Chapter 117 Gambling

The old man is worthy of being profound in wisdom, and he suddenly pointed it to the key point. Mr. Wu is not stupid. Of course, he knows that based on the current market, one is a civilian and the other is already a deputy department-level cadre. After decades, my grandfather is no longer, and he is still a civilian. He is probably already in the temple, and the gap between them is even more calculating.

Seeing that Mr. Wu pondered and said nothing, he thought that the eldest grandson had awakened after saying something, so he felt relieved, so he stood up and walked towards his study with a crutch. When the old man went there, the meeting naturally dispersed. Wu Tiege, Wu Geyang, and Chen Zaidao were of the same age and had similar positions. He had some words, so he made an appointment to leave and search for a place to drink tea. Only General Zihan and Mr. Wu, the old and young, were silent and sat down.

After a long silence, Mr. Wu suddenly said, "Second Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely follow your wishes this time!"

General Zi Han's eyebrows shook and said, "How do you say this child? What does it mean to follow my wishes? What do I have?"

Mr. Wu said: "Second Grandpa, you have never been talking to me. If you can stay alone with me for a long time today, it would be really strange if you didn't keep your words in your heart."

General Zi Han stared at Mr. Wu for a long time, suddenly laughed and said, "You doll, have always been very smart, so tell me what's hidden in my heart."

Mr. Wu said: "Second Grandpa, you are so funny. When Grandpa was here just now, didn't you say that someone had degraded the prestige of my Wu family. This degraded the prestige of our Wu family. How could our Wu family do nothing happened before?"

General Zihan said in a deep voice: "Do you take your grandfather's words as an indifferent ear?"

Mr. Wu smiled: "The second grandfather is really good at joking. How dare I take my grandfather's words seriously? I remember my grandfather's words really. Grandpa said that now I can still be slimly in the temple. After decades, it will be in the temple and in the grass. The difference between heaven and earth. Since there is such a big gap between me and Xue in the future. Why should I keep him in the officialdom so that I can avoid being upset in the future?"

General Zi Han's eyes lit up suddenly. "Good boy, go and do it. The second grandpa must poke behind his back. I have always believed in your kid's methods!"

"Second grandpa, please hold on. This person surnamed Xue is in Sijiu City, and I really can't do anything to him. But when he goes down there, a dragon goes into the shallows. He can just call a loach torture him to death, and save you and me from getting dirty!"

"Hahaha……"

...

It was the third day of the first lunar month. Xue Pingyuan and his family had already gone to Mingzhu City yesterday, which is Xue Yuan and Xue Yang's grandfather's house. Tomorrow, Xue Xiang would go to Xiaoshan County. After all, he is in the officialdom now and is no longer free, and the county government has many skills. Moreover, Xue Laosan is responsible for the county's finances, and he is really burdened with a heavy burden on his shoulders, so he is naturally even more nervous.

After dinner, Xue Anyuan attended the Military Commission meeting and had not returned, only four brothers and sisters of the Xue family were left at home.

The room was full of charcoal. The space in the middle of the four-sided sofa was filled with gift boxes and the gift bags were squeezed out. The little guy jumped and ran around on the sofa, muttering something in his mouth, as if he was begging for the Buddha, and then he seemed to worship Guanyin again. What do you think? It turned out that the little guy and Xiao Yi were very bored and became interested in the pile of New Year gifts collected by the Xue family. The two decided to use this pile of things as a bet and stuff them into one game. Each person picked five items to see who picked the total price of the thing.

Xue Xiang and Xiaowan were forcibly dragged aside and became the referee. At this moment, the little guy and Xiaoyi had already picked up four pieces of each. Both of them were not sure about the move. They were not selected. They both picked up a bunch of tobacco, alcohol and snacks. Although the value was hard to predict, they were considered a draw, and they were the last one to choose. The little guy was particularly nervous. After all, the victory or defeat of this gambling game was not irrelevant, but they bet on the little guy's New Year's money for a year, which was a full hundred yuan. To this little guy, it was tantamount to being too cautious. How could he be careless?

The little guy jumped and wandered around the sofa on all sides. In the end, his dark eyes were still not fixed. Suddenly, Xiao Yi picked a blue box the size of a palm. When he opened it, he found that it was a golden dragon made of pure gold. The golden dragon flew freely, stepped on auspicious clouds, and had a very good meaning. Xue Xiang did not keep all the gifts in his heart, but who did this golden dragon came from. Because when Qiu Zhiguo gave this blue box, although he did not know any noble things in his box, he did not live in his ears and kept it carefully. There were many people and eyes, so don't lose it. The gift-giver said such words to him were nothing but a disguised emphasis on his gifts, so that he could attract the attention of the host.

But Xiaoyi pulled the golden dragon and hummed a little tune with joy. She didn't stop in her hand. Her index finger and thumb were constantly twisting, and she gestured to count money. The little guy was so angry that he screamed strangely, but Xiaoren was indifferent. The light and picturesque eyebrows immediately frowned into a ball, staring at various packaging like a mountain, and they were almost exploded. After searching for a long time, Xiaojian was still unscheming, but his eyes had a star, locked firmly on Xue Xiang. It seemed that the little man still remembered the unbreakable truth that "find a big guy when there was difficulty".

