Gu Changqing's eyes softened, "What are you guys doing?"
Little Jing Kong replied, "Playing leaf cards!"
Grandaunt taught them!
The elderly woman spoke, "Little Jing Kong, who is it?"
Little Jing Kong turned back and answered, "It's big brother!"
Knowing who this big brother was, the elderly woman said, "Come in and have a meal with us."
Her voice wasn’t loud nor her tone heavy, but it carried a kind of repressing aura.
Gu Changqing hesitated.
He really didn’t intend to pay them a visit, so he didn't bring a gift with him, which was kind of rude especially since today was the day of the New Year.
"What are you still doing there? Come in!" The elderly woman urged.
"Yes!" Gu Changqing went in.
But first, he gave the elderly woman a grand salute.
Strangely enough, what he did was the salute between an official and a monarch.
He himself was stunned by his own subconscious action.
Fortunately, the elderly woman and everyone else didn't pay it any attention.
Gu Yan lowered his head so that he could not see the words written on his face.
Gu Changqing looked at Gu Yan's silly little appearance and couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.
Hearing his chuckle, Gu Yan’s whole person felt bad. He decisively turned around in the snow and left only the back of his head for him to see!
Old Chief took Xiao Liulang to visit his old friend who was dying, so Gu Jiao cooked their meal.
Their meal wasn’t as lavish as that of the Marquis Estate, however it had a special flavor that reminded people of their childhood.
The atmosphere at the table was less serious as the family ate happily.
Gu Changqing even regretted why he didn't stay the previous times.
After the meal, Little Jing Kong asked him, "Big brother, do you want to play cards?"
"I, I don’t know how." Gu Changqing grew up under the influence of Old Marquis Gu from an early age. The path he took growing up was a very strict one. Playing had simply nothing to do with him.
As far as he was concerned, he should not play around nor he was able to, otherwise he would not be a qualified heir.
Little Jing Kong tilted his head aside and said, "It doesn't matter. Grandaunt can teach you! Grandaunt is amazing!"
All three of them were Grandaunt’s students!
Little Jing Kong was the cleverest one. Grandaunt taught him only once, and he had already beaten Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun to death many times!
Gu Changqing hesitated.
Gu Jiao curved up her lips and said, "It’s New Year. You can have fun."
Gu Yan also nodded.
Actually, even Old Madame Gu, who loved his grandsons very much, never told him such words even once. It doesn't matter. You can have fun.
Gu Changqing seemed to finally break the shackles on his back. He took a deep breath and responded, "All right then."
Gu Jiao suggested, "You guys play in Grandaunt's room. It's warm there. I'll get you something to eat."
The elderly woman’s pupils dribbled about as she observed Gu Changqing. Gu Changqing was well-dressed with extraordinary bearing, and he had an upright appearance. At the gamble table, he must be the foolish type with a lot of money.
Elderly woman: "Aiya, it would be embarrassing to write on our faces in front of a guest. How about betting ten copper coins instead!"
The little local tyrant Jingkong just received the rent and currently had a lot of money, so there was no pressure on his side at all!
Gu Xiaoshun also received some new year money from Gu Jiao.
Gu Yan had it the worst. His new year money wasn’t even enough to pay off his debts to Little Jing Kong.
The twelve copper coins a day he earned from working for Little Jing Kong were all hard-earned money from shoveling chicken manure till his hands went soft!
However, he would rather empty his purse than have his face drawn in front of Gu Changqing.
It was no big deal... He would just owe Little Jing Kong another debt and continue to shovel chicken manure for a few more days.
Little Jing Kong: Just a friendly reminder, your chicken manure work for this year has now been scheduled!
"I'm really not good at this..." Gu Changqing felt embarrassed. The Old Marquis had never allowed him to have fun as excessive attention to playthings sapped one’s will. He didn't even know leaf cards, and it took him a long time to figure out which was which. "Please don’t take offense if I don’t play well."
As a result, as soon as they got started, he bested Little Jing Kong in seconds!
Little Jing Kong：“...!!”
To be honest, Gu Changqing was still in a state of ambiguity about the rules after a few turns. Was it better to go with this or that one? How about this one?
Then, the moment his cards were revealed, the whole audience was bombed.
He actually won without having a clue.
The elderly woman was the gambling queen of Bishui Alley. Not a single neighbor was able to win money from her.
The elderly woman was unconvinced and went to play another round. As a result, she was still destroyed by Gu Changqing.
The elderly woman's expression turned black like carbon.
Gu Changqing awkwardly opened his mouth, "This... I really didn't mean to. I won't go with this one. I'll change it."
He changed the card with another, only to end up with the best combination!
Once the best combination was made, the opponent had to pay double.
Elderly woman：“…”
Does anyone have any fast-acting anti-heart attack pills there?
The whole family, who knew how to play leaf cards, was actually beaten by Gu Changqing, a novice who didn't even understand the rules.
Little Jing Kong suddenly felt depressed.
He stood on the same spot soullessly as his head was frantically rubbed in frustration by the elderly woman!Raz P.'s Thoughts
