Dressed as the pampered step room of the grandfather

Chapter 147 Gambling
When An Ruoyu saw her, she was jealously watching a girl courting He Shaoqian.

Wow!She has a good vision, and she has taken a fancy to He Shaoqian, Mr. He, but she is not good enough for Mr. He.

Hongye was right, they were quite good at seizing opportunities, and it seemed that they didn't need her help at all.

At this moment, there was an uproar at the entrance, which attracted the attention of many people, and the iconic sexy black dress and flaming red lips made more people exclaimed.

"Who has such a big face, invited the Hongyu girl from Chunfeng Building." Baili Hongye blew a frivolous whistle, not to mention that this Hongyu girl is pretty enough, she sings well and dances beautifully, she All the women looked happy.

"Eh..." An Ruoyu gave her friend a weird look. If she didn't know, she would really think that she was a playboy. Is it something a girl can do to whistle at the courtesan? What's the matter with the tone of appreciation.

But looking at Hongyu, who attracted countless men and women to watch excitedly, An Ruoyu laughed, Hongyu is really popular, this is for both men and women.

As the behind-the-scenes person who single-handedly made Hongyu popular, An Ruoyu expressed that she was very proud, and had a sense of accomplishment as a manager who can experience the kind of modern society that makes the artists in his hands popular.

Although Hongyu still doesn't know who she is, it doesn't stop her from being proud.

"Huh? Who is that?"

Seeing Hongyu enter the shed under the leadership of the servants, a middle-aged fat man of about 50 years old was sitting with a beautiful woman, An Ruoyu frowned, isn't this a flower stuck in cow dung? , who is this person?

"King Huai!" Baili Hongye's expression was not very good, "No wonder we invited Miss Hongyu here, so it's King Huai, this old pervert!"

"She is King Huai!" An Ruoyu exclaimed, no wonder she was able to invite Hongyu here, so it was King Huai, the emperor's own uncle, who made the move.

It's no wonder that Mother Su let Hongyu come here, this King Huai is a famous womanizer, there are many beautiful girls in the mansion, and this King Huai never sticks to the identities of these girls, there are officials, There are ordinary people, and even actors and prostitutes.

But it's okay to say that this King Huai made a mistake in sex, because the girls in his backyard are all voluntary, and they never do those robbery things.

Although he is in a high position, he only likes to eat, drink and have fun, but he is not a fish and meat, so he has to be criticized for being beautiful. It can be said that he is a person with a bottom line, not too bad. Can't get up.

The arrival of the oiran Hongyu pushed the atmosphere to the climax, and what was surprising was that King Huai took this opportunity to start a gamble.

This casino is the racecourse. Anyone can participate in the horse race. People outside the field bet. If they make a right bet, they will win.

"Heh!" Hearing about King Huai's plan, An Ruoyu felt very interesting. It seems that King Huai is not the idiot who only eats, drinks and has fun as rumored. This gamble seems too much It's nonsense, but it would be a great thing if this thing is done.

She just said, now that the Ancheng incident has caused the entire court to be in a state of distress, which of the high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital don't put their tails between their tails to be a human being, for fear that an accident will offend the emperor's dislike.

The party was held so grandly that the emperor simply didn't pay attention to it. Unexpectedly, King Huai made such a brilliant move. When the emperor knows about it tomorrow, not only will he not be unhappy, but he will be very happy.

This gamble has mobilized everyone's emotions. After the next horse race is ready, not only the men, but even the women will generously contribute to the next bet. This is not gambling. It's doing good deeds!
Even An Ruoyu and Baili Hongye looked at each other, and called someone to place a bet on them. As Mrs. Dingguo, you can't be too stingy when you make a move, let alone it's about Ancheng, so just throw it away 1000 taels of silver went in.

When I gave the bank note, I was slightly distressed, and I was glad that when I sent the silver to Song Yu, I didn't use the private treasury he handed over to me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get out the 1000 taels today.

I'm still poor. I don't know when the Xu family will be able to make a profit. It's been half a month. Why hasn't there been any movement from the Xu family? Isn't there something wrong?
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"

"Quick! Quick! Don't be overtaken!"

"Quicker! Faster!"

