In the Su family at night, everyone else was asleep at this time, and the only light was Su Qinghuang's own room.

Inside the house, Su Qinghuang sat on the bed, closed his eyes slightly, without a sound, for a long time, there was a breeze floating, the roof eaves bell rang softly, and a layer of light and foggy aura slowly swung in the air, Su Qinghuang reopened his eyes and sighed with relief.

"Su Qinghuang, you say, what else are you hiding?"

"I'm really, getting more and more unable to see through you. ”

At night, the evening breeze rose slightly, and stars fell on the Milky Way.

"Anyway, I can't sleep, it's rare to have this great scenery, and it's really a shame not to have a pot of peach blossom wine." Su Qinghuang looked out the window with a smile, took the celadon wine jug that had been placed on the table at night, and a harrier turned over on the roof.

Looking at the long shadow on the roof that was pulled by the moonlight, Su Qinghuang laughed at himself slightly: "Can I call it a toast to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio." ”

"It's that the starry sky here is far cleaner and brighter than in my previous life, but I always feel that something is missing. "I swallowed half a pot of clear brew in one gulp, although the degree is not as good as the liquor in the previous life, but this way of drinking is also slightly choking. Feeling the aftertaste flowing in his throat, Su Qinghuang wiped the corners of his mouth happily, just lying on the roof and looking at the sky, a rare mind to relax, at this time, there is nothing to deceive, and there is no way to practice, some are just one person, a pot of wine, a bright moon, and the sky is full of stars.

He is not a person who likes to intrigue and play with power and calculation, but when he comes here, he has to forcibly pick up these things that he hated before, and only he can taste the taste. After all, if this big family has no one to rely on, the old and the young, plus a group of charming female dependents, you can know what the ending will be with your ass.

The Li family, as well as the one behind it, who is not a person who eats people and does not spit out bones, the road is long, and there is no turning back from the moment he sets foot on this road.

But in the end, there was still only one sentence left, "It's really hypocritical, why worry so much, just look at the destiny of heaven, always do your best, and be worthy of this life." Thinking of this, Su Qinghuang finally became more cheerful and jumped back into the house. But he never noticed that in the inconspicuous corner of the roof in another place, there was also a shadow, which had been watching him silently, until he returned to the house, and then quietly left without making a sound.

......

At noon the next day, it was a sunny day. Dabi, which was interrupted by a spring rain before, was reconvened today at the behest of Xu Xiao, the county guard of Qingjun. Because Dabi is the head of the Qingjun Mansion, the official color is strong, Xu Xiao did not appear in person today, only sent a henchman over, but there are idle Pingtou people nearby still came to come over to have a lively time, even more lively than the first day before, because the outside of the ring is surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside. Even more up, the small merchants and vendors who came up to make noises, and for a time the shouts of those selling gadgets and eating food were endless.

"Bet bet, bet, buy and leave your hand, buy and leave, say you, Wang bald, you fucking bet, don't bet on me, don't bet on me, don't take up a place here, block the people behind. In the gambling stall on the side, there were thugs who maintained order and shouted impatiently.

At this time, the gambling stall is always the most lively in Qingjun, this kind of rare event on weekdays, the gamblers who are pressed by the black pressure are red eyes one by one to bet on the table, a lot of silver and copper coins are sprinkled out like flowing water, and the pile is three feet high on the side, there is no father and son on the casino, if you want to earn silver here, you have to have a good eye and courage.

The constipated expression on the face of the man called Wang Bald was entangled in front of the table for a long time, and the silver ingot in his hand was all sweat, and he still couldn't decide which one to throw it on. It is said that according to the previous experience, this silver was designated to be invested in Su Qinghuang's opponent's family, but Su Qinghuang's amazing performance in the previous one really made many people almost bankrupt.

