Hearing Xuan Bao say he saw Mrs. Zhao, Xiu Shui subconsciously turned his head and looked over. When he saw the word "Gambling House", his face darkened instantly.
However, it is not surprising to think that Zhao is not at home except for meals every day, either staying in this gambling house or hanging out in that gambling house. Even if he is not doing well, he will watch a group of men gambling in the village.
I really feel aggrieved that my third brother was tricked into marrying such a wife.
If Zhao had a slightly better character, his third brother wouldn't look down on her, and the couple wouldn't sleep in separate rooms all the time.
Ruo Hang: "That's a gambling house. San Auntie went to the gambling house again!"
Ruoxuan poked her head curiously: "It seems to be very fun inside."
Of all the shops in the city, this shop has the most people, and the people inside are very excited.
Ruoshui was startled, secretly scolded Zhao for being a bad boy, and quickly took the opportunity to educate him:
"Gambling houses are not a good place. A habit of gambling will cause people to lose their fortune and their families. You guys must remember not to get involved in gambling, you know?"
Xiaozhou was also startled by his sister's curiosity, and felt that he needed to teach his younger brothers and sisters. After all, there was such a third uncle by his side, so as not to imitate others: "I have seen the second-rate son in the next village become a gambler. Xing, who was unconvinced when he lost and owed money to the gambling house, had one of his fingers chopped off. With just one click, he only had four fingers left.
The weak boat clicked in conjunction with the movements, startling several children.
Ruoshui: "It's not a big deal. Some people have lost all their family property, owe money to gambling houses, and have their legs broken. The whole family has to leave their hometown! So when you grow up, remember not to gamble!"
Several children nodded hurriedly.
Xiaobo: "I heard from Gouzi that San Auntie used to steal money from the family to gamble, and her father chased her with a knife and wanted to hack her to death!"
"Sister-in-law, can you still steal money?" Xiang Xuan thought of Zhao's appearance and how she had recently lost money.
"Often! She is often chased and beaten by her father for stealing money! But his father is also a gambler, and everyone in their family likes to gamble."
"Then our family's money must be put away better." Ruoxuan said.
"Of course, grandma has warned everyone a long time ago."
…
In the gambling house, Mrs. Zhao also saw Ruoshui and the others, and she quickly hid.
After Ruoshui pushed the cart away, she walked out of the casino to see what was on the cart. Just now she glanced at the cart full of things!
Mrs. Zhao looked at the colorful brocade boxes on the cart from a distance, and the entire cart was stunned.
What did Ruoshui sell in the city today to earn so much money?
Those brocade boxes look very expensive at first glance, and I don’t know what’s inside!
Ms. Zhao felt as if she had been scratched by a cat. She wanted to go back to Ruohe's house to see her, but she was afraid that Ruohe would catch her and see the doctor.
Just when she was hesitating whether to rush home, a man shouted loudly in the gambling shop: "Fat woman, you have placed your bet, can you still not place it?"
Mrs. Zhao quickly replied: "Go! Why not? I'm just lucky!"
This morning she helped her father sell pork and secretly made a few dozen pennies. After selling the pork, she ran to the gambling house and made nearly a hundred pennies after playing a few games.
It’s booming!
Mrs. Zhao immediately ran back to the gambling house, forgetting all the brocade boxes.
You can secretly go back and look at those things in the brocade box after winning the money!
She just wanted to win enough 1,000 fen to go back, so she bet more than 100 fen in her hand.
As a result, this game started small and we lost everything!
Mrs. Zhao felt unlucky: "I must have met that unlucky person from a weak family! I even lost!"
She cursed and walked out.
At this time, a man walked up to her and said, "Fat woman, you're lucky. How many taels of silver can you borrow to make a comeback?"
Zhao was about to refuse, but she also knew that money from gambling houses could not be borrowed casually, and she had no money to pay back.
Usually she loses everything and leaves.
The other party has been paying attention to Mr. Zhao for a long time. He is really addicted to gambling and is hopeless. He hangs around various casinos every day and continues to persuade: "Look, that person borrowed five taels from me and now he has won ten taels." . I will lend you five taels of silver and I will not charge you any interest for five days. Within five days, as long as you win, you only need to pay me back five taels."
No interest for five days? Mrs. Zhao was moved!
She thought of the brocade box that Ruoshui had brought in the car just now, and didn't Ruochuan earn five taels of silver that day?
Even if she loses, she won't have no money to pay back within five days.
When the man saw her move, he immediately persuaded her again, and Ms. Zhao couldn't help but take the other party's five taels of silver, put a pledge on the IOU, and turned around again to join a certain table!
"Place your bets, place your bets! Everyone, hurry up, buy and leave..."
*
Ruoshui bought two candy figures for each of the children, and Ruoxuan finally got to eat the candy figures with rabbit and goat designs that she had longed for.
Ruoxuan gnawed off the rabbit's mouth with the first bite, and then went to gnaw the goat's mouth.
The small mouth chews vigorously, just like rabbits and goats eating grass.
The little one looks fierce!
Brothers: "..."
Why does Xuan Bao look so fierce every time he eats rabbits and goats?
Could it be that the rabbit and goat had offended her in her previous life?
Seeing her brothers looking at her, Xuan Bao couldn't help but ask, "Why doesn't brother eat?"
After saying that, Xuan Bao took a bite of the candy rabbit's head.
"Eat, eat now!" Several people lowered their heads and studied how to eat.
None of the boys liked soft animals like rabbits or goats, so they all picked majestic animals such as horses, tigers, and eagles. The only thing they had in common was that they all picked one with a horse pattern.
The brothers were reluctant to bite it like Xuan Bao, so they just stuck out their tongues and licked it carefully and were satisfied.
After buying the candy figures, Ruoshui took the children to eat tofu pudding, and then headed back to the village.
Less than half an hour later, the group finally got off the official road and returned to the village.
Wenbang immediately said: "Dad, please stop, we will take my sister up the mountain to pick wild fruits!"
Zuo Hang and Qiu Bo also nodded: "Fourth Uncle, we are not going home. We will go directly to the mountains to pick wild fruits."
weak boat said: "fourth uncle, don't worry, I will take good care of my brother and sister."
There are mountains near the village, and children from every household in the village will go to the foot of the mountains to play.
Children in the mountains grew up in the mountains and fields, and they were sensible. There was nothing to worry about. Wu Shui stopped the cart and warned: "Don't run into the mountains! Take good care of Xuan Bao." "
"Got it!" Several children responded and jumped off the cart, like chickens just out of the cage, running away in an instant!
"Xuan Bao, let's go pick up the bastard first." Qianbang said.
The brothers discovered that since the flood last year, bastard eggs could often be picked up in the sand by the lake. Sometimes there could be twenty or thirty eggs in a nest. None of the children in the village noticed, and only the brothers knew about it.
Of course, this is also because the adults in the village rarely let their children go to the lakeside to play and play once in a while, so the people in the village did not notice it.
"Okay." Several children hurriedly ran to the big lake in the distance.
Still weak Zhou was older and had a steady temper, so he picked up the three empty baskets and followed.
The side of the big lake was farther away, and they had to pass through a grassy wetland. When Ruoxuan ran through the wetland behind her brothers, she suddenly stopped.
