Chapter 268: The Gambler
For the eldest grandson of the Twelve Pillars, marriage is actually not something that can be completely decided by himself.
The marriage of the eldest grandchildren of the Twelve Pillars is often very utilitarian, either to win over the new young handsome, or to balance the relationship between the Twelve Pillars, marriage is a bargaining chip, the chips are placed there, it depends on where it is advantageous, and there can be won.
Often, the marriage partners of the characters of the eldest grandson of the Twelve Pillars are selected among the twelve optimus families, and they will not easily step out of the threshold of the Twelve Pillars Stone, unless they are the kind of extraordinarily good handsome and beautiful women.
Just like Tu Jun, he married the girl of the Zhou family, and from then on, the relationship between the two Zhou families will go further, and there will be in-depth cooperation in many aspects.
It can be said that the marriage of the eldest grandson represents the development goals of a family in the next ten years and the tendency to cooperate.
What is this Zheng Xian? I've never heard of it, I've never seen it.
Many people immediately ordered to find out where this Zheng Xian came from.
However, it is really not easy to check Zheng Xian, after all, Zheng Xian is not in their circle at all, and if he passes through the sieve, he will have to go through it at least ten times before he can sift Zheng Xian's small miscellaneous fish out of the sixth division of the business.
Fiance?
At this moment, in the shadow not far away, stood a figure that seemed to have never existed, and only then appeared.
The pitch-black sharkskin tights, the huge periscope-like helmet, the claws of the mecha, the soles of the mechas, there is no one else in the whole world, only a nightingale!
Tu Jun is Nightingale's elder brother, their brother and sister have had a good relationship since childhood, Tu Jun is engaged, there is no reason for Nightingale to be absent, but Nightingale doesn't like to see people, and she doesn't like to be seen by others, so no one can notice her presence at this engagement ceremony.
The nightingale's appearance seemed a little strange, and when she heard the words of her fiancé, the nightingale tilted her head slightly.
"Sister's fiancé, sister, you, this, congratulations. ”
Hearing the words of her fiancé, Zhou Meiqi was a little at a loss for a while, but suddenly felt that this was really a great thing, after all, if Zhou Jiaojiao had stopped pestering Tujun, for Zhou Meiqi, it would be like beating gongs and drums to celebrate.
Although she knew that it was impossible to do it, Zhou Meiqi still sent congratulations with a smile on her face as soon as possible, she hoped that her grumpy cousin would marry as soon as possible and completely cut off all relations with Tu Jun, because she knew very well in her heart that Tu Jun might not have other thoughts in her heart about this cousin.
Zhou Jiaojiao's eyes seemed to see through Zhou Meiqi, and she smiled, but there was a cold glint in the depths of her eyes.
As a member of the Zhou family, Zhou Meijiao has also started to practice martial arts since she was a child, and because she is about the same age as Zhou Jiaojiao, she has become the object of Zhou Jiaojiao's training, and the result can be imagined, Zhou Meiqi was pressed by Zhou Jiaojiao for a full twenty years, and the result of each sparring was that Zhou Meiqi was injured all over her body.
And for Zhou Jiaojiao, the woman in front of her has been her own defeated all her life, but she suddenly defeated her in the most important thing and snatched her man, and the person who had been riding under her suddenly turned over and climbed on top of her head, this subversion, this frustration, of course, made Zhou Jiaojiao hate this cousin to the core.
Even if Zhou Jiaojiao wins Zhou Meiqi for a lifetime, this one thing alone is enough to turn everything around.
Zhou Meiqi shuddered, her fear of Zhou Jiaojiao was born from the bottom of her heart and rooted in the bone marrow, and she really knew Zhou Jiaojiao too well, Zhou Jiaojiao's expression at this time showed that Zhou Jiaojiao was angry in her heart and was going to destroy it!
Zhou Meiqi immediately said a few kind words, and hurriedly wanted to return to Tujun's side. When facing Zhou Jiaojiao, I am afraid that only Tu Jun can protect himself.
Zhou Jiaojiao followed Zhou Meiqi step by step, pulling Zheng Xian onto the fake lawn.
As soon as he stepped into the lawn, Zheng Xian immediately felt warm as spring, as if he had entered a heated room from outside in winter when the north wind was howling.
If you don't set foot in it, you will never know the mystery of the Dao.
