Chapter 237 Song Shuhan, matchmaker?

Although he gave me the orange, Jiang Yue put on a fierce look and said, "Give me one, don't let me see your dead look, it'll bore you to death!"

Li Lingyuan nodded like he was pounding garlic, happily peeling off the orange peel, sitting across the table and imitating Jiang Yue to eat it.

Seeing this, Jiang Yue's raised eyebrows gradually lowered, her lips curled up, and she softly cursed "idiot".

It can be seen that after Li Lingyuan ate half of the orange, he glanced at her again. Jiang Yue's smile fell, and the veins on her forehead popped up. She couldn't bear it anymore and slapped the table and shouted: "Still watching! Forget it all!"

"

Li Lingyuan shivered and was frightened. How dare he ask for Jiang Yue's oranges? He giggled and ran away, touching his nose.

Jiang Yue rolled her eyes with a "hum", finished eating the oranges in her hand, and put the last orange into her pocket.

Si Ningning hurried back before everyone set off, and returning to the educated youth point with her was Huo Lang, who was carrying a snakeskin bag.

Huo Lang was in a hurry and put down his snakeskin bag and was about to leave. Si Ningning followed a few steps behind, "Are you going directly to the brigade, or are you going back home first?"

Huo Lang wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Go directly to the brigade."

Go directly to the brigade...

Si Ningning's lips twitched, "Are you thirsty? How about I get you a glass of water and you drink it before you leave?"

"We can't make it in time. Let's wait until we get to the brigade." Huo Lang waved his hand and asked Si Ningning to enter the room. "You should also go and get ready. I guess the captain is calling people to gather and get ready to go."

"well……"

As he spoke, Huo Lang turned around and took a few steps into the shadow of the trees. Si Ningning couldn't catch up even if he wanted to.

Usually you can get water in the brigade, but today when the movie was on, every household locked their doors and went out to watch the fun. Where can I get water?

Si Ningning shook her head and went into the house to fill the kettle. Thinking that it would be inconvenient for Huo Lang to drink water, she packed up the bamboo basket and washed a bamboo cup and took it with her.

While I was busy, I saw the basket of loquats on the corner of the table. Gu Sande had picked those loquats for Huo Lang, but Huo Lang didn't take any of them and gave them all to her...

Si Ningning paused for a moment, then grabbed a dozen, washed them, put them into a basket and took them with him. The others were placed in a cool and ventilated place in the room to prevent the temperature from being too high and causing them to ripen and rot quickly.

On the other side, Mo Bei heard the female educated youth calling Si Ningning's name in the room with the male educated youth. He followed him out of the room, but as soon as his long legs took a step beyond the threshold, he took them back again.

It wasn't until Si Ningning and Huo Lang finished talking in low voices and turned around to enter the house that he pursed his lips, exhaled deeply, pretended to be nonchalant and walked out, pretending to wait for everyone to set off together.

As for the female educated youth in the main room, Jiang Yue and the others circled around the snakeskin bag in the main room, "Si Ningning, what is in here?"

"Ah? That..." Si Ningning looked at Jiang Yue the same way, tightened the cap of the water bottle and walked over, unsealing the bag directly, "It's the lotus pod, um... I walked a little far today, the production team over there

Hearing that I was an educated youth and was going to compile teaching materials, he gave me some lotus pods."

Thinking that Huo Lang helped bring it back, Si Ningning was silent and continued: "This is very heavy and difficult to carry. Fortunately, I met Comrade Huo Lang on the way and he helped me carry it back."

"Oh!" Jiang Yue nodded seriously, "No wonder he came back with you just now."

Jiang Yue believed it was true, and held up a black lotus pod as big as a bowl with a smile, "Can I eat it? Just one!"

"Eat whatever you want." Si Ningning smiled hoarsely, bent down and pinched the bottom corner of the snakeskin bag, and asked Jiang Yue to join hands and pour out the lotus pods.

Si Ningning dug through the pile of lotus pods and took out a green-skinned lotus pod and explained, "Eat this kind, it's sweet. The black-shelled one is old and not delicious when eaten raw. I'll pick it out to dry later."

Let's go back and dry it to make porridge."

"This is too much!" Xu Shuhua and Song Xiaoyun exclaimed as they looked at the lotus pods all over the hall.

A drop of cold sweat ran down the back of Si Ningning's head, it seemed like it was a bit much.

Most of them were taken to the territory, and Huo Lang should have peeled her off while she was sleeping...

Si Ningning smiled, did not answer the question, gathered up the lotus leaves and flowers on the side, "Are you about to set off?"

After saying that, he looked at Jiang Yue and asked, "Can you help me take these to the well to get a bucket of water to soak them in? I'll change my clothes."

"Okay." Jiang Yue nodded as she pecked at the rice, then walked to the well holding a large bunch of lotus flowers.