Xue Xiang saw the little guy's eyes flashing, but he was amused, but he didn't know how to help him. However, Xue Xiang knew not that the gifts contained in the box were expensive. Of course, Xue Xiang knew not that he had accurately recorded who gave what gifts, or had tested the gift list. Instead, Xue Laosan knew the habits of gift givers, especially this kind of trick of guessing gifts, just remember one thing: the smaller the box, the heavier the gifts, and guaranteed victory or defeat. After all, the Xue family is not as qualified as ordinary families. Those who are qualified to bring gifts to their doors are people with certain identities. They will definitely not just give away gifts, especially when giving gifts again, especially when giving small boxes, such as the expensive things in this box must not be expensive by quantity, and they are definitely rare things, such as the golden dragon in Xiaoyi's hand.

Therefore, as long as you rely on this iron rule, you can find precious items in the small box.

Although Xue Xiang knew this truth, he could tell the little guy without knowing it, but it was a huge difficulty. After all, Xiao Yi was eyeing him and decided not to allow the villain to blatantly rescue the soldiers.

But the little man stared at Xue Xiang for a long time, and saw that the big guy was indifferent and indifferent, he felt very displeased. In shame and annoyed, he bumped into Xue Xiang's arms, raised his white calves and kept swaying his calves, and his little head pressed against his arms like a turning point.

Xue Xiang finally found a good opportunity. With the help of the little guy, he took advantage of the situation and fell to his mouth quickly, and gently spit out the four words "The smaller the better". The little guy got the idea, and immediately crescent moon was curling. Suddenly, he remembered that Xiaoyi was still close, and his face changed color immediately. He continued to toss in Xue Xiang's arms for a while, until Xiaoyi couldn't help but urged "Select quickly, lose out of time". The little guy did the whole show, got up from Xue Xiang's arms and went to the mountain-like gift box.

But she saw her crawling into the gift box pile, first broke up dozens of gift boxes, and then directed Xue Xiang to move more than a dozen big people away, then spread a bunch of gift boxes all over the floor, then widened her eyes and searched on the ground, and finally her eyes settled on a small box wrapped in three inches of purple cardboard.

Soon after, the little guy picked up the small box, looked through it for a few breaths, and read: "Southeast Xiao Hu wishes Uncle Xue a prosperous journey and great success!"

If Xue Xiang saw this small box, he guessed that the gift must be unusual. When he listened to the little guy reading the words, he knew that the text was written on the box. In this way, he was even more certain that the things in it must be extraordinary. Otherwise, the gift-giving person would never leave a name on the box. After all, this behavior does not conform to the implicit style that Chinese people pay attention to when giving gifts. Obviously, the reason for this is just like Qiu Zhiguo giving Jinlong. I hope the Xue family remembers who gave the gift.

Xue Xiang thought about it carefully and realized that the Southeast Hu must be Hu Liming, who is the executive vice mayor in Pengcheng. To be honest, Xue Xiang’s new and old friends may not be together in the New Year, but there are quite a few phone calls. Among them, the gifts from each other to the Xue family have never been short, and even the Han River Su Xinghe, Liu Yong, Jingkou Hong Tianfa, Geng Fulin, and Chen Guangming are also willing to deliver them every year.

Xue Xiang was very curious about what Hu Liming gave, so he urged the little guy to open it. The little guy was holding the box and looking through it for a long time. When Xue Xiang heard Xue Xiang's urging, he rolled his eyes, but he acted as he said and dismantled it. Unexpectedly, Hu Liming's gift box was wrapped in extremely delicately, with layers of paper wrapping after layer, and three layers were exposed before a red hardwood box was exposed. When he opened the red hardwood box, he thought that a pink glass box would appear inside.

The little guy dismantled and dissolved it for a long time, and not only did he not get angry, but he became more and more excited. In fact, at this moment, not only the little man, but also Xiaowan and Xiaoyi also surrounded him, his eyes full of hope. After all, no one could see that the things in the box were extraordinary, otherwise he would not have been able to wrap them so much. After all, even if someone deliberately made a prank, he would never dare to play with his uncle.

Sure enough, the little guy gently opened the lid of the pink glass box, and a pool of water appeared in the box. The water was clear and pure and lush. Soon, the pink box turned into pure green. After a while, it seemed that the space of more than a meter in size, including the bright charcoal fire in front of the sofa, was also dyed, and the whole space seemed to be full of magical colors.

All three little girls were stunned, and Xue Xiang was also stunned. Soon after, he woke up, reached into the box, took out the green water, and came closer to see clearly the true appearance of the green water. It turned out to be a jade pendant about an inch long and three centimeters wide. The jade pendant was full of cloud patterns, with a dragon on one side and a phoenix on the other side, which was extremely gorgeous and magnificent.
