252 Give Up the Cards
Le Wan secretly stuck out her tongue at her father and didnât dare to play any more tricks.
Big Brother Le and Second Brother Le looked at each other. Little Brother Leâs obvious action just now was only because he thought he was being secretive. Who at the table didnât see it? They didnât expose him for the sake of the baby.
Zhai Jing had just received the signal from Le Wan. He hesitated for a moment and didnât know what to do. It was precisely because he received Le Wanâs signal that he changed his card. Otherwise, he wouldnât have cheated in front of his girlfriendâs family.
Without the main troublemaker, Little Brother Le, the next game was a real competition of Kung Fu. The first round was won by Big Brother Le and Second Brother Le.
!!
However, they didnât feel happy that they had won. Instead, they looked at Zhai Jing.
Both of them were top students in science. Their memory and card-counting skills were quite excellent. So, according to Zhai Jingâs cards, he should have won the game just now. However, Zhai Jing had played it separately.
Second Brother Le directly pushed the chips that Zhai Jing had pushed over to him back and said bluntly,
âSince youâre giving up your cards, then your game is valid.â
Master Le, who had lost the most, quickly shouted,
âSince this round is invalid, then give me back my chips.â
Big Brother Le immediately blocked his outstretched hand.
âHe gave me his cards, but you didnât, so you still lost.â
Grandpa Le was unconvinced.
âZhai Jing is a sensible child who knows how to respect the old and care for the young. Heâs not like you two. Youâre smart and youâve been calculating my cards all day. Itâs not fun at all!â
Second Brother Le chuckled as he counted his chips.
âWe won this with our own abilities. Grandpa, if you canât afford to lose, then let us have the table. Iâm also itching to break up and play with Big Brother.
Grandpa Le waved his hand and made a gesture to chase him away.
âIâve only played two rounds. Iâm not done yet. Donât come over and be an eyesore.â
It was very obvious that he had poor skills and a playful nature.
When Zhai Jing saw this scene, he was at a loss.
Papa Le chuckled from the side.
âOur family never does things like giving and taking. Winning more or less depends on oneâs ability. You donât have to give in to us.â
Although Papa Le wasnât as good at counting cards as his two sons and Zhai Jing, he had been in the business world for many years. Based on his experience alone, he could roughly guess the cards. Therefore, he had won this round by a small margin.
Zhai Jing pursed his lips and felt a little embarrassed.
âI donât play cards often, so Iâm not very familiar with it.â
Papa Le didnât expose him.
âItâs okay. Youâll get familiar with it after a few more rounds.â
Besides the first round of cheating with Little Brother Leâs help, Le Wan didnât make a sound after that.
There was once a gambler in the Le familyâs ancestors who lost all the family property. It wasnât until Grandpa Leâs generation that the Le family began to rise. Therefore, the Le family taught their children from a young age not to be easily addicted to gambling.
Usually, when everyone gathered together, only their family members would occasionally use it to amuse themselves. It was their first day out and they were already at the Mahjong table. It was more or less a test for Zhai Jing.
There were only a few traditional ways to test a son-in-law. One was to look at his alcohol tolerance, and the other was to look at his cards. Zhai Jing didnât drink, so Papa Le and the rest could only see the real deal at the card table.
With Papa Leâs words, Zhai Jing became serious in the third round. Papa Le and Big Brother Le looked at each other and played a combination of cards to block Zhai Jingâs cards.
Zhai Jing frowned and looked at the cards. After thinking for a while, he unwrapped a pair of cards. In the end, Papa Le also unwrapped a card and followed.
Zhai Jingâs hand paused for a moment. He couldnât keep up with the cards, so he could only say,
âPass.â
In the end, Big Brother Le won again. Grandpa Le counted the number of cards in his hands and said happily,
âHey, I donât have to pay for this one, and Iâm still making a small profit.â
As he spoke, he spread his hands in front of Papa Le and asked him about the chips he had won.
Papa Le shook his head helplessly.
âItâs not like Iâm going to give you anything less. Why are you in such a hurry?â
Zhai Jing, who had the most cards in his hands, also silently counted a dozen chips for Big Brother Le.
Big Brother Le pushed the chips into Second Brotherâs hands.
âLooks like weâre on good luck today. Weâll win a lot of money.â
Second Brother Le smiled at Le Wan who was sitting behind Zhai Jing.
âBaby, you donât have to be afraid even if you lose money. Weâll give you a big red packet when we win, and we guarantee that youâll be able to go shopping comfortably tomorrow.â
âSure, Iâll be waiting for your big red packet.â
Although Le Wan had never been short of money, it would be more enjoyable for her to spend the money that someone had won for her.
