Chapter 89: Battle on the Terrace (the first update on the shelves)

  Chapter 89 Battle on the Terrace (First Update)

  Because of playing with things and losing their minds in gambling, the imperial court punished those who set up gambling and gamblers severely. But there are exceptions: every major festival, the court allows the market to set up gambling tables, euphemistically called "small gambling pleasures".

  Gambling items that are allowed to be opened during special periods include cockfighting, horse racing, running dogs, and Guanpu. During the New Year holidays, market vendors can set up gambling games to attract customers as long as they report to the yamen in advance.

   Cockfighting and horse-fighting is the favorite game of the gangsters in Kang'an City. As a famous gangster in Kang'an City, Erye Jiang also enjoys it.

   After arriving at the cockfighting ring, Erye Jiang immediately handed over the little girl to the wet nurse, "Let's go to play first, Daddy will make money for you to buy delicious and fun food!"

   Before Jiang could reply, Erye Jiang had already rolled up his sleeves and pulled Jiang Bao into the crowd to make a bet. Jiang Hou'er, who was abandoned by Jiang Erye, jumped up and looked at the stage, "Ho! It's the black general who will fight this time, and the black general will win!"

   The brocade-clothed servant from an unknown house stretched his neck and pushed him over, "Jing slut! Can the black general beat the white judge?"

   Jiang Hou'er roared back on his hips, "Don't you know that Judge Bai was pinched bald by the purple flower crown last time? The purple flower crown is the defeated general of the black general!"

   "When did that happen? One time and another! Judge White is sure to win this game. If you don't believe me, wait!"

   "Wait just wait!"

   Seeing that the chickens hadn't started fighting, Jiang Hou'er started to pinch people. It was really disrespectful. Jiang Muyan didn't want to stay here any longer.

  Jiang Liu is also not interested in the chicken pinch, "Brother, where?"

  Sister Jiang Ling agreed with everything Jiang Ling said, and the three little ones walked ahead hand in hand, and Ya Yin, Jiang Cai, Nanny, Shu Xia and Shu Qiu immediately followed.

  This is gone, why don't you watch it? Jiang Houer stomped his feet and plunged into the crowd to find his second master.

  San Xiaozhi arrived at the Guanpu stall and stopped moving.

   "Guanpu" is the most popular game of Dazhou people. According to the gameplay developed by the merchants, Guanpu can be a lottery, darts, throwing copper coins, etc. The rules are simple and suitable for all ages.

  Daddy always wins every gamble, Jiang Liu feels that his luck is not much worse. So, she found a stall that didn't require speed and strength, spent two cents for a chance to draw a lottery, and chose one with confidence. Seeing the seven neat little characters that read "Flowers bloom, wealth and happiness last forever", Jiang Liu was very satisfied and handed it to the stall owner.

   "Good sign!" The stall owner handed Jiang Liu a small silk flower with a smile on his face, "The little girl is very lucky, she will be smiling a lot this year."

  …

   This silk flower is the smallest and ugliest on the stall! Jiang Liu didn't believe in evil, so he asked the nanny to hand the stall owner eight cents of money, and he drew four times in a row.

   As a result... the smallest and crudest five silk flowers on the stand were all in her hands...

   Jiang Liu felt the world's malice towards her!

  Jiang Muyan had better luck and got a wooden comb. When the stall owner handed it over, he smiled and said, "This girl has a beautiful beauty, and combing her hair with a peach wood comb will definitely bring good luck, and she will find a happy little man soon."

   Jiang Muyan blushed, and Nanny Zhao scolded, "Bah! My girl is only ten years old, what nonsense!"

   Seeing her little sister's sad face and unhappy, Jiang Ling dragged her to the stall next to her, "Which one does my sister like? My brother will call you."

   Next to this stall is a one-person-high turntable full of names of goods. The darts are also two copper coins at a time, and whichever name is hit will get the goods. Jiang Liu stuffed all the flowers into Shu Qiu, and pointed to the bronze ware Yuhuazun in the middle of the stall, "That one!"

