bastard little man

"Liu Rubao"

An Qiyu brought Qiu Shizhen and Xiao Yezi to a site in Liujia Village. It was dark inside, densely packed with people, including people from Liujia Village and several surrounding villages.

"Wen Tian, ​​isn't that Brother Yu?" Those who have something good to do joke with Wen Tian.

Wen Tian looked over there, but it wasn't true, and ran over immediately.

"Ancestor, what are you doing here?" Liu Wentian was speaking when he saw Qiu Shizhen behind Brother Yu, "Young Master Qiu, you are here too, please come in quickly, please come in"

Changing his face so quickly, Brother Yu looked at this cousin and curled his lips.

"Master Qiu" Liu Rubao is the first time he has seen this young master of the Qiu family. He looks really good, but he is a little less rough compared to strong farmers like them. Tsk tsk, how can such a man afford a family? Liu Rubao thought with contempt in her heart.

"Liu Rubao, why is your place so congested?" Brother Yu was a little uncomfortable, there were too many people, and they were all men.

"It's New Year's Eve, happy celebration." Liu Rubao had long been used to this little brother's 'tough' personality, and was not surprised that An Qiyu came to the gambling house.

Under the leadership of Liu Wentian, Qiu Shizhen was already watching others bet there, and didn't notice An Qiyu's discomfort at all.

"Move this way a little bit" A man protected An Qiyu and made a space for him to come out.

An Qiyu finally had a place to stay, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you"

"It's okay, there are a lot of men here, you'd better move to another place as a little brother." The man's voice was very thick, and he knew he was capable of work.

An Qiyu looked up at him, with a straight and resolute face.

"You're new here. I've been here countless times in this small gambling house. Why can't I come?" An Qiyu was a little unhappy. In terms of physical strength, he might not be able to beat these people, but he was better than others. , he will not lose to these arrogant men.

It's a pity that the gambling shop in Liujia Village has always only allowed him to enter and not let him play, because he is a little brother, and the group of guys feel embarrassed to take money from him if they win, and feel ashamed if they lose, so An Qiyu did it at the beginning. Went to the casino in the town to gamble.

The man smiled after hearing An Qiyu's words, "I'm indeed new here."

Looking at An Qiyu's confused face, the man explained, "I passed by here on the run, and your grandma rescued me."

"It's you." An Qiyu opened his eyes wide, and immediately started talking happily with him.

Over there, with Liu Wentian's help, Qiu Shizhen gradually adapted to the way of gambling here, and forgot about An Qiyu and Xiao Yezi who came with him.

Xiao Yezi saw that her young husband was about to be cheated away by someone, but her young master was still there, big and small.

Sighing, Xiao Ye Zi felt that she should help the young master guard the facade of her house, so she walked over, "Who are you, do you know that this is my young husband, who has eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?"

In fact, if you listen carefully, you can hear the trembling in Xiao Yezi's tone, because the man in front of him is so tall that Xiao Yezi's legs are shaking when he speaks.

Tian Shouhua ignored him, and looked over with a glance, Xiao Yezi immediately started planning to run away.

"Let you talk nonsense!" An Qiyu slapped her across the face. "This is my grandma..." An Qiyu paused, not knowing what to call her.

"My name is Tian Shouhua"

"Yeah, yes, Tian Shouhua, I'm very close to my grandma's family." An Qiyu warned Xiao Yezi, "Don't look down on people all day long."

What about Tian Shouhua, the name is too ugly, Xiao Yezi thought silently.

"open!"

There was a burst of cheers.

An Qiyu immediately ran over interested, "How about it, did you win?"

Tian Shouhua's face changed when he saw their intimacy.

Heh, Xiao Yezi knew that the toad wanted to eat swan meat just by looking at him.

"We won a total of ten taels of silver!" Qiu Shizhen laughed loudly.

For people in other villages, ten taels is a lot, but for Liu Rubao and the son-in-law of the landowner of Sunjia Village, ten taels is really nothing.

These few rich people got on the bar, and several parties began to 'fight' non-stop here. Slowly, the money on the table was already piled up very high, and the amount was so large that everyone in the room felt surprised. up.

"How much is it already?"

"There are already 685 taels on the table"

"More than 600 taels?" The hearts of those who heard it would stop. This is money they will never earn in their entire lives.

"I want 60 taels of it," Liu Rubao said after some consideration.

This is a way of playing in their village. The three parties gamble together. If none of them win, then the money will be placed on the table, and then the next time the three of them will throw money up again. If no one wins, the money will be lost. It has been placed on the table for the three of them to place bets again and again, and so on.

Gradually, there were hundreds of taels of silver on the table.Among them, Qiu Shizhen's capital was only a dozen taels that he brought and won, more than 200 taels were exported from Liu Rubao's pocket, and the rest was lost by the son-in-law of the landlord of Sunjia Village.

And the door-to-door son-in-law is also the most nervous. He is just a door-to-door son-in-law, and his wife gave birth to two daughters. His father-in-law is already very dissatisfied with the two of them. If he loses another few hundred taels today, the father-in-law will definitely kick him out.

