Chapter 1317
"Hmph! What do you know? How can we use common sense to figure out the lantern riddles from the Imperial Tower?"
Liu Xiangsi said with a cold face: "Don't think that just because you were lucky enough to guess a question, you can tell me what to do. In terms of real ability, you are not qualified!"
In her opinion, Lu Chen was lucky. A blind cat met a dead mouse, so he answered the first question correctly.
But this kind of luck cannot always exist.
"Really? It seems that Miss Liu is very confident in her answer." Lu Chen smiled half-heartedly.
"certainly!"
Liu Xiangsi raised her head: "I am well-read in poetry and books, and I am talented. If I can't even figure out this little lantern riddle, how can I have the face to meet people in the future?"
Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh.
This woman is really not ordinary confident.
"Brother Lu, why don't you share your opinion? We can discuss it together," Liu Cong said.
"Since Mr. Liu is willing to listen, I will express some humble opinions."
Lu Chen picked up the tea cup and took a sip, and then said: "The clouds cover the Mid-Autumn Festival moon, and the rain showers the Lantern Festival lanterns. This sentence means that if the moon is covered by clouds on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, then there will definitely be spring rain around the Lantern Festival in the coming year.
Continuously, soaking the Lantern Festival lanterns."
"Hmph! Of course I know what this means, why do you need to show off here?" Liu Xiangsi snorted coldly.
The clouds cover the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it rains on the Lantern Festival night.
This situation completely coincides with the two artistic conceptions she mentioned.
"Brother Lu, so what is your answer?" Liu Cong asked tentatively.
"Whereabouts unknown." Lu Chen spat out four words.
"Whereabouts unknown?" Liu Cong was slightly startled: "What do you mean?"
"The clouds covering the Mid-Autumn Moon allude to rain, which echoes the last sentence, so the word 'fall' refers to the falling rain. After the rain falls, it extinguishes the Lantern Festival lanterns, so it is naturally 'unknown', so the answer is
'Whereabouts unknown'." Lu Chen said calmly.
"That doesn't make any sense!" As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Xiangsi immediately retorted: "What's missing? That's nonsense! It's just a superficial analysis like yours, without any profound meaning. Do you think the Imperial Tower will be as superficial as you are?
?”
"I'm just solving the riddle according to the question. Believe it or not, it's up to you." Lu Chen spread his hands.
There is no point in arguing with such a conceited woman.
Because even if you make extravagant remarks, the other party will still be able to find faults and find various reasons to refute.
"Elder brother! Don't listen to this guy's nonsense, mine is the correct answer!" Liu Xiangsi said confidently.
"this"
Liu Cong looked left and right, looking a little hesitant.
The father-in-law said that the father-in-law was right, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was right. Their explanations sounded the same.
As for who to trust, he was still a little unsure.
"Elder brother, don't you believe my judgment?"
Liu Xiangsi frowned and looked a little unhappy: "You should be very clear about my literary talent. The previous question was just a mistake. I am 100% sure that I can win this question!"
"Really?" Liu Cong raised his eyebrows.
"More real than pearls!" Liu Xiangsi looked serious.
"Okay! Since junior sister is so confident, then I will try again!" Liu Cong became energetic.
If you dare to say something like this, you must be confident.
This time, nothing will go wrong again.
"Shopkeeper Chen, I know the answer to the puzzle."
Liu Cong stood up again and attracted everyone's attention.
I lost my face before, now I want to get it back no matter what.
"I would like to hear the details." The fat man nodded slightly.
"The clouds cover the Mid-Autumn Moon and the rain drenches the Lantern Festival lanterns, which refers to two artistic conceptions, the joy of reunion and the regret of separation, so my answer is - joys and sorrows!" Liu Cong held his head high.