She sweated a lot in the afternoon, and her body was sticky and uncomfortable. Si Ningning originally wanted to get some water to wipe it off, but seeing that everyone was getting ready to leave, she was too embarrassed to drag a group of people to accompany her, so she just

After the heat on my body subsided, I quickly took off my long-sleeved shirt behind the room door and put on the half-sleeved shirt I made before.

When Jiang Yue went out carrying the kettle and bamboo basket, she saw it and praised her with bright eyes, "Is this the one that Rang Hui used to press the dye with a bamboo tube? It's so beautiful!"

Si Ningning nodded with a smile, "Didn't you get it too?"

Jiang Yue waved her hands with a wilted look on her face, "I dyed it, but I never had time to do it. I have only done half of it now. I'm afraid I won't be able to wear it until next year."

"That's not necessarily true. It's also very hot in autumn."

Seeing everyone gathered at the door, Xu Shuhua closed the door, raised her hand and shouted: "Everyone is here, let's go!"

"Let's go watch a movie~"

"What are you carrying in those bulging pockets of yours?"

"While you're not here this afternoon, we fried the melon seeds we saved earlier and have a try!"

"Did you save the seeds?"

"Keep it."

"Like this, um...it tastes quite delicious."

"Yeah, right! We all think so!"

…

The sun turned to the west, and a large orange halo shone diagonally through the mountains on the villages and fields in the mountains. The young boys and girls followed the setting sun along the mountain road, happily following the uncles in the team and setting off towards the group.

The girls were chatting all the way, so they lagged behind the large army. In order to ensure the safety of the girls, the male educated youths also slowed down.

"The oranges were delicious this afternoon. Have you eaten them?"

"Three for each person, have you eaten yet?" Song Shuhan gave Li Lingyuan a disgusted look. From the corner of his eye, he noticed that Mo Bei frequently looked back. Song Shuhan pushed up his glasses, then turned his head and glanced back.

The dazzling girl at the back stood in the middle, surrounded by two or three people, and she already looked like she was loved and sought after by others.

Excellent people are charming.

Song Shuhan's slender eyebrows were gently pressed down, and his eyes under the lenses were slightly curved, "Oh, this riddle of mine is so difficult. Can any female educated youth comrades come over to help me with this?"

Song Xiaoyun and Xu Shuhua, who were chatting and laughing with Si Ningning with their heads tilted to one side, instantly turned their heads and asked, "What's the riddle?"

Jiang Yue didn't care at all whether it was a riddle or not. She followed Si Ningning and wanted to discuss the course. When Song Shuhan saw that she was still clinging to Si Ningning, he thought about what was going on. He raised his lips and said: "

Jiang Yue, this riddle is related to mathematics, are you sure you don’t want to participate?"

"What? Mathematics?" Jiang Yue was startled and immediately turned around, "Participate!"

As the three girls trotted over, Song Shuhan winked at Li Lingyuan and said, "My enemy, Jiang Zhiqing will leave it to you. I'll share an orange with you when I go back tonight."

"OK!"

Song Shuhan laughed and shook his head.

Jiang Yue was deceived by Li Lingyuan, but Xu Shuhua and Song Xiaoyun had already approached Song Shuhan, "What riddle? Is it so difficult?"

"A riddle... Haha, let's talk as we walk." Song Shuhan said haha, and after giving Mo Bei a look beside him, he waved his hand to invite Song Xiaoyun and Xu Shuhua to walk forward together.

Although Song Shuhan said nothing, Mo Bei understood the meaning of that look.

——Work harder, brother.

Mo Bei subconsciously slowed down. Si Ningning walked by him and turned his head curiously, "Let's go and guess riddles! Why aren't you leaving?"

"..."

There was no riddle, it was just something Song Shuhan came up with on the spur of the moment to help him get rid of others.

Although he knew this, Mo Bei also knew that it was rare to be alone. Strangely enough, inspiration was born in an instant. Mo Beiling opened and closed his lips, "I also know that riddle."

"You know?" Si Ningning tilted her head and said "Hmm". She glanced forward from the corner of her eye and saw Song Xiaoyun and Xu Shuhua surrounding Song Shuhan on the left and right, talking so fast that Song Shuhan could hardly catch up with the words.

Si Ningning simply gave up and went to join in the fun, slowed down and chatted with Mo Bei, "What is the riddle?"

Ever since the book was sent to Mo Bei's house, Song Shuhan would always be holding a book in his hand whenever he was free.

Si Ningning felt that if he could solve Song Shuhan's riddle, it must not be an ordinary riddle, so he felt even more curious.

"I heard it from my uncle on the team when I was working in the past. Well..." Mo Bei thought about it and said: "Wear clothes during the day and shell shells at night; ring bells on the trees, play drums in the pond, and light up the lamp at night... There are two more sentences I forgot."

