Chapter 118 Yingying, happy homecoming



"What is she going to do?"

Everyone looked at Yue Weimo in confusion.

"Ms. Yue, what are you doing? Get out of the way and don't delay us from watching the most exciting third round of competition."

The ancients lacked entertainment, especially for ladies and young ladies. Their greatest pleasure was undoubtedly planting flowers, raising grass, doing housework, playing the piano, etc.

Without a valid reason, he rarely even leaves the harem.

Not to mention watching an archery performance openly like today.

Therefore, everyone watched with great interest, even if they were just watching for fun as an outsider, like most gentlemen, they were full of anticipation for the results of the comparison test.

Everyone was talking at once, asking Yue Weimo to get out of the way quickly and not delay things.

Yue Weimo smiled brightly and flipped the tray over, placing it in front of the elderly ladies in the first row. "Come on, let's place our bets! Since this is a competition, and the Prince and the Duke have already promised rewards, why shouldn't we ladies join in?"

"The tray is divided into four columns, representing target one, target two, target three, and target four. Ladies, bet on whichever target you think will be the winner. Later, the winner not only gets to get his or her belongings back, but also gets to share the belongings of all the losers. How about that?"

Yue Weimo is undoubtedly bold.

A gambling game was openly set up in front of kings, princes, generals and ministers.

The timid ones simply drew their heads back, not daring to respond. However, Old Madam Qi laughed and said cheerfully, "This little monkey is the most courageous of all the women in the capital. She's even taking a gamble by coming out to attend the banquet?"

Yue Weimo wasn't afraid at all and smiled cheerfully, "Oh, let's play. It's such a great atmosphere, and it's not a big bet. Everyone can just pick up a random item, like a hairpin, jade pendant, or bracelet. It's a small bet for fun, and we can give a little prize to the warrior who wins later."

Mrs. Yue died young, and Yue Weimo was raised by his father with great care. He has a somewhat boyish personality, and everyone in the capital knows it, so no one is surprised by it now.

Even her father, Yue Xuanfeng, was not very angry and just gave her a symbolic scolding.

"Wei Mo, stop messing around!"

"Master Yue, please don't be too harsh. Weimo is just a child, and I think her suggestion is a good one. Instead of just watching, we women should get involved. Nanny Tang, go get a jade ruyi as my stake."

Nanny Tang was quick, so soon the first prize appeared on Yue Weimo's tray.

She quickly pulled out a hairpin and put it in as her own.

With the host's old lady taking the lead, the others had no scruples and offered their winnings one after another. The main reason was that they had never played like this before and it was quite interesting.

Of course, there are also people who insist on not participating. Some ladies and their families only participate in one share symbolically.

But even so, one tray was not enough to hold all the prizes, so in the end they divided it into four trays, one for each target.

The third and fourth targets attracted the most bets.

Because Jiang Yuanlang had already exposed himself just now, the four lions seemed to be no different, but careful people could still recognize them. With the absolute strength of the generations of military generals in the Jiang Guogong Mansion, it would be better to trust the family background instead of flying around like a headless fly.

As for those shooting at four targets, needless to say, they took the lead in the second round.

Just when the bets were almost placed and Jiang Ying felt that the third match, which was quite interesting, was about to begin, Yue Weimo suddenly ran up to her with a smile.

"Sister Jiang Ying, you haven't placed your bet yet."

Jiang Ying was stunned. "I...I don't have to get off, right?"

The three people on the field were her brothers. She was not so stupid as to be beyond redemption. As soon as Jiang Yuanlang appeared, she knew that Jiang Yuanyi and Jiang Yuanchen must be among the other three.

I was really touched by their thoughtfulness.

But who should I bet on? We are both human, so it’s not right to be partial.

But Yue Weimo just kept pestering her, "Sister Jiang Ying, hurry up, you are the protagonist today, if you don't place your bet, the third round will not even start!"

I don’t know if it was Jiang Ying’s illusion, but I always felt that the four people on the stage seemed to be waiting for her decision and had no intention of starting.

This really made Jiang Ying feel a bit embarrassed. "Why not just forget it? I haven't decided who to vote for yet."

"We all just throw randomly, it depends on luck."

"Yes, yes, Miss Jiang, please vote quickly. The competition should end sooner so that we can see the true colors of the other three remaining contestants."

Some people couldn't help but urge. Winning or losing is one thing, but everyone is more eager to take off the veil.

It was indeed difficult for Jiang Ying to make a decision. She was in a dilemma about who to choose. Just when she was considering not shooting at any of her brothers, or shooting at four targets with her eyes closed, Yue Weimo had already taken the lead and pulled out a hairpin from her head.

Of course it wasn't the one she was wearing in her bun today.

He casually threw in the fourth tray and said, "Since Sister Jiang Ying is so conflicted, let's do the same as me and shoot at four targets."

Jiang Ying, “…”

Jiang Yuanyi, Jiang Yuanchen, and Jiang Yuanlang on the stage had been looking forward to the result, but they were not convinced and snorted coldly to express their dissatisfaction.

Yan Zhuo certainly knew what they were dissatisfied with. These three weirdos, how could they be so grown up, still competing for their sister's favor?

In the end, Ying'er voted for him.

He doesn't care whether it's sincere or coincidental, as long as you vote for him, it's good.

But this made him a little troubled. On the one hand, he had promised not to compete with the three Jiang brothers for the Sword of Dawn, but on the other hand, he couldn't lose Ying'er's hairpin.

"Ahem." At this time, Yue Weimo cleared his throat and said, "Four warriors, after the competition is over, the winner can choose one prize from each of the four trays, which means a total of four. The three losers can also each choose one from their own prizes. The others will be divided up by the winning party. After all, these are personal belongings of the women, so it's not appropriate to ask the men to take them all, so as to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. The four warriors should understand, right?"
