How could they dare to object? They had just learned mahjong not long ago. They were fascinated and wished they could play mahjong for a while longer.
As for whether you win money or not...
unimportant.
Everyone is just trying to have fun.
Of course, those who "lose" to the old lady are not counted separately. They "lose" to the old lady because they want to please the old lady and be filial to the old lady.
In other words, in fact, the planning skills of Mrs. Yao, Second Mrs. Yao, and Third Mrs. Yao were not as bad as Gu Qingling imagined.
Perhaps at the beginning, they were really not as good as Gu Qingling because of their skills.
But after playing for a long time, they gradually mastered the rules and knew how to play. However, their opponent was the "Old Lady". In order to make her happy, the three of them joined forces in a tacit understanding - Shao Ying
If you lose too much, please make the old lady happy first.
In addition to mahjong, Gu Qingling also took out playing cards and led them to "fish", "compare sizes", "fight bandits (i.e. fight landlords)", "ten-thirty", "twenty-four o'clock"...
Obviously, compared to Mahjong, which has only one way to play, Solitaire is much more interesting.
It didn't take long for Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Yao to focus on the cards.
Coupled with Gu Qingling's guidance, everyone was given two pairs. When Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Yao, and Mrs. Yao didn't want to come to the old lady's yard, the three of them could play cards together.
Although mahjong is also very interesting, mahjong is only available in the old lady’s yard, so...
"One to three."
"One to four."
"One to seven."
"No way, sister-in-law, don't you have a pair of fives? You jumped directly to a pair of sevens. It's too much." Mrs. Yao Er said, taking out a pair of jacks.
Mrs. Yao: "I want to have a pair of fives, but what if I have one? You just made three fives, where do you want me to steal another five."
…
The three of them were having a good time when someone came down to report that the prefect's wife was here.
As soon as the prefect's wife entered the door and saw the playing cards in their hands, she immediately said that they had something good and didn't know to call her. If she hadn't heard Sister Ying say that, she wouldn't have known that they had something interesting.
Mrs. Yao Er chuckled lightly and said that it was not that she didn't know how to call her when there was a good thing, but that they had just played with it and were not familiar with it yet, so they were embarrassed to call someone. They planned to get familiar with it themselves first, and then call the prefect's wife.
Play together.
"How can that be done? You are all familiar with it, where can I beat you? No, no, you have to take me to play with you when you don't know how to do it, so that I can have a chance to win you..."
Because the prefect’s wife came in the middle, she did not rush to jump in line. Instead, she let Mrs. Yao, Mrs. Yao and Mrs. Yao play two games first to give her an overview before joining in the new game.
they.
When I was reading it, I felt like I understood it, but when I started playing, I realized that I was actually still some distance away from understanding it.
But, you can still play it now.
After a few rounds, the prefect's wife's face burst into laughter: "Hahahaha... I won. Did you see? I won. I didn't expect that I am also a good player at this game. Just wait, wait until I put it in front of you."
Win all the chips."
"Then let's wait and see when you can win."
…
Playing cards instantly took over the status of pigeon chess and became the favorite of the prefect's wife.
This time, there was no need for the prefect’s wife to take the initiative to speak, as Mrs. Yao Er had already prepared two cards to give away.
I originally wanted to prepare one copy, but the prefect’s wife complained that she only gave one pair of Pigeon Chess last time and asked the prefect to take it to the Yamen, so I prepared two copies this time.
"Solitaire? What's that?"
"What?! You don't know? This is a new thing that the prefects are playing with. Let me tell you..."
"No, it's really so fun."
"Of course it's true. Many young men and young ladies from wealthy families are playing with it now."
"What is that mahjong? Didn't you also mention a mahjong?"
"Mahjong is a bit expensive, and ordinary people like us can't afford it. It's better to buy playing cards, which are cheaper."
…
To say that mahjong is expensive and poker cards are cheap is only a relative term.
In fact, these two things are not cheap. After all, no matter how cheap they are, playing cards are still made of paper, so the price cannot be that low. Generally, those who can afford them have good family conditions.
However, Gu Qingling didn't want to push this kind of "playing with things to lose one's ambition" to ordinary people.
Most ordinary people have to be busy working all day, so how can they have so much time for "recreation"?
Only "rich people" have so much free time and pursue spiritual entertainment.
Of course, for ordinary people, it is not that Gu Qingling has not introduced anything at all, such as pigeon chess, the kind made of bamboo, the price is indeed cheaper, then wood, and then all kinds of jade, agate, etc.
Gu Qingling thought that all kinds of toys that children played with in his previous life could be made in this era, and he tried his best to have them made.
At first, not many people noticed this "grocery store hoping to have a successful child", but as pigeon chess, cards, and mahjong became popular, this grocery store suddenly came into the eyes of major aristocratic families, allowing them to discover that-even
There are so many ways to play?!
Snake chess, beast chess, and backgammon are obviously played for children, but they are also welcomed by adults and become the favorites at banquets or gatherings.
If an adult wants to make the children happy, they can also buy them as gifts.
In addition to the serious chess games above, there are also some weird games in the Wangzi Jackie Chan grocery store, such as smart traffic chess, insect adventure chess, number game chess, goose chess, bullet chess, nine-piece chess, fox and goose
, watermelon chess, tic-tac-toe, rice-tac-toe...
It seems that with just a slight change of tricks, a new game of chess can be created.
If you don't want to use your brain and just want to use your fingers, there are various versions of "pair-pair", such as animals-pair-punch, food-pair-punch, and flowers and plants-pair-punch.
There are also "Number Matching Fun", "Maze Challenge", "Shape Block Matching", "Hanging Shooting Game", "Fun Tangram"...
It is said to be a toy sold to children, but adults also have fun playing with it. How can I break it?
Mrs. Yao Er came back after going out for a while, with a look of helplessness on her face: "Old lady, you don't know that as soon as I showed up, those people immediately gathered around me and asked me what good things you have in your grocery store.
Can you send a copy to their house next time when good things come out? I see, adults are more happy to play with those things than children. If I didn’t want to play with them myself, I would want to complain...
This is something for children to play with, why did you play with it?"
"Yeah, then why did you get into it?" Gu Qingling joked with a smile on her face.
"I don't want to play either, but the things that the old lady makes are so interesting that I can't help it...Old lady, the people under you are so powerful, they can design so many
It’s an interesting thing. I feel like if I play the same thing every day, I can play it until next year without repeating it.”
Not to mention, whether it was Mrs. Yao Er herself or Mrs. Yao, after Mrs. Yao San discovered that there was a "treasure" hidden in Wangzi Chenglong's grocery store, she usually had people staring at the grocery store and buying a pair whenever there was something new.
Come back and try.
If it's interesting, buy a few more copies, it will definitely be a good gift.
If that's it, it's okay, you can just keep it for your children to play with.
