Chapter 505 Extra: Two Children (Part Two)
After returning home, Yan Xiuer and Lu Ting were playing mahjong with Lu Tian and Yan Ning, the two elders. This was the latest form of entertainment their family had become obsessed with in recent years.
They play classic Sichuan Mahjong and enjoy it immensely.
When the family of four arrived home, they heard Lu Tian's hearty laughter: "Hahaha! I won with a self-drawn pure suit, plus a bonus for the meld!"
Jiaojiao ran excitedly to her great-grandfather's side, "Great-grandfather! You're so lucky today! Everyone gets a share!"
Lu Tianle grinned, "No problem! It's nothing. Come on, you guys, stop looking and hand over the money!"
Yan Ning reluctantly handed over the money, muttering under her breath, "I wonder where you stepped in dog poop this morning..."
Although Yan Xiuer and Lu Ting only went on stage to keep the elderly company, they were already pale and exhausted from their defeat.
It's not that they can't afford to lose, nor that they're broke; it's just that mahjong is a really magical game. Once you sit down at the table, you'll feel that anxiety and urgency when you're having a bad run of luck.
In particular, in this round, Lu Tian won by self-draw after only drawing two tiles, and they hadn't even declared a winning hand yet!
Lu Tian chuckled as he took the money back, then casually stuffed it into Jiao Jiao's hand. "Sweetie, take this and buy some snacks for your little brother!"
Jiaojiao took the money and said, "Okay!" Jiaojiao winked at Zhengzheng, and the two siblings ran outside.
Once outside, they didn't buy any snacks, but instead divided up their money.
Jiaojiao skillfully counted the money. "It's a total of one hundred and fifty yuan. I was the one who asked for it this time, so I get seven and you get three. That makes one hundred and five yuan for me and forty-five yuan for you. Here you go."
Zhengzheng frowned. "Your way of dividing it..."
Jiaojiao didn't even look up. "Is there a problem?"
Zhengzheng pursed her lips. "Before, I split it equally with you!"
Hearing this, Jiaojiao awkwardly tugged at her lips, "Well... I'm short on money lately! Let's split it like this for now, please let me have a turn!"
Zhengzheng looked displeased. Who isn't short of money these days? And who doesn't know what the other is thinking? They're twins!
Seeing Zhengzheng's disapproving expression, Jiaojiao's face also turned serious. It seemed that the money wouldn't be going to end up in her bag today...
The two stared at each other, neither willing to back down, each waiting for the other to give in first.
Outsiders would never guess that these two children of the Lu family, born with silver spoons in their mouths, would engage in a psychological battle over a few dozen yuan.
Both children are short of money lately. Although the family is not short of money, they have always been strict with them and rarely give them much pocket money.
Therefore, judging from the money the two children have, they may not be as wealthy as a child from a middle-class family.
They didn't originally need that much money, since they ate and lived at home, but recently, they've all made their own little plans, and money has become especially important to them.
However, they did not intend to tell their families about this plan, so they did not plan to ask their families for money and could only accumulate it slowly through other channels.
Besides occasionally taking a little money from Lu Tian and Yan Ning for gambling, they also had their own side businesses.
