Chapter 192: Promise
Duan Haochu's expression was very natural.
The expression of the girl who heard this sentence was also very natural.
Zhu Luan walked in front of Duan Haochu and pinched the other end of the silver ticket in his hand, Duan Haochu let go, and the silver ticket was in her hand.
Zhu Luan checked the amount of the silver ticket and nodded.
"I did."
All this happened too quickly and smoothly, and before the others in the room could react, at this time, the door of Tianzi Pavilion was suddenly pushed open again, and a delicate female voice came, "Huh? What received? ”
With the words, Duan Lizheng and Duan Zhiyun walked in.
Duan Zhiyun's eyes were still very red, but they were like the two of them with their angry appearance before, and they also had a smile on their faces.
Just downstairs, she took a lot of effort to finally dispel Duan Lizheng's doubts about the marriage contract, her mood was calmed, and she returned to Tianzi Pavilion with her brother, and happened to hear Zhu Luan's words at the door.
Duan Zhiyun's gaze fell on the stack of silver tickets in Zhu Luan's hand, and her whole body stiffened, but she still barely squeezed out a smile, "Is this the money won by the ninth sister?" The ninth sister also bet five thousand taels before, right? After deducting 5,000 taels and these, it's really a lot! ”
Zhu Luan glanced at Duan Zhiyun and smiled, but did not speak.
"It's not just that someone else deducted five thousand taels from her bets before," Situ Gaoyi on the side suddenly smiled and spoke, lest the world look at Duan Haochu in confusion, "Your brother just gave her three silver tickets." ”
Situ Gaoyi wanted to laugh a few more words, but Duan Haochu, who had originally lowered his head and was drinking, raised his head and glanced at him.
Situ Gaoyi had a cool breath behind him for no reason, and the hairs on his body stood on end, and the young man took a deep breath and stopped talking.
But that sentence just now was enough for Duan Zhiyun.
Duan Zhiyun stood in place as if she had been struck by lightning, looked at Duan Haochu in disbelief, her voice was no longer calm, she took two breaths and pointed at Zhu Luan and asked Duan Haochu, "Why did you give her money?" Yes? ”
"Zhiyun, how can you talk to your eldest brother?" Duan Lizheng frowned, grabbed her from behind and scolded.
Duan Zhiyun bit her lip and didn't speak, just stared at Duan Haochu.
Duan Haochu put down and raised his head, the expression on his face did not change much, "Because of this money she won," he said lightly.
"Huh? The money she won? Big brother, you and I are a three-year-old? Don't you understand the rules when you first come to Dusk Cloud Tower? Duan Zhiyun broke free of Duan Lizheng's hand and walked to the table, grabbed the account book on the table, pointed to the account on it and said.
"The rule of double betting is that the winning side can get all the bets placed on him by other gamblers, and the bets placed by the gambler on the losing side and the bets paid by the loser double are converted according to the proportion of the bets placed by the winning punter, except for the commission of the Dusk Cloud Tower, and finally the winner bets on the person."
"Big brother, the money you won from the bet, even if she won in the end, but the money is also our Duan family, why do you want to give it to her?" Duan Zhiyun said menacingly.
The girl's words also expressed the doubts of the other people in the room, including the red-clothed waiter, the people in the room looked at Duan Haochu, and Duan Lizheng's gaze fell directly on Zhu Luan.
He knew the reason for this incident in his heart, and it was not strange for the eldest brother to give her money, but what made him a little strange was that the eldest brother had always been secretive about this woman, from the first time the eldest brother of Lingyan Temple met her, he felt that both of them were a little strange.
But he said it wasn't clear what was weird.
Thinking of the woman's admiration for himself that Duan Zhiyun had talked to him about before, Duan Lizheng's strange feelings in his heart became stronger and stronger.
In stark contrast to the aggressive Duan Zhiyun, the girl in front of her just folded the silver ticket neatly, walked in the direction of her brother with a smile on her face.
The chaos around her didn't seem to have anything to do with her.
When he walked to Zhu Rong's side, Zhu Luan met Duan Lizheng's line of sight and turned his head to look at him.
Duan Lizheng immediately avoided it.
This made Zhu Luan a little strange, because he rarely avoided her gaze.
However, the young man's mood is often a little capricious, Zhu Luan didn't care, and looked away, walked to Zhu Rong's side, and handed him the silver ticket in his hand.
From the time Zhu Luan entered the door, Zhu Rong had been looking at her quietly, and when he saw Zhu Luan walking towards him, a big smile bloomed on the young man's handsome face, but when he saw Zhu Luan actually handed him all the silver tickets, his eyes suddenly widened in surprise.
"Cousin, here you go." Seeing that Zhu Rong didn't reach out to take it, Zhu Luan handed the silver ticket to him again.
"It's your winnings, you just keep it yourself." Zhu Rong stretched out his hand, but instead of taking the silver ticket, he pushed it to Zhu Luan.
Everyone's attention was originally focused on Duan Haochu, but when they heard this, someone looked this way.
"It's weird for two siblings, too." Situ Gaoyi whispered to Hong Shan, "With such a large amount of silver, this brother doesn't want it, is it really safe to stay in the hands of this little girl?" ”
"It's a little weird," Hong Shan nodded.
"It's not like treating my sister at all, it's like offering an ancestor," Situ Gaoyi shook his head and sighed as he remembered what Zhu Rong had said earlier, "let her play".
"After all, it's a brother and sister, and this money is indeed this little girl's," Hong Shan said in the direction of the Duan brothers and sisters, "Is it weird here?" Why did Lord Duan give her a part of the money he won?" "This is not someone else's brother, the money is not given to his own sister to someone else's sister." ”
"You don't have to say a word," Nianhua frowned on the side, "It's someone else's business to do with the money they win." ”
The young people stopped talking, but Duan Zhiyun couldn't laugh at it.
She looked at her brother with burning eyes.
Duan Haochu glanced up at her and put down his wine glass.
"Because the agreement has been made." The man said lightly.
"Agreed?" Everyone in the room looked at each other.
"Could it be ......" Only the waiter in red seemed to remember something.
"Miss Zhu bet on Song Gongzi 5,000 taels, if she wins Song Gongzi, Song Gongzi will lose 10,000 taels and share it with me, and then give half to her." Duan Haochu said.
I see. The waiter in red suddenly realized. He was entrusted by the eldest young master to secretly pay attention to this gambling game on the sidelines, and when the girl proposed to bet Song Xuesong five thousand taels, he was puzzled, because from the gambler's point of view, this is a deal that must be lost.
She won herself, the bet was lost, and the person who bet on her was cheaper, she lost herself, and the bet would not be less, but she had to double the bet on herself, even if she could get the money to bet on Song Gongzi, she still lost more and won less.
At that time, he stood on the side of the stage and saw this girl whispering something, it turned out that at that time he had agreed with the nobleman who bet the most on her to do such a thing.
For Duan Haochu, who bet a lot on her, this is a matter of only making money and not losing, so it is naturally impossible not to agree.
The waiter in red looked at the girl in the room with affection.
To be able to make such a decision in such a short period of time, playing with the rules like a gambling veteran, I really can't see it, this Miss Zhu Jiu is not only hiding the level of memorizing poems.
However, Duan Haochu was not the only one who bet on her a lot at that time.
The red-clothed waiter narrowed his eyes.
As if to confirm his suspicions, there was a knock from a waiter at the door.
"Miss Zhu Jiu, a noble person in the Dizi Pavilion has something for you."
I want to talk about "Yingluan" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