Si Ningning nodded and rolled her eyes without any clue. She tilted her head and asked seriously: "Do you only want to guess one answer?"

"No, except for the first sentence 'dress during the day and shell at night' which is an answer, every subsequent sentence has a corresponding answer." Mo Beidao.

"Getting dressed during the day and shelling at night...what's your guess?"

"yes……"

Seeing that Si Ningning was in trouble, Mo Bei was about to tell him the answer, but was interrupted by Si Ningning jumping up and raising his hands: "Hey, don't tell me, let me think for myself!"

"It's called guessing if it's difficult. If it's not difficult or if you just tell me the answer, then what else should I guess? That's boring!" Si Ningning's cheeks bulged, she tilted her head as she spoke, scratched her forehead and started thinking seriously. .

"Wear clothes during the day, peel rice at night...sleep? It's daytime when you wake up, so you put on clothes, and take off clothes when you go to sleep. And it's night, so clothes can be compared to a 'shell', right?" Si Ningning asked tentatively.

Mo Bei shook his head, "No."

Si Ningning hissed, a little surprised, but if Mo Bei said it wasn't, it probably wasn't, so Si Ningning continued to think seriously.

"Although it's wrong, it's very close." Mo Bei promptly provided clues, "Well... the answer is actually very vague. There are two guesses. One is daily necessities and the other is limbs. Either one is correct."

In fact, there is only one answer, but after careful consideration, Mo Bei felt that two answers were more reasonable.

After Mo Bei reminded him, the range of answers was much narrowed. Si Ningning thought for a moment and quickly came to the conclusion, "It's feet and shoes, right?"

Although the human body's organs are very complex and there are many types, there are only a few that meet the requirements of "day and night". If I had to guess, clothes and the body also meet the requirements. However, because the clothes are relatively large and soft, they can only be considered abstract.

Shell in the sense.

But the shoes are different.

The shoes are small and relatively hard because of the soles, and the shape is somewhat similar to melon seeds. Combined with the "peeling rice" in the second half of the sentence, it is indeed more suitable as an answer.

Si Ningning carefully explained the basis of his guess to Mo Bei. Mo Bei nodded without hesitation, "The answer is correct."

"As expected of me!"

The girl clenched her fists happily, and the evening breeze carried her crisp laughter away.

The boy beside him stood tall and tall, and his handsome face with sharp edges under the black hair that reflected the sunset light suddenly softened.

"Would you like to guess the other few?"

Mo Beiling opened and closed his lips, and his voice was like a dripping spring in a mountain stream, "ding dong, ding dong". It was less cold than usual and had a touch of warmth and gentleness, which made people feel at ease listening to it.

Si Ningning folded his hands and stretched above his head. He raised his crescent eyebrows slightly and nodded with a smile, "Of course!"

Compared with the first sentence, the following sentences are much easier to guess. After Mo Bei explained that "tang" means pond, Si Ningning gave the answer instantly:

"A bell is ringing on a tree. The 'bell' is related to the sound, so it is cicada."

"It's the same as playing drums in the pond, so it refers to frogs."

"Do you keep a light on at night..." Si Ningning chuckled, thinking of the previous metaphors, she quickly gave the answer: "Of course they are fireflies!"

Mo Bei's words "all correct" only increased Si Ningning's pride.

Si Ningning became interested and asked if Mo Bei had done it yet. After Mo Bei asked a few more ordinary riddles, she felt a little boring, so she waved her hand and said, "I also have a few riddles, do you want to guess them?"

Guess?"

Mo Bei was stunned and nodded slowly, "Okay."

Si Ningning's pupils swayed, the corners of her lips curved, and she opened her mouth: "Both brothers are the same length, and they go in and out as pairs. Accompanying your loved ones, you will enjoy all the happiness, and he will taste the big fish and meat first."

"Chopsticks." Mo Bei said without thinking.

"Don't think it's all that simple. This is my test for you." Si Ningning smiled and continued: "A bird in the sky can be held tightly by a thread. It is not afraid of the wind blowing, but it is afraid of the raindrops drifting away."

Mo Bei was misled by the "thread", and with clues such as wind and rain, he tentatively answered: "Spider?"

"No, guess again!" Si Ningning shook his head, his eyes bright, waiting for Mo Bei to ask her for the answer if he couldn't guess.

But Mo Bei didn't go as she expected. After pondering for a moment, he gave the correct answer, "It's a kite."

A spider web is made up of multiple "threads" and a kite is one thread.

You guessed it so quickly?

Si Ningning puffed up her cheeks and felt a little unconvinced, "I'll give you another test!"

After Mo Bei nodded, she moved her lips and said: "I am dressed in pure white, but when I meet my enemy with a dark face, I would rather be shattered into pieces if my intelligence and talent are exhausted."

Happy Children’s Day! Another update on the 9th!
