The best old woman is too fierce, stepping on her ex-husband and beating up her traitorous son!

Chapter 37 The reason why you always lose cards

It was obvious that Li Xiaoyue just wanted Mrs. Gongsun to win a few games and make her happy.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Gongsun’s card skills were so bad, and her luck was also bad.

Aunt Cai lowered her head, dumbfounded.

The old lady is the kind of person who likes playing cards more and more the worse her skills are.

She could tell that Mrs. Li wanted the old lady to win, but the old lady never won.

"Old Madam, why don't we stop here today?" Li Xiaoyue finally couldn't bear it anymore. If she continued to win, she was worried that Old Madam Gongsun would lose in a hurry and overturn the table.

Mrs. Gongsun waved her hand, "Winning or losing doesn't matter, the key is to enjoy the process of playing cards."

It was so hard to find someone who was willing to play cards with her, so how could she let her go so easily?

"But..." Li Xiaoyue fought tremblingly and kept making trouble for Mrs. Gongsun, but she might not be able to win.

Fortunately, Grandma Cai won this round, and both Li Xiaoyue and Liu Changhuan breathed a sigh of relief.

After losing a large bag of copper coins in front of Mrs. Gongsun, Mrs. Gongsun stood up, stretched her neck and waist, and said, "That's it for today."

Li Xiaoyue and Liu Changhuan breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, "Old madam, are you deliberately letting me and Chang Huan win?"

Li Xiaoyue saw that she had won about half of Mrs. Gongsun's copper coins, Liu Changhuan had won a quarter, and Grandma Cai had won a quarter.

Mrs. Gongsun shook her head and sighed, "No, that's how good I am. The more I lose, the more I want to play. So every time I make a rule that if I lose a purse of copper coins while playing cards, I won't play."

Li Xiaoyue was stunned for a moment, and was actually a little speechless.

"Actually, this is not difficult. You are a smart person, how come you keep losing? Are there any problems?" Li Xiaoyue asked, she wanted to help this old lady who likes to play cards.

Otherwise, every time she plays cards, she will be on tenterhooks and lose the meaning of playing cards.

Mrs. Gongsun shook her head and laughed, "When I look at these cards, sometimes I get them wrong and it's a bit confusing."

Li Xiaoyue's eyes fell on the leaf cards, which were several layers of harder paper stuck together, and then various patterns and words were printed on them. Some patterns had different colors and different flowers.

Although it was a bit confusing, it would not be a mistake, unless...unless Mrs. Gongsun was color blind.

Li Xiaoyue pointed to red and asked: "Old madam, what color is this?"

Mrs. Gongsun looked different, "It's red!"

Li Xiaoyue pointed to the green card again, "What about this one?"

Mrs. Gongsun replied without hesitation: "Light purple!"

Li Xiaoyue pointed to other colors and found that Mrs. Gongsun had a very common red-green color blindness and misidentified different colors.

"Old madam, Xiaoyue has something she doesn't know whether to say or not."

Mrs. Gongsun saw that Aunt Cai, Li Xiaoyue, and Liu Changhuan all looked surprised, and hesitated slightly: "Xiaoyue, if you have something to say, just say it. Isn't it just losing cards? I'm used to it. If I don't get angry, don't take it to heart."

Li Xiaoyue then answered cautiously: "Actually, it's not that your card playing skills are not good, nor that the cards are too fancy, but that your eyes have wrong recognition of colors. If you don't believe me, ask Aunt Cai?"

Aunt Cai nodded, "Old madam, Madam Li just pointed out that the color was green for the second time, but you said it was light purple. It's because you can't tell the color of the cards, so you always play the wrong card. You mistakenly think of purple as blue." color."

"Ah?" Mrs. Gongsun shook her head and looked at Aunt Cai, "I used to be able to distinguish colors, and my painting skills are pretty good!" Aunt Cai nodded, "Yes, Mrs. Li, our old lady has no color. Misidentification.”