   When she drew lots, she heard someone here shouting about Yuhua Zun, saying that this Zun is worth dozens of taels of silver.

   "Okay!" Jiang Ling answered confidently, but he didn't expect to throw the dart twice, only a little bit.

   "Oh, what a pity, this young master is just a little bit!" The stall owner shook his head regretfully and handed an even uglier little flower.

   God bullies people, stop playing! Jiang Liu wanted to pull his brother away, but his brother came up stubbornly and stretched out his hand in front of Jiang Cai, "Money!"

  The well-informed Jiang Cai hurriedly whispered, "Master, there must be a magnet hidden in this turntable, you can't hit it."

   Profiteer! Jiang Liu took his brother's hand, "Brother, go!"

"Do you still want to play? If you don't want to play, move the place, don't get in the way of Yuhua Zun, who is taking twenty taels of silver each!" The short and stout man next to him saw Jiang Ling didn't move, and stepped forward to squeeze him out of the way to take a good position. .

  Jiang Ling was squeezed, and if Jiang Cai had not helped him, he would have fallen down with his sister.

  Jiang Ling got angry, and when he got up, he rammed into the back of the man, with his knees on his knee sockets, I'll let you ram!

   "Ah!" The man lost his balance, took a few steps forward and knocked down the turntable.

   "Whoa!"

  The turntable was knocked over and cracked by him, revealing the fixed magnet in the mezzanine. This stall owner really cheated! Seeing the man who fell to the ground covering the magnet with his sleeve, Jiang Liu realized that this man was the support of the stall owner. No wonder he shouted so loudly just now.

  Jiang Ling could not let him cover up and shouted loudly, "Hey! Why is there a magnet in the turntable, what's the use of it?"

  The crowd gathered around and pulled the big man away. Sure enough, they found that there was something tricky in the turntable, and said angrily, "Okay! I said that there was no one who hit Yuhuazun in a long time! So that's what happened!"

  The stall owner was anxious, "Heroes and heroes, we have something to say..."

   "What a shit!" The crowd pushed the stall owner and shouted, "Go and ask the official, this stall is cheating!"

  If you are caught cheating in a gambling drama, you will be punished with a stick and confiscated, or you will be forced into the army to perform hard labor. Everyone pressed him to the ground with all his hands, and some people were greedy for petty gains, so they took the small objects from the stall and slipped them into their arms.

  The official who managed Fangshi came to find out the situation, tied the stall owner, confiscated the goods, and brought them back to the official yamen.

  Jiang Ling stepped forward, weak and pitiful, "Can you give me back my four cents? That's the money Dad asked me to buy candy for my sister."

   Seeing the official look over, Jiang Liu hurriedly bent his eyes and pulled the corners of his mouth, trying to pull out Daddy's most popular expression pack.

  The officers and soldiers saw that the little girl was really cute, so they took out four copper coins from the money box and handed them over, "Children, don't touch these things!"

   "Master, and the villain's..."

   "The villain also hit ten darts..."

  When the crowd rushed forward, Jiang Ling took his sister out and told her very seriously, "If he doesn't cheat, I will definitely hit Yuhuazun."

   "Yeah!" Jiang Liu nodded vigorously, "Brother-brother-the most-powerful-awesome."

   That is nature. Jiang Ling smiled with neat little white teeth, "What else do you want, sister?"

  Jiang Liu had already had enough of it, turned his head and asked his sister, "Sister-want-want-what-?"

   Jiang Muyan had had enough, "Let's go to the musical instrument shop in front of us?"

   "Okay." He had heard that the musical instrument store in Dongshi had a variety of musical instruments, and Jiang Liu wanted to open his eyes. But they didn't get far when they were stopped.

  The three little ones looked up and saw the short and strong man who knocked down the turntable just now, folded his arms and stared down at them.

