Chapter 274 Li Xiwu’s empty gloves and the white wolf
Here in Beishui Town.
After Mo Yujin and Han Qianye got closer, they chatted about more topics than before.
When passing by a nail salon, the two of them made an appointment to get a manicure together. This was not a gift, so there was no need to worry about not being able to pay for the manicure.
After going back and forth, both of them seemed to have almost forgotten today's mission.
Li Xiwu didn't go to the nail salon. She had been thinking about what kind of gift she should prepare for Han Qianye without spending money.
It seems like a simple task, but is actually quite difficult.
It's too rude and seems too perfunctory.
Gifts that are affordable require money.
Yu Hewei looked at Li Xiwu and frowned, jokingly: "Are you in trouble?"
Li Xiwu looked towards Yu Hewei, her lips opened, and she wanted to say something. She looked past the teahouse across the street behind Yu Hewei, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
Yu Hewei raised his eyebrows, looking at Li Xiwu's expression, he must have found a solution.
She turned around and looked in the direction Li Xiwu was looking just now.
Teahouse?
Li Xiwu is going to the teahouse?
What can she do at the teahouse?
A few minutes later.
Li Xiwu appeared at the door of the teahouse opposite.
Beishui Town is a scenic spot, and most of the people who come here come here for tourism. Although the cafes and teahouses that can be seen everywhere on the streets are not crowded, it is normal for them to be full.
A few friends sat down to enjoy the tea ceremony and chat about life.
There were so many people that Li Xiwu only took a quick glance and quickly exited.
She used her mobile phone to navigate and found another teahouse.
In the house we finally found, there were a few aunts and uncles in their fifties and sixties sitting sparsely inside. Two people sat down to play chess, three people sat down to play long cards, and some were playing mahjong.
Everyone had a cup of autumn tea and a plate of small melon seeds at hand, and the atmosphere was harmonious, albeit a little chatty.
Probably because there are not many people here, and the aunts and uncles are all old. They talk loudly and laugh loudly. If you stay here to drink tea, you will lose the purity and only be lively.
【What is Sister Li doing here?】
[It’s so noisy, the aunt playing mahjong’s laughter is so magical!]
[The two old men sitting there playing chess are like old monks in trance. Don’t you think the aunt’s voice is noisy? 】
[Excuse me, let’s go to Miss Piggy’s place first, it’s too noisy here.]
Yu Hewei looked at the environment here and felt a little disgusted.
Mainly because it's too noisy.
There was also the smell of old tobacco, which was too pungent. Yu Hewei couldn't stand the smell. She didn't know what Li Xiwu was doing here.
Seeing that Li Xiwu was about to go in, Yu Hewei grabbed her wrist: "Do you really want to go in?"
Li Xiwu withdrew his hand from Yu Hewei without leaving any trace: "Yes."
Yu Hewei frowned and asked in a slow tone: "What do you want... to do?"
Li Xiwu: "Complete today's mission."
Then, Li Xiwu turned around and walked into the teahouse.
Yu Hewei turned away her face, took a deep breath, sighed softly at the end, and walked in with her feet up.
-
The teahouse is run by the owner himself and does not hire any employees.
As soon as Li Xiwu came in, seven or eight people also came in. Some of them were carrying cameras, and some were holding things that the boss lady couldn't understand.
Anyway, this kind of formation is a bit scary to the landlady.
She hurriedly slipped out from behind: "I have a business license and a health permit, and whatnot, the industrial and commercial registration management is legal. This is a teahouse. Everyone plays cards and chess. There is no gambling."
Li Xiwu saw the boss's wife's nervous explanation. It was probably because there were so many people coming in and they brought cameras with them, which frightened the boss's wife enough.
She quickly explained: "We are not from the industrial and commercial bureau, we record variety shows."
The landlady still didn't believe it, so she asked cautiously: "Recording a variety show?"
Li Xiwu nodded: "Yes."
The landlady stared at Li Xiwu carefully, then suddenly clasped her hands together: "I remember, you are the brainless daughter-in-law of Huanxi's mother-in-law, right?"
Li Xiwu: "..." Fortunately, Han Qianye is not here.
Li Xiwu nodded: "My name is Li Xiwu."
