Chapter 59 The bet is Lihua and her mother
Not to mention Ruan Mingzi, even the villagers watching were angry and laughed.
"Okay, you're so amazing. Take a penny to bet with someone for twenty taels of silver! It's so shameless!"
"You are so stingy, don't bet with the little girl. Come down, although I can't write, it's okay to write a few numbers in a crooked way! I'll bet with the little girl with five taels of silver!"
"I'm eight taels!"
"I'm ten taels!"
The onlookers started to stir up more and more.
Seeing Ruan Mingzi's face showing a hesitant look, she seemed to be a little moved, thinking about whether to replace someone, Feng Gousheng also shouted out: "What's the matter! I'll just bet on you with twenty taels of silver!"
Lihua's throat tightened.
Ruan Mingzi chuckled, "Twenty taels? It's not that I don't look down on you," she smiled meaningfully again, "Who doesn't know that you are Feng Gousheng, Feng Gousheng, your face is cleaner and you are so poor that you are so poor."
Everyone onlookers burst into laughter.
Feng Gousheng's face turned red and then turned a little blue.
Feng Gousheng felt that his face was thrown to the ground and stepped on it twice. How could he tolerate it?
He shouted with his neck thick, "Isn't it just twenty taels! That's not simple!" His eyes were red, he strode forward, pulled Li Hua's arm, and pulled forward.
Lihua was pulled by him and staggered a few steps. Before she could stand still, she heard him say, "My daughter is worth a few taels of silver!"
Li Hua's lips were slightly white, but she was not surprised that her father could do such a thing, and she stood there numbly, not raising her head.
Feng Gousheng looked at Ruan Mingzi eagerly and greedily: "This is enough!"
Ruan Mingzi chuckled with unknown meaning: "Isn't it right?"
"Why is it wrong!" Feng Gousheng said hurriedly.
Ruan Mingzi narrowed her eyes and smiled, "As far as I know, you have lost to others as a bet, how can you bet again?...If you don't have money, forget it."
Someone else joined in the fun and shouted: "Hey, I have money, let me do it!"
"I'll do it, I'll do it!"
Feng Gousheng was so anxious that his forehead was covered with sweat. He shouted: "I haven't come to pick me up yet. Li Hua is still my daughter. I, a father, have the right to deal with her!"
Lihua's mother was anxiously squeezing her fingers. Although she didn't know what Ruan Mingzi was going to do, she was not a mess. Obviously, Ruan Mingzi was going to help them.
At this moment, she can't hold back!
The pear blossoms looked wooden and looked down, as if they could not hear the movements around them.
Ruan Mingzi seemed to be convinced by Feng Gousheng's words. She pinched her chin with one hand and made a meditative look: "Your words make some sense."
Before Feng Gousheng could smile to his ears, Ruan Mingzi slowly added: "But it's not enough."
Feng Gousheng was furious and his eyes were fierce: "Are you little girl playing tricks on me?"
As he said that, he wanted to do something.
Zhou Lizheng coughed heavily.
Feng Gousheng's hand, which had just been raised, froze in the air.
Ruan Mingzi faced Feng Gousheng's gaze and said slowly: "I've inquired. Now, it only takes seven or eight taels of silver to buy a neat girl in the market, which is considered a top-notch. If you press Sister Lihua, it will be a top-notch bet for eight taels of silver. If you want to bet on eight taels of silver with me, you would be too overdoing."
Feng Gousheng gritted his teeth: "Then what do you think!"
Ruan Mingzi made a kindhearted intention: "Or, I will also reduce the bet to the corresponding eight liang..."
"No!" Feng Gousheng spoke urgently.
In his opinion, Ruan Mingzi was so stupid that he wanted to bet on such a simple thing with him. The twenty taels of silver were no different from the things in his bag. Now that it dropped to eight taels, wouldn’t it mean that he took twelve taels of silver from his pocket?!
Feng Gousheng's eyes were so anxious that he was so anxious that he was spinning around.
Suddenly, his eyes fell on Li Hua's mother.
Feng Gousheng's eyes suddenly burst out with his gleam and he shouted: "Then I will press Lihua's mother too!"
Lihua's mother couldn't believe her ears, but she thought again, what was she worth when this man could use his daughter as a bet?
Lihua's mother had long been completely disappointed with Feng Gousheng. Now she heard that he was going to use him as a bet, and she was not very sad, and she felt a little sarcastic.
What has she been working hard for most of her life?
Feng Gousheng's voice was eager: "Although Li Hua's mother is a little older, she has a good needlework. Even if she buys an embroidery girl in the embroidery workshop, it's okay! They both put together to make up twenty taels of silver, it's okay!"
Ruan Mingzi seemed to be hesitating.
Feng Gousheng's mind was full of the twenty taels of silver at this moment, and he urged Ruan Mingzi to rush: "Are you still gamble? Don't you think you're going to bet!"
Ruan Mingzi then clasped her hands and said, "Okay! Since you said that, in order to prevent you from regretting it, you should just put a note in front of the inside."
Zhou Lizheng glanced at Ruan Mingzi deeply.
He vaguely knew what Ruan Mingzi was for.
It should be to save the mother and daughter.
But then again, it is not difficult to write from one hundred. How could she dare to gamble for such a simple thing with twenty taels of silver?
Feng Gousheng thought about the twenty taels of silver he was about to win, so he didn't care about the words at all, but instead urged Zhou Lizheng to write it quickly.
Zhou Lizheng didn't say anything, so he asked Zhou Dengshi to help me dig ink and wrote the words in front of everyone.
The document stated that Feng Gousheng and Ruan Mingzi had bet. If they lose, Li Hua and her mother Xu would have a different relationship with Feng Gousheng from then on.
Zhou Li read the concise words twice in front of everyone.
Feng Gousheng pressed his handprint impatiently. Seeing Lihua's mother and Lihua standing there with a blank expression, he turned around and advised them: "I will win the twenty taels of silver. Come and sign it quickly. This document is just a piece of waste paper!"
Li Hua raised her eyes coldly and looked at Feng Gousheng.
Similar to such words "can definitely win", she has heard it from Feng Gousheng no less than a hundred times over the years.
What is credible about the words of a gambler?
This time I want to bet with them and Ruan Mingzi. If next time, I will bet with them from people from the pickled places of brothels and kilns?
It’s better to lose to Ruan Mingzi this time!
Lihua stepped forward and pressed her handprint.
Although Lihua's mother had tears in her eyes, she said nothing, followed her daughter and pressed her handprints.
Feng Gousheng was overjoyed and turned to ask Ruan Mingzi: "Can you start now, right?"
Ruan Mingzi nodded with a smile: "This is natural."
She borrowed paper and ink from Zhou Lizheng, spread it on the small stone table in the yard, and made a request to Feng Gousheng: "From one to one hundred, you can't make any mistakes. If you win, the twenty taels of silver will belong to you."
