Chapter 199: I'm so lucky I lost all my underwear
Prefect Liu paused, his heart in turmoil, but he appeared calm on the surface: "No. Alright, you guys go back first. From now on, you must not oppose Huaxianglou again. No, you must not oppose the Luo family again!"
Late at night, at the gate of Magistrate Liu’s residence.
Shopkeeper Xu sighed, as if he was at a loss. "Brother Liu, tell me what we should do next. I'll listen to you."
Master Liu also frowned, "How about, just forget it?"
Who would have thought that the other party knew the prince of Huai? Isn't it said that the relationship between Prince Huai and Luo Wangfu is not harmonious?
How come this prince and Madam Zhu are having such a pleasant conversation?
Upon hearing this, Shopkeeper Xu's forehead jumped sharply. It's fatal!
"Then do you think the Luo family will bear grudges? What we have done recently has already offended them thoroughly."
He thought that this would make Master Liu take the bait, but he actually gave him a deep look and said, "It's you, Tianxianglou, who have been targeting the Luo family. I just said a few gossips. Don't try to drag me into it."
grass!
Shopkeeper Xu cursed inwardly, but still endured it.
He was helpless: "Brother Liu, we have known each other for many years, and you miss me so much, ah..."
Seeing his sincere and hurt expression, Master Liu felt bad too, so he said, "Guancheng is so big anyway, it's just a restaurant, let the Luo family open it first, maybe it will close soon."
"Besides, how long can Prince Huai stay in Guancheng? We will have plenty of opportunities in the future."
Hearing the latter part of the sentence, which was quite reasonable, Shopkeeper Xu felt a little comforted.
The Liu Mansion behind him was caught in a storm of quarrels.
In the main courtyard, just as the wife of the prefect was about to take a rest, Prefect Liu strode in through the door, and the maids couldn't stop him.
The prefect's wife lifted the curtain, waved her hand to let them go first, and then looked at Liu Tianhai, who had an angry face.
"Why did you go there without informing me about what happened today?!"
A suppressed questioning voice came, and the prefect's wife laughed: "I can go wherever I want. Why do I have to ask for your permission?"
Prefect Liu taunted, "You promised me that very day, but now, when did even the virtuous wife of the prefect start to regret her promise?!"
The prefect's wife was not angry. Instead, she calmly said something that touched people's hearts: "Liu Tianhai, keeping your promise depends on the person. You are not worthy of it now!"
Governor Liu was furious: "What do you mean by that?"
The prefect's wife laughed and said, "Can't you hear it? Ever since the day you took Liu as your concubine, you have been worthless to me. Get out! I want to rest!"
Magistrate Liu had never expected that after more than ten years, she would still be harping on this point. He angrily said, "Jealous woman, you are unreasonable!"
"Yes, I was unreasonable. I shouldn't have asked father to send you down here. He said you could return to the capital in three to five years, but now you've been stuck in the city for thirteen years. I was so blind to come to the city with you, and even delayed Sisi's marriage because of this." The wife of the prefect was gradually getting angry. "If you have the ability, get promoted and go to the capital. If you don't, go back to Aunt Liu's room!"
"You... are simply a shrew!" When someone exposed his inner secret, Governor Liu was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He waved his hand and threw the things on the table to the ground, making a loud bang!
Late at night, the sound of two people arguing was heard in the room, and soon Governor Liu turned around and left.
The maids are coming in to clean up.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow. I need to rest now!"
After hearing these words, the wife of the prefect lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling with her eyes open. Her mind was full of Sisi's future. As for Prefect Liu, she had long forgotten about him.
How can I find a suitable in-law for Sisi?
At worst, she can take people back to the capital alone!
…
The next morning.
The people didn’t know what happened in the restaurant, they only knew that Huaxianglou was successfully opened!
And I heard that there is someone to help me.
Now everyone in the casino is crying like crazy!
"As for the money, I bet ten coins, you should give me a hundred coins."
"Tsk, you think you're so impressive with just ten coins? I made ten taels, a net profit of ninety taels of silver."
"Hey, Dazhuang, you're here too."
"Haha, I told you, Yahua Xianglou is definitely right."
After winning the prize, he knew that Huaxianglou was reliable, and now it turns out that he was right.
"Exchange the money! Where's your boss? Don't even think about hiding!"
The casino manager immediately reported the matter to the owner. Unfortunately, the man was Xu Changqin, the nephew of Manager Xu.
Those with less money just paid some compensation, while those with more money wanted to default on their debts.
But before he could take any action, Luo Xiao brought people to his house to ask for money.
"Mr. Xu, this is my family's betting slip, please pay the money." He said proudly.
Xu Changqin almost vomited blood.
The Luo family is so fucking cunning!
"Why are you standing there? Your casino isn't out of money, is it?" Luo Xiao raised his eyebrows. "If you are, I'll go to Tianxianglou to find Manager Xu."
Xu Changqin: "Wait!"
Looking at the debt collectors who were eager to try behind him, Xu Changqin felt so heartbroken that he felt like bleeding.
He waved.
After a while, a box of silver and money was carried out.
Luo Xiao held the banknote in his hand and smiled complacently: "That's right, it saves us from troubling Manager Xu and maybe even affecting the impression of Tianxianglou in Prince Zhou's mind, right?"
Xu Changqin held his breath, "Isn't Master Luo busy? Could it be that there are no customers at the second store right after it opened, so you have to wait here for me?"
Luo Xiao laughed out loud: "No hurry, I can't cook, why not help the common people here, what if someone is shameless and refuses to exchange silver for them? Everyone, do you think I'm right?"
He stood on the rock next to him and shouted the last sentence to the audience.
This caused everyone to echo: "Yes, Mr. Luo is righteous!"
"I'm going to take the winnings and take my family to Huaxianglou for dinner."
"I'm going too. I could smell the delicious aroma of meat from far away last night!"
Everyone was talking at once, and Manager Chao also exchanged a large sum of silver and money. The group left happily.
When Xu Changqin heard that they were going to spend the money they had just received from him at Huaxianglou, his eyes almost popped out!
regret!
Just a hundred regrets!
We shouldn't have started this game in the first place!
Although those who bet on Tianxianglou also suffered losses, he was the one who suffered the biggest losses!
He had privately pledged to bet five thousand taels, thinking he could earn back fifty thousand taels.
But now even my underwear is gone!
"Mr. Xu, thank you so much!" Luo Xiao watched the last person leave and said hello with great interest, "If there's a game like this again, let's set up more of them! See you later!"
As he said this, he kissed the silver in his hand.
This scene greatly stimulated Xu Changqin's eyes. He couldn't catch his breath and fainted!
