Chapter 332: Lantern Riddle Conference (2)_1
Cai Wei was amused by him and said, "Big Brother Huo, don’t be so modest. If even you can’t guess this, I’m afraid even my little brother would look down on you!"
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuan glanced at the little baby in Lady Du’s arms and, indeed, saw the baby with a tiger head hat, his face full of disdainful disgust, like he had seen something stupid. The infant contemptuously turned his tender little face to one side.
Embarrassed, Huo Yuan quickly recovered, saying, "Upon further reflection, I’ve guessed it. The first riddle shouldn’t have the answer ’Ri’ from ’Ri Tou’ (Sun), should it?"
Cai Wei nodded and said: "Exactly!"
Seeing the disdainful expression on Wu’er’s little face relax somewhat, Huo Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and then pointed to the Er Lang God’s flower lantern said, "This riddle’s answer should be a bee, am I right or wrong?"
Cao Jin laughed and said, "Although Ziyou has guessed correctly, the answer was first guessed by Miss Mu, so this flower lantern and prize should be hers. Your guessing was in vain."
With that, he ordered the little boy to bring the gold mace over and rewarded it to Sister Cai Wei and her brother. Cao Jin personally took down Er Lang’s lantern and handed it to Cai Wei. Cai Wei played with it for a while before passing it on to Wen’er.
"This is the reward for guessing the lantern riddle. Take it!"
Cao Jin handed over a colorful brocade box, smiling brightly at Cai Wei.
Cai Wei took the brocade box, and when she opened it she saw several dozen light pink pearls strung together into a pearl flower. It was layers upon layers and very beautiful.
Women naturally cannot resist beautiful clothes and accessories. In addition, Cai Wei had never owned such a fine piece of jewelry. The one and only piece of jewelry she had was the green bamboo hairpin carefully carved and polished by her father, which she wears now.
After seeing this pearl flower, she couldn’t help but reveal her adoration. Twirling the pearl flower, she stared at it over and over.
