Chapter 350
"Five, six, six, big!" Manager Xu's voice rang out.
Huo Yunzhi stared wide-eyed at Manager Xu, unable to believe that she could have lost.
"Consort Huo, I'm sorry, you lost again." Cheng Qingli looked at Huo Yunzhi, who was standing there in a daze, with a smile on her lips.
You think you can mess with her?
Huo Yunzhi's lips trembled, wanting to say something, but she couldn't utter a word.
Just moments ago, she was thanking Cheng Qingli with a smug look on her face, offering to give all those things to her. Now, well, all those things have become Cheng Qingli's.
Cheng Qingli waved the two land deeds belonging to Huo Yunzhi in her hand triumphantly. Although she didn't lack these things, she wouldn't accept something offered to her for free.
Besides, surely no one would complain about having too much wealth?
At this moment, Huo Yunzhi's eyes were red as she looked at the smug Cheng Qingli, wishing she could go up and scratch the little bitch's face until it was covered in bruises.
But she couldn't.
"Consort Huo, want to play again? There's one more round. Now, our chances are equal, aren't they? You still have a 50% chance of beating me, but—" Cheng Qingli deliberately dragged out her words, but she didn't say what the "but" was.
Huo Yunzhi's hand loosened and tightened, then tightened and loosened again.
She wanted to give up, but she was unwilling. Although she didn't think the two land deeds were of any use, Huo Yunzhi didn't want to let Cheng Qingli have them so easily, since they could please Prince Lan Huai.
After all, she knew perfectly well that if she could give birth to the eldest son for Prince Lan Huai as soon as possible, her status in the Prince Lan Huai's mansion would definitely rise accordingly.
Although the Prince of Lanhuai's mansion had many women, only one or two of them actually bore him children.
If she could give birth to a son, even if her son couldn't inherit the royal family in the future, at least her position in the royal family would be secure. In the future, her child could also help her younger brother.
Those standing nearby were extremely envious as Cheng Qingli easily won two more land deeds.
How come they never get such a great opportunity?
"Consort, let's go back quickly." Fangcao tugged at Huo Yunzhi's sleeve fearfully. She was afraid that her consort would do something foolish that she would regret, and if she went back, she would definitely suffer.
"Again!" Huo Yunzhi said through gritted teeth.
"Madam, do you still have any gambling funds? If not, our Jubaolou can lend you some money on credit, as long as you sign an IOU," Manager Xu said with a smile.
"Give me a thousand taels!" Huo Yunzhi really didn't have that many silver notes on her, and she was determined to get revenge.
With a thousand taels, she could win back what she had just lost and then return it all.
Thinking of this, Huo Yunzhi looked at Cheng Qingli again. She didn't believe that she could win a third time after winning twice.
In any case, she couldn't afford to miss this round.
"Yes, Madam!" Manager Xu smiled. One thousand taels, but when she asked him to repay it later, it would be much more than that.
He wasn't afraid she wouldn't pay him back.
After all, he had already figured out Huo Yunzhi's identity; she was just a concubine of Prince Lan Huai. When the time came, he would send the list to Prince Lan Huai's residence, and he was afraid that Prince Lan Huai's residence would not give it to him.
Soon, someone came over with a tray of silver, along with a contract.
