little embarrassed. He opened his folding fan, fanned himself a bit, then felt cold again, so he simply turned around and left.

As soon as he left, the people around him felt bored and followed him.

There is a vacant space.

Zhang Jinlan and Yunlan took them and took the opportunity to squeeze in.

"Aunt, please help us guess the riddles." Jiang Fubao thought.

Among them, only Aunt Yunlan is smarter.

If she can't guess.

Then there's no chance.

"Okay, Auntie, guess it." Yun Lan also became interested.

She shouted to the man guarding the lantern.

The man came over.

Not many people guessed it correctly, so in order not to waste time, he didn't say anything and just released the riddle directly.

"There is something that you can normally pick up with your left hand, but you can't pick it up with your right hand. Why is that?"

As soon as these words came out.

Jiang Fubao was confused.

Is this a riddle? Isn't this a brain teaser?

"I can get it with my left hand, but not with my right? Could it be that... my right arm is missing?"

Yun Lan was also stunned.

This was the first time she had heard this riddle.

"wrong."

The man's expression never changed. After saying the wrong thing, he turned around and was about to go to the other side, where someone called him.

"There is something that you can usually get with your left hand, but you can't get with your right hand. What is it——"

The exact same words were heard over there.

"Because he has hemiplegia!"

“Hahahahahaha, this is so funny—”

Many of the onlookers laughed so hard that their stomachs hurt.

But when I think about it, it makes sense.

So countless pairs of eyes looked at the guard in front of them expectantly, waiting for his answer.

"wrong!"

The guard still had a stern face and after he finished speaking grimly, he folded his hands over his chest.

Stand straight.

Stand in front of the lantern.

"I know I know!"

Jiang Fubao raised his arms.

Jumping and skipping.

She is too short.

Although she has grown a little taller, no one would notice her unless she jumped.

Sure enough, the man guarding the lantern searched for a long time before he found Jiang Fubao.

Again, say it out loud.

Everyone around was thinking.

Jiang Fubao did not hesitate for a second and said loudly: "Because this thing belongs to the right hand, of course the right hand cannot reach the right hand!"

"Oh, that's why, no wonder!"

"This kid looks only about four or five years old, how come he is so smart?"

"Is it really the right hand? I feel it is right, but also wrong."

"Excuse me, is this correct?"

Many people in the crowd exclaimed.

"Congratulations, you got the answer right. You can choose any one of these lanterns." The guard was stunned for a moment, then smiled the next second.

Congratulations to Jiang Fubao.

Zhang Jinlan’s eyes widened.

Her granddaughter is so smart?

Yun Lan and several children also looked at her.

Fang Changyi guessed twice but failed to get it right, but five-year-old Jiang Fubao guessed it right the first time.

It's so embarrassing.

Fang Changyi's face flushed.

Yunlan is fine.

She looked at Jiang Fubao with admiration and surprise in her eyes.

"Uncle, I want that rabbit lantern." Jiang Fubao said, pointing at the pink rabbit lantern hanging at the highest point.

She thinks this lantern is the most beautiful of all the rabbit lanterns.

"Okay." The guard took down the rabbit lantern and handed it to her.

But Jiang Fubao gave it to Fang Wanru in the next second.

"Sister Fubao, what is this? You, you don't have to give it to me, just play with it yourself, I'm fine." Fang Wanru didn't have the nerve to ask for it, so she pushed it away.

"It's okay, it's okay. Since sister Wanru likes rabbits, I'll give you the first one and I'll continue guessing." Seeing her refuse, Jiang Fubao's domineering president attitude took over.

Put it directly into her hand.
