Chapter 305 The Puzzle Is Just an Appetizer

A provocative voice sounded on the left side of the lobby, attracting everyone to look at each other. Walking further into the lobby was a connected area, so many people surrounded him and wanted to know who the person talking was.

Xin Xiran stood up first and said angrily: "Kong Yubei, if you want to find fault, go out. You are not welcome here."

Gong Yubei shrugged: "I received the invitation, but the host didn't say anything. Why is Mr. Xin anxious? Besides, we are all here. The host didn't show up and asked us to wait and wait. What does it mean?"

Xin Xiran remembered that when he was in the academy a few years ago, Gong Yubei always wanted to find Sier for trouble. He was even more angry. If he had followed his temper in the past, he would have rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward. At this time, he also held back and hummed, "There is a bamboo, a screen and a painting here. No matter what is the owner's place? You are a vulgar person, you have to waste this elegant scenery. You have to hold on to someone. You are asking you to come to drink and eat, but you are not here to see someone."

Gong Yubei did not comment, but smiled and ignored it. At this moment, there was a burst of applause and noise from the crowd. Everyone looked over, but saw a girl walking out of the inner hall.

The girl was wearing a green brocade robe, with a long white silk ribbon around her waist, and a cloud boot. The black hairpin was tied high with a green ribbon, with only a bamboo hairpin. A pair of almond eyes were so beautiful that the world was so beautiful, clear but deep, and gentle but with a sharp edge.

She is tall, but now she is wearing men's clothes, with fair skin and beautiful appearance, and is even more handsome. She looks like a handsome young man, but she is more handsome than the young man. Although she is dressed in men, it does not make people feel strange. Instead, she looks pleasing to the eye, as if that outfit should be worn on a woman. But if she changes that outfit to other girls, she will feel a little inappropriate.

Of course, Yao Si herself appeared. She dressed up specifically for today, but her courtyard clothes were men's clothing. She felt a little awkward when she got used to wearing them. So today's outfit was not changed to her daughter's skirt. Although it was a bit unreasonable, the ones she invited today were all classmates from the academy. Everyone usually dressed up men's clothing, so they didn't think anything strange.

Yao Si smiled and stepped forward and said, "Since it is the answer, there must be an answer. Young Master Gong Yu is knowledgeable and talented, can't he think of an answer?"

Gong Yubei spread his hands and said, "I was born as a general. You asked me to play this literary game, but it was a bit difficult for me."

Yao Si smiled apologetically: "I thought the young master of the apartment was both civil and military, but I remembered it wrongly, don't blame me."

Gong Yubei was choked and choked. He was denied the title of a talentless warrior in a few words by Yao Si. But those words came from his own, making it difficult for him to argue.

Xin Xiran gloated and said, "No one has the ability to be both civil and military, and being a martial artist is also excellent."

Gong Yubei glared at him and shut up in disappointment. This round he admitted that he was inferior.

Seeing that everyone was surrounded by people, Yao Si guessed that it was the effect of Gong Yubei's words just now, so he simply stood in the center and shouted: "The store opens today. Thank you for your support. The owner is making friends through literature. Any questions in this store can be free.

Just now, Young Master Gong Yu has said that, I will show my ugly words today. I will leave this lantern and the questions on the wall for you. I will show you a question. If someone can answer it, food, wine and water will be avoided. If no one can answer it in half a stick of incense, I will give you another answer, how about it?"

Ordinary riddles are actually quite simple, and these literati have been tired of playing with them. However, after just seeing the puzzle on the lantern, they really have no idea. While they want to know what the answer is, they also want to guess it themselves. They are very conflicted. Now Yao Si is about to come up with a new question, and everyone is eager to try it out.

Yao Si cleared his throat and said loudly: "By the way, there was a shop selling wine. Although it was aged and good wine, the shop was not eye-catching and the owner was not good at speaking and could not attract customers. So the business was light. Until one day, a scholar went to ask for a bowl of wine. After eating, the scholar left a poem on the shop door:

A bright moon hangs in the sky, and a lady and a talented man are in the same row. The blue waves meet at the You hour by the pool, so you can read poetry and books carefully without sayings.

The scholar left this poem and left, but what was amazing was that the business of this shop was getting better and better. I wonder why you are?"

Hum? The crowd began to whisper and seemed to be discussing. Soon, someone said, "Because he has good calligraphy."

Yao Si smiled but said nothing, but there was a negative meaning in his eyes.

Another person began, "Because he wrote his poems well, he might be a famous poet."

Yao Si still smiled, "You can think slowly, eat while thinking. After a stick of incense, if no one knows the answer, I will reveal the answer again." After she finished speaking, she went to the left.

When Xin Xiran saw her coming, she ran up and smiled and said, "Si'er, what is your answer?"

Yao Si glanced at him, "It's so simple, you should know."

"Ah?" Xin Xiran touched her head, "Why didn't I figure it out if you say that poem again?"

Yao Si smiled slightly, "That question is an appetizer for them. It is simple and easy to say, and it is difficult to say. I believe that someone here already knows the answer. I won't talk about the question anymore. I have prepared good things today."

When Xin Xiran heard that it was a good thing, her eyes immediately lit up. She quickly grabbed Yao Si's sleeve and sat down. As soon as she sat down, the other students who were invited also sat down one by one. As soon as the people here sat together, a friend came up with a tray in turn.

First, a jar of wine was placed on each table, and then a guy held a wine utensil and placed it at each person in turn. The other guy then started pouring wine for each wine utensil. At this time, everyone had noticed that the wine utensils that served the wine, and their eyes lit up. They stopped the wine utensils and picked up the wine utensils and started playing with them.

But I saw that this wine utensil was better, or the wine utensil was better. Not only was it green in color, but it was still like leaves. I usually drink wine. I used wine utensils that looked like leaves, and no one had seen this wine utensil that looked like leaves.

"This thing is fresh. I have never seen it before. It's not from Linxi, right?" Wang Zhan asked first.

Yao Si just smiled slightly, but Lan Xin behind him couldn't help but interrupt, "Of course, this was made by our girl himself. Each piece is unique. You think it is a leaf, but each leaf is different, and even the color is different."

As soon as Lan Xin finished speaking, someone took his wine utensil and compared it to the next one. It turned out that the shapes were different. Some were oval, some were palm-shaped, and some were lanceolate. In short, there was no other duplicate.
