A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 231: It is a hard truth to quit while you are ahead

During Hang Shuheng's lecture, Song Ning did not interrupt him at all. It was not until he finished that it was her turn to be a good person. "Get up! Go downstairs and take care of your wounds first. Xu, take some money from the mansion's account and go to the pharmacy to buy some external medicines. Take good care of your wounds for the time being. There is not much work to do in the house anyway. Wait until you are well."

"Thank you, ma'am. Thank you, ma'am." Mr. and Mrs. Chen were filled with gratitude and kept nodding and kowtowing.

They had originally planned to go to the city today just to get medicine and buy some necessities for the family, and then return to the village. Who would have thought that this would happen? It was already late, so they could only eat in the city before returning to the village. Song Ning asked Shuisheng to buy some food from a restaurant outside and have a meal there.

After Shuisheng came back from buying food, he said to Hang Shuheng mysteriously, "Uncle Hengzi, guess who I saw on the street just now?"

Hang Shuheng rolled his eyes at him and said, "Speak." How childish! Still guessing.

Shuisheng was asking for trouble and laughed dryly. "On my way back just now, when I passed by the gambling house, I saw Zhang Dazhuang. He went into the gambling house."

Zhang Dazhuang? Hang Shuheng paused for a moment before realizing who Zhang Dazhuang was. He was Zhang Cuiju's brother. Zhang Dazhuang went to the gambling house. Could it be that he had not lost all the money he had stolen from Zhang Cuiju?

Song Ning knew nothing about what they were whispering about. After finishing their meal, Hang Shuheng took Uncle Chai out, saying that they were going out to earn some money.

Hang Shuheng, with a full beard, led Uncle Chai into the gambling house. The gambling house was full of people, from high-ranking officials to peddlers and hawkers, and it was bustling with people.

The manager of the gambling house saw them enter the gambling house but just stood there watching without placing any bets, so he asked, "Sir, you look unfamiliar to me. Are you from out of town?"

"You're right. We are merchants passing through. We're going to stay in this county for a day. We have nothing to do, so we came here to have some fun."

When the manager heard that it was a passing merchant, his eyes lit up. That was great. Merchants have money and they can be slaughtered at will.

"What do you want to play, sir?"

"No hurry, let's take a look first."

Hang Shuheng picked up a piece of money here and there in the gambling house. After a round, he had won over a hundred taels of silver.

Zhang Dazhuang was also found in the gambling house. It seemed that Zhang Dazhuang was unlucky. He lost every time he bet and was already desperate.

Hang Shuheng watched for a while and saw the clues. Zhang Dazhuang was being tricked and had even borrowed money from loan sharks. It seemed that someone had already dealt with him without him having to do anything.

However, Hang Shuheng was a little puzzled. Didn't these people check the background of this person in advance? If they lent him money, could they get it back? Hang Shuheng threw a handful of silver into the pool, and the bet was the opposite of what Zhang Dazhuang had bet on. Sure enough, it won.

The manager who had been following them since they entered the venue couldn't help but think to himself that this guy was really lucky and won almost every time he bet.

"Sir, you are lucky. How about playing something big?"

"Play big? How?" Hang Shuheng asked with interest. He was waiting for the other party to run out of patience.

"How about a one-on-one game between you and me?"

Hang Shuheng pretended to think for a while, "It sounds interesting, tell me the rules!"

"There are no special rules. It's just that, since it's one-on-one, the amount of money you bet can't be so random. It has to be at least fifty taels."

"Okay, fifty taels is the starting point, I have plenty of money."

When the manager saw that he had taken the bait, he smiled triumphantly and asked the waiter to clear out a table.

Two people sat opposite each other at a table. At the beginning, the manager of the gambling house was not very good and started to play tricks right from the start. As a result, after gambling for more than ten rounds, the game was still neither going up nor down.

"Damn it, I'm betting it all." Hang Shuheng cursed and pushed all the silver in front of him into the account, totaling more than one hundred taels of silver.

Although Uncle Chai knew that he was pretending to be rude, he was still not used to it as it was the first time he heard his master swearing.

This time he bet everything and won. Hang Shuheng bet everything again, including the principal and interest. This time he won again. At this time, a lot of silver had piled up in front of him, and the total amount was nearly six hundred taels.

The gambling house manager's mouth twitched slightly. It seemed that this man was indeed lucky. However, he would not always be lucky.

"Sir, you're lucky. Do you dare to go all in again?" The manager of the gambling house thought secretly that if the other party dared to go all in again, he would make him lose all his money. Seeing that the money he had in his hands was gone in an instant, he didn't believe that he could still resist and not pay out money.

"Why not?" Hang Shuheng said, and pushed all the silver in.

"Sir, you are very courageous!"

The gambling house manager started to roll the dice. Uncle Chai had excellent hearing and listened to the changes in the dice cup until it fell. The number was wrong. Uncle Chai used his internal strength and slapped out a palm wind without leaving a trace, and the number in the dice cup changed.

"Open it." Hang Shuheng said.

"Be careful!" The manager of the gambling house looked determined to win. He lifted the dice cup with a smug look on his face. Without even looking, he knew that the other party was bound to lose.

However, before he could feel proud for a moment, he soon heard the onlookers shouting out an unexpected answer.

"Oh my god! I got it right. I got it right again. It's a small one."

“This is such good luck!”

The corner of the gambling house manager's mouth, which had just been raised, fell instantly. He took a closer look and found that the points were actually different from what he expected.

"This...how is this possible?" He looked at the points in disbelief, then raised his head to look at the man opposite him. Could it be that he met a master?

I saw the other party was counting the silver slowly and muttering something that made people envious and jealous, "It seems that my luck today is really good. I only used ten taels of silver as the capital and earned a thousand taels of silver for nothing. Thank you for your kindness."

"Sir, you are really lucky. Come again."

"Hey! Being greedy is not a good thing." Hang Shuheng shook his head and put away all the silver and banknotes. Fortunately, some of the large-denomination ones were all silver banknotes, otherwise if they were all silver, it would be very heavy to carry.

"It's a good idea to quit while you're ahead. Goodbye, uncle. We're leaving." After saying that, Hang Shuheng swaggered out of the gambling house with Uncle Chai.

The gambling house manager was filled with anger and felt very uncomfortable. He didn't expect that he would be pecked in the eye by an eagle today after playing with it all day. He had been in the gambling house for so long and he had always been the one to trick others, but he had never suffered such a big loss!

He winked at the person next to him, and that person understood, quietly took a few people and followed him out secretly.