   Jiang Cai and Yayin immediately stepped forward to block the little masters, and Yayin, who was a bit taller than the man, also folded his arms and looked down at him, "What do you want to do?"

  The man ignored Yayin and raised his chin at Jiang Ling, "You brat not only has a black face, but your hands are also very black! Do you dare to go up and make a gesture with your grandfather?"

  Jiang Liu turned his head and saw a mountain shed not far from him, with brocades and flag tents on the shed, and a half-person-high arena beside the shed, where the two were fighting.

   This guy, who is a bit taller than his brother, actually wants to compete with his brother? Shameless! Jiang Liu clenched his brother's hand and wouldn't let him go.

   The nurse cursed, "Bah! You **** don't want to bully my young master!"

  The man ignored no one, and just stared at Jiang Ling and asked, "Boy, if you don't dare, just say it, I don't laugh at you!"

   "Who said that the young master didn't dare?" Jiang Ling told Jiang Cai and Ya to retreat, and responded loudly, "Let's talk first, it's a matter of life and death when you get on stage."

   "Yo ho! Dare to steal Grandpa's words! It's alright, you kid has a seed! If I don't kill you today, I'll be merciful to Grandpa!" The man turned his neck, very arrogant.

"Master's son, of course there is a seed." Jiang Erye, who had left his children for a cockfight, finally followed. He put his hand on his son's shoulder and asked lazily, "Lai Liu, who are you going to kill, kid? Tell your father again?"

Lai Liu, who was still showing off his strength just now, saw Jiang Erye, and immediately smiled with his yellow teeth, "Jiang Erye! We will be gone someday! Which gust of wind brought you here? This one is actually from your house. Master? It's really flooded the Dragon King Temple..."

   Looking at the black and white men in front of him, Lai Liu stopped, not knowing where to start when he wanted to praise.

   "Bum, who is hiding in a temple with you! Don't be close to my grandfather here!" Jiang Hou'er scolded when he opened his mouth.

  Lai Liu is just a little gangster in the East City, how dare he provoke the big celebrity in Wansui's eyes, and he apologizes repeatedly, "The villain has no eyes and can't recognize the young master in the house.

   Jiang Erye didn't say anything, Jiang Ling said, "Father, my son is going to compete with him on stage."

"Young master, please forgive the little one, who would dare to do anything with you." Lai Liu frowned. He just looked at this black boy with a sullen face. He thought it was the **** who came into Kang'an City to see the world from somewhere, but who knows. Jiang Er's son.

  Although he had long heard that Jiang Er brought a son back to the city, but breaking Lai Liu's head, he could not have imagined that the little white-faced Jiang Er's son was actually a little black-faced!

   "Brother." Jiang Liu grabbed her brother's hand and refused to let it go.

   Jiang Hou'er also persuaded in a low voice, "Lai Liu relies on his brute strength, and when he rarely loses, the young master will suffer a loss."

   Jiang Ling refused to retreat, "He gave me a gauntlet. Those who dare not fight are cowards."

   "Didn't he think you were young and wanted to bully you." Jiang Hou'er glared at Lai Liu.

  Lai Liu said quickly, "Young Master takes back what he said just now, and the young master just gave a fart as a kid, okay?"

   "Monkey, shut up." Jiang Bao grabbed Jiang Houer who was still talking. The border town has the rules of the border town. Since Lai Liu has written the gauntlet, the young master has to fight regardless of whether he wins or loses.

   Jiang Erye lowered his head and asked, "Do you really want to go on stage?"

   "He has written down the gauntlet, and he must fight." Jiang Ling replied.

   Jiang Erye asked again, "Don't you cry when you fall in pain?"

   "Never!" Jiang Ling motioned for his sister to let go of his hand.

   Although Jiang Liu was worried, he had to let him go. He just raised his smiling face to cheer on his brother, but was covered by his father's sleeve, "You're ugly!"

  You are ugly! Jiang Liu bit his father's sleeve bitterly.

