Chapter 89 Battle on the Terrace (on the shelf)(1/2)
Because of the loss of intentions and gambling, the court punished the gambling process very much. The serious ones were executed, and the mild ones were collected. However, there were exceptions: during major festivals, the court allowed the market to set up gambling games, which was called "small gambling to enjoy the mood".
Gambling projects that are allowed to be opened during special periods include cockfighting, horse racing, lackeys and valets. During the New Year holidays at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, market vendors can set up a venue to start gambling and attract customers as long as they report to the yamen in advance.
Fighting cocks and horses is the favorite play of plays in Kang'an City. As a famous play of plays in Kang'an City, Jiang Erye also enjoys it.
After rushing to the cockfighting table, Mr. Jiang immediately handed over his little daughter to the wet nurse, "Lu'er goes to play first, Dad will make money for you to buy delicious and fun!"
Before Jiang could respond, Mr. Jiang had already rolled up his sleeves and pulled Jiang Bao into the crowd and bet. Jiang Houer, who was abandoned by Mr. Jiang, jumped onto the stage and looked, "Huh! General Black is the one who is in this battle, General Black will win!"
The servant in Jinyi from the family next to him stretched his neck and pushed him over, "Just make a fool! Can General Hei be able to pinch Judgment Bai?"
Jiang Houer roared back with her hips, "Judge Bai was pinched by the purple flower crown last time, don't you know? Purple flower crown is a defeated general of General Black!"
"When did that happen? It's time and time! Judge Bai will win this game, don't believe it, wait!"
"Wait, wait!"
Seeing that the chickens had not started fighting, Jiang Houer started pinching with the person first. It was really inappropriate. Jiang Muyan didn't want to stay here anymore and pulled her sister to discuss, "Let's go there to play, okay?"
Jiang Liu was also not interested in chicken fights, "Brother, then?"
Jiang Ling agreed to whatever the sister said, and the three little ones walked in front with their hands. Ya Yin, Jiang Cai, the wet nurse, Shu Xia and Shu Qiu immediately followed.
Now that I left, I won’t look at it anymore? Jiang Houer stamped her feet and plunged into the crowd to find his second master.
The three little ones arrived at Guanpu’s stall and stopped moving.
"Guanpu" is the most popular game for the people of Dazhou. According to the gameplay set by merchants, Guanpu can be a type of lottery draw, dart, and throwing copper coins. The rules are simple and suitable for both young and old.
Daddy wins every bet, and Jiang Liu feels that her luck is not much worse. So she found a stall that does not require speed or strength, spent two cents to change a lottery opportunity, and drew one with confidence. Seeing the seven regular small words "Flowers bloom and wealth will prosper" written on it, Jiang Liu was very satisfied and handed it to the stall owner.
"Good sign!" The stall owner smiled and handed Jiang a small silk flower, "The little girl is so lucky, she will always smile this year."
...
This silk flower is the smallest and most ugly on the stall! Jiang Liu didn't believe in evil, so he asked the wet nurse to hand the stall owner eight cents, and he took it four times in a row.
The result was... the five smallest and most simple silk flowers on the spread were all in her hands...
Jiang Liu felt the malice of this world towards her!
Jiang Muyan was lucky and pulled a wooden comb. When the stall owner handed it over, he smiled and said, "This girl is beautiful and beautiful. She will definitely be blessed with a peach wood comb to comb her hair. She will find a good young man as soon as possible."
Jiang Muyan blushed, and the wet nurse Zhao cursed, "Bah! My girl is only ten years old, what are you talking about!"
Seeing that his sister was unhappy with a bitter face, Jiang Ling pulled her to the stall next to him, "Which sister likes? Brother will call you."
Next to the stall was a turntable full of goods with the name of the goods, and the darts were two copper coins at a time. The name of the goods were obtained. Jiang Liu stuffed all the flowers to Shuqiu and pointed at the bronze jade Huazun in the middle of the stall, "That!"
Just now when she was drawing lots, someone here called Yu Hua Zun, saying that this Zun was worth dozens of taels of silver.
