Chapter 9 Plans for Wealth
"Miss, these clothes are so dirty, why don't we go out? lest these clothes stain the body of the young lady's jade leaves and golden branches. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info"Chen'er saw the stitches and looked at Twilight with anticipation in her eyes, hoping that her young lady would change her mind temporarily, and stay in the yard well, even if her young lady was listless and getting thinner and thinner, she didn't care, it was better than seeing her young lady being punished by her uncle.
When Twilight endured the smell of sweat and changed her clothes and took Chen'er to find the dog hole in the Hou Mansion, Twilight jumped down happily and excitedly, God knows how decadent and angry she felt when she couldn't climb the high wall of the backyard several times!
She couldn't climb over even one wall, so she was decadent, but an ancient wall was so high, so she was angry!
As Twilight prepares to climb out of the dog's hole, she thinks of her unappetizing baby face, so she simply picks up the dirt on the ground and puts a dry mud mask on her face.
"Miss, why are you catching dirt and smearing it on your face, the dirt near this dog hole must be stained with dogs......" said Chen'er, looking at Twilight with a strange expression, as if she couldn't bear to continue talking.
Twilight: "...... Why didn't you say it earlier? ā
Twilight sniffed the dirt she was still holding in her hand, and after a long time, she didn't seem to smell the smell of dog before she continued to wipe it on her face.
Chen'er watched the young lady behave so indecently and dirty, and her stomach churned. She grew up in a study room, and even a subordinate had never touched such a dirty thing. Chen'er thought in disgust, and saw Twilight suddenly stand up and wipe her face for a while......
Twilight walked down the street with a cheerful face, looking at this stall and looking at that stall, every stall must be made for food.
Chen'er followed behind her own lady with a helpless face, and resigned herself to handing over the money after the young lady took someone else's things. This visit patronized the food stalls of the entire East Street, and when Twilight remembered Chen'er after eating and drinking, Chen'er only had a piece of broken silver left in his hand.
Twilight Chi looked at Chen'er's dirty face revealing a desire to cry without tears, and when she saw a half-hidden door and still saw the figures walking in the house, Twilight's eyes lit up and patted Chen'er's shoulder and said confidently: "Wait, Miss, I'll go and earn some silver and I'll take you to eat and drink spicy food when I come back, we didn't even look at those food stalls just now." ā
When Chen'er heard this, not only was she not happy, but she also felt a strong uneasiness, and she immediately took her young lady's hand, "Miss, it doesn't matter if the slave maid eats fragrant food or drinks spicy food, Miss has gone shopping enough, let's go home quickly, right?" ā
Seeing Chen'er's timid appearance, Twilight sighed, and then walked to the half-closed shop with his head raised and his chest straight. "Follow, Miss said that if you want to eat and drink spicy, you will definitely be allowed to eat and drink spicy!"
Chen'er looked like she wanted to persuade but was afraid to persuade because there were too many people around her, so she could only follow Twilight Chi in with a bitter face.
As soon as Twilight entered, he saw a somewhat dark shop, bustling with all kinds of people. There are rich and noble men in gorgeous clothes, ordinary people in ordinary cloth clothes, and even more people in the rivers and lakes with knives behind their backs with fierce faces, everyone is around a round table, some people are happy, some people are sad, it can be described as lively and extraordinary, not exciting!
Twilight took Chen'er to get in with her thin body, and after getting close to the table to see the size of the table, she stood with a very interested look and watched others place bets.
That's right, the place where Twilight found a fortune was the gambling house, and in this era, Twilight didn't know if this gambling house was legal, but she saw so many people enthusiastically participate. In this atmosphere, who cares if it's legal or not?
Twilight first stood at the table and watched the people play a few rounds, and then, after hearing the pattern with her ears, she also took the only ingot of broken silver and tried it eagerly.
The people around the table had already noticed the two dirty and dressed like little beggars in front of them, and when they saw one of them looking at the dice shaking on the table with bright eyes, everyone wanted to laugh and looked down on them.
The two little beggars also dare to gamble, don't cry if you lose.
When the dice shaker stopped, all the people followed the person next to Twilight who had just won the money and bought the small one, and Twilight listened carefully to the sound and finally decided to buy the big one.
Chen'er looked at her from the side, and originally thought that her young lady was so smart, she wouldn't lose if she bought it with others, right? But when she saw that her young lady was different, she bought a big one, and she didn't know whether to be happy or sad, laughing or crying for a while.
Twilight Chi looked at the mediocre-looking boy next to him in brocade clothes and jade belts, and when he saw that he was also looking at him, he raised his eyebrows and looked at him provocatively, thinking to himself, do you think you have won the game?
The time for everyone to get nervous was coming, and watching the person who was shaking the dice lift the lid, everyone sighed for a while, and no one was happy except for Twilight's eyes crooked with a smile.
From a piece of broken silver to an ingot of fifty taels of silver, the more time passed, and the more silver piled up in front of him. Twilight smiled so much that she couldn't see her teeth, and Chen'er was even more excited and flushed.
The gamblers who were originally following the noble boy were all hugging behind Twilight and the two of them, and those gamblers followed her wherever she played, and the more time passed, Twilight finally noticed that something was wrong, and Twilight secretly stuffed the silver on the table into Chen'er's arms behind him.
"Miss, what's ......" Chen'er asked a little puzzled, but was stopped by her own young lady's hand. Chen'er saw her young lady's appearance, and she was also a little uneasy. Since she was a child, her mother said that gamblers would not end well, and when she also noticed that the person who was shaking the dice was watching them with gloomy eyes, Chen'er was stupid if she didn't know what was going on.
"Ouch, brother, my stomach hurts." Chen'er was poked in the stomach by Twilight, and at first she didn't understand what it meant, but when she found out that the situation was wrong, she realized the meaning of Miss and started to hurt when she realized the meaning of Miss.
Seeing this, Twilight turned to look at Chen'er in a panic, and exclaimed, "Didi, what's wrong with you?" Don't be afraid, my brother will take you to see the doctor! ā
After speaking, Twilight Chi grabbed the silver taels on the table with one hand, and didn't care if she could take them completely or not, she grabbed Chen'er with one hand and ran out of the door. Fortunately, when Chen'er pretended to be in pain just now, the people around him dispersed a little, so that Twilight and Chen'er quickly ran out of the gambling house.
As soon as they came out of the gambling house, they saw several tall and strong men chasing after them with unkind eyes.
Twilight Chi was pulling Chen'er to run while thinking about the possibility of defeating five or six strong men, and finally gave up pulling Chen'er and ran even harder.
She and Chenchen are NO.1 every time they drink and shake the dice, and when she entered the gambling house, she anticipated the shady methods of the underworld. Although Twilight thinks that the person who runs the gambling house makes so much money every day, it is nothing to give her, but some people are just so stingy.
