When it comes to ginseng, Changbai Mountain ginseng is the best.
The ginseng in the palace was also tributed from Changbai Mountain. Ginseng that is thousands of years old is the most rare.
When they heard the word Changbai Mountain ginseng, Concubine Xu and Tao Chenghui looked over, wanting to know what kind of ginseng it was.
In the brocade box in Li Liangyuan's hand, there lay a ginseng that looked very much like a radish, and was slightly longer than the woman's palm.
Tao Chenghui was born into a merchant family and had seen a lot of ginseng from Changbai Mountain. She smiled and asked, "Li Liangyuan, this ginseng is good. Is it a hundred years old?"
Although Tao Chenghui's rank was three ranks lower than hers, he had a good relationship with Concubine Shen Liangdi and Concubine Xu. Li Liangyuan also smiled and said, "Tao Chenghui is amazing. This ginseng is less than a hundred years old. My father said it is eighty-eight years old."
"Although a hundred-year-old ginseng is rare, this eighty-eight-year-old ginseng is also rare and good for nourishing the body." Tao Chenghui looked at Shen Chuwei with a smile.
"I'm sorry to have let Li Liangyuan spend the money." Shen Chuwei looked at Chunxi and motioned her to accept it.
Chunxi stepped forward, took the brocade box from Li Liangyuan's hand, and then stepped aside.
Li Liangyuan smiled and said, "It's good as long as Shen Liangdi doesn't mind."
Concubine Xu suddenly turned her head and looked at Shen Chuwei, "Shen Liang Di, now that Li Liangyuan is here, there are four of us, how about we play cards?"
Shen Chuwei had taught them to play cards a few days ago, mainly to entertain her and to kill time when she had nothing else to do.
Shen Chuwei was now idle and glanced at Tao Chenghui and Li Liangyuan, "I have no problem, do you guys want to play?"
"I have no problem either." Tao Chenghui turned his head to look at Li Liangyuan and asked, "Does Li Liangyuan have any problem?"
Interaction is the best way to increase friendship and affection, and Li Liangyuan certainly would not miss the opportunity to interact with them.
"I don't have any problem, but what kind of cards do you play? I don't know how to play."
Concubine Xu put down the melon seeds in her hand, clapped her hands and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do it. It's very simple. We will teach you."
Li Liangyuan agreed readily, "Okay."
Seeing this, Shen Chuwei told Guixiang to take out the cards and put them on the table, and the four of them sat around the dining table.
Concubine Xu and Tao Chenghui took turns teaching Li Liangyuan how to play Landlord.
After teaching for a while and making sure that Li Liangyuan knew how to play, he started playing.
Concubine Xu suggested, "How about playing stickers this time? Each time you lose, you'll get a piece of red paper."
Tao Chenghui agreed immediately, "Okay, this will make it more fun."
Li Liangyuan smiled and said, "I have no objection."
Shen Chuwei had no objection, she also liked playing with stickers because she had never lost~
Concubine Xu called out, "Come on, take the cards."
There are two piles of cards on the table. The top card of one pile is turned over, and whoever gets that card becomes the landlord.
The four people took turns taking cards, and Li Liangyuan became the landlord.
Concubine Xu laughed and said, "Oh, Li Liangyuan is lucky. She is the landlord for the first time."
Li Liangyuan didn't understand. When she heard Concubine Xu say that she was lucky, she really thought that she was very lucky. "No, no, the landlord sisters take turns."
After Tao Chenghui sorted out the cards, he reminded, "The landlord plays his cards."
"Okay." Li Liangyuan looked at the cards in her hand. The landlord could play whatever he wanted. She looked at the 3 of Spades, pulled it out with her fingers and placed it on the table. "I'll play 3."
Concubine Xu: "It's easier to play cards following the landlord. I'll play 5."
Shen Chuwei: "I'll bet 10."
Tao Chenghui: "I'll play A."
