After being deliberately delayed by Ma Mingyu, Ma Jun sped up and was about to catch up with Doudou.
Ma Mingyu smiled triumphantly and deliberately raised his eyebrows at Xie Yunjiao.
Want to fight her? No way!
"Lian Jin, this is a bottle of makeup remover oil from my store. If that woman keeps talking nonsense here, you don't have to be polite to her. Just pour it on her face." Xie Yunjiao handed the thing to Lian Jin.
Lian Jin said yes and looked at Ma Mingyu without blinking.
Ma Mingyu's heart sank. The things in Xie Yunjiao's shop were all very useful. Although she had not shown up in person, she had asked her maid to buy them on her behalf.
The makeup on her face now is all done with Xie Yunjiao's products. If it is splashed by her makeup remover oil, all the hard work she put in preparing for a whole day will be wasted.
Ma Mingyu glared at Xie Yunjiao and said through gritted teeth, "How dare you?"
"Just wait and see if I dare you. If you dare to make trouble again, I will not only pour makeup remover oil on your face, but I will also tear off your headdress and clothes."
Although when it comes to power and influence, she is naturally no match for Ma Mingyu.
But as a woman herself, she knew best what Ma Mingyu was afraid of.
"You...you, you are shameless." It was the first time that Ma Mingyu felt so humiliated.
She originally thought that Lai Junfang and his sister were stupid and were fooled by Xie Yunjiao, but she didn't expect that Xie Yunjiao was like a shrew, fearless and not to be provoked.
"Oh my god, they all guessed the last one."
“That’s amazing!”
There were frequent sighs in the crowd. No one expected that Doudou was so young but not inferior to Ma Jun.
Everyone fell silent, waiting with bated breath to see who would be the Lantern King this year.
"You all got it right! You are so amazing. You guessed the riddle of Kao so early, but there is only one Kao. What should we do?" the organizer said in embarrassment.
He had ordered people to rack their brains to increase the difficulty of the riddles this year, but when they met Doudou and Ma Jun, they answered all the riddles correctly in a short time. What should he do?
"There is only one King of Lanterns, how do we divide it?" The crowd began to make a commotion.
To be honest, Doudou looks only five or six years old, but it is amazing that he can answer all the riddles so quickly.
But his opponent was Ma Jun, the son of the county magistrate, and no one dared to offend him.
Everyone just sighed in their hearts but didn't dare to say it out loud.
"Since they all guessed the last riddle correctly, it proves that they are all qualified to get the King of Lanterns.
"But there's only one King of Lights, so why not have a bonus round? Whoever can answer the five bonus questions the fastest will win." Xie Yunjiao said.
Ma Mingyu was beaming with joy because Ma Jun answered the lantern king's riddle correctly, but when she heard Xie Yunjiao's words, her face darkened, as if she could squeeze water out of it.
"No, my brother answered the Lantern King's riddle correctly, so the Lantern King should be his. It has been like this for years." Ma Mingyu said.
Xie Yunjiao was amused by her self-righteousness. "You must be mistaken. My child also answered correctly. If you hadn't come to disrupt the conversation, my child would have definitely answered faster than your brother."
"Nonsense, my brother won based on his strength. How could he lose to a kid who hasn't even grown all his hair?" Ma Mingyu said.
"Wang Po is just bragging about her melons." Xie Yunjiao gave Ma Mingyu a disdainful look.
Ma Mingyu was furious and completely forgot about her deliberate disruption.
"My brother is the best."
Ma Jun was dissatisfied, so he did not stop Ma Mingyu, but was happy to see it happen.
Xie Yunjiao raised the corner of her mouth: "Okay, since you say he is good and I say my son is good, let's have another match."
"Let's compete, who's afraid of who."
Ma Mingyu regretted it as soon as he finished speaking.
She just said she wouldn't compete, but she couldn't take back the words she had said.
She could only glare at Xie Yunjiao fiercely. It was this woman who caused her to speak out!
"Sir, please give us the questions," said Xie Yunjiao.
The crowd who were about to leave gathered around again. They were all very curious and wanted to know who would win.
The organizer waved his hand and said, "Sir, I don't deserve it." He was not a scholar at all, and his belly was not very well-educated. What should he do? He leaned close to Xie Yunjiao and said, "Miss, I really can't think of any other lantern riddles. I have told you everything I know."
"Can you solve riddles?" Xie Yunjiao asked.
"Brain teasers?" The host had no idea what Xie Yunjiao was talking about.
Xie Yunjiao leaned close to his ear and talked for a while.
The organizer's eyes lit up. Although the question sounded strange, the answer actually made sense.
Quite interesting.
"What are you guys whispering about? Are you trying to cheat?" Ma Mingyu said.
"Ms. Ma, how could that be? This young lady was just giving me some pointers. I'm already prepared and can ask the questions."
He looked at Ma Jun and then at Doudou: "Are you ready?"
"I'm ready." Doudou's clear and lovely voice sounded.
Ma Jun nodded slightly.
"Listen carefully, guess something, something everyone has on their body: hair on the top, hair on the bottom, and a black grape in the middle."
Ma Jun was stunned. What the hell? This is not a riddle.
There is hair all over the body, or is it just hair on the body? What is it?
Ma Mingyu couldn't help but get anxious when he saw Ma Jun lost in thought, but he didn't dare to urge him.
However, Doudou over there also fell into deep thought. Now it just depends on who can get the answer the fastest.
"It's the eyes!"
Doudou and Ma Jun said in unison.
It is said that smart people have very good brains. Everyone was still guessing what that hairy thing was, but Doudou and Ma Jun guessed it.
The organizer glanced at Xie Yunjiao. It seemed that Xie Yunjiao's idea was not working. If they kept fighting in a tie, wouldn't it be endless?
But he had no better idea, so under Ma Mingyu's urging, he had to bite the bullet and continue asking.
"What gets dirtier the more you wash it?"
Everyone was confused. Shouldn't things be clean after washing? How could they get dirtier the more they washed? Had this person been so shocked that he became stupid, actually asking such a question?
"water!"
Another synchronous answer.
The onlookers suddenly realized and wondered how come no one had thought of the answer to such a simple question?
"It seems the two of you are equally matched. Then I can only continue asking." The host paused and asked, "Which one is stronger, the white hen or the black hen?"
"They are all hens, how can we tell which one is more powerful?" someone in the crowd couldn't help but mutter.
"Shut up! If you cause my brother to lose, I won't let you go." Ma Mingyu said gritting her teeth.
The man immediately shut up, not daring to breathe.
Ma Jun was in a dilemma, he couldn't guess.
He couldn't help but look up at Doudou, wanting to see if he could guess.
In that instant, he saw Doudou open his mouth, and he took the risk and blurted out: "Black."
Doudou also said black.
"Congratulations, both of you, you both got the answer right," said the host.
"Wait a moment."
