Daily Life of Jiang Liuniang

   Chapter 199 Gambling

  The concubines of Dazhou men can be divided into two types: good concubines and cheap concubines.

   Before being accepted as a concubine, she was a lowly woman, and after she became a concubine, she was a lowly concubine. The status of a lowly concubine is the same as that of a servant, and can be sold by the master's family and killed. Jiang Erye's original two concubines were originally housemaids, so they were all cheap concubines.

   Before becoming a concubine, she was a good woman, and after she became a concubine, she was a good concubine. A concubine does not sign a deed of betrayal, nor can her husband's family dispose of her at will, and her status can be regarded as half the master. Therefore, Mrs. Jiang said that if the daughter of this scholar is attracted by her son, she can be included in the mansion as a concubine.

   Jiang Pinglan nodded, "On the basis of the second brother's personality and appearance, as long as he is willing to nod, this girl will definitely be willing."

   That's natural, Mrs. Jiang sighed, "It's all because of Leyang that Feng'er can't marry again."

   Jiang Pinglan asked in a low voice, "How dare she pester her second brother?"

"Obviously, I don't dare, but secretly I don't have many bad ideas. Your second brother goes out to play, and you must meet her eight times out of ten!" If she wasn't a princess, Mrs. Jiang really wanted to come and scold her to death. !

  Jiang Er Ye was lucky today. He didn't meet Leyang's shameless wicked woman. After drinking and eating happily, he went to the largest casino in the West City to plan a few bets, and by the way, listened to the news.

   When the Jiang family's carriage arrived at the door of Lai Qian Pawnshop, the gatekeeper immediately greeted him with a cheerful expression, "Second Master, you won't be here for a while, please come in!"

   Jiang Erye glanced at the man and asked Jiang Hou'er lazily, "Why does this person look familiar?"

  Jiang Hou'er said immediately, "Isn't this the one who said in front of the second master last year that the casino in Kang'an City would no longer allow the second master to enter the door?"

   Now and then, the guy raised his hand and gave himself a mouth, and said with a hippie smile, "Second Master, we are not a casino but a lottery seller, you old inside please—"

  Because gambling is prohibited on Da Zhouming’s face, in order to hide people’s eyes and ears, most of the signboards hanging in casinos are **** shops, grocery stores or colorful silk shops, and they do different business during the day and night. This casino in front of the second master has the five-way color silk line as the sign.

   "Master doesn't like your boy, Monkey, change to another house!" Jiang Erye pulled down the curtain of the car, and Jiang Houer immediately ordered Jiang Bao to drive forward and change to the next casino.

   Caibohang's steward knew that Jiang Erye belonged to a weasel, and most of all held revenge. This man who mocked Jiang Erye when the Jiang family was in downfall was unable to invite Jiang Erye in today, so he turned his head and was removed by the steward to the backyard to do chores. There is no need to mention these, let alone Jiang Erye.

   Before Jiang Erye's carriage arrived at the next casino, Lai San, a gangster from the West Market, came up and got close to the car with Jiang Erye.

   Although Lai San is a skinny man, he still works in a tuneful manner, so that Erye Jiang will not feel bored by him. So, Jiang Erye lifted the curtain of the car and laughed and scolded, "If you have something to say, I don't have time to grind your lips with you."

Lai San came to Jiang Erye's window, his face full of stubborn flesh lying on his stomach, "Second Master, the casinos are all open in the spring, and the little brothers are also planning to make some money to buy wine. To get to the bottom of it, who is most likely to be the champion of martial arts in this year's spring palace test?"

   Jiang Erye shook his head and said truthfully, "Wuju people from all over the world haven't entered Beijing yet, this is really hard to say."

Lai San continued to ask with a smile, "Second Master is right, the little one has found a few capable fortune-tellers, and will meet them one by one after Wu Juren enters the capital. Most of them will be able to win the martial arts, and then we will bet big."

   Jiang Erye touched his chin, "That's a good idea."

Lai San's head could not wait to get into the car window, and he sincerely discussed with Jiang Erye, "Er Master, Pi Wu from Nanshi also opened a bet, betting whether you can win the Jinshi in the spring, and how many arrows can be hit in the outfield. The second master also knows that the skin five thieves are not things.

