They also suggested that there should be a punishment for playing cards, so they decided to stick a small note on the face of the loser.
Two people in a group, Xia Jin and Gu Jingmo in one group, and Big Brother Xia and his two in one group. Before playing cards, Second Brother Xia even said something harsh:
"Xiao Jin, don't blame me for being ruthless. If you don't join me, I can tell you that I am unbeatable in our village."
"I won't show you any mercy when the time comes. If you get covered in notes, don't come crying to me."
When Xia Jin heard him say this, he rolled his eyes and said mockingly:
"I don't believe you're really that good. Are you just bragging to me? Or are the people in your village not that skilled?"
"Or maybe they're just giving in to you because you're young. If you say you're that capable, I don't believe it."
"Besides, how could I be afraid of you when I have my own Ah Jing? Who knows who will get covered in stickers then."
After hearing what he said, Brother Xia pointed at them and said, "Okay, since you don't believe it, let's give it a try. But don't cry when the results come out."
"I defeated them with my own strength. I'm so strong, why do I need them to give in? Let's just give it a try."
Just at this time, Brother Xia also found where their family’s cards were placed.
As I walked out, I saw undercurrents between my younger brother and sister. Both of them were eager to try. If I didn't know that they were about to play cards, I would have thought that they had encountered something important.
The three of them cleaned up the table, made some space for playing, and then started playing. They played the simplest one.
As expected, Xia Erge and his friends won the first game, because Xia Jin and Gu Jingmo rarely played cards, so they were a little unfamiliar with it.
After winning the first round, Xia Yanbing said to them happily, "Look, look, I told you guys you couldn't do it. As expected, I won the first round."
"Xiao Jin, how is it? Your second brother didn't lie to you, did he? I'm quite good at this."
While shuffling the cards, Xia Jin said to him, "This is only the first round. Maybe your victory was just luck. Let's play a few more rounds to see whether you are really capable or just lucky."
"Okay, let's continue reading. But if you lose, you'll definitely be punished by getting a note."
He was afraid of Gu Jingmo. If he put the sticker on his face, Gu Jingmo would stand up and hit him, so he gave it to his eldest brother and he put it on Xia Jin.
He didn't do anything bad with this sticker, he just stuck it on one side of Xia Jin's cheek, then looked left and right and said:
"No, I'm going to win another round with you, and then I'll put one on the other side of your face, otherwise it won't look good because of the asymmetry."
After hearing what he said, Xia Jin rolled her eyes at him and thought to herself, "You won't be able to win soon. When I win, I will teach you a lesson."
Soon, several people started the second round. After Xia Jin and Gu Jingmo became familiar with the rules, they were no longer able to compete with Brother Xia and the others.
Although they may not have played cards for as long as them, they have an advantage now. They can both remember the cards, especially Gu Jingmo. After what happened today, Xia Jin discovered that he has a photographic memory.
Being able to remember the cards at the poker table is equivalent to cheating, so as expected, they won the game.
Xia Jin looked at his second brother's bitter face and said with a smile, "It seems that you are not that good now. We still won this round. I have already thought about where to post the note."
After saying that, she took the note and stuck it right on the center of his forehead. Then she said, "I'm going to put a circle on your face and take a picture as a souvenir."
Feeling the note on his forehead and hearing what his sister said, Xia Yanbing said disdainfully:
"My brother and I let you win the last round, but you won't be able to win the next one."
Xia Jin did not refute him. After all, he would know whether they could win when the time came. Sure enough, in the next few games, neither he nor his elder brother won a single game.
As more and more notes were stuck on his face, Brother Xia's fighting spirit became more and more high. After all, looking at his sister with a bright smile on her face, he wanted to teach her a lesson.
After a few rounds, they still hadn't used it. Xia Erge said with some difficulty:
"Didn't you say you had never played before? How could you be so good? Did you two communicate with each other?"
"If you want to know, I won't tell you. This is a secret between us."
Brother Xia looked at his silly brother, with a note stuck on half of his face, and said to him helplessly:
"Can't you see? Jingmo can remember cards, and Xiaojin should be able to too. So it's normal for both of us to lose."
After hearing his eldest brother's boast, Second Brother Xia said in disbelief: "Really? This is the first time I've seen someone who can remember cards. No wonder I always lose."
"If people like you go to a casino, you'll definitely be in your element and make a lot of money."
When Brother Xia heard what his brother said, he scolded him, "How come you've been there? You're quite brave."
"No, no, I just heard about it when I was going out. I'm not going. I don't have much money. I heard that if you're not careful, you can lose everything."
"I need to save money to buy a house and get married, so I won't give money to people like them."
After hearing what his brother said, Brother Xia nodded with relief and said:
"Just remember what you said. If I find you in there, I'll break your legs."
"I know, I know, brother, let's not talk about that. Let's continue. I still don't believe it. What's the use of memorizing cards? I can definitely beat them with my superb card skills."
The group had been searching for a few rounds, but before they had finished, Aunt Xia and the others arrived.
Not only them, but also my cousin who just got married and her whole family.
Normally, the whole family could come or not, but they came along anyway.
As soon as Aunt Xia entered the room, she saw her two nephews, whose faces were covered with notes. She looked at them and said with a smile:
"Oh my, you lost the card game! You two are in such a bad situation! How could you lose so much?"
After finishing, he looked down at their faces, and then looked at them, with only one smile on their faces and said:
"You two only said this once, and you're pretty impressive. Yan Bing, you're no match for him. Look at him, and then look at you."
