Chapter 130 Fighting too hard to play mahjong
The weather is not good.
A sudden Pacific storm brought heavy rains and strong winds to California, and important power transmission pipelines in the north and south were cut off, resulting in power outages in 150,000 households.
Interstate 5 entering and leaving Los Angeles has been closed long ago, and tornadoes have also blew down trees and wires in southern California, and even overturned the roofs of some houses.
In San Diego, California, a big tree that was blown down by a strong wind happened to be pressing on a car, causing the driver in the car to be seriously injured and failed to wake up for two days. Recently, this news has been broadcast on TV, and a doctor vaguely said: There is so much danger.
The local government in San Francisco also sent a message to persuade everyone to go out less and stay at home more often.
All enterprises and shops are on holiday, and only the hospital is busy. You can hear the bells of the ambulance on the road every once in a while. Perhaps someone was injured again.
Han Xuan's itinerary was completely disrupted.
He was trapped in the Hilton Hotel in Union Square, San Francisco. He had been staying for four days. The road was closed and helicopter was even more unsafe. The old man asked him to live here with peace of mind, afraid that his grandson would encounter any danger on the way back rashly.
It rains every day in San Francisco and has not been resting for a minute for a few days.
Due to the old underground drainage facilities in some areas, in some low-lying places, the cars are soaked in water, leaving only the roof outside.
The fish running out of the lake can swim to residents' homes. The beautiful host of San Francisco TV station is saying that people in this city have to travel by boat recently.
Mrs. Cecilia's art exhibition was also ruined. The number of visitors was originally reduced from the day of development. After delaying these days, there will be fewer people watching it later.
Fortunately, most of the exhibits for sale have already reached an agreement with individuals or galleries. It is just a loss of the opportunity to increase fame among ordinary visitors. It is nothing, and there is time in the future.
The exhibition will be one week away, and next is Picasso's art exhibition. I believe that many people will not come to see her again. Mrs. Cecilia has been staying leisurely in the Hilton Hotel these days, so that her daughter will not be dazed all day long.
The two children got together and watched movies and swimed. The facilities in the room were very complete and they wouldn't feel bored.
Lopez and his other bodyguards hid in the chess and card room to play cards for nothing. Under Han Xuan's professor, they could start playing mahjong the day before yesterday. Asians come to live in the Hilton Hotel all year round, so there are such gambling tools in the warehouse, so it is very easy to find two pairs.
As the saying goes, "One billion people have nine hundred million people. There are still one hundred million people to observe."
China has just opened up after many hardships, but these little things were the first to successfully enter the world stage and gradually became popular all over the world...
The bodyguards "birds", "four pussy", and "fa-cai" were so hot that they shouted loudly that they didn't stop all night, but the sounds were much lower at night.
Seven people gathered together for a table, and the other people were missing one, so they caught them blindly on the spot.
After playing mahjong and playing studs, I felt that I was not interested at 21 o'clock. Sometimes I even pulled Han Xuan over to make up the numbers. The boy really won a lot of money and could get nearly 2,000 US dollars.
It may be that God is silently favoring him. No matter which country, women seem to have the talented skills to master this "table game".
At first, Mrs. Cecilia was just bored, so she came over to take a look, and then sat at the table without realizing it. From then on, she began her next journey of getting rich.
"So do you have to go to Los Angeles with me for a few days? Anya said that there is no need to attend classes recently, her art teacher has gone to Germany for further studies." Han Xuan found that several bodyguards were pale, and saw that the girl's mother was holding Zhang Batiao in her hand. She sighed in her heart, but she was still the same...
"It's a blessing!"
Cecilia had only heard the word "Hu" from Han Xuan. The pronunciation was not standard, and she almost read it accordingly. She turned around and smiled: "Of course, I haven't had a rest for a long time, and this time I thought it was a vacation..."
The same goes for the other people. They learned this Chinese sentence by copying it, but unfortunately there are few opportunities to use it.
They didn't play much, and they counted as five dollars. They were all guys who had money in their pockets but were busy with work all day long and had no place to spend money, but they couldn't resist losing and not winning.
Lopez took out all the pockets of his body, borrowed some from his companions, and then settled the card of Mrs. Cecilia Hu, sat on the chair and shook his hands: "I'll take a break first, you guys can play."
"Sorry."
The eyes were a little red all night when playing cards. The beard had no time to shave. He stubbornly passed through the muscle-filled face and grew out. Lopez rubbed his face and stood up. Han Xuan thought he was going to sleep, but he didn't think about it...
He got into his room, quickly took a piece of paper to find Han Xuan, and whispered: "How do they read them? Teach me."
The boy looked down and his expression was quite wonderful.
I saw that the entire piece of paper in my hand was covered with simple mahjong shapes, and there was still room next to him for him to fill in the name.
Anya watched TV on the sofa, caught a glimpse of this scene, stepped on the wooden floor barefoot, trotted over, and asked, "What?"
"Mahjong, an entertainment activity invented by ancient Chinese people, can be traced to three or four thousand years ago." Han Xuan raised his head and looked at her and said with a smile.
Lopez said in shock: "Three or four thousand years? That's it?"
Looking back at the chess and card room, he said, "No wonder it's so interesting."
Anya's focus was different from his. She looked contemptuous and spoke to the boy: "Gambling is just gambling, what kind of entertainment activities, my mother has never played cards before, and she has been ruined by you."
"By the way, did she win or lost today?"?
"Win, you won at least more than 6,000 US dollars!" Lopez said with a sad face. The money was used by the boss for them to go out for public sales. Now it has not lost the benefits, but it has paid a lot. He likes to play and cannot blame others, but he is not willing to admit defeat.
"It's so great! I want her to buy me a gift!" The one who criticized Mahjong just now, but when he heard Ropez's words, the girl jumped up happily, swung her ponytail, and trotted to Cecilia, hugging her waist like a koala, and seemed to be acting coquettish.
Han Xuan couldn't hear what they were saying, and felt funny.
Looking at Lopez, he asked, "Are you sure you don't have to go to bed? You look very tired, sir."
"No, no, no, it's not too late to sleep after lunch."
Lopez's head shook like a rattle, staring at the boy, afraid that he would not agree.
"Okay okay, this is suo, these are wan, they are called wang." Han Xuan pointed it at him one by one.
It is difficult to translate English, so they can read the pinyin according to them, and while reading Chinese, they are thinking about and barely translating.
"Block-walls, self-touching (sex-lf-drawn), falsifying (fal-hu)..."
Han Xuan felt a slight wind blowing from his face, so he paused and raised his head, only to find that Lopez's face was pressed against him.