"Yes, yes, your name is Li Xiwu." The frightened expression on the landlady's face slowly recovered: "Let me just say, the more I looked at you just now, the more familiar you look. By the way, you were recording a show in Beishui Town recently, right? I just said
I didn’t even realize it was you at the first time.”
Li Xiwu smiled and responded.
The landlady eagerly pulled Li Xiwu inside and asked if she wanted to borrow a venue today.
The landlady even said generously: "I will lend you my place to record the show and you won't have to pay a penny. After all, you are already promoting my store by showing up."
Li Xiwu first said thank you to the landlady, and then asked: "Three shorts and one, or two shorts and one?"
The poker players will understand it as soon as they hear it, not to mention the proprietress is an old poker player.
He immediately responded: "How about two without one?"
Li Xiwu nodded: "Okay."
The boss lady is ready to go into battle herself, and she is not at all restrained in front of the camera, probably because the camera has never been in her eyes.
They even left the gatekeeping duties to the staff of the program team.
Li Xiwu asked Yu Hewei to go.
The corners of Yu Hewei's mouth twitched slightly: "Should I go to the store?"
The landlady said in a loud voice: "Go ahead, go ahead. I've already made the tea. I'll call for more water later. Just go and refill it. Don't worry, I'll pay you."
Yu Hewei: "..."
If someone else had done this, Yu Hewei would have given him a blank look.
But the one who ordered her was Li Xiwu, so Yu Hewei went there willingly, standing behind the cashier and becoming the temporary boss lady.
Soon, the proprietress found another person, and the three of them sat down to play mahjong.
The staff had guessed Li Xiwu's intentions and knew that Li Xiwu was probably planning to win money at the card table to prepare gifts.
But the money spent playing mahjong is also your own money, which is almost equivalent to cheating.
So the staff came forward to remind me.
Li Xiwu hasn't won any money yet, so she doesn't dare to say anything too harsh. After all, there are many people who are better than her. What if she loses, so she just said: "I want to have fun and have fun."
Hearing what Li Xiwu said, the staff backed away.
[Damn it! It’s the last issue, and I actually saw another side of Sister Li who was originally an otherworldly person!]
[Li Xiwu instantly became so down-to-earth! 】
[I thought playing mahjong was an entertainment that my mother loved to play at her age.]
[It turns out that Sister Li is also starting to show off.]
[Why do I think Li Xiwu is here to win money? If he wins money, he can prepare a gift for No-brainer. But this is too much luck. Unless he wins money on the first hand, he can use the money he won to continue playing.
Is it a violation?]
[Haha, I don’t know if I feel the same way. Sister Li is definitely not reliable at the card table! 】
Even Yu Hewei couldn't help but frown.
Can she play cards?
Has she really learned to play cards?
She had never touched these things before, who taught her?
No one expected that Li Xiwu, who originally seemed unreliable, won the first hand of cards. The boss lady praised Li Xiwu for his superb card skills!
Netizens who originally thought the environment was too noisy were about to leave when they saw Li Xiwu sitting down and playing mahjong. It was a rare scene.
The popularity has not diminished at all, but has increased rapidly!
In the end, Li Xiwu relied on his guaranteed winnings from the first hand and played several games in a row, winning more than two hundred yuan!
The boss lady can afford to lose and has no intention of stopping.
As the winner, Li Xiwu couldn't just call it quits. Fortunately, the other eldest sister was so heartbroken by the loss that she left in a hurry on the pretext that she wanted to go home to cook.
Even though the boss lady lost money, she was still happy. She kept smiling so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes. She also said that she would treat everyone to dinner, which was very generous.
Li Xiwu smiled and declined.
She collected the money she won and prepared to get up and buy a gift for Han Qianye.
At this time, someone else sat down in the seat opposite the eldest sister who had just left: "I see that one of you is missing one. I'm a bit old. I wonder if you would mind?"
The landlady said: "I don't mind, as long as you can read cards, you can be a hundred years old, but she is here to record the show and is going back now."
With that said, the landlady pointed at Li Xiwu beside her.
Li Xiwu also raised his eyes at the same time and looked at the old lady sitting opposite.