  When his son came to the stage, Jiang Erye grabbed Lai Liu and threatened, "If you dare to break your son, you will have your legs unloaded tonight!"

   "Second Master, don't worry, if the little one goes up, get down on the ground!" Who made him blind, Lai Liu confessed today.

   Jiang Erye snorted, "You beat your son to the ground, and you will be rewarded heavily."

Um? Lai Liu blinked his eyes, and immediately became elated, "Liu understands, you are satisfied with the little service package, you can wait and see..."

   "Don't roll up yet!"

   Jiang Erye didn't bother to listen to his nonsense, pushed Lai Liu back, took the handkerchief Jiang Hou'er handed over to wipe his hands, bent down and picked up his little girl, "It stinks... It's still father's fragrance!"

  Who said she was ugly just now! Jiang Liu pushed his father's head away and said in disgust, "One-body-chicken-feather-flavor-er!"

   Jiang Erye just squeezed in the crowd of men for a long time, and his body really smelled bad, so he had to smile and hand his daughter to the nurse. He looked up at the son in the ring who wanted to drag him to heaven, and shook his head. This kid is covered in thorns. Today, on this stage, I have to break a few of them off to let him know what pain is.

In the arena, an elderly deployment raised a bamboo batch to participate in the gods, and asked Lai Liu and Jiang Ling to step forward and report loudly, "The next battle in this arena is - Dongshi Lai Changfa, Huijiafang Jiang Ling!"

  “Wow—”

  Because of the huge disparity between the two, everyone in the arena burst into laughter, "Lai Liu, you bully children and don't even look at the occasion, think it's in the dark alley of your home!"

   "I beat the milk baby to tears, see if I can spare you?"

"Go, go! What do you know, this is the young master of Jiang Er Gongzi's family. It is Jiang Er Gongzi who asked us to accompany the young master to make a few circles!" Lai Liuxian put the words out, lest someone laugh at him later Dare to play hard.

  This black boy is Jiang Erye's son? biological? When everyone turned their heads, they saw Jiang Erye watching the battle, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

"when!"

  Deployed the gong with a bamboo stick, "Start! The first to overwhelm the opponent with ten breaths wins!"

  Come on brother! Jiang Liu clenched his fists tightly.

   "Young Master Jiang, offended!"

   After receiving Jiang Erye's advice, and having a revenge against Jiang Ling, Lai Liu planned to smash Jiang Ling a few times to relieve his anger. Anyway, as long as the fall is not bad, Jiang Erye will not do anything to him!

   Today, Lai Liu is on this stage, in front of the young and old in Kang'an City, teaching his son for Jiang Er!

   "Ah—" Lai Liu rushed forward with enthusiasm, grabbed Jiang Ling's shoulder and threw it up.

  Lai Liu's strength is not small, Jiang Ling failed to break free, so he rose into the air with his strength, turned over in the air, and his feet went straight to Lai Liu's neck.

   "Boom!"

   Jiang Ling hit the middle, and Lai Liu was overturned to the ground.

"it is good!"

"OK!"

  The onlookers burst into cheers like a tsunami. Who would have thought that the son of Jiang Er, the weak chicken, would be so powerful that he overthrew the strong Lai Liu with one move!

   Jiang Liu also shouted, Erye Jiang opened his mouth blankly, looking dumbfounded.

   "One, two, three, four..." The deployment saw Lai Liu lay down and began to count.

   "No way!"

   "Hey! Lai Liu, you kid, don't put too much water!"

   Seeing Lai Liu lying down and refusing to get up, everyone shouted for him to stop pretending.

   "...Nine, ten! In this fight, Jiang Lingsheng!" After the deployment, he raised his hand to greet the men next to him, "Come on, two people, let's go down."

   Seeing that Lai Liu was dragged off the ring like a dog to death, everyone looked closer, and there was an uproar again.

   It's not that Lai Liu refused to get up, but he was kicked unconscious by the black boy of Jiang Er's family...with one move!
