Chapter 34 Marriott Gambling (Deading)

The voice of the wolf came from Xiao Lingxiao's mind, "Master, will you let him go like this?"

Xiao Lingxiao replied in a secret voice, "Since he already knows his identity, there is no need to kill him immediately. The monk can't run away from the temple. What's more, the relationship between him and his wife may lead to some interesting things in the future. We don't have to worry.

Xiao Lingxiao didn't say anything, and the fourth prince and Xiao Shumou were not convenient to stop him, so Su Donghan left like this.

Wanjinhao gambling has been disturbed like this, and everyone knows that the gambling will never continue. No one is in a hurry to leave. They are all here to see how the owner of Wanganzhuang will deal with this matter.

Xiao Fengming came to Xiao Lingxiao's side and asked softly, "Looking at my sister's proud appearance, she must have won a lot of money?"

Xiao Lingxiao smiled when he heard the words, "It's not much. It's just two million taels."

Her words were not loud, but everyone heard it. Those who participated in the gambling frowned, and later Xiao Shumou and others couldn't help taking a breath of cold air.

Two million taels? Still?

At this time, Xiao Lingxiao called the dealer and the enchanting woman who had been hiding in the distant corner and said, "Please go back to your master. If this Wanjinhao gamble can't continue, I, Xiao Lingxiao, will leave the cashier."

The two of them were full of respect, nodded repeatedly, and hurried out.

Xiao Fengming saw that Xiao Lingxiao was not angry because of Su Donghan's incident. Instead, he was in a good mood, and his heart finally let go. He asked with a smile, "My sister has two million taels of silver. How do you want to spend it?" If my sister hasn't planned yet, Feng Ming is willing to do it for her and help her spend a flower.

Xiao Lingxiao turned his head and looked at him seriously, not like a joke. After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "You can take it and spend it, but remember, my sister, I never do money-making business."

Xiao Fengming smiled indifferently, "That's natural."

Before long, the dealer and the enchanting woman came back with a delicate wooden box. The two came to Xiao Lingxiao and opened the wooden box. Everyone looked at it, which was full of large silver tickets.

"This is the silver won by Miss Xiao. We have all changed it into silver tickets, which is convenient for you to carry."

The enchanting woman put the wooden box in front of Xiao Lingxiao, and then said loudly, "Today's matter is all a misunderstanding. Master, please forgive me, and the Marriott gamble is over. According to the usual practice, the host should invite a guest to meet in the inner house..."

When she said this, the spirits of the people present were shocked. After all, this Wanjinhao gambles on life and death every year. What they care more about is the identity of the owner of Wanguanzhuang.

But I heard the enchanting woman continue to say, "The host said that I'm afraid it will be inconvenient to see Miss Xiao today. I will definitely send an invitation some day, and then I will ask Miss Xiao to come and talk."

Although everyone has long guessed that the person invited would be Xiao Lingxiao who stirred up the gamble for no reason, they didn't expect to be invited to meet again in the future. Most people were discouraged by losing this opportunity, but the fourth prince's eyes were shining and there was a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Since we will meet in the future, he still has a chance to pull back Xiao Lingxiao's heart!

Originally, after Xiao Lingxiao was driven out by the Xiao family, the fourth prince was very shaken, but today he saw Xiao Lingxiao's unpredictable skills, and he once again made up his determination to take this woman in his own hands!

Xiao Lingxiao got a lot of silver tickets and was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, so he didn't care much about whether he could see the owner of Wanguanzhuang. She left Wanguanzhuang with Xiao Shumou and others and returned directly to Fali Temple.

Returning to Fali Temple, Xiao Lingxiao showed off two million taels of silver to Xuan's brother and sister, and returned the principal taken out by Xuan before to him, and all the remaining silver tickets were handed over to Xiao Fengming.

Xiao Fengming was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Xiao Lingxiao really gave him so much money. The sense of trust contained in this warmed Xiao Fengming's heart, but he didn't say much and put away all the silver tickets as a matter of course.

Xiao Ranjun looked at Xiao Lingxiao, who was not only safe, but also seemed to be much better than in the Prime Minister's mansion. His heart was also relieved. The old lady has been very strict with him recently. He couldn't stay here for a long time, so he returned to the imperial city first.

Xiao Shumou was an idle man, and there was a lot of excitement here, so he couldn't leave with a smile.

At this time, Xiao Lingxiao remembered and asked, "Uncle, why did you go to Wanguanzhuang at that time?"

Xiao Shumou squinted his eyes and picked up the corners of his mouth and said, "I haven't been idle these days. I've been looking for the whereabouts of the man you mentioned. Later, the eldest lady contacted the man again and was found out by me. The message they sent said that the man would participate in the Marriott gamble... Feng Ming said that the man had seen you and was afraid that he would kill you on the spot, so we hurried there.

When Xiao Lingxiao heard the words, he looked at Xiao Fengming again and wanted to ask him how he got the invitation, but he hesitated for a moment and felt that he had better not to open it for the time being. What Xiao Fengming hides doesn't seem to be simple. It's better to wait until he wants to say it himself.