The hundreds of taels of silver on the stage can only be a few taels or dozens of taels at a time. Liu Rubao bid 60 taels, but the door-to-door son-in-law and Qiu Shizhen dared not bid. Finally, Liu Rubao had smaller points than both of them, which was a loss. Well, the 60 taels are not coming, so I have to add 60 taels to the table, so now the bet on the table has reached 745 taels.

Everyone exclaimed, and many excited people even sneaked out to tell people in and out of the village that they had gone.

"More than 700 taels?"

When people from several surrounding villages heard the news, they rushed over to the gambling house. An Datong was so frightened that he fell to the ground several times.

"Damn you, why don't you stop me?" Mrs. Ye also came, but unfortunately she couldn't squeeze in, so she could only curse at Wen Tian who was squeezed out.

"Uncle, I can't stop it either." Liu Wentian was very excited. Anyway, Qiu Shizhen was also a relative, and he definitely hoped that the relative would win in his heart, but he didn't know what the result would be. Now that there are so many people, he couldn't get in.

At Sun Baizhen's house, An Qi said that the people on the road were going to Liujia Village as they walked, and felt a little anxious, "Then Qiu Shizhen won't lose, right?"

After all, she is Brother Yu's husband, and she doesn't want Qiu Shijie to lose, it's almost a thousand taels of silver, this is not a small amount, even the son of a landlord's family will feel sorry for several days.

"Why do you care about other people's men!" Sun Baizhen suddenly dropped the book in the next room, causing An Qiyu's hand to tremble in fright, and the basin for drying clothes fell to the ground.

-

"I want 80 taels." Qiu Shizhen whispered to An Qiyu, "If I lose this game, you can go back with Xiao Yezi to get the money."

At this time, it is not easy to renege on losing, even if you are scolded by your father, you have to go back to the Qiu family to ask for silver taels.

An Qiyu closed his eyes tightly and dared not look at the cards.

"I flipped over"

"I flipped too"

Liu Rubao didn't want either of them. After turning over the cards, he looked at Qiu Shizhen. Qiu Shizhen breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's polite." He turned over his own cards.

"Boom!" The whole hall burst into applause and shouts.

"How is it?" The anxious elders of the three families gathered outside to inquire about the news.

"Master Qiu won 80 taels." Someone said beamingly. They didn't know why they were so happy. After all, it had nothing to do with them.

Now there are 665 taels left on the scene, and the son-in-law who came to the door kept a close eye on the money on it, it had to be his.

"I want 200 taels." Liu Rubao said nervously with a long sigh of relief.

"I don't want it," Qiu Shizhen replied after deliberating for a long time.

The son-in-law who came to visit over there has been silent for a long time, and his heart is already stagnant. This card is not good, so he can't take it. Now he can only silently hope that Liu Rubao won't win.

"I don't want either"

"It's a flop!" The crowd shouted around.

"Win, win!" The people inside yelled loudly, but the people on the outer floors and the people around the house couldn't see it.Impatient "Whoever wins wins"

"Liu Rubao won"

"Win 200 taels"

"There are 465 taels left"

The people inside kept passing on the news, and the people outside were very upset when they heard it.

"I want it all" Another scene, Liu Rubao said nervously as he thumped his forehead with his hands.

The son-in-law is already trembling with his feet, and this one can't ask "no...don't"

Qiu Shizhen held the card tightly so that no one else could see it, making An Qiyu nervously clutching Qiu Shizhen's sleeve with both hands, not daring to speak.

"I want it all"

After hearing this, everyone excitedly prepared to watch the show, but Qiu Shizhen made another explosive speech.

"I want all of the above, and I want Liu Rubao's."

As soon as Qiu Shizhen said this, the audience fell silent, and An Datong and the others who were standing outside heard it too.

"what does this mean"

"I didn't understand either"

"Everything I want"

There was a lot of discussion among the people, and some well-meaning people helped them explain that "Liu Rubao asked for 465 taels from the field, and Qiu Shizhen asked for 465 taels of silver from the field and Liu Rubao's."

"What do you mean?" They still didn't understand.

"If Liu Rubao wins, he will get the 465 taels on the field, and Qiu Shizhen will pay an extra 930 taels and put it on the table to let the three of them continue to gamble for the next game"

"If Qiu Shizhen wins, then he can take away the 465 taels on the table and the extra 465 taels from Liu Rubao, and win a total of 930 taels, and this round will be completely over and there will be no next round."

"If both of them lose, the chips on the table will increase to 1860 taels"

Hearing the 1860 taels of silver, the whole crowd erupted.

"So now that Liu Rubao wins or both of them lose, the son-in-law of Landlord Sun's family can breathe a sigh of relief."

"No, look at that fat man, he is constantly wiping the sweat off his forehead."

"It's better to let him lose to death. A door-to-door son-in-law relies on his grandson to do evil all day long, so lose him to death."

"Flip!"

"Flip!"

...

The shouts on the field nearly knocked the roof over, the three of them flopped cards at the same time, An Qiyu supported Qiu Shizhen and almost passed out.

"Coax!" Those who slapped the table slapped the table, and those who threw the chair threw the chair. A group of spectators seemed to bet more smoothly than themselves.

The author has something to say:

Warm reminder, gambling is not a good thing, everyone should not learn it.In the novel, the protagonist is a mess in the early stage, but he will get better later.

I hope everyone will study hard and make progress every day.
