Send the gods to heaven on Chinese New Year's Eve, and wait for the fourth day of the new year to get up early and prepare to welcome the gods back to earth.

He Xiaoqiao had no experience in this area, so the receiving god was prepared with the help of the elderly servant women in the house.

First prepare the three animals and fruits, gold incense candles and cannons, and then burn incense to welcome the gods to descend, pour wine and sacrifice, and then fire cannons and burn gold to show welcome. Finally, kneel and kowtow to pray to the gods to protect the family and have a safe year.

There is also a folk legend that the fifth day of the first lunar month is the birthday of the God of Wealth, so after the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, each family should also set up a banquet to celebrate the birthday of the God of Wealth.

Although He Xiaoqiao has never participated in this kind of ceremony, as a businessman, he still can't help but recite two sentences of 'God of Wealth bless' devoutly!

After the fifth day of the first lunar month, the business of the gambling house began to gradually get on track.

Until the Lantern Festival, two Class A VIP cards have been sent out, five Class B VIP cards have been issued, and Level C has the most, a total of eleven.

The response of the playing cards is also good, under the vigorous promotion of Liao Steward and those guys, a pass of ten to hundred, now everyone knows that there is a new gambling equipment in the rich gambling house is very interesting, even people who do not often gamble will come in to play two because of curiosity.

The gambling house business has always been in a thriving state.

The iron should be struck while it is hot, so He Xiaoqiao seized the opportunity to briefly mention the concept of modern slot machines to Steward Liao, and asked Steward Liao to help find someone to explore.

Originally, she wanted to go to Master Zheng of Double Happiness Carpenter Shop to make this thing, but Master Zheng frowned when he saw the drawings, and after half a day, he reluctantly took the drawings of the Monopoly Turntable and pushed the work of the slot machine, only saying that he couldn't make such a fine thing. So He Xiaoqiao could only come to Steward Liao to discuss it to see if he could find a better skilled craftsman.

Steward Liao's hands were shaking excitedly, and in his opinion, the slot machines on the paper had already begun to crackle and spit out silver!

He Xiaoqiao was quite calm, but thinking of the profits that these two things could bring, the corners of his mouth were smiling when he drank tea.

Think about it, the sound of dozens or hundreds of slot machines spinning, stopping and dropping coins will definitely become the most classic background music of Nirvana Casino.

And in terms of the number of games or the total amount of money staked, slot machines have become the most popular casino game in modern times, and as long as they are managed properly, they are believed to have been very popular in ancient times.

The two cooks in charge of the meal have been found, an old man and a young man.

The old one's name is Wang Daer, I heard that he used to work in a big restaurant, he has a general's belly, his expression is a little arrogant, he wears a uniform and a high hat, he does have a bit of a modern chef's style.

He Xiaoqiao tried the dishes and desserts he made, and the taste was still good.

As for the younger one, his name is Cai Zhiming, about twenty-three or fourteen years old, he looks a little yellow and thin, and he has a shy smile on his face all the time, and he seems to be a little cramped and uneasy. Although the cooking skills are not as good as the fat ones, Shengzai is always smiling and works very diligently.

He Xiaoqiao was quite satisfied with these two people, but after all, it was the hearts of the people who separated their stomachs, and she had to inspect them for a while if she wanted to hand over the fresh dishes in her hand.

As for the matter of recruiting female partners, He Xiaoqiao later went back and thought about it, but decided to press it down first and talk about it later.

probably thought that this decision was more shocking, and when she said the words to suppress this matter first, she obviously saw that Steward Liao was relieved.

After saying the matter, he took some money out of the account room, He Xiaoqiao walked out of the gambling house, nodded to the two strong men who were still expressionless at the door, and took Hong Fang Baishou to go back together.

Passing by a grain shop in the middle, He Xiaoqiao couldn't help but buy more than a dozen catties of glutinous rice flour on a whim, as well as red beans, mung beans and peanuts and sesame seeds, and planned to pinch the rice balls to eat during the Lantern Festival tomorrow.

After paying the boss, the group of three was about to go out, but as soon as he stepped out of the door, He Xiaoqiao saw a flower in front of him, and a black shadow was firmly blocked in front of him.

"What are you doing ...... Hong Fang?"

"Ahh The short exclamation was followed by the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

He Xiaoqiao's mouth opened slightly, and when he subconsciously looked down, he saw that a vegetable basket was smashed right next to Hong Fang's big feet, and the vegetables and fruits in it had rolled to the ground, and even a few golden silk plums fell out of the paper bag and jumped to the side of the road.

What's going on?

He Xiaoqiao, who almost didn't have time to think, and his mind was full of curiosity, he hurriedly leaned over and looked out from the side, and saw the situation clearly at a glance.

Hong Fang was actually holding a tall woman in his arms, and it was a young girl.

Of course, this is not what surprised He Xiaoqiao, what surprised her even more was ...... The girl actually looked directly at Hong Fang without fear, and the latter also looked back with the same hot gaze, and the eyes of the two were glued together, inseparable.

Sweet pink bubbles seemed to start floating in the air.

Not only did He Xiaoqiao drop his jaw, but even Bai Capital almost bulged his eyes.

Is this the legendary rhythm of love at first sight?