"Okay!" Jiang Ling agreed with confidence, but unexpectedly, he threw the dart twice, only a little bit away.
"Oh, it's such a pity, this young master is just a little bit!" The stall owner shook his head with regret and handed over an ugly little flower.
God bullies people, so I won’t play anymore! Jiang Liu wants to pull his brother away, but his brother is stubborn and reaches in front of Jiang Cai, "Money!"
Jiang Cai, who was knowledgeable, quickly whispered, "Young Master, there must be magnets hidden in this turntable, you can't hit it."
The profiteer! Jiang Liu held his brother's hand, "Brother, go!"
"Do you still play? If you don't play, move quickly. Don't get Yu Huazun, who can get twenty taels of silver for free!" The short and strong man next to him saw that Jiang Ling was not moving, stepped forward and squeezed him away to take a good position.
Jiang Ling was squeezed and staggered. If Jiang Cai hadn't helped him, he would have fallen down with his sister.
Jiang Ling was angry. When he got up, he ran into the man's back, and his knee was pressed against his knee. I'll let you hit him!
"Ah!" The man lost his balance and rushed forward a few steps, knocking down the turntable.
"Crash!"
The turntable was knocked down and cracked, revealing the fixed magnet in the mezzanine. The stall owner really exploded! Seeing the man who fell to the ground covering the magnet with his sleeves, Jiang Liu realized that this man was the stall owner's support. No wonder he shouted so loudly.
Jiang Ling didn't allow him to cover it up and shouted loudly, "Hey! How could there be magnets in the turntable? What's the point of doing?"
Everyone surrounded and pulled away the big man. Sure enough, they found something tricky in the turntable and said angrily, "Okay! I said why didn't there be anyone who beat Zhongyu Huazun in half a day! So that's the case!"
The stall owner was anxious, "Heroes, heroes, we have something to say..."
"It's okay!" Everyone pushed the stall owner and shouted loudly, "Go and invite the official, there's a stall that's cheating!"
He was arrested for cheating during a play. At the very least, he was responsible for confiscating his property, and at the worst, he was sent to the army to serve hard labor. The stall owner was not allowed to take care of the stall and wanted to run away with few people. Everyone pressed him on the ground with all his hands, and some people were greedy for small gains and held the small items on the stall and stuffed them into their arms and ran away.
After the official who managed the market came to find out the situation, he tied up the stall owner and confiscated the goods and took them back to the government office.
Jiang Ling stepped forward and said weak and pitiful, "Can Junye return my four cents to me? That's the money my father asked me to buy candy for my sister."
Seeing that Guancha came over, Jiang Liu quickly bent his eyes and pulled the corners of his mouth, trying to pull out his father's most popular emoticon.
Seeing that the little girl was so cute, the officers and soldiers took out four copper coins from the money box and handed them over, "Don't touch these things from every child!"
"June, and the villain..."
"The villain also beat ten darts..."
As everyone was pushing forward, Jiang Ling took her sister out and told her very seriously, "If he doesn't cheat, I will definitely be able to beat Zhongyu Huazun."
"Yeah!" Jiang Liu nodded vigorously, "Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-Brother-B
That was natural. Jiang Ling smiled with her neat little white teeth, "What else do you want in my sister?"
Jiang Liu was already satisfied and turned around and asked his sister, "Sister-what do you want?"
Jiang Muyan had enough fun, "Let's go to the musical instrument store in front?"
"Okay." I had heard that there were various instruments in the musical instrument store in Dongshi, and Jiang Liu wanted to open his eyes. But they didn't walk far away and were blocked by someone.
The three little ones looked up and saw the short and strong man who had just knocked down the turntable. He was holding his arms with both hands and staring at them.
Jiang Cai and Ya Yin immediately stepped forward to block the little masters. Ya Yin, who was a little taller than the man, also looked down at him with his arms in his arms, "What do you want to do?"
The man ignored Ya Yin and raised his chin at Jiang Ling, "You kid not only have a dark face, but also have dark hands! Do you dare to go up and gesture with the master?"
