In order to facilitate Zhou Banxia's use, Qian Gui exchanged almost all the banknotes with a denomination of one hundred taels, and filled two money boxes full of banknotes.

Like Shopkeeper Hu and others, she also made three bets, apart from betting on Zhou Shushun and Gu Erzhu.

When they first saw Mrs. Qian and Shopkeeper Hu taking Gu Wenxuan to task, they all bet on it. How could she not praise her husband as a daughter-in-law?

When Mrs. Qian threw out a thousand tael of silver notes and shopkeeper Hu also deposited a hundred taels of silver notes, she also took a piece of one hundred taels of silver notes.

When he learned the ranking of the number of first bets in each county on the market the next day, he suddenly reacted. The boss behind the casino was now messing around and had no choice but to protect the market.

As gossip and public opinions about the case leaders in various counties spread in the market, she analyzed and deliberated before taking action.

It happened that because she was in Fucheng recently, whether it was Mrs. Qian or Zhao Laosan, the payment for the goods was directly handed over to her, and she had a lot of people on hand.

In order to keep Gu Wenxuan's bet amount from the top three or the bottom three in the case of seizing the government, he secretly released the gossip and spent money at the same time.

With Mrs. Qian's secret help, Gu Wenxuan's ranking can be considered to be in the middle.

As far as Li was concerned, even if the boss behind the scenes colluded with any of the examiners or deputy examiners to operate behind the scenes, he would have made a lot of money, and he would not have offended Qian, Gao, and Zhou Fu.

However, in order to confuse the situation and guide gamblers to whom to invest their chips, she still bet more or less on other county criminals.

Fortunately, Gu Wenxuan got the head of the government case, otherwise he wouldn't have suffered a big loss, but he was destined to lose a thousand taels of silver.

"This banknote——"

"Afraid of burning your hands?"

Even before Zhou Banxia finished speaking, shopkeeper Hu knew that she wanted to give half of it to Mrs. Qian, "My lady has made a lot of money.

You do not know? That day, she paid a loss of one, and she also deposited a large amount, making back all her losses last year. Are you ready for the college exam? "

Zhou Banxia laughed dumbly and didn't ask how much a large sum of money was. Anyway, it would be no less than a thousand taels of silver. "It's not because I have the ambition of others and destroys my own prestige.

Brother Liulang's chances of winning three yuan are not very high. It would be troublesome to bet on others to win.

Furthermore, with Brother Rokuro's fate, it's okay to play once in a while, but it's not good to play too much.

Auntie, my wife and I are different. You are the one who protects me today.

No matter how much Uncle Zhou raises my status, can I really become the daughter of a famous family?
From the beginning to the end, I was just a little girl from the countryside, I didn’t dare to hope for anything, and I didn’t want to ask for anything. "

This girl, the young lady (Mrs. Qian) was right again, she is sober, she doesn’t need to worry at all!
Shopkeeper Hu patted Zhou Banxia's hand with emotion, "It's good if you can think of it this way, you still have a long way to go, and living a good life by yourself is better than any false reputation.

When your master was still alive, he was worried that he would make you stupid. Fortunately, you are not really stupid, and you have a bit of your master's demeanor when it's time to take action. "

This refers to her protecting the market this time, Zhou Banxia understands.

"You can't blame me this time, the clay figures are all very angry.

I don't care that I have been a maid, and I have neither stolen nor robbed. I am an innocent person, and I dare to say that I have no regrets in my heart.

But if someone wants to make a fuss about me and vaguely suggest that Brother Liulang married a maid and climbed up to become a powerful person, then don't blame me for being ruthless.

I didn't let their blood splatter three feet because my master wanted to return to his ancestral grave and it was not appropriate to see blood. "

Damn it!
If this girl hadn't acted quickly to stop the spread of rumors, at best, no matter how talented Liu Lang was, the government official would not have dared to name Liu Lang as the head of the case; at worst, his reputation would have been ruined.

Those people who dare to use their imagination to spread rumors and slanders, to the point of losing all their money and ruining their entire family, are just children with a kind heart, so they just resort to tricks.

"Do you feel that you will inevitably hurt innocent people, and you feel uncomfortable when you think about it?"

"I dare to bet that you are not innocent." "Very good!" Shopkeeper Hu high-fived, looked at Zhou Banxia who pursed his lips, and said with a pleased smile, "You have really grown up, this silly girl is no longer stupid."

Smiling in the middle of summer.

"My lady wants you not to forget what it means, 'Compassion does not control soldiers, justice does not control wealth.' The people you buy should be trained to be soft-hearted and establish rules."

Yes, she transformed from her identity as an aunt into a loyal female shopkeeper.

The roles were changed so quickly that Zhou Banxia burst into laughter. Even after being slapped on the arm by Shopkeeper Hu, he was still very happy.

After chatting for a while, shopkeeper Hu had to leave.

The matter at Xiuzhuang has been settled, but I haven't gone to Ruyifang for two days. I don't feel relieved if I don't go.

Fortunately, we have to meet at Gaojiazhuang the day after tomorrow. If we forget something that has not yet been discussed, we can discuss it then.

Shopkeeper Hu asked Zhou Banxia to move the items not intended to be transported back to Qinghe Village to Zhuangzi outside the city as soon as possible before tomorrow night, and then rush back to Ruyifang first.

Zhou Banxia knew that she and Qian Gui were very busy these days, so he didn't try to persuade them to stay.

After Shopkeeper Hu and his wife left, she started to divide the banknotes before dinner.

First, he gave Xiaobai's 290 taels of silver, and then mysteriously asked Zhou Shun and Gu Erzhu to take a look at the silver notes in the money box.

"How much money is there in here?"

"Not much, they are all small-dollar bills. The main reason is that Brother Liulang won, and we bet early, losing five to one, and we made almost a thousand taels of silver.

Well, this is yours. "Zhou Banxia was talking nonsense without blinking an eyelid, and as he spoke, he handed each of them a banknote.

On Thursday, Shun saw that it was a banknote with a denomination of one hundred taels. In front of Gu Erzhu, he was embarrassed and put it away, "It's more, not that much -"

"No matter how old the box is, we only have one for each of us? Put it away quickly." Gu Erzhu elbowed him and said, "Sanya, here are a few more."

"Dad~"

"give or not?"

"Okay." Zhou Banxia reluctantly gave each of them another one, "There can't be more, dad -" She laughed before she could finish her words.

At this time, even Zhou Shun couldn't help but laugh, "It's just for this one time, but there won't be another time. I can stick to anything, but not gambling."

Don't tell me this isn't gambling, it's something elegant. You can win quickly and lose quickly with this thing, so you might as well just keep making pancakes and slowly accumulate money, you know? "

Gu Erzhu strongly agreed with this.

Although the child doesn't even want the things her master left her, and she's not so obsessed with gambling for money, it's best if she doesn't get attached.

Furthermore, the in-laws didn't know, and he didn't know that the child was currently short of money. This time, he probably had no choice but to take a gamble.

"What do you think, what if someone found out that the wife of the crime boss was still a gambler?

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~" Zhou Shunzhi shook his head, "There is no need for Rokuro to write a letter of divorce——"

"Not really."

Gu Erzhu interrupted quickly, "Our child can't bend any more, what kind of character is Sanya, you still don't know?
If she wants to make money from these things, she has to help others to put in good words, so there is no need to take over embroidery work.

That's right, your aunt didn't coax you into taking over the embroidery job this time, right? "