   Bet on him? This is the first time. Jiang Erye asked curiously, "What kind of gambling method?"

   "One loses six for all hits, five for one missing one..." After Lai Liu introduced, he looked at Jiang Erye eagerly, hoping that he could give a solid answer.

   Jiang Erye asked, "What are the odds of being a jinshi?"

   "One hundred to one hundred and three."

   Jiang Erye was puzzled, "So few?"

"You are a jinshi, it's not the louse on the head of a monk - it's an obvious thing! It was originally a hundred and one hundred and one hundred, but the fire in your house on New Year's Eve burned seven more points." Lai San said, "New Year's Eve Eve , if another house catches fire, you will have to be fined with money and whipped. Second Master, you set fire to the house, not only the governor of Jingzhao has nothing to do with you, but Long Live didn't blame you after he found out, so he took your face, and the Zhongjinshi didn't follow. Play the same!"

   seems to make some sense... Jiang Erye raised the corner of his mouth and floated.

   "So Second Master, how many arrows do you plan to hit in the field?" Lai San took the opportunity to ask.

   Jiang Erye shook his head, "Master Baogong from the Long Live Reward is not yet used, so I can't say how many I can get, so I can only do my best."

   Isn't that a hundred zhang piercing Yang Gong, can't you hit all the shots? When Lai San was a little disappointed, he heard Jiang Erye say again, "Let's not talk about this gambling game, I have something for you to do, and I will give you twenty taels of silver after the thing is done."

  Lai San immediately smiled, "It's a small honor to be able to do things for you, you can do whatever you want."

   Jiang Erye hooked his fingers, "From New Year's Eve until now, go and find out if the Meng family has dragged out the dead body, and if it is dragged out, find out where it is buried."

"Don't worry, sir, not to mention that his family has dragged out dead people in the past three days. It's just a dead dog. I'll dig out the little ones for you!" A few years ago, when Meng San was fighting for land in the West City, Lai San and two were beaten to death. Brother, Lai San hated the Meng family for a long time. As soon as Jiang Erye opened his mouth, he immediately accepted the job. He wished that the Jiang family would overthrow the Meng family, so that he could have a chance to avenge his brother.

Jiang Erye went to the casino to play in the middle of the night, and naturally woke up late in the morning. Jiang Erye first went to the north courtyard to greet his mother, and then had breakfast amid her nagging voice, and said, "Zhu Jiu is no longer in Meng's house. , Er is looking for someone to find his corpse. If he can't find it, he is hiding it. Mother sent a trustworthy woman to keep Li Qiao and Taoye well, and it will come in handy sooner or later."

Mrs. Jiang agreed, and discussed with her son, "On the fourth day of the first day, you have to work hard and send your sister back to Le County. The fur market over there is full of good things. You can pick up some good leathers and come back, your mother will be useful. ."

  The market didn't open until after the fifth day of the first year. He went to the fourth day of the first year and had to stay overnight in Lexian County. Jiang Erye was not happy.

   "There is something in her house and she needs to go back one day earlier."

   "Then let my sister go to the market to choose the leather, and then send someone to deliver it." Jiang Erye discussed with his mother.

   Mrs. Jiang stared, "Why, you have become a martial artist, and your mother can't use you?"

   "If you can make a move, even if your son becomes a first-rank general, if you ask him to go east, he will not dare to go west." Jiang Erye replied with a smile.

   After returning to the study room in the west courtyard, Jiang Erye told his son with a stern face, "Go out with father on the fourth day of the first day."

   "What are you going to do? Is your sister going too?" Jiang Ling asked, Jiang Muyan and Jiang Liu also raised their heads.

   Jiang Erye shook his head, "If you don't go, you will go to Lexian with your father to see your aunt, stay there overnight, and come back on the fifth day of the new year."

   "I still need to read." Jiang Ling immediately refused.

   Jiang Erye stared, "If you don't go, you have to go!"

   Jiang Ling pursed his lips and responded unhappily.
