Chapter 148 Card Game
Chapter 149 Card Game
In the living room of the Meng family, a game of cards was going on.
Fang Qing, Wen Ning and the other two sat around a solid wooden coffee table, each holding a handful of cards in their hands and staring at the cards on the table, but the expressions on their faces were different.
"Master, what does three sixes with two threes mean?" Zicheng held up a handful of cards in his hand. Under the guidance of the old housekeeper, he finally sorted out the cards. However, he was confused by Wang Haihua's series of card-playing moves.
Wen Ning played a card, suppressing Wang Haihua and giving Fang Qing the opportunity to play a card, and then explained to Meng Zicheng how to play this kind of poker.
Wang Haihua on the opposite side saw that Wen Ning was suppressing her without any courtesy, and explained to Zicheng without any hesitation, and even personally sorted out the cards in Meng Zicheng's hand, and finally couldn't help but speak out to dissuade him.
"Hey, I'm telling you, this is a card game, you guys should be serious! Even if he doesn't know how to play, you can't look at his cards..."
But Wen Ning pretended not to hear him. He slowly arranged the cards and put them into Zicheng's hands. "If it wasn't for Zicheng to understand what poker is, do you think I would play with you? If you have any objections, then we won't play."
Hearing this, Wang Haihua was so angry that she held her breath. She was about to open her mouth to fight back but stopped. She finally got a chance to sit so close to Wen Ning, and she was not going to be fooled by him because of this. "I didn't say I have any objections. OK, OK, then, continue, continue!"
Fang Qing didn't know much about playing cards, and she was suppressed by Wang Haihua several times and couldn't play a single card. If Wen Ning hadn't been there to help her, Fang Qing would have lost everything.
But what no one expected was that this little guy Zicheng learned so quickly.
At the beginning, he was just like Fang Qing, and was hit hard by Wang Haihua's cards and couldn't play anything. But after one round, he could actually analyze the cards on the table independently and play them cleverly.
As the sun set, the heavy rain outside the window gradually stopped, and the people fighting on the table in the house finally decided the winner.
Meng Zicheng looked at the scattered banknotes in his arms, his face full of excitement, "Master, I actually won more than 30 yuan."
Wen Ning smiled and pushed the money in his arms towards Fang Qing. He smiled a little when he heard Meng Zicheng's words. "Playing cards is just for entertainment and to relax. You played so well in your first time, which shows that you are very smart. But the teacher hopes that you can use all this energy on studying, and don't let it ruin your ambition."
Meng Zicheng proudly showed the money to the old housekeeper, then showed off for a while and ran back to the house to save it.
At this moment, Wang Haihua no longer had the high spirits she had before playing cards in the morning. She looked at her empty wallet in disbelief. She couldn't believe that she, who had always been invincible, would actually lose all her money one day.
When she looked up, she saw Fang Qing next to her counting the money in her hand with a smile on her face. For some reason, Wang Haihua felt that her beautiful face and sweet smile were very dazzling.
"Why am I the only one who lost money, while you three won?" I Aihua slammed the table, "You... you must be cheating! You three teamed up to cheat me alone!"
Wen Ning rubbed his numb neck, stood up and shook his pants, "In the beginning, it was you who wanted to play, and you also wanted to gamble the money. Now that you lost, you turned your face and refused to admit it. You really can't afford to play."
Wen Ning's words made Wang Haihua feel a little uncomfortable. It was indeed she who took the initiative to arrange this matter, but she didn't expect that these three people were so good at playing cards? They actually won all the money she had!
"I don't care! I've lost all my money. I don't even have the money for the ticket home! You have to give me an explanation!"
Wen Ning had originally planned to go upstairs to rest, but after hearing what Wang Haihua said, he took his foot back. He looked at Wang Haihua with a rare smile, "I do have an idea, do you want to hear it?"
The idea was simple, let the old housekeeper lend her money, and then the two of them would continue to compete.
"As long as you can win three games in a row, and double the money if you don't win a single game, then not only can you get back all the money you lost today, you may even be able to win back the principal you borrowed. How about it, do you want to try it?"
At this moment, Wen Ning was smiling like a cunning fox, and was kindly persuading the dazed Wang Haihua opposite him. Fang Qing looked at this scene and felt that it was very familiar, as if he had seen it on TV somewhere.
At this time, Wang Haihua was also bewildered by Wen Ning's gentle face. She seemed to be trapped in a pink bubble, and her brain was no longer under her control.
She shook her head quickly, and after listening to Wen Ning's words, she thought carefully. Although there was some risk, she had already mastered Wen Ning's card skills. As long as she didn't make any mistakes, it would not be difficult to win three games in a row.
People are often like this. After losing money, once there is a glimmer of hope, a gambler's mentality will suddenly erupt, thinking that as long as they win, they can earn back all the principal and interest.
Wang Haihua was in this state at the moment. She had once been invincible in the village, but this was the first time she had suffered such a big setback in front of others. Whether it was for face or economic considerations, she had to beat Wen Ning.
After everyone had finished dinner, Wen Ning and Wang Haihua began their fight.
After finishing their work, the servants of the Meng family sat on both sides of the card table, watching the competition on the table nervously and excitedly.
At the beginning of the game, Wang Haihua had already won two games in a row, which made her very excited. "Little brother, I have already won two games. If you win another game, all your bets will belong to me. Although I like you very much, I will not show mercy at the poker table. Don't cry when the time comes!"
Wen Ning smiled faintly and asked the old butler to reshuffle the cards, but the direction of this round was completely beyond Wang Haihua's expectations. No matter what cards she played, Wen Ning firmly suppressed her, and Wang Haihua lost the third round.
Although she didn't achieve three consecutive wins, Wang Haihua was not discouraged at all. Winning two games in a row gave her great confidence. Facing the dissuasion of people around her, she didn't care at all and threw out a few more chips in her hand, "Double it!"
The big clock on the wall had already struck nine times, and the servants who were watching had already gone back to rest.
The two people who were still fighting in the living room were in completely different states at this time. Wen Ning had a large pile of chips in his hand, while Wang Haihua, who was opposite him, was looking at the only chip in his hand in distress.
Wang Haihua was sweating profusely and pulling her hair to calculate, but no matter how she calculated, he was clearly aware that he could not win.
As Wen Ning played the last Ace of Hearts, Wang Haihua finally closed her eyes in despair, "You've been playing tricks on me since the beginning."
At this point, if Wang Haihua still doesn't understand, then all her years would have been wasted.
