Chapter 24
"Okay, I see." Wei Ying nodded in response. She looked around on the table, finally chose a jade hairpin, pointed to it and said, "Boss, I want to guess this."

The busy boss unscrewed a bamboo slip in his hand, turned his head to look at Wei Ying, and said loudly: "Okay, brother, if you want to guess this, you only need to give me two dollars. If you guess right Now, the jade hairpin under this bamboo slip is yours, if you guess wrong, you will lose everything."

Wei Ying took out two round copper coins the size of quail eggs and handed them to the boss, and said, "Okay, give it to me, boss."

The man in brocade clothes turned his head to look at Wei Ying, and reminded him kindly: "Little brother, that jade hairpin looks like the most valuable thing on this table, and the riddle on it is not easy."

Wei Ying said indifferently: "It's okay, it's only two dollars anyway, so let's just guess."

The man in brocade clothes shook his head and smiled lightly. He handed the jade pendant to Wei Ying and said with a smile, "Little brother, this is for you."

Wei Ying first took the bamboo slips handed over by the boss, then turned to look at the man in brocade clothes, and asked doubtfully, "What are you giving me this jade pendant for?"

The man said warmly: "You were the one who guessed the crossword puzzle on the bamboo slips, so this jade pendant should belong to you."

"It's okay, big brother." Wei Ying waved her hand and said with a smile: "I guessed it for you, just accept this jade pendant, and treat it as a gift from me to you!"

"Then..." The man chuckled, and said warmly, "Thank you very much then. Little brother, you have already given me a meeting gift, and I haven't asked your name yet."

"My name is..." Wei Ying almost blurted out her name, but luckily she realized it quickly.She paused and said with a smile: "My name is Xiao Mu, how about you, big brother, what's your name?"

"I..." The man in brocade clothes also paused for a moment before replying, "My name is Qing Jin."

Wei Ying moved the bamboo slips to the light of the lantern to see the words engraved on them, and said casually, "Brother Qing, I am from Wei, how about you?"

"I'm from Yunguo." After Qing Jin answered Wei Ying's words, she looked at the bamboo slip in her hand and asked with a smile, "What kind of riddle is this, is it difficult?"

"It's really difficult." Wei Ying frowned and sighed softly. She moved the bamboo slips back from under the light, turned to look at Qing Jin and said, "Brother Qing, you are from Yunguo. Your Yunguo is so nice, prosperous and stable. And the folk customs are open, I really envy you Yun people."

Qing Jin shook her head lightly, and said softly: "How can there be real stability in this chaotic world? Even if it is stable on the surface, there is darkness hidden behind it. The real turmoil is actually in people's hearts, because there is always Insatiable desire."

Wei Ying looked at Qing Jin's face seriously with the light of the lamp, and saw a slight sadness in his half-down eyes.Then she looked away to look at his clothes and accessories, thinking quietly in her heart, this man is dressed in noble clothes, has an extraordinary temperament, and lives in a dark environment, maybe he is not a nobleman of Yunguo.

Qing Jin quickly put aside the sadness in his heart, looked down at Wei Ying, and asked with a smile: "What kind of riddle is on this bamboo slip, let's see if I can help you this time."

"That's good, Brother Qing, let me guess together." Wei Ying looked down at the bamboo slips, and read: "Three mountains come from three mountains, and the mountains hang upside down. Month after month, month after month is still connected. Left and right rows Shuangyu, criss-crossing the two rivers. There are six members of the family, and the two are not reunited."