Li Xiaoyue is not a doctor. Although she knows that color blindness is divided into congenital and acquired, she talks about it too much and others do not understand it, and they think she is arrogant.

"Old madam, I'm just a country woman. How do you know why I can't recognize colors? Why don't you ask a doctor to ask?"

Mrs. Gongsun was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "What I'm saying is that you should see a doctor for eye problems. But the fact that you can find my problem proves that you are a careful observer and a thoughtful person."

Seeing that Mrs. Gongsun was not angry, Li Xiaoyue also comforted Mrs. Gongsun, "As long as you see things clearly and the colors are wrong, it's not a big problem."

"But...but I won't be able to play leaf cards like this anymore. I feel uncomfortable just thinking about it. Hey, when people get older, they have to use their brains, otherwise their heads will become numb."

"My son can't get married due to health reasons, and I don't have any grandchildren at home to accompany me to relieve my boredom. I can't even play cards. I feel bored just thinking about it."

Li Xiaoyue had an idea and smiled, "Old madam, when I go back, I will make a deck of cards, no need to distinguish colors, and it is more fun than leaf cards."

Mrs. Gongsun looked surprised, "If someone says this, I would suspect that they are lying, but if Madam Li says so, I believe it. After all, not everyone can use their brains to make new snacks."

"In order for the old lady to be happy, Xiaoyue must make it as soon as possible." Li Xiaoyue pursed her lips and smiled. If she likes leaf tiles, she must also like mahjong.

Mrs. Gongsun was very happy and was very enthusiastic during lunch.

In the afternoon, Li Xiaoyue left with Liu Changhuan, but Mrs. Gongsun was still reluctant to leave. She urged Li Xiaoyue to come often.

Aunt Cai helped Mrs. Gongsun walk in the garden, "Old madam, what do you think of Mrs. Li?"

"Xiaoyue, haha, she is a character." Mrs. Gongsun chuckled, "She is full of ingenuity. She was hindered by men before. Now that she is free, there will be more surprises in the future."

Aunt Cai was surprised, "You speak highly of Mrs. Li, which is really rare."

Mrs. Gongsun squinted her eyes and looked into the distance, "I won't be wrong, let's wait and see."

"By the way, don't forget to give some things that Madam Li and my granddaughter can use during the next New Year and holidays. When we get more familiar with each other, I'll take Chang Huan over. If we get to know each other more, we can get closer in the future."

This is her first grandchild. Although she is not her biological child, the relationship between people is actually very simple.

Treat Liu Changhuan well, and Liu Changhuan will naturally remember the kindness of the Gongsun family in his heart. In the future, when his son gets old, he will at least have an adopted daughter to care about.

"Yes, madam." Aunt Cai raised the status of Lady Li's family a little higher in her heart.

Mr. Gongsun took Li Xiaoyue and others to a shop in the county town.

Coincidentally, it is right opposite the Wang family silk and satin shop.

However, due to Widow Wang's absence, the business of Wang's Silk and Satin Shop has become much less busy, and it is no longer as busy as before.

Li Xiaoyue hesitated, "Mr. Gongsun, the location of this shop is too good, isn't it? This place is good for other businesses, but it's a bit wasteful to use it to sell stoves and briquettes."

Mr. Gongsun smiled and said, "Don't waste it. This is a shop with three fronts. Separate one room and put some samples of the stove. As for the briquettes, avoid unloading them back and forth. Let people pay first to determine the quantity, and then you can all ask them to start from Lihua Village brings briquettes here and delivers them to customers. It doesn’t take up any space and it’s clean.”

"You have a lot of ingenuity in the other two. Think about it and do other businesses. I believe you will definitely bring more surprises in the future."

Li Xiaoyue smiled and had to say that it felt good to be trusted by others. "Thank you Mr. Gongsun. I will try my best not to betray Mr. Gongsun's trust!"

But just after saying this, Li Xiaoyue saw a man walking out of the Wang family silk and satin shop angrily. He looked like a dog. He was burned to ashes, and Li Xiaoyue could recognize it!