Yuan Zheng Xian felt that these guys were really sick in the head when they spread fake grass on the ground to hold a cold lunch party in the wild, and then he realized that the way of playing was far beyond the cognition of ordinary people.
Zheng Xian could feel that this was a kind of supernatural power, and this warm spring-like feeling was conceived by the power of vitality.
Those who can step into the lawn are similar to the status of Tu Jun, as for the others, they can only watch from the periphery, and they are not qualified to step on the lawn on the ground at all.
An existence like Zheng Xian can set foot here, just like in the past dynastic society, a Han scholar can only set foot in the palace that only the emperor's relatives can set foot in. If it weren't for Zhou Jiaojiao, no matter how hard Zheng Xian tried, it would be impossible to set foot here!
This is the gap caused by birth, and in this world, some things are unfair from the beginning of birth.
Zhou Jiaojiao stretched out her hand and pulled Zhou Meiqi and said with a smile: "Sister, what are you anxious about, sister, I still have something to say." Yo, sister, your palms are sweaty!"
At this time, Tujun can no longer hide, he is a man, even if there is something difficult to solve, he has to come forward to solve it, how can he not let his fiancée stand in front of the wind.
Tu Jun hurriedly walked up to Zhou Jiaojiao, his nose moved, and after making sure that Zhou Jiao was not drinking, he was a little bolder and said: "Zhou Jiao, you are here, my father-in-law and your uncle are also there, go and say hello." ”
Tujun moved Zhou Jiaojiao's uncle out at this time, just to tell Zhou Jiaojiao to know that there are elders, don't be too out of line.
Zhou Jiaojiao's big eyes narrowed slightly, and she saw that Tujun's palms were sweating slightly.
Zhou Jiaojiao is definitely not a woman to mess with, this is the consensus among the eldest grandsons of the Twelve Pillars, so to speak, you can smack the army fiercely, but if you dare to move Zhou Jiaojiao's fingers, you will definitely move your head.
Women are not easy to mess with, and women who practice martial arts are even more difficult to mess with.
Zhou Jiaojiao, who was reminded by Tu Jun, really restrained a little, and said hello to Zhou Fang, who was sitting on the main seat, from a distance.
Zhou Fang is Zhou Meiqi's father and Zhou Jiaojiao's uncle, but Zhou Jiaojiao and this uncle have never dealt with each other, and they rarely have any contact with each other.
Zhou Jiaojiao will be the person in charge of the entire Zhou family in the future, Zhou Fang can only be regarded as the second or even third person, and even after Zhou Jiao takes charge of the Zhou family, she will gradually fade out of the Zhou family's power circle and retire completely.
If you calculate it, in terms of the future, Zhou Jiaojiao doesn't have to care too much about this uncle, but as far as Zhou Jiaojiao has not yet reached the top of the Zhou family, Zhou Jiaojiao definitely can't get too stiff with this uncle who is second only to Zhou Jiaojiao's father.
Zhou Fang's leg was broken three times when he was young, and if he hadn't been treated with vitality, he would have had to amputate his leg a long time ago, so under normal circumstances, Zhou Fang is in a wheelchair, and if he can not walk, he will not walk.
And the one who was able to break Zhou Fang's leg three times was the old lady of the Zhou family, the reason is very simple, bet!
With the family background of the Zhou family, whether Zhou Fang is involved in drugs or pornography, there is no problem, even if a person takes drugs from the beginning of his birth, until he is a hundred years old, the Zhou family can completely manage it, and it is not a big deal if he can't lose the family property, even if Zhou Fang is the ten daughters every day and night, from birth to old age and death, it is not a problem, the Zhou family can manage it as well.
There is one thing that the Zhou family can't manage, and no family in the world can afford to control it, that is, gambling!
Gambling is a bottomless pit, and no matter how big the family background is, it seems vulnerable in front of the gambling word!
Besides, taking drugs and playing with women is a physical thing, and if you play with it, you will play yourself to death, but gambling is different, and the loser is only in an instant, especially when others have mental calculations and unintentional, the situation is even worse.
Gambling can even corrupt people's souls.
Therefore, in front of the twelve families, they are not afraid of anything, and there is only one gambling word that future generations must not dabble in, and once they do, they will be severely punished.
Whether Zhou Jiaojiao can come this time or not, there is a hot gamble outside, but none of the children of the twelve major families dare to participate in it.