"Why did you bet so big?" Li Liangyuan looked at the Ding in his hand and had no chance to bet.
Tao Chenghui smiled and said, "Because you are the landlord, if you don't play big cards, do you think playing small cards will make you run away?"
Li Liangyuan reluctantly drew a card and said, "I'll play 2."
Shen Chuwei, "Xiao Wang."
Li Liangyuan: "Your Majesty."
Shen Chuwei, "Four 7s."
Shen Chuwei chuckled in her heart, but appeared calm on the surface, "3456 is correct."
Li Liangyuan hesitated for a few seconds and still shook her head, "No."
Shen Chuwei, "Three nines with a pair."
Li Liangyuan saw that Shen Chuwei only had one card left in her hand. If she didn't blow up Shen Chuwei, she would leave. She drew out the four-chapter card: "Four kings."
Shen Chuwei shook his head, "No."
Li Liangyuan, "One against four."
Tao Chenghui, "One to two."
Li Liangyuan: "No."
Tao Chenghui: "One 3."

Li Liangyuan saw that there was no chance to play the single ticket, so Tao Chenghui delivered it to her door, "One for 10."
Concubine Xu shook her head and said, "No." She turned to look at Shen Chuwei.
Shen Chuwei chuckled twice, "The last A."
Concubine Xu happily put down the cards in her hand and laughed happily, "Li Liangyuan, you lose."
Li Liangyuan just remembered that Shen Chuwei only had one card. She looked at Concubine Xu in confusion, "Why didn't you stop her?"
"Why should I stop you? The three of us are commoners, and we are here to fight against you, the landlord." Concubine Xu said as a matter of course.
"Oh." Li Liangyuan then realized that she was the landlord and the three of them were fighting against her alone.
"Come on, put on the red paper." Concubine Xu picked up the red paper that had been prepared in advance, dipped it in water, and put it on Li Liangyuan's face.
After Concubine Xu finished pasting, she stared at Li Liangyuan's face for a few seconds and couldn't help laughing, "Okay, keep going."
Li Liangyuan didn't have a mirror and didn't know what her face would look like with the red paper on it, so she had to continue playing.
Li Liangyuan's luck was extremely good, as she was the landlord three times in a row. But it was also not good, as she lost all three times.
Concubine Xu liked to stick red paper on people, and she put it on Li Liangyuan's cheeks and forehead.
Li Liangyuan slumped her shoulders, wondering why she always lost. She looked at the cards in front of her, determined to win this time.
After one round, Li Liangyuan lost again.
Concubine Xu couldn't wait to pick up the red paper, dip it in water, and stick it on Li Liangyuan's nose.
Li Liangyuan lost four times in a row, with red paper all over her face. She was a little impatient and said, "I don't want to play anymore."
Concubine Xu said, "Why? Isn't that how it works when playing cards? There are wins and losses. It's normal that you lost just now."
"But I always lose. Look at my face. Do you still want it?" Li Liangyuan said, pointing at her own face.
Tao Chenghui comforted her, "Li Liangyuan, this is normal. When Shen Liangdi taught us how to play, we both had it all over our faces, more than you did."
Li Liangyuan looked at Concubine Xu in disbelief, "Really?"
Concubine Xu nodded, "Of course it's true. We both played it several times before we figured it out."
Li Liangyuan then continued playing.
After playing for an hour, except for Shen Chuwei who didn't have red paper on her face, the other three of them had different stickers on their faces.
This was the scene that Chang Liangdi saw when she arrived.
She looked at them in surprise, "What are you doing?"
When Li Liangyuan saw Chang Liangdi coming, she felt extremely embarrassed for a moment when she thought of her face covered with red paper. Who knew that Chang Liangdi would actually come to Xiyun Pavilion?
Concubine Xu raised her lips and said, "We are playing cards. Does Chang Liangdi want to play?"
Do you guys know how to play Landlord? It's actually quite fun!
