Chapter 535
Mrs. Hou ordered her servants to move the chairs and spread the tablecloths. The concubine Fang Gui said with a smile: "The old lady is having a hard time, and she is using our money to fill the hole. Think about it, everyone, when the first day of the new year arrives, sons, grandsons, and great-great-grandchildren Come here to kowtow to pay New Year's greetings, the old lady's silver must not flow out like running water? The old lady feels sorry for the silver and can't help it, so she thought of playing cards to win some."

"Could it be that I can't even take out the lucky money, and I still have to worry about my daughter-in-law's private money?" The old lady deliberately replied with a straight face.

Concubine Fang Gui heard that the busy monkey passed by, hugged the old matriarch's arm and replied coquettishly: "Don't be angry, old lady, I'm just joking. Don't say it's the lucky money, it's for grandson, great-great-grandson, Xuanxuan's grandson and Xuanxuan's grandson married three wives and four concubines, and the old lady didn't even bat an eye. When a lot of babies were born, they all called the old lady great-great-great-grandmother. We were not welcome at that time My daughter-in-law has to stand aside."

"This mouth that people hate and love at the same time!" The old lady squeezed her eyebrows and eyes together with a smile, "If I live to that time, won't I become an old goblin?"

"It's not becoming a demon, it's becoming an immortal!" This noble concubine has worked hard on the old matriarch, and she is well aware of the old matriarch's temper.A few words made the old lady happy.

The third wife sat quietly by the side, she was not proficient in playing cards, and she was not as good as Fang Guiqie in winning the heart of the old lady.Whenever this time, she always resigned early, but this time, for the first time, she sat next to the noble concubine and watched.

"My sister is in a good mood today, come and touch a few." Concubine Fang Gui smiled and got up and asked her to sit down and play.

The third wife hurriedly replied: "I can't benefit from playing, besides, I feel tired. You play, and I will do it by watching."

"Sit down quickly, her body just won't tire her out." The old lady held the dice in her hand, "I think you are afraid of losing money, and you are taking advantage of her at this time."

"I let the old lady see it, but the old lady loves my sister after all!" Concubine Fang Gui glanced at the third wife as if before sitting down.

Ruoxi came late, she came in after the children had settled down, and sat behind Madam Hou after seeing everyone.

The second wife was not as unhappy when she saw her as a few days ago, but she was not as affectionate as before.Ruoxi didn't care, and felt that this was the second wife's true temperament, much better than those villains who put on a smiling face but secretly hurt others.

After a few laps, Wen'er, who was next to Fang Guiqie, found her and said that her natal family had sent girls and mother-in-law to deliver New Year's goods.

After hearing this, she had no choice but to come down, Ruoxi had a child who had to go back at any time, the third wife bravely pushed forward.

"Don't panic, let the second boy's daughter-in-law look after you, you win if you win, and mine if you lose!" the old lady said with a smile.

Ruoxi hurried over when she heard the words, called Bi He over, and said with a smile: "The three cobblers have beaten Zhuge Liang, and my sister also came over to help take a look. If you lose, you're the ancestor, and if you win, I'll give you a share! "

"You girl is already the mother of four children, and you are still so eccentric. The three of you, with six eyes, seem to really make up your mind to win our silver." More and more smiles.

"The old ancestor is a master of cards. He sees all directions and listens to all directions. The three of us tied together don't even want to win money. But I don't want to lose too badly, so as not to spoil the old ancestor's interest." Ruoxi replied with a smile .

It is said that people who don't know how to play are very lucky, the third wife and Ruoxi are both half-baked, and Bi He dare not be too arrogant even though she is on the side.I can't see it, and sometimes I don't even know the cards, but just like this, I have won a lot of broken money.

"Oops. Don't play!" Before Bihe finished speaking, the third wife had already thrown the cards in her hand.

Madam Hou hurriedly pressed down on the cards on the table, and said, "I have no regrets, don't take it back! It must be because I didn't see the cards, so let's not play this card again!"

The third wife took a closer look at the cards in her hand, with a face full of frustration, she glanced at Ruoxi, "This game is over, let them know so don't get confused."

"The servant girl didn't have time to yell so hard and slow, and the third wife's hand is too fast." Bi He said regretfully.

"Come on, I didn't see you being so careful when I asked you to take care of the cards. Now I heard that there are silver points, and I have used all my skills." The old lady laughed and scolded, "If I knew it, I wouldn't let you go It made me lose money."

"It's not that the servants are meticulous, it's clearly the third wife and the second mistress who are smart." Bi He hurriedly replied.

"Draw it yourself!" Turning around, it was the third wife's turn to draw the cards, and she actually got back the one she had played, and immediately shouted excitedly.

The old lady looked over in disbelief, and Mrs. Hou also moved her head forward, "This is really hopeless, it's all because of them!"

"Who's not cured?" A hearty voice came from the door, everyone looked up and saw Lord Hou, Second Master, Third Master, and Yixuan walking in.

Now that the new year is approaching, there is nothing important to do in the court, so they dispersed.The men came back together, but Yihao's shop became more and more busy, and they only returned home after dark these few days.

When the old lady saw her son and grandson, she smiled even more from ear to ear.

"Come on, third, your daughter-in-law's first big win is all over us."

After hearing this, the third master came over quickly, and stood beside the third wife, Ruoxi hurriedly walked aside when she saw this.

"Anyway, mother, elder sister-in-law, and second sister-in-law are rich people, so don't feel bad if we win a little." The third master said with a smile. He is an old son, and he has always been a bit pampered in front of the old lady.At such an age, there is still a bit of childishness.

The old matriarch likes the younger son like this, Lord Hou has a cold face all the year round, and he doesn't talk when he has nothing to do, and the second master has a slightly dull temper and doesn't know how to flatter him.The third master made jokes, which made the old lady more fun.

"At this time, I know that for your daughter-in-law, it's enough for her to work less on weekdays." The old matriarch smiled and gave the third son a look, and asked everyone to sit down again.

The third wife asked Ruoxi and Bihe to divide up the winning money, how could Ruoxi want it, and gave it to Bihe.

After a while, the children also came over.Anfuju became more and more lively. Looking at the house full of children and grandchildren, the old lady still had a trace of regret in her heart.How wonderful it would be if Yitian was doing well, alas, life is not always perfect!

Under the knees of the children and grandchildren Chenghuan, the spirit of the old lady is particularly good.In the past, she was not so energetic, but now she played a few rounds of poker and talked and laughed for a while, but she didn't feel tired.

But Mammy Hu was afraid that she would be tired, so she reminded her softly that it was time to rest.Elderly people had better not just let go of their work and rest, Hou Ye took the lead to get up and leave.

The old matriarch smiled and said, "Each of you should take your own wives home."

Lord Hou turned his head and glanced at Mrs. Hou with a bit of joy on his brows.Everyone left Anfuju in a file, and then separated in twos.