He has been bald since he was a child, and he has no mother-in-law and aunt in his early thirties, and he is regarded as a joke by the whole village in their village, and the silver in his hand is still the salary settled by the owner for a whole year as a helper last year. I wanted to have a good rest for a few days this year, but this rare opportunity not to take the risk of Bo, how can he still marry a daughter-in-law in his life, the widow of the king at the head of the village has already released a word to him, and he doesn't want to touch her a finger without twenty taels of silver.

On one side is the previously famous Qingjun gentleman, the kind who has to spit two mouthfuls into the mud when his name is mentioned by everyone, and on the other side is his opponent in this field, of course Wang Bald doesn't have the blessing to know people. However, from what I heard from the mouths of a few people who claimed to be insiders just now, this realm quenched the second realm, but it was far stronger than the last young master of the Wei family, named Huang Zhengguo. It seems that there is no big family to rely on on the surface, and it is all based on his own hard work in the boxing ring.

I heard that if the outstanding performance of the big competition this time can be seen by the county guard, and can be retained in the government, this person came here on purpose, wanting to break into the hall of fame with his skills, in case he can be looked at by Xu Xiaogao, then the ancestral tomb will be smoking. ：

Which one to choose? The bald man hesitated.

When he was hesitating, the second stunned man from the village who followed him squeezed in from behind, and all the five big money was given to Huang Zhengguo.

Wang Bald glanced at him and said, "Erleng, you have a total of so many bits and pieces at home, and they are all pressed on this today, and you are not afraid that if something happens, even your pants will be lost, and you will go out tomorrow." ”

Erleng smiled, and replied in a strange way: "Xiu'er said that if you want to marry her, you must at least carry a sedan chair carried by the two of you with five taels of silver as a gift money." After today's few games, my five hangs of money will become twenty taels of snowflake silver, and when the time comes, Xiu'er will follow me, not much better than your king bald. ”

The Xiu'er in Erleng's mouth is the Wang Yunxiu that Wang Bald is thinking about.

It was originally a person from another village who married into their Zaozhuang, and the one who was born was called an eyebrow with affection, rippling into the bones, who wanted to get married only three years later, her husband passed away due to illness, and since then this Zaozhuang has become an ownerless person, and has been remembered by several singles in the village. Sorry for her. The vision is very high, and he opens his mouth to pay twenty taels of silver for the bride price, who can take out so much at once, so after so many years, Wang Yunxiu has become yesterday's yellow flower, and he still has never found someone who is willing to use twenty taels of silver to hire.

The bald king gritted his teeth, and always said that the bold would starve to death the cowardly, and what he would eat behind the stream would always be leftovers.

"Su Qinghuang, Su Qinghuang, my bald man has been looked down upon all his life, this time I gritted my teeth and fought once, don't let me lose my old book for the first time in my life." Thinking so, the bald man slapped the ingot of silver in his hand on the gambling table.

"I'll press five taels of silver, Su Qinghuang. Wang Bald was born with a loud voice, and this voice was even more resolute with gritted teeth, and half of the people in the audience could hear it.

For a few seconds, a needle dropped from the entire gaming table could be clearly heard, and then, from the stillness to the stillness, like a suppressed spring, suddenly gushed out, and the unbridled mockery of everyone sounded around him, making the bald king, who had never seen the world, at a loss.

Five taels of silver for the rich. It's nothing, a good table of banquets may cost thirty or fifty taels, but the big family has its own special place to bet, and most of the people gathered at this gambling table are the so-called low-level laborers and inferior people in Qingjun. Don't say five taels of silver, taking out one or two will hurt for a long time.