With an order, the entire racecourse exploded instantly. No matter men, women, young or old, no matter how many high-ranking people, they all watched the horses vying for each other on the track, shouting excitedly, cheering for those who bet on them.

Infected by this atmosphere, An Ruoyu also threw away those restraints, and followed Baili Hongye to shout for the people she had bet on.

Although I lost in the end, and the 1000 taels of silver were wasted, but I don't feel much distressed when I think that it will be used on the victims of Ancheng in the end.

In the end, those who won donated all the money they won, but King Huai returned their principal and only accepted the money they won, which was really a wave of goodwill.

On the way back, An Ruoyu chatted with Nanny Song, praising King Huai for his high EQ. After a party, not only the emperor was happy, but also those who came to the party, whether they lost or won, were happy. I also earned a wave of goodwill.

What a powerful person, this really doesn't look like a person who can only eat, drink and have fun.

"Madam is really right. Our King Huai is indeed a man of real ability. Don't look at the fact that everyone says that King Huai only knows how to eat, drink, and play. In fact, they have not seen that ability."

"The first emperor was only five years old when he ascended the throne. The first emperor saw that King Huai had treated him with great kindness. When King Huai was young, he was also amazingly talented, and he was also extremely capable in the court."

Nanny Song quietly approached her ear and whispered: "It's just that when the first emperor was old, the ability of King Huai seemed a bit dazzling, and then he was suppressed by the first emperor again and again. Later, the first emperor passed away, and King Jian Conspiracy, today is also very suspicious. Under repeated suppression, King Huai simply handed over power after that, started eating, drinking and having fun, and ignored government affairs, but people of a certain age know that King Huai is capable. Don't look at Huai. The king looks like this now, when he was young, he was also a handsome man with a luxuriant tree facing the wind and a clear breeze and a bright moon."

"This royal..."

An Ruoyu understands Nanny Song's unfinished words, it's a power struggle in the royal family.

Song Yu was not around, An Ruoyu didn't have much thought of running around, she only attended a few gatherings held by the wives, and brought An Ruomeng and the three of them to show their faces, and then stayed at home reading books, embroidering flowers, tossing and turning Eat, and then fight wits with Song Yu's three biological siblings.

Of course, after receiving Song Yusong's reply letter with only two words, An Ruoyu took a sigh of relief and did not reply to the letter, nor did she send delicious sauces to Ancheng anymore. It made that steel straight man miss her from time to time.

This also caused Dingguo Gong, who was looking forward to his little wife's reply, to look more and more gloomy. The icy aura emanating from his body made He Shun secretly cry, praying in his heart that even if his wife didn't reply, he would send something. Okay, as the Duke's personal servant, he really can't bear it anymore.

Now the Duke of the country is working harder to handle official duties, so he can relax his aura when eating, but...but the rice sauce and salted duck eggs are almost finished!

In the blink of an eye, three months have passed, and this day has entered the hottest stage. Sitting in the main room, feeling the cold air coming out of the ice basin in the house, looking at the white sunlight outside the house, listening to the trees outside the window. There was a sound of cicadas chirping, and my heart was so irritated.

Looking at the cheap daughter and niece who gave her fans around her, she felt even more irritable.

She regretted that she shouldn't have brought this cheap daughter, Song Qingyao, and Erfang Liu's daughter, Song Qingfang, along with An Ruomeng and the others.

A ten-year-old and an eight-year-old girl have matured their consciousness so early. They know the benefits of going out with her, Mrs. Dingguo, so they have only taken them out a few times, and they have started to curry favor. In this backward era, It's really hard for women.

But even though she felt that it was difficult for a woman, she was still very uncomfortable facing the two girls' flattery.

"This fan is really well embroidered. The butterflies on it seem as if they are about to flap their wings and fly out of the fan. Fang'er's embroidery skills are really good."

Picking up the presented fan, I couldn't put it down watching the butterflies flying around the flower branches on the thin fan. Her niece's craftsmanship is really amazing.

The eight-year-old girl embroidered the butterfly so vividly, it was much better than her unskilled hand, and even better than the ten-year-old Song Qingyao. I am afraid that she put a lot of effort into this embroidery.

