Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“Yue’er is right! You can’t win against me, so you lost fair and square!” He said proudly.
Then, he turned to look at his granddaughter.
“If I win, I’ll buy you and Xiaozhi delicious food!”
“Hehe, alright! Then you should win more!” Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes lit up, and she cheered Liu Wuji on.
“Haha! Alright!” Liu Wuji agreed readily.
This interaction made everyone else’s teeth ache.
Was it really okay to say that he wanted to win their money in front of them?
Lin Xiaoyue’s arrival made the mahjong table lively.
Cheers and laughter filled the courtyard.
In the evening, the game finally ended.
In the end, the three families combined, and the Imperial Advisor became the only winner, winning more than 200 taels of silver.
After counting the silver and banknotes, he happily put the banknotes and silver into his purse.
He was considered a rich man now.
He would go to town the next day with his granddaughter.
Then, he would spend money on his granddaughter and grandson.
The crowd who had yet to leave the venue felt their teeth ache when they saw the state he was in.
Was this greedy old man really the high and mighty Imperial Advisor of the capital?
Lin Xiaoyue wasn’t surprised. She just went forward to congratulate his grandfather on winning money.
Her sweet words pleased him. He even took out 5 taels of silver and rewarded her.
He said that he would follow them to town tomorrow to spend money for the siblings.
Lin Xiaoyue said, “grandpa is the best,” which made the old man happy.
After a while, Lin Xiaozhi came back from school.
He also received 5 taels of silver from the old man.
Then, when he heard that the old man was going to town tomorrow to spend money for him and his sister, Lin Xiaozhi was very happy.
The old man couldn’t stop smiling when he heard him calling him grandpa.
Prince and Princess Anyang were already used to it.
After finishing dinner with the Liu family, they left for Qingshi Town.
It wasn’t that they didn’t want to stay overnight in the Liu residence, but there were too many people and they couldn’t accommodate more people.
The next day.
Liu Wuji woke up early.
After having breakfast with everyone, he brought Lin Xiaoyue and Lin Xiaozhi into the carriage.
They had agreed yesterday that he would bring the two children to town today and spend money on them.
He would not go back on his word.
As soon as the carriage set off, Liu Wuji asked Lin Xiaoyue if there was anything fun or delicious in Qingshi Town.
“I don’t know about fun, but the delicious food is the snacks that we have in Liu’s Express.” Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
She wasn’t boasting.
She was famous in Qingshi Town. Everyone loved her.
Even some people from the countryside who went to the town market would go there to satisfy their cravings or buy some food for their children.
Liu Wuji was stunned.
He looked at Lin Xiaozhi and saw that the child was nodding.
“There’s already food at home from the restaurant. There’s no point in eating it again. Let’s do something else.” Liu Wuji said.
Lin Xiaozhi immediately looked at Lin Xiaoyue, his eyes filled with anticipation.
“I don’t know anything else.” Lin Xiaoyue said, disappointed.
“But it doesn’t matter. When we reach the Liu residence, we’ll ask Head Fang and the others. Someone will know.”
Hearing this, the expressions of the two of them improved a little.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Lin Xiaozhi again.
“You only have one day off. Don’t tire yourself out today. Otherwise, you won’t be able to get up tomorrow.” He said.
Coincidentally, his grandfather won money, and Xiaozhi had a break.
Otherwise, even if he wanted to bring Xiaozhi to town, it would be impossible.
Lin Xiaozhi immediately pouted.
“Yes.”
When Liu Wuji saw this, he pulled a long face.
“Since it’s a holiday, let’s play. Let’s talk about tomorrow’s matters tomorrow.”
Without waiting for Lin Xiaoyue’s reply, Liu Wuji looked at Lin Xiaozhi and said, “besides, how much can the academy teach you?”
“When I return in the future, I will personally teach Xiaozhi. I will definitely make Xiaozhi a pillar of the Great Yan!” After he finished speaking, Liu Wuji reached out and patted Lin Xiaozhi’s head.
Lin Xiaozhi didn’t dodge and happily let his grandfather pat his head.
Lin Xiaoyue couldn’t help but laugh when she saw this.
Then, she put on a straight face.
“I know you love Xiaozhi, grandpa. But your method of education is not good..”