"Wang Bald, are you crazy about money, suppressing Su Qinghuang? Is there anyone in the entire Qingjun who doesn't know this Po Lai's morality, don't you really think that he turned over after winning the last game? This Wei family and the Su family have a good relationship, and the old lady Su had a deep friendship with the old man Wei back then, and he couldn't wait to wear a pair of pants. ”

Erleng's voice was even more wanton to the extreme: "That's it, haha, buy and leave." Wang Bald, you don't have a few hairs in your head, don't say it, why are you still so unbright, you can still hear the sound of this silver thrown into the water, now it's okay, Xiu'er, you are worried, I Erleng can finally hug the beauty this time. ”

Wang Bald just didn't say anything, he was not a good speaker, and he was ridiculed once or twice on weekdays, but he had a personality that couldn't be said to be an advantage or a disadvantage, and he recognized a thing, even if there were many difficulties and obstacles and incomprehension, he would do it all at once. If it sounds good, it is called poor and strong, and if it is ugly, it is called stunned, in fact, the name Erleng is more suitable for him.

Although this incident caused a lot of jokes for a while, and many mud-legged people were waiting to see his jokes, but since he came here, the bet still had to be placed, and soon the bustling people behind quickly squeezed Wang Bald aside and continued to bet, and when it was about to start, the bet was about the same.

Today's round has a total of sixteen people and eight competitions, and the casino has specially divided sixteen black mahogany square tables, with the names of these sixteen people in the big book on them, and the copper coins on each table can be piled up into a three-foot-high mountain, except for the pitiful silver coins on Su Qinghuang's table.

Many people in front of the table were looking forward to it, and the crowd was crowded, and Wang Bald's nervous brain was full of beads of sweat, and it was almost time to stop betting at the beginning, and Su Qinghuang only had more than a dozen or less than twenty copper coins on the table in addition to his five taels of silver.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have to bet on the opening to stop, and those who haven't made up their minds are all tight. The guys were shouting hard, trying to pull some more silver at this last moment, but the money was already placed at this time when they were going to bet, and they shouted a few times and received only a few copper plates, and just as they were about to make the final count, suddenly, a little girl with a blue cloth pocket in her arms squeezed from the crack to the front.

The little girl opened the cloth pocket, and the white silver almost blinded everyone in the sun, she pushed the silver to the table proudly, and said with a wave of her little hand: "Fifty taels of silver, all for Su Qinghuang." ”

This is almost equal to the silver sent for nothing, and the guys with sharp beaks and cheeks were startled, and then immediately reacted and took it in diligently. I don't know whose stupid girl is taking so much silver to invest in a losing game. But whatever, who can not be happy if he makes some money.

There were well-wishers around who reminded: "Little girl, where did you get so much silver, isn't it all to Su Qinghuang to find compensation, if your adults know about it, they will be spanked." ”

The little girl looked up at the slim old locust tree on the side, the fine fragments of light scattered through the gaps in the leaves, she subconsciously narrowed her eyes, for a long time, and suddenly said in an ethereal voice: "You guys who are not knowledgeable and short-sighted, have pressed the silver to Huang Zhengguo, and after a while, I'm afraid you will have to line up to jump into the river." ”

"How do you talk little girl? ”

"Like, who here doesn't eat more salt than you eat. ”

"Forget it, why bother to be like a child, maybe a big family stole the master's money, wait, she will lose the money and go back to her to feel better. ”

There were angry sarcastic voices all around, and in addition to Wang Baldzi, there was another boy with a mask.

"Little girl, why do you think Su Qinghuang will win, after all, there is no one here who doesn't know his virtue. The masked boy asked, half-crouching.

The little girl tilted her head slightly, looked at him and said, "The girl said, Shibei should be impressed in three days, and there is an example of the last game, how do you know that Su Qinghuang will definitely lose." ”

"That Wei Qiancheng is a genuine quenching second realm, not to mention anything else, it is always easy to slap a few people here. ”

"Well said, there are so many adults, and there is not as much knowledge as a little girl. The boy said with a smile, wanting to reach out and touch the little girl's bun, but she deftly avoided it.

The boy was not embarrassed, but turned around and slapped it on the table, and then said loudly: "I also bet on Su Qinghuang to win, Tongfang's silver ticket, one thousand taels." ”
