Lu Fan's father brought in three middle-aged couples.
"Uncle, Aunt, you're here." Xiao Xiangbei folded up the one-cent coin his youngest son had won, turned around when he heard the voices, and saw familiar faces.
Xiao Jingsheng, his small hands pressed against his pockets, smiled with his eyes crinkling. He now had a huge sum of 22 cents, and the little miser obediently called out to him.
"Uncle, great aunt."
Shishi and the others were counting money. There were a lot of one- or two-cent coins, a lot of one-dollar coins, but not many ten-dollar bills. It was a thick stack of money.
Mr. Lu raised an eyebrow. "Shishi, am I too late? Is there still time to play?"
The old man said the little girl had done another great service, and they should share in the joy.
This guy has a lot of money.
Shishi looked around and saw that the people who had just come in all had rosy cheeks and healthy complexions, which meant they were obviously not short of money.
Mr. Lu took the initiative to introduce them to her, saying, "These two are your uncle and aunt, they are Comrade Zhang Qingqing's parents."
"These two are Comrade Cui Miaona's parents, and they are Comrade Gu Ying's parents."
"They heard you brought their son-in-law, so they came to see him."
Oh, they're all acquaintances of acquaintances.
After everyone had given their gifts to Old Lady Xiao, Shishi set up the stage again.
“Let’s play again, Xiao Fanzi. Your dad’s here. This time you’re the player and you can choose your own partner.”
"The opponent, well..."
"Little Zhao, Little Deng, you two are in the same group. Your parents-in-law are here, so you'd better do your best."
"Dad Gu, Mom Gu, your son-in-law just performed and lost. It's a good thing you arrived late, otherwise Xiaoyunzi would have been so embarrassed."
Yun Yousheng: ...My first impression of my father-in-law and mother-in-law was ruined by my sister-in-law's beautiful appearance.
Mother Gu smiled, while Father Gu patted his future son-in-law on the shoulder.
It's just a game, don't be so stressed.
Zhao Sheng and Deng Peng, who were called out, immediately felt their scalps tighten. At this moment, they could not say no. The elders had taken the initiative to organize the gathering, and it would be too disrespectful not to participate. They had no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.
Lu Fan chose Zhang Dong as his partner.
The dealer explained the rules: "The left side is Xiao Fanzi and Xiao Zhangzi's group, and the right side is Xiao Zhaozi and Xiao Dengzi's group. The exciting battle of 'skewer' is about to begin."
"There's no cheating this time. Both sides offer a 1-to-1 payout. Place your bets now, the more you bet, the more you lose. I'm a rich woman, I don't care about money."
So that's the game you're playing.
If there was no foul play this time, then was there one just now?
Mr. Lu laughed and took out 13.8 yuan from his pocket, pressing it on the left side. After all, he was his son, so he had to give him some face.
Zhang Qingqing's parents and Cui Miaona's parents both placed bets in support of their son-in-law, while Gu Ying's parents chose Lu Fan's group, each betting 10 yuan.
I lost all my bets earlier, so this time I'm betting based on my gut feeling, hoping to win back whatever I can.
Xiao Jingsheng, the only one who won money, used his left and right hands to play rock-paper-scissors and bet one cent on Lu Fan's group.
Shishi was happily counting, unaware of the winks and smirks from Lu Fan and the other three.
"Sister-in-law, if it's a tie, how do we settle it?" Representative Lu Fan asked.
A draw?
Shishi hadn't thought about this question.
Will it end in a tie?
Lu Fan shrugged. "Who knows? What if?"
That's the problem.
It's a draw, no winner or loser, so how do we settle the money?
Xiao Jingsheng raised his hand, "I'm in the Yuhong class. When we play marbles, a draw means neither of us wins nor loses."
He was still very worried even though he had bet a huge sum of money. It would be best if he won, but it would be good if he neither won nor lost.
Hsiao Ching-sheng's older brother expressed a different opinion, saying, "When I played tag at school, the person who organized the game would say that the loser had to buy an ice cream, and if it was a tie, the person who organized the game would buy an ice cream."
After discussing it, the group decided to seek some excitement and that a tie would be considered a loss for the banker.
Xie Lin knew immediately that Lu Fan and his gang were up on something bad, and he was about to report to his wife when Yun Yousheng and Wang Dahu stopped him.
One person grabbed the person's throat and covered their mouth, while the other grabbed their legs and threw them out.
I just lost a big bet, so this time I bet two, hoping to win it back many times over.
Haha, sister-in-law, you've finally met your match!
Zhou Yan also sensed something was wrong. He nudged his sister's hand with his elbow and was about to exchange a message when Xiao Hezi arrived and carried her away with one hand.
Shishi shrewdly observed the person with "ulterior motives" and nodded in agreement.
He pressed down on the thicker bill on the left side with his hand, and subtly glanced at Chou Chou and Xiao Shi.
The two little brothers held hands and went to the toilet, laughing and joking.
When he came back after "squatting" for two minutes, his friend was already counting money.
"Hahaha, Chou Chou, I won another few dozen yuan. Here, I'll give each of you 10 yuan."
Cooperation fee.
The last three words were left unsaid, but they understood perfectly and happily accepted them.
Chou Chou generously greeted his nephews and nieces, saying, "Little ones, I'll treat you to some soda later."
The young chef wasn't stingy either, saying, "I'll treat you tomorrow."
"Yay, thank you, Chou Chou and Xiao Shi!" the 16 nephews cheered.
Although Lu Fan and Zhang Dong won, they were filled with disbelief and sat on the ground questioning their existence.
We clearly agreed that each group would win one and lose one, thus creating a tie, and I could win money from my sister-in-law, the bookmaker. How come I won against both of them?
Lu Fan defeated Zhao Sheng, and Zhang Dong, who was originally going to lose to Deng Peng, ultimately won.
He swore that he really didn't hit Deng Peng hard, so how did he knock him over?
He deliberately reduced his strength, but suddenly he burst forth with power, as if he had taken a super-strength drug.
No, he felt it was more like seeing a ghost.
Even though he was stunned at the time, he saw it clearly. Deng Peng was in a daze after being knocked to the ground.
Why is he mentally challenged?
