Portable Space: The Peasant Princess

Chapter 479 Lantern Festival (2)

Lu Yuan easily squeezed to the front of the stage, pointed to the high hanging lotus lantern and said softly: "Boss, I want that lantern."

The boss was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Young master, you can have that lantern, but you have to guess the lantern riddle."

The boss was afraid that he didn't know the rules, so he hurriedly explained: "If you want to guess the riddles, you have to follow the rules and pay a tael of silver first."

Lu Yuan took out a piece of silver from his wallet and threw it directly to the boss.

The boss's eyes lit up, he reached out to take it, put it in his mouth, bit it, and said flatteringly: "Young Master, there are twelve taels here, you can guess ten times."

Lu Yuan stretched out his hand and said, "Lantern riddles."

"Okay, sir, wait a moment, I'll get you a lantern riddle right now."

The boss turned around and entered the room. After a while, he took out a red couplet and walked out.

I saw it said: If water can't work, type a word.

"Sir, please write your answer to the riddle on this piece of paper."

Lu Yuan took the pen and paper and wrote the answer directly on the paper without stopping.

The boss took it with a smile. When he saw the answer on it, the smile on his face froze slightly.

He had made a lot of money using that lotus lantern, and he thought he would be able to make a profit this time, but little did he know that someone just took a look at the lantern riddle and wrote the answer.

I saw the word "Yan" written clearly on the paper.

The boss coughed slightly and forced a smile: "Young Master is indeed very talented in writing. He wrote the answer in just one glance. Please wait a moment. I will go get you a lantern right now."

If the lanterns were sold individually, they would cost at least twenty taels. Today, he only made more than ten taels and someone guessed the answer to the riddle. He felt really unwilling to do so!

After a while, I saw the boss taking out the lantern and nine taels of silver, "Sir, this is your lantern, and there are still nine taels of silver left."

Lu Yuan only took the lantern, turned around and walked out of the crowd.

The boss was stunned and pretended to shout twice. Seeing that Lu Yuan had no intention of turning back, he felt good and took the money back with a smile.

"Hey, miss, look, isn't that the little owner of Gourmet Meike?"

Ran'er's eyes followed Lu Yuan until she saw Lu Yuan holding the lantern and stopped in front of a stall. Only then did she see Gu Panxia holding Gu Pandong in front of the stall.

When He Rou heard this, she looked up and saw that it was indeed Gu Panxia, ​​and couldn't help but beam with joy.

She put the lantern riddle back in front of the stage and walked towards Gu Panxia and Lu Yuan.

"Hey, miss, please wait for me, slave!"

Ran'er followed her step by step, carrying the lantern she won.

"Pan Xia!"

As soon as Gu Panxia took over the lantern, she heard a somewhat familiar voice coming from the crowd.

She looked back and saw He Rou walking towards her with a happy face.

She raised the corners of her lips and called out, "Rou'er, are you here too?"

He Rou frowned, "I used to celebrate the Lantern Festival in Fucheng. Although Fucheng is big, there is not even a place to put lanterns. Naturally, I can't miss it when I return to Qingyou Town this year."

She glanced at Lu Yuan and asked curiously: "Who is this young master...?"

Gu Panxia smiled and said: "My fiancé Lu Yuan!"

He Rou was startled and said in shock: "Lu Yuan? But that's Young Master Lu from the capital?"

Gu Panxia nodded, "It's him."

He Rou glanced at Lu Yuan in surprise, "I often hear people talk about it, but I didn't expect that Young Master Lu is actually your fiancé."

Gu Panxia chuckled, "It's a long story."

He Rou smiled slightly, "Are you going to put out lanterns?"

Gu Panxia nodded, "Do you want to come together?"

He Rou shook her head slightly and said with a smile: "You guys go first, I saw a lot of beautiful lanterns, take a few more and go over."

Knowing that she was embarrassed, Gu Panxia didn't force herself. The two of them were polite. He Rou said hello to Lu Yuan again, and they parted ways.

Sorry, my blood is hot and I'm sick. There are lumps all over my body. I've been on injections for a few days, but I'm feeling better today!
