Chapter 72 Gambling Harms

After returning home, Shen Qingyun asked Hanfeng to finish Chen Yan's side.

Now that Chen Yan was holding Yueniang's money, he naturally felt free and easy for a while. For several days in a row, he won more money and lost less. When he won, he and Ma Jin went to eat and drink, and then bought some small jewelry for Yueniang. Rouge, gouache, etc., hug her and make love.

Yueniang was so coaxed by him that she felt happy and felt that good days were ahead.

Although she also felt sorry for Shen Zhifeng, she was addicted to this secret joy in her heart.

Tonight, Chen Yan was not as complacent as he had been for several days, and started to feel a little upset.

The dice player shook the dice cup while shouting loudly: "Buy and leave. The more you bet, the more you win. A small bet will support your family, and a big bet will make you rich!"

Chen Yan put the money on the big side and shouted with others: "Big! Big! Big!"

"Open it, little one."

"Fuck you!"

Chen Yan's eyes turned red, and he punched the wooden table angrily. He touched his pockets and wanted to gamble again, but found that he had no money. He rummaged around impatiently: "Brother Ma, do you still have any money?"

Ma Jin had a grimace on his face, pursed his lips, and sighed: "No, hey, we all lost. How could this happen?"

"I'll definitely get my money back in one more game!" Chen Yan beat his chest and found the person at the gambling house: "I want to pawn this jade pendant. How much can it be?"

The little boy's eyes flashed with a thief, and he looked around with the jade pendant. The water level was not bad: "Twenty taels of silver."

"What? It's only 20 taels. This jade pendant is worth at least 100 taels!" Chen Yan shouted in disbelief.

The young man looked indifferent: "In my case, it's 20 taels. Hey, sir, as long as you win one, not to mention a hundred taels, even a thousand taels of silver, it's easy."

Chen Yan struggled in his heart, but in the end he couldn't restrain his inner desire. He thought about betting on the last round and redeeming the jade pendant if he won: "Okay, I'll bet, give me the money."

The boy smiled and took out 20 taels of silver.

After Chen Yan got the money, he immediately threw himself into the gambling game again. He stared at the dice cup and kept thinking in his heart: "Big! Big! Big!"

The dice hand opened the dice cup: "Small."

Suddenly someone cheered.

Chen Yan almost collapsed on the ground, wishing he could beat his chest, why didn't he keep his child in custody?

Ma Jin also kept sighing: "What a pity, what a pity, Brother Chen, if we win this time, we will get our money back in one fell swoop!"

Chen Yan's head was already buzzing, and a man came over: "Hey, brother, do you want to help? I see that you have been very lucky before. I work in overlapping here, and everyone calls me Lao Si."

Ma Jin and Lao Si started chatting, and Lao Si said, "I've been watching you for a long time. How about I lend you a little and then pay me back after I get my money back?"

"Really?" As soon as Chen Yan heard that he was willing to borrow money, he immediately called out to his fourth brother. He quickly took the money and returned to the gambling table. Unexpectedly, he won in no time.

"Fourth brother, you are really my lucky star!" Chen Yan held the silver in his hand with a smile on his face.

"Hey, tell me this, brother, what's next?" Lao Si smiled warmly, making Chen Yan feel more cordial.

However, unexpectedly, his good luck ran out again and he lost five games in a row. Not only did he lose everything he won, he also lost all the money he borrowed.

"Fourth brother, can you lend me some more?"

"no problem."

Just like that, one night passed and Chen Yan was already heavily in debt and was pressed to his knees by the people in the gambling shop.

As soon as Ma Jin saw this situation, he ran away immediately.

Chen Yan was completely dejected, as if all his strength had been drained away, and he knelt on the ground shivering. After a while, his face was swollen, and one of his hands was stepped on the ground.

The boss of the gambling house looked at him sideways: "How can you pay back the money you owe? If you can't pay it back, then I can only chop off one of your arms."

"No, no, I can pay it back. I have a place to get the money." When Chen Yan heard that his hand was going to be chopped off, he immediately burst into tears and begged the gambling house to let him go.

"Where to get the money, don't lie to us."

"No, I don't dare, I don't dare, just on Pipa Street."

Several big men followed Chen Yan to Pipa Street, broke into Yueniang's house, and began to search for property everywhere. The jewelry on the dressing table was immediately emptied, the money was also ransacked, and even the bed was turned over for inspection.

Is there anything hidden?

When Yueniang saw Chen Yan barging in with so many people, she was so frightened that the maid Ling'er, who used to be angry and arrogant, hid aside and did not dare to speak, and was so frightened that she burst into tears.

Chen Yan stood aside tremblingly, not daring to speak.

The strong man at the head weighed the belongings in his hand: "These don't seem to be enough."

"Chen Yan, who are they? That's my thing, don't take it! It's illegal to break into a private house, I'm going to report it to the police!"

Yueniang saw everyone turning the house upside down and couldn't help shouting.

The strong man glanced at Yueniang and his eyes lit up: "Hey, your wife is quite good-looking and has a hot temper, which is really good. Reporter, why don't you give me a hug first, hahaha."

Several people burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Yueniang's face was pale, with tears in her eyes. She bit her lip and did not dare to speak anymore. She held her hands in front of her chest to block the whiteness.

But this charming and fragile appearance greatly stimulated this group of people.

The strong man hugged Yueniang and smiled at Chen Yan: "If you let your wife stay with our brothers for a few days, I won't pursue the remaining money."

Yueniang struggled wildly, but unfortunately her strength was too weak. She was completely trapped in the strong man's arms, and a wave of hot air rushed to her face.

She asked with tears in her eyes: "What money, what do you do, please let me go."

When Chen Yan didn't answer, the strong man said, "You don't know, right? Your husband owes us thousands of taels of silver in our gambling house and he can't pay back, so he brought us here."

Yueniang was stunned. She didn't expect that Chen Yan would bring such a group of people to snatch her things. She yelled: "He is not my husband. Chen Yan, you are a coward and a beast. You can't do this to me!"

But Chen Yan could no longer protect himself. At this moment, he only nodded and bowed to the strong men, not daring to look at Yueniang at all.

Several strong men looked at each other, smiled, and walked into the house with Yueniang in their arms.

One person also saw Ling'er beside him: "Boss, there is another one here, and he is also pretty."

The leader laughed loudly: "Okay, brothers, enjoy it by yourself."

Ever since she fell out with Chen Yan, Yueniang had sent away all the other maids and women on the pretext of lack of money, leaving only her and Ling'er. She really regretted it at this moment.

The two people took Ling'er to another room, and soon the sound of crying could be heard.
