Chapter 187 Landlord
Immediately afterwards, Ou Zilong rolled up his clothes and prepared to wash Su Meng's feet.
Su Meng was a little flattered and asked: "You want to wash my feet?"
"Yes, it's only natural for a husband to wash his wife's feet!"
There was nothing wrong with what he said, but Su Meng just felt it was inappropriate.
"Why don't I wash it myself? It's embarrassing for you to wash it for me."
"What's there to be embarrassed about? I'm your husband, not a stranger. Don't worry, I will be gentle and won't hurt you."
"But……"
Ou Zilong didn't give her a chance to say anything and just put her feet in the basin.
While washing her feet, I gave her a massage to relieve the pain from climbing.
"How is it? Is the strength okay?"
At this moment, Ou Zilong suddenly transformed into a foot washing massage technician.
"Yeah, it's quite comfortable. I didn't expect you to have this skill. It seems I underestimated you."
"Your husband knows a lot more. You will find out later."
Ou Zilong was not bragging when he said this, except for not being able to have children, he knew many things, and even if he didn't know something, he was willing to learn.
I have to say that the men of the Ou family are really outstanding.
After Ou Zilong washed Su Meng's feet, the two of them had a nice nap.
Fortunately, Ou Zilong had the foresight to soak Su Meng's feet in advance, so after waking up, she did not feel any soreness in her calves.
At around four o'clock, the kitchen started to get busy. Because today is New Year's Day, we would naturally have a big dinner tonight.
Although the Ou family has good food and can eat whatever they want every day, the meaning of New Year's Eve is completely different.
Most of the servants stayed at the Ou family to celebrate the New Year, because starting tomorrow (which is the first day of the new year), there will be many guests coming to the Ou family to pay New Year's greetings, so there will definitely be a need for servants at home to entertain the guests.
Of course, the Ou family would not treat them unfairly.
During the Chinese New Year period, Lin Zhenzhu paid them five times the usual salary.
Not only that, they can also receive big red envelopes from Lin Zhenzhu, and most of the guests who come to the Ou family to pay New Year's greetings will also give them red envelopes.
After the Chinese New Year, they can get half a year's salary, so most people are willing to stay. After all, who can resist money?
Dinner was prepared by the servants and the chef. Zhao Yunxi was pregnant and could not overwork, otherwise she would have preferred to prepare a New Year's Eve dinner for her family.
It was boring for Su Meng to do it alone. Plus, she was tired from hiking today, so she was too lazy to move and just sat there waiting for food.
At half past six, everyone sat together in the restaurant to eat the New Year’s Eve dinner.
Lin Zhenzhu's family of six sat at one table, and the servants sat at another table.
Lin Zhenzhu was smiling from ear to ear today and was very happy.
In the past New Year’s Eve dinner, there were only three of them, grandparents and grandchildren, eating at the same table, which seemed a bit lonely.
But this year, the number of people has doubled, and by the same time next year, there will continue to be new people. By then, their table will be full of people, which makes me happy just thinking about it.
After dinner, Lin Zhenzhu gave New Year's red envelopes to all the servants. The servants who received the red envelopes were all ecstatic.
Ou Zichen's family of three and Ou Zilong and his wife also received red envelopes from Lin Zhenzhu.
Ou Zilong and Su Meng are married, so it is only natural that they should give Zhao Jiaying a red envelope.
Ou Zilong gave Zhao Jiaying two big red envelopes at one time, one of which was a New Year's red envelope. The other one was a matchmaker red envelope to thank Zhao Jiaying for bringing him and Su Meng together.
Although the process was not smooth, the current result is still quite good.
At least starting this year, he is a married man with a family. He no longer has to be a single dog and watch others show their love and affection every day.
Happiness is just that simple!
Holding the thick and big red envelope, Zhao Jiaying was extremely happy. This should be the biggest red envelope she had received since she was born.
At eight o'clock, the Spring Festival Gala officially began.
Normally, at this time, the whole family should sit in front of the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
However, in the southern region, people's enthusiasm for watching the Spring Festival Gala is not as high as that of people in the northern region.
Young people, in particular, are even less interested.
Therefore, only two older people, Lin Zhenzhu and Mrs. Liu, would sit in front of the TV to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
However, Ou Zichen and his friends were not idle either. Several of them sat around a small table in the living room playing poker.
Because we have to wait until midnight and after the New Year’s opening fireworks before we can go to bed, which still leaves us three or four hours. Wouldn't it be boring if you don't find something to do and just wait like this?
They played the game of Landlord.
Landlord is a game for three people, and there are five of them, so only a few of them can take turns playing.
The loser will have a white note put on his head so that in the end, we will know who the big winner and who the big loser is.
The game begins.
First, Ou Zichen, Ou Zilong and Zhao Jiaying started playing.
They did not adopt the form of dealing cards, but rather drawing cards.
Ou Zilong touched the card first, followed by Zhao Jiaying, and finally Ou Zichen, and so on, each person took turns to touch one.
Ou Zilong drew a big ghost on his first card, so he said proudly: "It seems that my luck is pretty good today..."
Ou Zichen hit him directly: "It's useless to rely on luck alone, playing cards also depends on skills."
Zhao Jiaying spoke for her dad.
"That's right, Second Uncle, don't be too happy too soon, you might be the one who loses the most tonight."
This made Ou Zilong unhappy.
"Yingbao, it's a little early for you to say that. The game has just begun, and we don't know who will win or lose in the end!"
Ou Zilong said this with confidence, because he had a good hand in the first round. So he believed that his luck tonight would definitely be very good.
His first hand had two big and small ghosts, a 2-flash, a pair of Ks, three 3s, 456788, a 10 and a Q.
Ou Zilong decisively called the landlord, because he thought that as long as he had a 9 and a J in his hand, he would surely win.
Ou Zichen and Zhao Jiaying did not fight for the position of landlord, so Ou Zilong became the landlord firmly.
I got three hole cards with full confidence, but when I looked at them, there was no 9, but two 4s and a J.
Now that’s better! I feel like my wishful thinking was wrong. I may not win with these cards. But then he thought that Ou Zichen and Zhao Jiaying's cards might not be good, because he had the big and small ghosts and four 2s, and the biggest card in their hands was an A, and maybe they didn't even have a bomb in their hands.