Jiang Liu turned his head and saw a mountain shed not far away, with brocade and flag tent on it. There was a half-people-high ring beside the mountain shed. The two were fighting on the stage.
This guy who is a little taller than his brother is actually going to compete with his brother? Is shameless! Jiang Liu held his brother's hand tightly and refused to let him go.
The wet nurse cursed, "Bah! Don't want to bully my young master, you Lai Han!"
The man ignored anyone and stared at Jiang Ling and asked, "Boy, if you don't dare, just say it, I won't laugh at you!"
"Who said I didn't dare?" Jiang Ling asked Jiang Cai and Ya to retreat and responded loudly, "I'll say it first, I'll be fine if I go to the stage and live or die."
"Oh! I dare to steal my words! As a result, you guys are so kind! If you don't beat you to death today, I'm merciful!" The man turned his neck and was very arrogant.
"Of course, my son is a good person." Mr. Jiang Er, who left his children to fight cocks, finally followed. He put his hand on his son's shoulder and asked lazily, "Lai Liu, who are you going to kill, tell me again?"
Lai Liu, who was still showing off his might just now, saw Mr. Jiang, and immediately smiled with yellow teeth, "Mr. Jiang! We will disappear one day! What gust of wind blows you over? Is this the young master in your mansion? It's really a flood that rushes the Dragon King Temple..."
Looking at the two men in front of them, Lai Liu stopped and wanted to praise him but couldn't know where to start.
"Genggugugugugugu, who is in the same temple with you! Don't get close to my master here!" Jiang Houer opened her mouth and cursed.
Lai Liu is just a gangster in Dongshi. How dare he provoke a big celebrity in Long Live's eyes? He repeatedly apologized, "The villain has no eyes and does not recognize the young master in the mansion. The second master should not be as good as the young master."
Before Mr. Jiang could say anything, Jiang Ling spoke, "Father, I want to compete with him on stage."
"Young Master, please spare me, how dare I fight you?" Lai Liu frowned. He just looked at the black boy's face and thought he was a slut who came into Kang'an City from some corner to see the world. Unexpectedly, it was Jiang Er's son.
Although he had heard that Jiang Er had taken a son back to the city, he could not have thought that Jiang Er's son was a little black-faced one!
"Brother." Jiang Liu grabbed her brother's hand and refused to let go. No matter how powerful his brother was, he could not compare to Lai Liu.
Jiang Houer also whispered, "Lai Liu relies on his brute strength, and he rarely loses when he loses. The young master will suffer a loss when he goes up."
Jiang Ling refused to retreat, "He gave me a letter of war, but the cowards who dared not fight were cowards."
"Didn't he look at you and want to bully you?" Jiang Houer glared at Lai Liuyi.
Lai Liu hurriedly said, "I took back what I said just now, and the young master just pretended that I was just a little bitch. Will it be better?"
"Monkey, shut up." Jiang Bao held Jiang Houer who was still talking. There are rules for the border town. Since Lai Liu gave a letter of war, the young master had to face the battle regardless of winning or losing. He would not be embarrassed if he lost, and he would be embarrassed if he was too cowardly to face the battle.
Mr. Jiang lowered his head and asked, "I really want to go on stage?"
"He has finished the war, and he must fight." Jiang Ling replied.
Mr. Jiang asked again, "Do you cry if you fall hurt?"
"Never!" Jiang Ling signaled his sister to let go of his hand.
Although Jiang Liu was worried, he had to let him go. He just smiled and wanted to cheer for his brother, but his father covered his sleeve, "It's so ugly!"
You are ugly! Jiang Liu bit his father's sleeve.
When his son came on stage, Mr. Jiang Erzhan grabbed Lai Liu and lowered his voice and threatened, "If you dare to break your son, I will let you remove your legs tonight!"
"Don't worry, the second master, I'll just lie down when I go up!" Who made him look blind? Lai Liu recognized it today.
Mr. Jiang snorted, "You knock down my son, you will be rewarded."
Hum? Lai Liu blinked his rat eyes and was immediately filled with joy. "I understand, I am satisfied with my small service package. Please wait and see..."
"Don't get up!"
