Chapter 183 Cricket Fighting Competition
"Juanjuan, did you buy sesame candies for the Buddha today?" Old Madam Si thought of the sesame candies at the foot of the mountain.
"Sweet mouth, it can bless the family!" Juanjuan nodded with a smile.
At first, Madam Si thought the child was greedy, but she didn't expect that she wanted to bribe the Buddha.
When they returned home, they heard Miao Jiu's angry voice before they even entered the door.
"It's just a cricket fight. Do you think I'm afraid of him? Go back and tell him that I, Master Miao Jiu, have never been afraid of anyone." Miao Jiu shouted at someone.
"What's going on? I heard your voice before I even entered the room." Old Madam Si saw Miao Jiu's angry look as she entered the room.
"Someone invited him to a cricket fight, but there were no crickets in this season. But this guy found some crickets from somewhere and bet him fifty large yellow croakers."
"If he doesn't dare, then let Miao Jiu give up some of his assets. This is clearly provoking him to take the risk."
Si Ning looked at the furious Miao Jiu and said, "You can't find Cricket if you promise now. He has dug a trap for you to jump into."
Miao Jiu sat on the sofa: "If I don't agree, then I, Miao Jiu, will be a coward."
"If you agree, what will Cricket do?" Old Madam Si frowned. This man clearly wanted to trick Miao Jiu.
Juanjuan tugged at Si Jinchen's clothes: "Brother, what is cricket fighting?"
"It's just two crickets fighting." Si Jinchen explained in words she could understand.
"Whoever is stronger will win?" Juanjuan tilted her head and thought for a while.
"Well, it's just that there are no crickets in this season. Even if my uncle agrees, we won't be able to find any crickets in a short time." Si Jinchen frowned at Miao Jiu.
"Is it enough to have powerful crickets?" Juanjuan blinked her big eyes and looked at the people in the living room.
"I think so!" Si Jinchen didn't quite understand either.
Juanjuan turned around and ran to the yard: "Cricket, are there any powerful crickets?"
"Crackle! Where did the crickets come from at this hour?"
"Ohhhh. Have you forgotten what the young master's constitution is?"
All the chicks shut up and followed her with their heads down as if they were looking for crickets.
After a while, a few crickets really emerged from the ground, and each one was very big.
"Cluck, cluck. Delicious."
"You can't eat them!" Juanjuan stood in front of the crickets to prevent them from dying in the chicken's mouth.
"Oh my! You're too greedy, too greedy." After saying this, the chicken drove the hen away, otherwise one of them might not be able to resist and eat something.
The main thing is that these crickets look quite fat, so they should taste good.
"Chirp. What do you want from us?" A cricket flapped its wings.
"Can you help your uncle fight?" Juanjuan squatted on the ground and looked at the crickets.
"Chirp. Fight? We can't beat humans!" A cricket shook its antennae.
"I'm not fighting with humans, I'm fighting with crickets." Juanjuan explained.
"Chirp. That's easy. We are the kings among crickets." A cricket even showed its powerful hind legs to Juanjuan.
Juanjuan stretched out his chubby little hands and let them jump onto his palms.
She ran back happily holding them.
Miao Jiu is now on the phone, asking someone to find crickets for him.
"Uncle, look." Juanjuan handed him a few crickets in her hand as if she were presenting treasures.
Miao Jiu originally wanted to take a casual glance and then say a few words of praise, but he couldn't take his eyes off it after seeing it.
He quickly hung up the phone: "Juanjuan, where did you find it?"
Juanjuan pointed to the yard outside and said, "In the yard!"
"What's wrong?" Si Ning walked towards them.
She saw the crickets in Juanjuan's hands, feeling quite relaxed. She was also a little surprised: "Juanjuan, did you find these?"
"Yes, they can help uncle!" Juanjuan smiled and stretched the little hand holding the cricket closer to Miao Jiu.
Miao Jiu squatted down and looked at her: "Juanjuan, you are really a lucky star. When your uncle wins money, I will give you all the money."
"Juanjuan doesn't want it, but Juanjuan has a request." Juanjuan looked at him seriously.
"What request?" Miao Jiu was a little confused.
Old Madam Si also came over curiously and saw the crickets in her hand. Although she didn't know how to fight crickets, the ones in her hand were not simple.
You can tell at first glance that these are very powerful crickets. Ordinary crickets have to surrender when they see them.
"After they help your uncle win, you have to prepare some delicious food for them and let them go!"
"If my uncle doesn't agree, Juanjuan can't give them to you." Juanjuan didn't want them to lose their freedom.
Miao Jiu thought it was some kind of condition: "I promise you, I will prepare some food after this is over, and I will let them go once they are full."
Juanjuan extended her little finger: "Pink."
"Okay, pinky promise." Miao Jiu stretched out his little finger and hooked it with hers.
"We make a promise that we won't change for a hundred years. Stamp it." Juanjuan stamped it with his thumbs up very seriously.
Miao Jiu asked someone to find a box, put a few crickets in it, and prepared food for them.
It’s strange that these crickets don’t fight each other in the same box. If they were in another box, they would have started fighting a long time ago.
"Juanjuan, I'll take you to see it when the time comes."
"Okay! I'll cheer them up." Juanjuan looked at the ones in the box with a smile.
Miao Jiu was in a very happy mood. He seldom played with crickets, but he was not a person who knew nothing about them. Just picking out any one of these crickets would be enough to give those boys a hard time.
Fifty big yellow croakers, I will make you lose everything.
"Go set up a betting line for me and spread the word that I accepted the cricket fighting competition. Also, say that I paid a high price for the crickets."
Since someone is rushing to give him money, he naturally won't miss it. Anyone who doesn't make money is a fool.
Madam Si and Si Ning looked at his cheerful mood and shook their heads helplessly.
"Juanjuan, let's do our homework." Si Jinchen pulled Juanjuan to do today's homework.
"Okay." Juanjuan pulled Si Jinchen and ran to the study.
Si Ning couldn't drink tea now that she was pregnant, so she could only drink boiled water: "It seems someone is anxious to send us money."
"It's okay. I couldn't find a chance to deal with these people in Beiyang City. Now that they are so anxious, I will just collect some interest." There was a hint of coldness on the corner of Miao Jiu's lips.
Old Madam Si lowered her head and stirred the tea in the cup with a small spoon. Couldn't these people just be quiet?
The Governor's Office did not want to be dictatorial, so as to avoid instability in the city in the future, but some people forgot that Miao Jiu was never a rule-abiding person.
Since you guys want to make trouble, don't blame him for setting up a trap to trick you.
Of course Miao Jiu had to act out the whole act, so he went out to act, and acted out the look of a madman looking for crickets to the extreme.
His agreement to fight crickets with others became known to everyone in Beiyang City.
You have to know that losing a game means catching fifty yellow croakers, and a total of nine games and seven wins are required, which means more than three hundred yellow croakers. It’s very exciting to think about it.
In addition, now that the dealer has started taking bets, many people in Beiyang City are itching to get involved.