After Wanjinhao gambling, Xiao Lingxiao still lived in Fali Temple safely, but she went to participate in Wanjinhao gambling and won 2 million taels of silver in one fell swoop, but the news immediately spread in the imperial city.

When the news reached the Prime Minister's mansion, Xiao Shuyong was so surprised that he couldn't get it together.

Before he could investigate carefully, the old lady had sent someone to call him.

Xiao Shuyong went to the inner room of Xianglin's courtyard and saw that Xiao Shumou was sitting in a chair with a careless look.

Xiao Shuyong also sat down after greeting the old lady and heard the old lady ask, "Lao San, you just came back from Fali Temple. Tell me, what's going on?"

Xiao Shumou did not hide it and said, "Mother, big brother, are you going to ask about Ling Xiao? Isn't it all spread on the street? It's true that she participated in the Wanjin gamble and won two million taels from Wanguanzhuang.

The old lady and Xiao Shuyong were slightly shocked when they heard the words.

Two million taels of silver! The Xiao family is a famous family, but they have no ability to take out 2 million taels of silver casually! Not to mention the children of their family, who has the ability to earn two million taels of silver in just a month or two!

That's... two million taels of white money!

"How did she do it? Did Wan Guanzhuang give her the money? The old lady asked incredulously.

Xiao Shumou nodded with a smile, "I didn't see what was going on in the gambling game with my own eyes, but I was there when Wan Guanzhuang gave the silver ticket. By the way, my mother, the fourth prince and cousin Donghan were also there at that time. If my mother has a chance, she might as well ask them in detail.

The old lady frowned and looked at Xiao Shuyong. Xiao Shuyong didn't know what he was thinking with a calm face.

At this time, Xiao Shumou asked the old lady, "Mother, the Sixth Prince and Jing Zhaoyin have not found anything about Hua Ling'an, and it's not safe there. It seems inappropriate for Lingxiao, a young lady who hasn't left the cabinet, to live in Fali Temple all the time. Shall we see when to pick her up?

The old lady was slightly stunned, and then said in a low voice, "I let her go to Hualing'an to become a monk for the sake of the Xiao family. Who knows that she left the Xiao family without stopping, and she made so much trouble again. If you dare to go in and out of Wanguanzhuang, the face of the Xiao family has been lost by her!"

Xiao Shumou shook his head and said, "My mother is wrong. If Lingxiao became a monk at this time, what would outsiders think of our Xiao family? Push a good child into the empty door, and maybe the child will still hate the Xiao family in the future. But if her mother sends someone to pick her up and discipline her well, that's also her. The child is already 15 years old this year, and it won't take long to find a marriage. At that time, the Xiao family will happily send her away. Isn't it reasonable and decent?

Xiao Shumou was so eloquent that he gave the old lady a step without any waves. Everyone can see that the old lady and Xiao Shuyong are thinking about the two million taels of silver now. It's nothing for them if Xiao Lingxiao doesn't come back, but if the Prime Minister's mansion has two million taels of silver in the account at once, it would be the best thing.

Xiao Shuyong has never said anything. He is secretly calculating that the money that the farmland store can collect this year can receive. Even if it catches up with the best year, it is absolutely impossible to recover 2 million taels this year. If you have two million taels of silver, you can not only buy more land, but also build another courtyard outside the city. Seeing that the end of the year is approaching, I walk around with the relatives of the emperor and the officials of the court. All kinds of banquets and a large amount of money are needed everywhere, which are related to the face of the Prime Minister's mansion. In previous years, the eldest lady was always worried about these things. If there is two million taels of silver this year, there is no need to worry about. The famous craftsman ink mentioned by the emperor last time is still hanging in General Hong's reckless study. How much money does it take to get it before he realizes that it is the emperor's favorite thing...

Xiao Shumou sat quietly aside, looking at the wonderful changes in the expression on the face of the old lady and Xiao Shuyong, and sighed faintly in his heart. He didn't know whether Xiao Lingxiao had expected such a day for a long time. He didn't know if she wanted to use these two million taels of silver as a bargaining chip to return to the Prime Minister's mansion. If she really calculated like this, she was also very smart and suddenly hit the point of these people.

The Prime Minister's Xiao family is very beautiful, but the more such a family is, the more powerful people are, the more they understand how much money can do, so the more they value money.

Xiao Shumou lowered his head, with a smiling face, covering the contempt and helplessness in his eyes.

As an uncle, I used to leave Lingxiao alone, but now I want to help her, but I can only help her to this extent.

Not long after, Xiao Shuyong made up his mind and raised his head to the old lady and said, "Mother, what the third brother said is reasonable. Lingxiao's child is perverse, and he may cause greater trouble if he is put outside. Why don't you take her back? At that time, I will tell Qi to discipline her well.

The old lady's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she raised the corners of her mouth.