In this regard, Zhou Fang is a living example, and major families often use Zhou Fang to teach their children a lesson.
From the beginning of gambling, whether it is slot machines, or dice pai gow, mahjong poker, all gambling tools have never lost once, this is not that others let Zhou Fang, but Zhou Fang's brain is indeed quite good, nearly twice as developed as ordinary people, the intelligence level of ordinary people, to eighty is normal, Zhou Fang's IQ has reached two hundred and fifteen, which is definitely a very terrifying number.
All the things that need to be calculated, he only needs to look at it once, he can find the key inside, calculate the changes in the game, except for the Russian roulette, which requires a very high level of luck gambling equipment, basically all the doors.
Since Zhou Fang started to gamble, he has indeed never lost!
However, just because you haven't lost in the gambling game doesn't mean you won't lose anywhere else!
Zhou Fang has always gambled under a pseudonym, dressed up in disguise, and was quite careful, but in the end, he was discovered by the old lady Zhou and directly broke Zhou Fang's leg bone for the first time.
Zhou Fang raised in bed for a year, and then stopped for a year.
The next year, he went to gamble again and broke his leg bone for the second time.
After raising it for two years, Zhou Fang went to gamble again in the fourth year, but his leg bone was broken again.
These three injuries were added to the injury, Zhou Fang's legs were completely unusable, and he was not flexible in his legs and feet, and it became a luxury to gamble, and since then, Zhou Fang has indeed been honest and has never gambled again. Began to concentrate on the family business. The family's business is well organized, and I don't know how many wealthy families have been swallowed by the belt.
And why Zhou Fang, who was calculating, was caught by Old Lady Zhou one after another, this secret is unknown, there are many rumors in the market, but I am afraid that only insiders know it.
However, the most ferocious one is that the old lady Zhou has the intention of handing over a large mess of the Zhou family to Zhou Fang, after all, Zhou Fang is too smart, and if the Zhou family is in the hands of Zhou Fang, it will definitely be able to carry it forward.
And the boss of the Zhou family, Zhou Pu, seems too mediocre, Zhou Fang was arrested, it is said that he has something to do with Zhou Pu, and it is precisely because of this rumor that Zhou Jiaojiao and this uncle have not been very close.
Anyway, Zhou Fang was beaten into a cripple, and Zhou Pu was the most direct beneficiary.
However, the two brothers Zhou Pu and Zhou Fang didn't seem to have any suspicions, they often got together, and Zhou Fang helped Zhou Pu do a lot of great things, so over time, these rumors dissipated with the wind. Only the older generation is full of doubts from time to time.
Tujun gave up Zhou Jiaojiao to marry Zhou Pu's girl Zhou Meiqi, Zhou Jiaojiao disagreed with this matter 10,000, but for others, it is the most normal thing, after all, Zhou Jiaojiao is the grandson of the Zhou family, and the Zhou family has gone unlucky, Zhou Pu and Zhou Fang's two brothers have given birth to a bunch of daughters, Zhou Pu gave birth to a son at the age of forty-four, but unfortunately died before the age of three.
Therefore, Zhou Jiaojiao must marry a son-in-law who is inverted, Tujun will not intervene in the door, Zhou Jiaojiao is willing to marry into the Tu family and give up the power of the Zhou family, but this kind of thing is not something that can be done by personal wishful thinking.
Zhou Fang smiled at Zhou Jiaojiao, turned his wheelchair and came to Zhou Jiaojiao, because of the lack of exercise and the relatively little sunlight he saw, Zhou Fang's face was always unnaturally fair, and it looked like the flesh on his body was soft and fat.
Zhou Fang is just like the meat on his body, always soft, without a trace of anger, Zhou Jiaojiao didn't come to his side to say hello, he turned his wheelchair and came over, and said with a smile: "Big niece, you're not here to tear down your sister, right?"
Zhou Jiaojiao really didn't have a seizure in front of Zhou Fang, let go of Zhou Meiqi's arm that was pulling, rolled her eyes and said, "Uncle, where did you say it? I came to congratulate Meiqi." ”
"I also prepared a big gift for Meiqi! Zheng Xian, do you say yes? ”
Zheng Xian didn't speak at all, ignoring Zhou Jiaojiao at all, because his eyes were still staring at the middle-aged man with extraordinary taste and fashionable clothes in the distance like nails.
