Chapter 18: Enter the Gambling House
"Then if we can't get along, why do we have to accommodate each other? You can't just go directly, you can just do business directly in another place, and you won't have to worry about these people. β
Su Minglang frowned, and shook his head even more, "No, this is the most prosperous street in the capital, with people coming and going, the most passenger flow, and the most money-making, no matter how honest and kind people are, they will not get along with money." β
"That's right, because everyone knows that this is the best place in the capital, and some vendors want to set up stalls here, but they don't have the opportunity, so how can people here not be satisfied?"
Su Yungu paused, and then continued: "Then do you know that the reason why Guozijian is a top school in my dynasty is not just because it is only because the children of the official family can enter.
What's more, it is a place that the emperor and the court have taken a fancy to, and the people who serve as sacrificial wine and doctors in it are all personally considered and selected by the emperor, and they are really knowledgeable people, so Sister Ah wants you to go.
There may be many gentlemen who fight and brawl inside, make jokes, and even hang a name directly and never go.
But this doesn't mean that everyone will be like this, you look at the big brother, after more than ten years of cold and summer, isn't it still wearing a green shirt, rain or shine?
Clearly, this is just the beginning, and you will meet all kinds of people and all kinds of environments in the future. You have to remember that it's not your surroundings that matter, it's yourself, what kind of person you're going to be and how you're going to do it. β
Only then did Su Minglang understand Su Yungu's intention of bringing him here, and he also understood Su Yungu's painstaking efforts to let him go to Guozijian.
The little face that was originally smiling became serious at some point, he got up, bowed to Su Yungu, bowed his head and replied seriously: "Minglang keep it in mind." β
Su Yungu was relieved at this time, and her eyes became indifferent again, as if she had put everything in her eyes, and it seemed that she had not put anything in it.
Su Minglang also followed her example, half-squinted, and asked lazily: "Does Sister want Minglang to become an official in the future in the future?" β
Su Yungu asked rhetorically, "Don't you want to?" β
Su Minglang's fleshy face was wrinkled, and his dark eyes were curved like two crescents in the sky, he thought about it, and suddenly smiled slyly.
Moved his little body to lie in Su Yungu's ear, and whispered: "It's not that I don't want to, unless I am the one who is on the person." β
Su Yungu turned her head stiffly, and saw that Su Minglang's body had already turned back, and she wrinkled her nose and shook her little short legs.
He saw Su Yungu's almost cracked expression, and he didn't realize what he had just said.
Or, he just wanted to see Su Yungu's expression.
Su Yungu looked at him and grinned, looking like a little devil who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic.
"Sister, don't be afraid, look at what scares you, I don't have that kind of thought, I just don't want to be bound by discipline, that's why I said that. No matter what I do in the future, I must be the kind that can protect my sister all her life. β
Su Yungu stared at him, and suddenly, she was confused in her heart, is this a child or an adult?
Then she chuckled again, what kind of confusion did she make.
This matter is over, but it doesn't mean that she will stop there, Li Fengxian will not give up on her brother's bullying.
When he went back, the red glow was already dyed red all over the sky, and Su Yungu led Su Minglang to Suhou Mansion.
In the early morning of the next day, Su Minglang went to Guozijian early, and Su Yungu also went out with her, and today she also deliberately changed into men's clothes.
Today she wants to go to nowhere else, it is the most lively place in the capital, the gambling house.
Li Fengxian loves to gamble and play, and Su Rili definitely doesn't go to Guozijian often, and she came here to try her luck and see if she can meet him by chance.
Before entering the house, I heard a lot of noise, all kinds of smells were mixed, Su Yungu frowned and pulled the fan to cover her nose.
After walking a few steps, she raised her eyes and saw a young man in brocade standing on a long table not far away, holding this dice in his hand, with a few bruises on his face, which should have been left over from Su Minglang's fight with him yesterday.
For a while, she was a little proud in her heart, she didn't expect her younger brother to be able to pack up the fifteen-year-old Li Fengxian like this.
When looking at Li Fengxian again, this person showed a wanton smile on his face, his chin was slightly raised, so he was not arrogant, and the people around him applauded one after another, saying that the prince of the world was amazing.
Su Yungu thought to herself, I hope that at the end of the while, he will also be so spirited.
"It's not interesting for the prince to play like this, if the master doesn't dislike it, why don't you play a game with the master?"
When everyone heard Su Yungu's voice, they turned their heads one after another, and there was a moment of silence on the table.
I turned around and saw a young man in a white robe, the two locks of bangs on the forehead of the fan fan were blown back, and his little face was whiter than the girl who had smeared powder.
When someone saw her like this, they couldn't help but sneer, "Who is this person, the girl is chirping, and you dare to call our Li Shizi, you better go home and eat two more mouthfuls of food, and grow up." β
"This kind of person should go to Quli Garden to sing, and coming here will sweep away the elegance of our old men."
There were many more ugly words, but Su Yungu didn't take them to heart, and looked at Li Fengxian with a pair of watery eyes.
Li Fengxian was so uncomfortable staring at those eyes, he couldn't help the strangeness in his heart, threw the dice in his hand on the table, tilted his head and smiled to show a mouthful of white teeth, and looked at her a few times.
"How do you want to play?"
"Whoever loses will agree to any request of the other party."
Li Fengxian laughed out loud when he heard this, turned a chair on the side, crossed Erlang's legs and said contemptuously to Su Yungu: "It's not interesting, but I have an interesting one."
Su Yungu looked at the naΓ―ve attitude in front of her, and suddenly thought of Li Qian's face, this is not a loss of sister and brother, and even the behavior is the same.
"Son, please speak."
"I've been short of a servant to help me carry the crickets recently, if you lose, you can come and help me carry the crickets for two months."
"What if the prince loses?"
When Su Yungu spoke, she was quiet, and her voice was always soft and soft, which didn't sound much shocking.
"You little girl, the prince asked you to mention the cricket, that's your honor, and you're still wishful thinking here, our Li Shizi is nicknamed Li Baiying, what kind of ...... are you?"
"You shut up, no one will treat you as a dumb person if you don't speak."
Li Fengxian glared at the man, and when the man saw that he was disliked, he hid in a corner with resentment, dealing with great sadness.
"What do you think you want?"
"After listening to the words of the son, I suddenly remembered that it happened that the younger brother lacked a servant to accompany the study, if the prince lost, how about the son of the world to accompany the younger brother to read for two months?"
