Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 635
It is controversial in which dynasty Mahjong was invented.

One said it was the Ming Dynasty, and the other said it was the Braid Dynasty.

But for Li Qinzai, mahjong was invented in the Tang Dynasty, and the inventor is a very remarkable person.

This character has made countless great achievements for the country, he was on the horse to rule the army, and he was off the horse to rule the people. While expanding the territory of the empire, he still did not forget to contribute to enriching the entertainment life of the people...

Although Li Ji is old and mature, but a man will be a teenager until his death, and a teenager will inevitably like to have fun.

The mahjong invented by Li Qinzai just catered to Li Ji's hobbies. It is nonsense to re-establish order in chaos. The important thing is that mahjong must be played by four people. The old man finally has someone to accompany him in his retirement life.

Soon, Li Ji, Li Siwen, Li Jingye and Li Qinzai sat on the four sides of the table.

After Li Qinzai explained the gameplay of mahjong to his father and cousin again, Li Siwen and Li Jingye seemed to understand but were eager to try.

"Before you play, you have to touch your wallet. For Chinese New Year, it's okay to play with money occasionally, as long as you don't get addicted." Li Ji said in a deep voice, stroking his beard.

Li Siwen and Li Jingye touched their money bags obediently, and each took out a string of copper coins and a few small silver cakes.

Li Qinzai smiled, looked at Li Siwen and said, "My child is inconvenient, so dad can lend me some..."

Li Siwen glanced at him coldly: "Get lost."

Li Jingye threw half a piece of silver cake over and said with a smile, "My cousin borrowed it from you."

Li Qinzai is inexplicably grateful, it is still the future of the British public structure, and then look at his unbelievable father, who took a concubine without telling his son, how dare he be so tyrannical...

The grandparents and grandchildren played at the same table for three generations. Because the three of them were not proficient, Li Qinzai did not talk about martial arts in the first few rounds. He won a lot of money from the three of them. He reckoned that a big dick was coming.

However, Li Qinzai still underestimated the ancients after all, and their IQ was no worse than him.

After a few games, the three of them gradually became familiar with the rules, and the wind direction on the poker table suddenly changed.

Li Qinzai was shot and robbed again, and finally he shot Li Ji all the time, and he returned all the money he won with just one shot.

Now Li Qinzai's eyes began to turn green.

I always feel like I dug a hole for myself, and he, the widow, is buried in the hole...

After familiarizing himself with the rules, Li Ji is so lucky that he can touch whatever he wants, and he can do whatever he wants. After two rounds, no matter the action of drawing cards or the boldness of pushing cards, he is no longer like a novice. He is a veteran who has been immersed in the mahjong world for many years.

He can actually touch blind with one hand and accurately tell the suit of the card, can you believe it?
A top person is a top person, no matter what he does, he can excel in anything, Li Ji finally let Li Qinzai see it this time.

After Li Qinzai lost the money that Li Jingye lent him, he realized that the most failed invention of his time travel so far was probably mahjong, and he really cheated himself.

The next step is to simply teach the old man to dance in the square, and he is not afraid of not having a partner. There are so many famous generals and veterans in Chang'an City, and their wives are still alive. Is it too much for Li Ji to dance a few dances with the wives of Paoze comrades?

Nothing too much, just normal social interaction.

Good idea, but a little grandpa Fei...

"The old man is fooling around again, hehe, thirty cents per person, come, give me the money." Li Ji stroked his beard and said with a smile.

Li Siwen and Li Jingye gave the money honestly, and at the same time glanced at Li Qinzai resentfully.

Li Qinzai had already lost everything, so naturally he would not make any moves to withdraw money.

"Grandpa, grandson invented this thing, the original intention is to make grandpa happy when he is old, and to have someone to accompany you to pass the boring time..."

Li Qinzai tried his best to organize his words: "Although playing with money is all right, but after all, it lost the original intention of grandson. Grandpa can't put the cart before the horse. This thing is mainly for entertainment..."

Li Ji stroked his beard and sneered: "I've been talking nonsense for a long time, but I just want to renege on my debt."

Li Qinzai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The grandson has no money."

"Go back and ask your mother-in-law for money. It's not embarrassing for a real man to have money in his pocket." Li Ji said contemptuously.

"Grandpa forced his grandson to pay off his gambling debts. Isn't this... a bit beastly?"

"Bastard! It's Chinese New Year's Eve, don't force the old man to smoke."

Li Siwen said sternly from the side: "Father, smoke whenever you want, don't care about the season, the beast has been floating around recently, so it should be beaten."

Li Ji glanced at him again, and said: "The old man thinks you should smoke more, and take a concubine who is the same age as your son, heh, it's really enough to give Li's parents face."

Li Siwen immediately bowed his head, as well-behaved as a baby in his 40s.

Li Ji reached out to touch a mahjong tile, closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and suddenly opened his eyes: "[-]!"

The card was turned over, and it was thirty thousand.

Li Qinzai immediately praised: "Grandpa is very skilled!"

Li Ji snorted, and said lightly: "Siwen, your concubine came to Chang'an after you somehow, what's on her mind?"

Li Siwen's expression changed, his lips pursed a few times, but he didn't say anything.

Li Qinzai's eyes widened in surprise, and then he looked in admiration.

I can't accept it, the old man has lived to this age, and the world's sophistication has been fully understood, and many things can be seen through at a glance.

You can't look at the surface when looking at people. Since Zhao Daoyun entered the Duke's Mansion, he has always been cautious, speaking and doing things very humble, always looking at other people's faces.

But Li Ji's views coincided with Li Qinzai's.

That's right, she sneaked all the way from Runzhou to Chang'an, what on earth was she thinking?Don't talk about deep love and infatuation, all the people present here are adults, not ignorant and hot-blooded young men.

In Li Ji's eyes, Zhao Daoyun's carefulness can be seen at a glance. For the parents of the rich and powerful, this is called irresponsibility and should be guarded against.

The atmosphere suddenly got a little awkward.

Li Jingye looked at his grandfather, then at his second uncle Li Siwen, and found that this topic was not easy to interrupt as a junior, so he smoothed things over and said, "Grandpa, second uncle, continue playing cards."

Li Ji didn't continue this topic anymore, he laughed and said, "Okay, okay, let's continue playing cards."

But Li Qinzai pushed the mahjong set in front of him, turned his head to look at the sky outside, and murmured: "Hey, I seem to hear my mother calling me to eat..."

Under the unkind eyes of the three, Li Qinzai stood up bravely and walked away muttering.

…………

New Year's Eve, family reunion.

This year, the heavens favored the Li family especially. Back then when Li Qinzai made the God Arm Bow, everyone in the court heard that the Li family had a unicorn. This year, the qilin finally took off.

From then on, from Li Ji down, Li Qinzai could serve as an important branch of the Li family and set up a separate house, paving the way for the Li family to expand.

In the year of great joy, it should be a white day.
