355 bets

Zhao Ya was not in a hurry at all, she could have finished it a long time ago, but she didn't move, she was calculating.

Seeing that four people had already completed the embroidery and handed in the embroidery, when they felt that it was almost the same, they stood up and handed in the embroidery.

This is the strategy Zhao Zhitong taught her, the first two games, especially the first one, don't stand out.

It's best to be stuck in the middle, neither up nor down. This position is the most inconspicuous and will not attract attention.

Waiting until the last one to make a big splash will be enough to deter people.

Sure enough, after the end of the first competition, people's discussions were almost entirely on the No. 1 Miss Fei Jia.

The last embroidered lady who entered the top ten also got some attention.

There are only a few embroiderers in the middle, and few people pay attention.

In the first competition, the basic skills were tested, and the speed of embroidery was tested. Therefore, there was no dispute about the result, and the top ten came out.

With a burst of gongs and drums, the first game ended like this.

The Xiu Niang who did not enter the next game felt sad and cried, but they also had to leave the field one after another.

After Fei's family announced tomorrow's game time, Zhao Ya walked off the stage.

Everyone gathered around to congratulate Zhao Ya for entering the top ten.

Zhao Ya was embarrassed by the praise, and blushed and said that she was not that good.

Because the second competition is tomorrow, people around have left one after another. Mrs. Fei's family entertained the wives who were invited to be judges, and entered the mansion for a banquet.

Mrs. Li politely declined, and after politely nodding goodbye to all the ladies, she led the servants outside.

At this time, Zhao Zhitong, who was about to leave, stopped when he saw Mrs. Li coming out: "Wait a minute, Mrs. Li is coming out, let's say hello before leaving."

While speaking, Mrs. Li had already come in front of them.

"Ma'am." Zhao Zhitong stepped forward and greeted with a smile.

Mrs. Li also took Zhao Zhitong's hand, and said happily that the massage techniques Zhao Zhitong gave her were really useful. She pressed her husband's legs for a few days, and her husband's legs didn't hurt so much.

The two chatted for a while about Li Yu's leg problem, and Mrs. Li talked about Zhao Ya's embroidery.

"I saw your embroidery. Although I am not as skilled as my embroiderer, I can feel the strength in your embroidery. Don't be discouraged."

Mrs. Li is comforting Zhao Ya that she only got a fifth place today.

Zhao Ya nodded in gratitude.

After several people chatted for a few more words, Mrs. Li said goodbye to Zhao Zhitong and the others and left.

The first match ended in the morning, and by noon, news of the match had already spread in Suzhou City.

This matter is being discussed in the streets and alleys, and even some people have begun to bet.

Zhao Zhitong and the others who were eating in the restaurant happened to encounter this scene.

Hearing the commotion, Zhao Zhitong and the others couldn't help but look over.

At this time, Xiao Er happened to come over to serve food, and Zhao Yue asked, "What are they doing over there, so lively?"

Xiao Er put the dishes on the table and said with a smile: "Well, it's the young masters of the Fei family and the young masters of the Qian family who set up a bet for this embroidery competition. Everyone, they are all joining in the fun."

"Oh, that's it." Zhao Yue nodded, quite curious.

That Xiao Er seemed to be a talkative person, and when he left, he said: "Every year in the embroidery competition, someone will place a bet.

Many people in Suzhou City have placed bets, not to win money, but to join in the fun, you can also go and have a look. "

After Xiao Er left, Zhao Zhitong was still looking over there curiously.

Zhao Yue and the others are obviously very interested in this.

Although they don't like to gamble, they are still very curious about Zhao Ya's relationship.

At this time, Zhao Zhitong suggested with a smile: "Why don't we go and have a look?"

Several people stood up in an instant, excitedly said: "Let's go, what are you waiting for?"

Just go as soon as you say, a few people stopped eating, and got up one after another to join in the fun.

When they walked over, those people were discussing enthusiastically.

I saw the promotion list on the table, with the odds written on the side.

Zhao Zhitong had never seen gambling before, so he was very curious, and went to find Zhao Ya's name.

The name was taken according to the ranking in this competition, and Zhao Ya's was fifth.

"Uncle, how does this work?"

Zhao Zhitong asked curiously.

Seeing the little girl in front of him, the uncle knew that the other party didn't understand this, so he explained it to Zhao Zhitong.

"This time, it's the top five. Which five embroidered women do you like? If you think they can make it into the top five, you can beat them. If you make the right bet after the game is over, you can win according to the odds."

After the introduction, the uncle looked at Zhao Zhitong with a smile: "Girl, do you want to do it?"

Zhao Zhitong was a little interested, and looked back at Qiao Muchen: "Would you like to play?"

Qiao Muchen wasn't interested in this at first, but seeing that Zhao Zhitong wanted to play, he nodded, "Then let's play."

Zhao Zhitong happily turned around and asked Uncle Xiang again: "How should I bet?"

The uncle smiled and said, "You can choose five people yourself, or you can randomly select five people."

Zhao Zhitong listened and nodded, looking at the name with his eyes, realizing that the above odds are different, so he was a little puzzled: "What does the odds mean?"

At this time, Qiao Muchen explained from the side: "Odds are the probability of paying out, the higher the odds, the lower the chance of winning, and vice versa.

Naturally, the odds are higher, that is, once the bet is correct, the more money you win. "

Zhao Zhitong suddenly realized: "Oh, I understand, it's high risk and high return!"

Then he took out five taels of silver from his pocket, and chose five people very casually.

Of course there was Zhao Ya, and the remaining four had a third, a fourth, an eighth, and a tenth.

Looking at the name Zhao Zhitong bought, someone laughed.

"Girl, why don't you buy Ms. Fei's family? She will definitely be in the top five. If you hurt me, don't look at the high payouts in the future, but their chances of being in the top five are also small. Basically, they will lose money."

"Yes, yes, the top five, the highest bet!"

...

According to the reputation, in the past, most of them were betting on the top five. Naturally, some people wanted to bet on the bottom five.

As for the number one Fei Yi, almost everyone will bet on her.

Zhao Zhitong looked away, then smiled: "I'm just playing around."

Qiao Muchen also put five taels of silver on the table: "Yes, we just wanted to have fun. Just now, the girl bet on five people, and I will also bet on one."

The people around looked at these young men and women. Although they were not well dressed, they didn't look like ordinary people, so they didn't say anything.

A rich young lady, of course, will not do it for money, she must join in the fun.

After taking over the house, Zhao Yue and the others also went up to buy a lot.

Even Zhao Ya was pushed to buy it, and said afterwards that it was strange to bet on herself.

Everyone burst into laughter.

After buying, they went back to the dining table. After eating, everyone went home talking and laughing.

Qiao Muchen's brother Zhao Yue went directly to the yamen to work, while Zhao Zhitong and the others went back to their residence to rest.

——

In a blink of an eye, the game on the second day came as scheduled.
