Chapter 223 Two things in life to keep in mind
What Saburo said was absolutely right, and everyone nodded in unison. Jiang Liu, who was holding the pen to write the review, did not have any trouble in her heart. Her father was handsome and sweet, so he could live well. Saburo, who was ugly and stupid, wanted to be treated like his father?
how is this possible!
The extremely calm Jiang Ling wrote in a swirl. He thought that Daddy's idea was a good idea. He had to finish it quickly so that he could help his sister to write.
Jiang Muyan bit her lip. When her mother was alive, she was often upset because her father would bet money at night. It was wrong to gamble with money.
Jiang Erye raised his eyebrows, got up and walked to the position where his eldest brother had just lectured, imitating his eldest brother to put on a serious face, and said, "Sister-in-law, third brother, third brother and sister, you continue to write. Everyone else should stop writing, listen. I say."
Who has the heart to write like him? Even Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Yan put down their pens and looked up at him, but they wanted to hear how he justified it. Jiang Huai is still writing, because he has to write a copy for his son after he has finished writing his own.
Jiang Erye raised his hand to cover his red lips and coughed lightly before saying, "I often go in and out of the casino, not because I like to gamble, but because there are three religions and nine streams in the casino, and the news is the most well-informed. If you don't believe me, think about it carefully, except for the casino, I Where do you go the most?"
"Restaurant, tea shop." Jiang Erlang replied very cooperatively. If he said that the person he most envied in his family was his second uncle.
"Erlang is right." Jiang Erye is not like a big brother. He never hesitates to praise the children for doing well. "These places are places where people come and go. I go to these places to get news and clear the way. Human relations. If the news is not clear, you will close your eyes and ears. If you have no human relations, no one will help you in the snow, and you will only fall into trouble. You say, right?"
"Yes!" Jiang Huai agreed very much.
"Yes—" Jiang Liu also agreed very much. In her opinion, Daddy's connections played an important role in the Jiang family's ability to survive the difficult times of the past few years.
Others also followed suit. Although Chen was dissatisfied with the second brother's idleness every day, he had to admit that what he said made sense.
Jiang Erye continued, "Because I've been to many casinos and I'm used to what you see today, so I understand the disadvantages of being obsessed with gambling more than others. I only gamble in small casinos, and I never gamble with my family's property. It is precisely because of this characterization that I can often walk by the river and never get my shoes wet..."
Hearing Daddy talking, Jiang Liu raised his chubby hand and covered his eyes, secretly saying Daddy floated, floated...
Xiao Shilang did not agree with Er Uncle's words, "Er Uncle, Uncle said that this time we count you as the biggest bet in our family."
It's not me, it's me and your father. Jiang Erye smiled and carried the pot on his back, and continued, "This time is indeed the biggest bet I have made in the past 28 years. Do you know why I dare to bet?"
Everyone shook their heads and listened intently.
"Because what I bet on is that I can become a jinshi!" Jiang Erye waved his fan, impassioned, "Since the first month of last year, I have been practicing the arts of literature and martial arts hard, and I know that I can become a jinshi, so I dare to make a big bet. It's up to me to decide whether to win or lose. So strictly speaking, this is not called gambling, it should be called self-knowledge!"
"Second brother is right!" Jiang Huai immediately cheered, completely ignoring the fact that he and the second brother bet most of the money on Guo Jingping.
Xiaoshiro was also persuaded, "Second Uncle is amazing."
Seeing Jiang Saburo puffing out his cheeks, he was very unconvinced. Jiang Erye said, "If you have the ability, let Quan Kang'an's casino open a game because of you, and you can do the same."
Jiang Saburo's cheeks shrunk immediately, everyone...
Jiang Erye raised the corners of his mouth and continued to teach the children his experience, "Girls can play leaf cards and throw pots with others. You can't gamble. However, Erlang, Ling'er, Saburo, and Shiro, you are different. When you grow up and walk out of the house, you will inevitably be dragged to casinos and other places where you cannot get on the table. No matter where you are, you must keep two points in mind: first, who am I and how much I have; second, these words I said, I have done this, can I afford the consequences?"