"It's fine if Auntie likes it. After returning home, Fang'er will embroider other patterns for Auntie. I wonder what kind of pattern Auntie likes?"

Song Qingfang smiled shyly after being praised, and her mother said that her aunt is a good person, and she is willing to take her out for a walk to meet those young masters and ladies, so I must thank my aunt.

My aunt is Mrs. Dingguo, and the whole mansion belongs to my aunt. There are no good things in my uncle's private treasury. Her aunt must not be rare for those things. In this case, she can only make some small things for her aunt. I heard that my aunt was suffering from summer, so I made a fan. I didn't expect my aunt to like it so much.

"That's not necessary." An Ruoyu, who shook her fan handle twice, quickly shook her head, and said with a smile when she saw that the girl was in a hurry, "Embroidery is too taxing for your eyes and energy, you are still young, don't Do too much embroidery."

"And Yao'er, don't make this purse, you guys just come and talk to me on weekdays, your father is not at home, I'm bored by myself."

"Mother misses my father, right?" Song Qingyao laughed. Before her father got married, she was very worried. She was afraid that this new mother would have a hard time in the future. Her youthful but unexpected kindness made her uneasy for a long time in vain.

"Yeah, your father has been away for more than three months and almost four months, and he hasn't come back. If he doesn't come back, I will almost forget him."

Thinking of the letters that have been sent all the time, I can't help feeling angry. Doesn't that bastard know how to write two more words? When he comes back, he must question him carefully. He can't write to his wife. Write a few more words?

"Mother doesn't have to worry too much. Father is so powerful, he will definitely come back soon." She also misses her father. Although her father is not as caring and considerate as her aunt, he still cares about her very much, and she knows it.

"I hope." Cursing her lips, An Ruoyu sighed in her heart, she would really forget him as a husband if he didn't come back.

"Let's not talk about it, it's hard work for you to come here on such a hot day. I asked the small kitchen to make ice bowls. You can try it."

Shaking his head, An Ruoyu winked at A Zao, and after a while, A Zao came in with an ice bowl covered with jam and fresh fruit that was emitting white smoke.

"Hmm!" He took a spoonful of ice and put it into his mouth. The cold feeling penetrated his whole body from his mouth. The cool and refreshing feeling is so comfortable!
"Try it quickly. The ice bowl here is delicious. The eldest son and the sixth young master like it. Although women should not use too much ice, it is okay to eat a little to relieve the heat in such a hot day. It's good to be greedy."

"Then I have to taste it. Auntie's small kitchen is famous in our house. Grandma can't live without the food in Auntie's small kitchen every day. Elder brother Shizi and sixth younger brother are in the Imperial College for food. The fight with your classmate is also rumored outside, and now everyone in the capital probably knows that Auntie, your small kitchen is absolutely delicious."

Song Qingfang held up the ice bowl with both hands, looked at the crystal clear ice crumbs, as well as the bright fruit pieces and honey red beans, and squinted her eyes after eating it, the taste is really delicious!
"No, my daughter's friends are still asking me if the food in my mother's small kitchen is really so delicious."

It's rare to be able to eat the ice bowl in her mother's yard. She has to taste it. She has never seen a woman who likes to toss and eat like her mother, but the food tastes so good.

It's a pity that apart from sending some to grandmother from time to time, mother seldom gave food to others. When she came to pay her respects, she happened to be full a few times and took it orally.

"That's right! My friends also asked me, and some people came to be friends with me specifically for my aunt's small kitchen." Song Qingfang also nodded repeatedly.

"Really, it seems that I have become famous!" Covering her mouth, An Ruoyu laughed cheerfully. She never thought that one day her small kitchen would become famous in the elite circle of Beijing.

"Wait until the weather gets cooler, I'll ask the small kitchen to make some easy-to-carry food for you, so that you can share delicious food with your friends." With a generous wave of his hand, An Ruoyu directly promised to make a delicious meal, not to let those little fans Girls are disappointed, aren't they?

Just when the three of them were happily sharing the ice bowl, Zisu broke into the house with her skirt on her face anxiously, "Ma'am! Ma'am, go to the front yard and have a look, the Duke is back!"
