"Have you heard of that Qianjinfang casino in town?" Golden Tree suppressed his voice, "I heard that the second child of your family also lost some silver there, and that Qianjinfang is a place where people eat people and don't spit out bones." ”

But no one who went in to gamble won.

The winners are all casino people.

Old Lady Yuan and Pei Chunhua pricked up their ears and didn't hear what he said, and they suddenly felt bored.

The two began to mumble quietly, and Pei Chunhua asked, "Has Yingzi set a wedding date?" ”

"Not yet." Old Mrs. Yuan shook her head and instructed, "Don't ask, I'll tell you when it's settled." ”

Pei Chunhua nodded, got up and said, "I'll go back first, and I'll come back tomorrow." ”

Old Lady Yuan waved at her.

"That's the case with most casinos." The two of them continued to talk, Pei Ze didn't think there was anything unusual, opening a casino was just relying on the psychology of the world to get rich overnight, those who won still wanted to win, and those who lost still wanted to turn over, before Hua Jiao told him about it, he knew that she was also entrusted by others, he didn't refuse, but he didn't take it to heart, just asked Qiu Hu to investigate, only knew that the owner behind the scenes was Chen Batian, Xu Yingniang's brother-in-law.

Chen Batian and Shang Wu are mortal enemies.

He didn't have anything to do with him, and he didn't want to provoke him.

"The third child, there are also people in our village who go to gamble, those who lose are bankrupt, some of them have broken their legs, women cry and wipe their tears at home, and they can't live their lives, you say that they are all villagers, and I, the chief, look anxious, but I can't help at all." Huang Jinshu scratched his head and said, "There are still few people in our village, and nine out of ten people in the town have lost miserably, some have sold land, some have sold houses, and some have sold daughters-in-law, you can tell me, what is this!" ”

Pei Ze was silent.

"Third child, I know that your family has a big business and doesn't want to cause trouble, but now except for you, there is really no one who can solve this matter." The Golden Tree leaned forward and said, "As far as I know, they not only set up gambling games, but also sell fairy powder. ”

"What is fairy powder?" Pei Chunshan stepped in and just heard it.

Pei Ze also looked up at the Golden Tree and was quite surprised.

He knows the fairy powder.

A kind of medicinal powder that can make people flutter and become addicted to eating, in the northwest, it is expressly forbidden to smoke.

"I heard that I got it from Dongchu, it's expensive, and eating it can make people feel refreshed, and it's addictive." Huang Jinshu said, "I heard that the casino provides free money for those who win, and when he is addicted, he will sell one or two silver packs, so even if the people who go to the casino are lucky enough to win, they will try their best to buy fairy powder." ”

"Isn't that harmful!" Pei Chunshan suddenly remembered Pei Man, turned his head to Pei Ze and said, "Could it be that your second brother is also ......?"

Golden Tree hurriedly said, "I haven't heard of this. ”

"How come I've never heard of anyone in the town smoking fairy powder?" Pei Ze frowned, wondering why Qiu Hu didn't tell him about it?

"It's an open secret in their circle." The golden tree understood and explained, "Besides, if they go to the new face, they don't dare to sell it in a big way, not to mention, this kind of thing is not a thing that can see the light, so outsiders rarely know about it." ”

Pei Ze bowed slightly: "I know." ”

It should be that Qiu Hu saw that he didn't care, and he didn't bother to understand.

After all, they are not surprised by the casino, and they can't go to the casino because their family has lost a few dollars.

After the golden tree left, Wang stepped forward and said: "Third child, you can't take care of this matter, who is willing to gamble, who is bankrupt, who deserves it, let's not care about that idle matter." ”

Pei Ze didn't squeak.

"Women don't care about men's affairs." Pei Chunshan said with a straight face, "Don't be disgusted for the New Year." ”

Wang just wanted to get angry, but Pei Ying pulled her: "Mother, it's the New Year today!" ”

"Dashan, this is your fault." Mrs. Yuan rarely looked at her daughter-in-law, "She just reminded the third child, who is willing to let the child cause trouble." ”

"Look, my mother can understand better than you." Wang glared at Pei Chunshan with dignity.

When it was time to eat, Pei Run and Liu brought the children.

"You're in a hurry." Wang said lukewarmly, "As soon as I cooked the meal, I came over, and I was busy with peppercorns all afternoon."

"I haven't been back for a long time, the house is in chaos, and I cleaned up for a while." Liu Shi sneered, "I'll clean up after eating, you guys have a good rest." ”

"Why didn't the second child come with you?" Old Mrs. Yuan didn't know about Pei Chunshan and Pei Man's face-to-face, Pei Run looked at Pei Chunshan, and said, "Milk, he opened a silk shop in the town, he can't leave, he has to stay there at night, for fear of being stolen!" ”

"Oh, that's something to keep watching." Mrs. Yuan did not doubt it.

Wang made dumplings and made a table full of dishes.

Brother Xuan just woke up, unwilling to look for Pei Ze again, tired of being on the pepper and refusing to come down, the pepper had to eat while holding the child, Pei Ze put the picked fish and meat clip in her bowl, and even the bones in the ribs were pulled out and put in her bowl, Pei Ying covered her mouth and smiled: "My third brother knows more and more about being considerate." ”

"That's not it, your third sister-in-law gave birth to a son for him, but it's a first achievement." Liu smiled, "If I had half of the blessings of your third sister-in-law, I would be content." ”

Sichuan pepper just laughed.

"You have sons and daughters, and what are you not content?" Wang looked at Liu, "You are also content, there are people to help you buy ...... house and boat"

Liu: "......"

Which pot is not opened, which pot is mentioned.

Can't chat!

Sister Xian'er looked at Brother Xuan in Hua Jiao's arms, and suddenly said, "Third aunt, when will you give me a little sister?" I have two younger brothers, but I don't have a sister, and I want a sister......"

Huajiao didn't know how to answer for a while, and smiled awkwardly.

Pei Ze frowned and was silent.

Wang smiled and pounded the peppercorns: "If you take Sister Xian's words quickly, you will say that you will be guaranteed to give birth to a little sister in the coming year, and the words of children are the most accurate." ”

"Yes, yes, your mother is right, take Sister Xian'er's words quickly." Old Mrs. Yuan also urged, "You said that you would give birth to a little sister for her next year, and if you respond, you will definitely be able to give birth." ”

For a while, everyone's eyes looked at the peppercorns.

In front of everyone's eyes, Hua Jiao was really a little embarrassed, and the corner of his eye glanced at Pei Ze, cleared his throat, and said generously to Sister Xian: "Sister Xian, the third aunt will give you a little sister in the coming year, okay?" ”

"Good!" Sister Xian clapped her hands and smiled, "I just like my little sister!" ”

"Third aunt, I also want a little sister." Fuwa, who was bored eating, also opened her mouth coldly.

The crowd burst into laughter.

"Sister Xian and Fuwa are pleasing this year, each with a big red envelope." Wang was very happy, and happily went to wrap the red envelope, Pei An saw that he didn't have his share, so he was anxious, and hurriedly said: "Third sister-in-law, I also want a little niece, you give me a little niece this year, and give them a little sister next year!" ”

Pei Ying almost sprayed tea.

Old Lady Yuan and Liu laughed.

Pei Chunshan and Pei Run also had a rare smile on their faces, Pei Chunshan touched Pei An's head, and said with a smile: "You baby, you can't figure out the seniority when you're so old, isn't your little niece their sister!" ”

Pei An stuck out his tongue.
