Chapter 742 Stupid

Not to mention the Lantern Festival in the Imperial City today, but wealthy businessmen bought fireworks and wanted to set them off by the river in the city. Chen Ming did not go to the palace to attend the Lantern Festival banquet today, because the two elders of the Shen family were about to leave the Imperial City after the Lantern Festival, so he planned to show them how lively the lanterns in the Imperial City would be before the two elders left.

The Lantern Festival banquet in the palace is basically available every year, and it’s nothing to go there anytime less. However, when his parents left the imperial city this time, they didn’t know when they would come, and they couldn’t see the lantern festival in the imperial city every year.

As soon as it darkened, Chen Ming took the two elders of the Shen family, Song Ziling and Huier out of the General's Mansion together. There were many people on the street today, so they did not take the carriage, but walked directly.

Qiuju also went out to watch the lanterns, but she did not go along with Chen Ming and the others, but with Qiao Mu.

There are many people on the street. Not only are the streets covered with lanterns, but there are also ropes pulled between the buildings opposite the street, and beautiful lanterns are hung on the ropes.

On the street, people were flocking to each other, and there were small stalls selling gadgets and food, and there were endless shouts of hawking.

Li held his grandson's hand and had been walking around for a long time, but he was still dazzled.

"This imperial city lantern festival is really lively." In their small Luoshui Town, you can't see such a spectacular scene.

Chen Yi nodded and said, "It's really lively." He deserves to be at the feet of the emperor.

Song Ziling said in a stall where he guessed lantern riddles: "My grandfather and grandmother, there is a stall where he guessed lantern riddles in front of him. Let's go guess riddles!"

Chen Yi nodded and the group arrived at the stall where the riddle guessed. There were many people surrounding the stall, and they finally squeezed in.

There was a sign next to the stall, and Song Ziling looked at it

The words on the sign say: "Guess the riddle for twenty texts once, guess the first one correctly and get ten texts, and guess the second one correctly and get twenty texts. The bonus can be accumulated, and the bonus amount has doubled and has it been long?"

This is the first time Song Ziling has seen such a thing. Generally, if he guesses riddles, he will get the corresponding lanterns, but this one will get the money.

A young scholar with a scarf tied hair was standing in front of the stall thinking hard. He had guessed three of them correctly, and now he was stuck on the fourth one. If he guessed this one correctly, he would get 15 cents of silver, but if he couldn't guess, not only would the seventy cents he guessed correctly, but the twenty cents he paid were also wasted.

"Can you guess this scholar? If you can't guess it, leave quickly and let someone else guess!" The stall owner looked at the scholar with a smile.

The scholar glared at the stall owner, shook his sleeves and left.

Chen Ming and the others watched for a while, then watched two people guessed riddles with money, and understood what was going on.

This is a routine. Although it only takes twenty fonts to guess riddles, and the bonus increases exponentially. The riddles produced by the stall owners are becoming more and more difficult. They basically can’t guess the third and fourth ones. After guessing correctly, they can take the prize and leave. If they continue to challenge, they will not get a penny. Because everyone wants to get more bonuses, they will choose to continue to challenge after guessing, but they often fail, and no one leaves with the bonus. The stall owner grasps this kind of mentality, so they set up such a special riddle guessing stall.

Chen Ming looked at his father and said, "Dad, let's go! It's really no point in guessing riddles like this." He didn't like this way of guessing riddles.

The stall owner was happily collecting the money. When he heard Chen Ming say this, he immediately said with a stern face: "You are stupid and can't guess riddles. Instead, he said that guessing riddles like this is boring. Everyone thinks it's very interesting!"

His business is in good order now! Isn’t this guy going to ruin his place?

Stupid brain? Chen Ming widened his eyes. It was the first time that someone said he was stupid brained when he grew up so big.

"Puff..." Chen Yi couldn't help laughing and pointed at his son and said, "You are also called stupid."

"Dad..." Chen Ming's face was full of dark lines. Is this his biological father?

Li couldn't help but cover his lips and smiled. Since Ming'er was born, everyone has praised him for his intelligence. Today, some people finally said that he was stupid.

Song Ziling held back a smile and said, "Uncle said you are stupid, I think you can teach him how to be a human being."

Huier stretched out her hand, gathered her five fingers, and rushed to Chen Ming, "Young Master, give him some color."

Chen Ming twitched the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath, took out twenty copper plates from his purse, and placed them on the stall with a snap and said, "I want to guess riddles."