"Every time you talk and do things, you have to ask yourself once in your heart. After you understand these two points, you won't be hurt if you make a little mistake." Jiang Erye shook his fan gently and sighed, "Many people I just don't know who he is, how much he has, and if he makes a big mistake on the spur of the moment, it will be difficult to look back."
Chen felt that the second brother was insinuating her as a sister-in-law. She didn't know how much she had, and her face was ugly.
Jiang Erlang nodded in agreement, Jiang Ling brushed his brush and wrote the words "self-knowledge". Jiang Liu couldn't help applauding Daddy, Daddy said so well.
Jiang Erye was satisfied with what he said, and waved his fan, "Keep writing."
Seeing that his son finished writing, Jiang Erye just opened his mouth to ask him to write a copy for himself, but saw that he took Liuer's pen and paper and helped Liuer write.
This boy! Jiang Erye just took a step, but he heard the second niece whisper, "My niece will write a copy for the second uncle, okay?"
Jiang Erye smiled and nodded, "If Zheng'er is not tired, just write a copy for the second uncle, and the second uncle will buy you the tofu brain at the gate of the house."
She is like a transparent person in the house, but the second uncle remembers that she likes to eat tofu brains. Jiang Muzheng's eye circles turned red, and he took a white rice paper and seriously wrote a review for the second uncle.
Jiang Liu Dian Dian walked over to Daddy, "Liu'er too."
"Second uncle, my nephew also eats tofu brains and oil fruits."
"Second Uncle, Jin'er also wants to eat."
Jiang Murong couldn't bear it any longer, "Second Uncle, I'll have a bowl too."
Jiang Erye nodded with a smile, "All of them. You can write quickly. After you write, let's go to your grandmother to eat."
"Okay—" The little guys buried their heads in writing, Erye Jiang shook his fan and went out. After instructing the steward to go out and buy tofu heads, he strolled to the backyard and saw his mother and eldest brother were drinking tea and chatting.
Mrs. Jiang no longer complained about her eldest daughter-in-law with her eldest son, but pulled her younger son to her side and asked, "Why do you feel uncomfortable going out this circle?"
According to the saying of five labors and seven injuries, forcibly lifting heavy objects hurts the kidneys the most, which made Mrs. Jiang worried.
Jiang Erye smiled as if he was okay, "Mother has used acupuncture, herbs, and medicinal wine for my son, and my son is not uncomfortable at all. It's alright."
Mrs. Jiang was relieved. After gossiping for a while, the children rushed in one by one with the written review book. After Mrs. Jiang and Jiang Songyan read the lecture, they let them eat.
The last person to come was Mrs. Chen. She walked in gruffly, moved slowly to her mother-in-law, and whispered, "Mother."
Mrs. Jiang lowered her eyelids and said nothing. Chen shi knelt down and said, "Daughter-in-law knows it's wrong, please calm your anger."
The children were all in the wing, and Mrs. Jiang didn't say anything serious, so she let her go to dinner. Just like this, Mrs. Chen still felt that her mother-in-law made herself shameless in front of the children. After returning to the East Courtyard, she sat on the couch and wiped her tears, wiping away her tears. Thinking of the two hundred taels of silver that she could not get back, Mrs. Chen couldn't help it. She began to cry, and she held it back until her husband came back and stood up with her head lowered.
Mrs. Jiang didn't say anything to her, but she told her son everything she needed to say. Jiang Song looked at his wife whose shoulders were shaking and sighed.
"Master..." Chen shi came over and stood beside her husband, crying.
Jiang Song took out a stack of silver bills from his arms and put them on the table, "Second brother and third brother won a thousand taels from the bet this time, and they took it out and used it for Rong'er's dowry."
What? ! Chen shi suddenly raised his head, unable to believe his ears.
Jiang Song said calmly, "I wanted to give you the money, but if you did such a stupid thing, I gave the money to my mother. But my mother added another hundred taels and asked me to give it to you. The mother said, if you don't even know how to do your daughter's dowry, she will not dare to hand this family over to you in the future."
Chen Shi had mixed feelings, holding the bank note and crying.
