The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 13 13. Lantern Riddles

When I opened it, it turned out to be a palm-sized stone surface inlaid with gold. It had gold as the base and many rice beads hanging thinly along the gold edge. The tourmaline was peach and the emerald was leaf. It was both gorgeous and delicate.

Someone who knows something can tell it at a glance and said excitedly, "Is this the dowry given to Princess Wen Yi by the palace?"

"Sister, you have a good eye. I spent a long time on my mother to get this for the jackpot. How about it?"

"In this case, the elder sister won't hide it anymore, she is bound to win!"

The speaker was the fourth daughter of Zheng Guogong's family. She usually treasured jewelry. How could she miss this good opportunity? So she invited three or two relatives and friends, and immediately formed a team to get the red bracelets.

Naturally, Bai Siruo wanted to join in the fun. He chose a white bracelet and joined Feng Jinyao, Xu Mingyue and other little sisters who usually played well as a team.

Soon, there were also candidates for the yellow bracelets, and only the purple bracelets were left. Bai Siruo was about to ask when he saw Liang Luo saying loudly, "We choose purple."

As soon as these words came out, even those who wanted to participate might not have the guts.

Wei Lanxuan, Liang Luo, and Wen Yuwei were seen walking forward slowly, and they all took the purple bracelets, but one person was missing.

Unexpectedly, Bai Sihan came out from behind, bowed to Wei Lanxuan, and said in a clear voice like a lark.

"Sister Wei, if you don't mind me, Sihan is willing to join your team."

"Oh, it's you?"

"Bai Sihan, the legitimate daughter of the Bai family."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Bai Siruo, with both curiosity and gloating in their eyes.

The ones who were curious were naturally the ladies from aristocratic families who played well with Bai Siruo. They had never heard that Bai Siruo had sisters. The ones who were gloating were naturally Wen Yuwei, Liang Luo and others, with the sneer in their eyes almost not spilling out.

After showing a dignified and generous smile, Wei Lanxuan personally stepped forward to help Bai Sihan up, "Sister Bai was rarely seen in the past, but we need to interact with her more in the future."

"Thank you, sister." Bai Sihan looked like he was sure to follow your lead, which made Wei Lanxuan secretly happy.

Prime Minister Bai and Duke Wei were both elders of the three dynasties. Although they were not openly political enemies, Duke Wei had already been a member of the Nine Princes Party. After trying many times to win over Prime Minister Bai, he did not see Prime Minister Bai express his position. Instead, he became angry and used it in private. Unexpectedly, all the stumbling blocks were resolved one by one. From then on, the Bai and Wei families had some secret conflicts.

Although it can't be said to be a blood feud, if they can make the other party suffer, they will enjoy the results.

Bai Siruo looked at Bai Sihan, the warning in his eyes was self-evident.

Her eyes almost popped out of her head, and she didn't see Bai Sihan give her a straight face. She was very angry, but Feng Jinyao grabbed her tightly and whispered in her ear.

"Don't forget your aunt's instructions. Don't cause trouble today."

"Hmph, consider her lucky. When the birthday party is over, let's see how I deal with her."

The character of the Bai family was completely ruined by this girl. She licked her face and sent it to the Wei family to trample on. She was really as hateful as her mother, and she was even more angry with the mother and daughter in her heart.

"In that case, let's talk about the rules of the game first. After all, there is nothing without rules."

Xu Mingyue came out to interrupt Bai Siruo's anger, but Liang Luo looked at it and sneered.

An imperceptible coldness flashed across Liang Luo's eyes. The daughter of the Xu family was really good-looking. She was obviously engaged to the Liang family, but she refused to say a word to her future sister-in-law. Every time she came forward, she She was coldly rebuffed when she deliberately approached, but now she was standing next to the Bai family. Wasn't this a slap in her face?

What a fake lady from everyone, but she is so swaying behind her back!

So, with a hint of gunpowder in his tone, he said provocatively to Xu Mingyue, "How do you want to compete, Miss Xu? We have to talk about it first, and everyone present will witness it. Don't let us win and not be able to take away the things."

Bai Siruo didn't like Xu Mingyue's future sister-in-law. She looked sarcastic and always looked down upon herself. She always felt that the aristocratic family in Mandongdu should be friends with her, so she retorted.

"It's a joke. I guarantee it in the name of the county owner. Since I took this thing out, I won't do anything for personal gain. If Miss Liang is really capable, just take it."

"In that case, let's see."

Liang Luo's affirmative tone made the other two teams feel uncertain after hearing this, and in fact provoked Bai Siruo to insist on competing.

After several parties started fighting, the eldest daughter of Zheng Guogong's family was the judge.

The rules are also simple. There are ten sets of lantern riddles in total, and whoever guesses them first wins.

With a ding sound, the jade chopsticks hit the jade chime, and the game began.

Bai Siruo immediately opened all ten lantern riddles and handed them to the other three.

Guess she can't do this, but with Xu Mingyue here, they can't lose.

Originally, I just wanted to add some luck and let the sisters and sister-in-law have fun, but I didn't expect Wei Lanxuan and her group to get into trouble with them. In that case, there was nothing to be afraid of.

After all, there are probably not many lantern riddles in the entire Dongdu city that Xu Mingyue doesn't know about.

The Xu family has a collection of tens of millions of books, and she grew up in a library, so she is naturally full of literary talents.

Xu Mingyue glanced at her with a frown and whispered, "Don't be as knowledgeable as her, she is only a half-grown child."

Although the words did not say who it was, everyone present knew that she was talking about Liang Luo, the legitimate daughter of the Liang family. After all, the Xu and Liang families were engaged, and after the Chinese New Year, there was no telling when they would become a family. It does no one any good to make a fuss.

"Don't let me offend you. Before you became her sister-in-law, you were still my best sister."

Bai Siruo pouted and used sisterly love as a "blackmail" in her words. Seeing her like this, Xu Mingyue couldn't help lowering her head to hide her smile. To Liang Luo and others, this scene seemed to be mocking them.

"Hmph, you don't know what's good and what's good!"

On the contrary, Bai Sihan on the side didn't think as much as they did. All he could think about was that he must take this opportunity to perform well today.

"The wind comes and goes, and the geese move diagonally in front of the peak."

After murmuring this sentence, I quickly got the answer.

The word "Fengxian" fell on the paper, the next one.

"My sister is very talented and she guessed the answer to the riddle so quickly."

Wei Lanxuan was obviously full of curiosity about this new legitimate daughter of the Bai family. She originally thought that she was just there to annoy Bai Siruo, but she didn't expect that she was really angry.

"My sister was very complimentary. I just read two more books at home, and this sentence happened to be in it, so I memorized it."

Wei Lanxuan's humble attitude made her feel very comfortable.

After Liang Luo read this answer, he felt less contempt for her.

He was about to say something, but was interrupted by Bai Siruo's loud laughter.
