Chapter 28 Military Governor Zhao Is Numb to Losing

Seeing that Zhao Dengming and Wu Qiushui’s stakes were getting higher and higher, the shopkeeper of the gambling house immediately called over two young servants and whispered a few words.

Not long after, there were rumors of this gambling game on the street.

“Did you hear? Military Governor Zhao gambled on his family property at the street corner’s gambling house!”

“Really? He actually gambled so much. Who is the opponent?”

“I’ve never seen him before. I heard that he’s a new young master. The gambling method is also a new way of playing.”

“Aiyo, we have to take a look then. Brothers, shall we go together?”

“Let’s go together, let’s go…”

It was rare for Military Governor Zhao, who was well-known in the gambling street, to gamble on his family property.

When many gamblers in the East Alley heard the news, they all rushed to the gambling house at the end of the street.

When the shopkeeper saw so many people come in, he was so happy that he could not close his mouth. He ordered the staff in the gambling house to give everyone a cup of tea free of charge, winning the praise of all the gamblers.

Before long, the card table where Zhao Dengming and Wu Qiushui were sitting was surrounded by a sea of people.

Although the crowd didn’t know what kind of game this was, they could tell from their wagers and expressions that the game was definitely at a critical juncture.

“10! I only have one card left!”

Zhao Dengming finished his pair and hugged the card in his hand.

“Special card and 13 pipes.”

Wu Qiushui took out her number two card and a special card. “I can’t afford it.”

Zhao Dengming looked at the two in his hand and finally had a happy expression on his face.

His luck seemed to be particularly good in this round. All the cards were on the large side, and the girl couldn’t afford to take many cards out.

Now he only had one of the biggest cards in the game, and the girl on the opposite side had seven cards. As long as there was a single card, he definitely couldn’t escape.

“Five.”

“No.”

“Three.”

“No…”

“Seven, I only have one card left.”

After Wu Qjushui played the last pair, she held a hand and looked at Zhao Dengming.

“This… how could this be!”

Zhao Dengming widened his eyes. His eyes were red as he stared at the game in disbelief, then he looked at Wu Qiushui.

This girl’s last cards were all smaller than his, and in the end, it was he who couldn’t win.

“It was you who wasted too many big cards. In the end, regardless of whether you played two or ten, you won. But because you fought too smoothly, you didn’t count what cards I had left. So… that was it…”

Wu Qiushui finally opened her mouth and looked back at Zhao Dengming timidly.

“This is impossible… This is impossible…”

Zhao Dengming sat weakly on his seat, looking at the wooden cards on the table and muttering to himself in disbelief.

“Sir, since you’ve lost this round, this deed… belongs to us…”

Chen Zhiyuan reached out his hand and slowly reached out to the deed Zhao Dengming had slapped on the table. “Wait!”

Zhao Dengming held his head with one hand and pressed his other hand on the deed, and the two hands came to a standstill on the deed.

“Sir, are you really going to go back on your word in front of so many people? These people came here because of your reputation.”

Chen Zhiyuan didn’t let go and pointed at the crowd around him.

Only then did Zhao Dengming raise his head. When he realized that the people’s expressions around him had changed from shock to disdain, he finally let go of the hand on the deed and left in a daze. He even forgot to take the bird.

“Sir, please move out of the house as soon as possible. My young master will be there to receive it in a few days!”

Chen Zhiyuan raised his voice and shouted at the back of Zhao Dengming as he left. He then looked at the crowd and said, “Does anyone here still want to bet? If you win against my young master, the bet will be tripled.”

When the crowd heard that, they shook their heads and left.

What a joke.

Even Military Governor Zhao couldn’t win, yet he still wanted to trick them into gambling.

Seeing that most of the people had left and no one else dared to come forward, Chen Zhiyuan pretended to shout, “My young master said that it’s over for today. Those who still want to gamble, come back in a few days.”

Then he put away the wooden cards with Wu Qiushui and left the gambling house.

“Constable Chen, how did I do?”

Walking to a place where no one was around, Wu Qiushui tore off her small mustache and looked at Chen Zhiyuan with a smile.

“Of course, you did excellently.”

Chen Zhiyuan answered with a smile.

“Then you have to keep your word. I’ll eat until I’m full like yesterday!”

“Of course. I, Chen Zhiyuan, have to honor my words. Miss Wu, I’ll send someone to send you back first. I still have to remind Military Governor Zhao. When I go back tomorrow, I’ll cook for you.” “Great!”

Wu Qiushui cried out in joy. Her face suddenly darkened again. She said in a low voice, “Constable Zhao, I still want to ask you for something.”

“There’s no need to ask. Miss Wu, just say it. I’ll do my best to help you complete it.”

Chen Zhiyuan, who had already achieved his goal, did not hesitate. Wu Qiushui had helped him a lot this time. There were not many people who could learn and master this card within a day.

“That’s good! Constable Zhao, can you marry Sister Lu?”

Wu Qiushui stopped and looked at Chen Zhiyuan seriously.

“Uh… this…”

Chen Zhiyuan choked on the girl’s shocking words. It took him a long time to turn around and reply to Wu Qiushui, “Miss Wu, marriage is a big deal. Both parties have to be willing to marry each other. How can I marry her just like that…”

“Sister Lu is willing!”

Wu Qiushui argued loudly before looking around in a panic. She suppressed her voice and continued, “Sister Lu told me in private that she had never seen such a good man like you. She even said… even said that she wanted me to stay…

“Sister Lu wants to go back to Lin County to serve her parents. She might even have to remarry under her parents’ orders. I don’t know what kind of person she will marry. I don’t want Sister Lu to have a bad life, and I don’t want to be separated from Sister Lu… So, Constable Chen, will you marry Sister Lu? I’ll stay behind and be your concubine…”

Looking at Wu Qiushui, whose pretty face was slightly red, a little flustered but more serious, Chen Zhiyuan didn’t know what to say for a moment.

These two girls were obviously good girls. One was well-educated and courteous, while the other was eccentric. It wasn’t difficult to keep them. He should be able to support them, but he had not discussed this matter with Li Zhu’er, his wife.

In his heart, from the moment he woke up, Zhu’er had brought out the only bowl of porridge in the house and handed it to him. Zhu’er was the most important person to him. He knew that Zhu’er would not refuse to take in a concubine, but he felt that it was necessary to inform her first.

“Miss Wu, I can’t answer this question for the time being. How about I go back and ask Zhu’er before I answer you?”

Chen Zhiyuan directly voiced his thoughts.

“Good! Constable Chen, you are indeed a good man who is one in a million!”

Wu Qiushui instantly became happy. She praised Chen Zhiyuan, ran a few steps forward, and turned around with a smile. “Sister Li is a good person, and she will definitely agree!”

As she spoke, the two returned to the inn that they had already booked and changed back into their original clothes.

Chen Zhiyuan called Pockmark Wang, who was waiting for him to send Wu Qiushui home while he went to Military Governor Zhao’s residence alone.