"Ahem!" After clearing his throat and finally calming down, He Xiaoqiao looked ahead, and patted Hong Fang's shoulder with a fan, "That, I have no intention of disturbing you to continue to look at each other affectionately, but now you are still on the street, you ......" Nu Nu with his chin pointed at the passerby who was pointing here, He Xiaoqiao looked at the girl who seemed to be a little familiar, "Do you want to change to a place with fewer people before hugging?" ”

As soon as she heard this, the girl finally came back to her senses, turned her head and saw He Xiaoqiao, who was dressed in men's clothes, suddenly blushed, let go of the hand holding Hong Fang's shirt and took a few steps back, but forgot that there were still vegetables on the ground, and as soon as her feet slipped, the whole person fell backwards.

"Be careful!"

He Xiaoqiao subconsciously blurted out that Hong Fang had already reached out quickly and pulled the person back.

So when everyone came back to their senses, the pair of men and women who seemed to be calling were posted together with a sense of idol drama - if it wasn't at the door of the food store, and there weren't so many onlookers watching the scenery.

He Xiaoqiao almost gave a big applause for this romantic scene.

I didn't expect this guy Hong Fang to be a blockbuster.

Look at how good the position of the hand is, and eat up all the tofu on the girl's small waist.

"You...... Let me go! Embraced in her arms again, the girl's face turned red and she thumped him the chest.

Hong Fang smirked twice, didn't reply, just squinted, and let go of his hand a little reluctantly.

The girl hurriedly broke free, took a few steps back, didn't even want anything that fell on the ground, lifted the hem of her skirt and quickly lined up the crowd, and rushed out without looking back.

"Not bad!" The crowd waiting to see the show had slowly dispersed, He Xiaoqiao poked Hong Fang's shoulder with a fan with a smile, and teased playfully, "Start when it's time to start, this time is good, brother!" ”

Hong Fang stretched out his hand and grabbed the back of his head, his blue eyes shining, and he said a little shyly, "I...... I don't know why, but I just think she's so good-looking. ”

It's so good-looking, he can't help but want to keep looking at it like this.

"This must be the first time you've been so close to a girl's house, and the girl hasn't been scared away by you, has it?" He Xiaoqiao, who completely forgot that she was also a woman, raised her eyebrows, put her elbow on Hong Fang's arm, and pressed her palm against the side of her face, "Judging from the form just now, that girl was not only not scared away by you, but also seemed to mean something to you...... If you really like her, I can help you find out. ”

Although the girl ran away in a hurry just now, He Xiaoqiao's eyes were poisonous, and she didn't miss the girl's hairstyle on her head.

The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, and judging from the eyes of the two just now, it is clear that Lang has a lover and sister intentions, and there must be a drama when they get together.

"But then again, why do I always think that girl is a little familiar, like I've seen it somewhere?" He Xiaoqiao squinted his eyes and rubbed his chin with his hand to remember.

"I also feel that it seems to be fate...... Hong Fang Niutou echoed the horse's mouth, and secretly glanced at the hand he was holding someone's waist just now, and he couldn't stop silly.

"We've all seen her." has always adhered to the silent but often blockbuster white first sentence points out the truth, "In Yihong Courtyard...... The bustard's mother called her to serve the food. ”

After his explanation, He Xiaoqiao immediately realized, "Yes! That's her! I remember what she seemed to be called...... What kind of flowers? ”

"Honeysuckle!" Hong Fang suddenly spoke, looking a little excited, "That's right, it's her!" It's honeysuckle! ”

"Yes, it's Yinhua!" He Xiaoqiao clapped his hands, and then squinted at Hong Fang with a playful expression, "It's rare that you can remember people's names so clearly, I thought that you only had the girl who fed you wine in your eyes in Yihong Courtyard that day, and you didn't know anything." ”

She didn't think that this guy was straight like a zombie and let the girl in the Qinglou feed the wine, and after shouting excitement, she would remember the delicate little silver flower who only showed her face once.

Hong Fang made He Xiaoqiao so ridiculous that he couldn't speak, and after a long time, he just blushed and said, "I...... I just remembered, I didn't forget. ”

It's really funny to joke with honest people, He Xiaoqiao finally understood why Jiang Fenghao always wanted to rectify Hong Fang - this guy is sometimes really simple and honest, which makes people feel that it is a sin not to bully him once.

But to be honest, the matter of fate is really amazing.

Before, she just thought that Yinhua should be a good girl, but she didn't expect that she would have the day when she looked at Hong Fang - when they were in Yihong Courtyard, the two of them didn't even make eye contact, who would have thought that more than ten days later, they would let God arrange a 'hit bump' and bump out a small spark of love?

Maybe it can't be called a small spark of love yet, but it's absolutely certain that you have a good feeling for each other.

"Now that you know who it is, it's easy to do." Motioning to Hong Fang to pick up all the things that fell on the ground, He Xiaoqiao shook off the fan with a smile, raised his feet and walked towards Zhilan Street, "Let's go, let's send the things back to Yinhua Girl." ”

Of course, this is to let Hong Fang apologize and be familiar, and by the way, ask her what kind of thoughts she has about Hong Fang - of course, it is also necessary to better inquire about Yinhua's identity and background.

Although He Xiaoqiao believes that Hong Fang will not be the kind of person who will dislike other people's backgrounds, after all, he is in a place of right and wrong, what if Yinhua Girl is really forced to 'go to the sea'?

Inquire about her worth clearly, so it's convenient to raise money to redeem people first, right?
