Chapter 145 Dragon Boat Bet
Watching Tian Jingshu and his group of people, the Shen brothers and sisters successfully found the coloring shed in Renyi Bo Mansion. Tao Kan went to accompany him. Tao Run and the pregnant Wu family stayed behind the Bo Mansion. Huang went to another coloring shed to send rice dumplings. In the coloring shed were old master Tao, old lady Tao, Jin, Tao Ze, Tao Shen and Tao Hang. The Shen brothers and sisters came. After a politeness, Tao Shen peeled a rice dumpling and handed it to Chen Danxia, "Sister Nine, guess what stuffing is rice dumplings?"
"I only eat meat stuffing." Chen Danxia twitched.
"It's meat stuffing, you can try it." Tao Shen smiled.
"Thank you, my third cousin." Chen Danxia smiled and took the rice dumplings. He took a big bite and saw the meat filling.
"Auntie, you are amazing, you are so greedy." Tao Hang praised in an incongruous manner.
"What a nonsense? Is there anyone who says that about your aunt? Your aunt is not a man, so she is so big. Your aunt obviously has a cherry mouth." Tao Ze gave her son a thrill.
Everyone started to laugh.
"Big cousin!" Chen Danxia heard the first half of the sentence, but when he heard the second half of the joke, he stomped his feet without hesitation.
"Jiu'er, be good at it, let's ignore them, let's drink some rose dew." Jin said coaxing her.
"Thank you aunt." Chen Danxia put down the rice dumplings and took the cup with both hands.
Shen Baimi and Shen Baiyu also ate a rice dumpling. Huang came back. Then Tao Qing and Yuan Jili came with her two boys. The two boys happily ran to Chen Danxia to call her aunt. Chen Danxia took out dried grapes and fruits from his purse, and each of them stuffed a piece of them.
The two boys of the Yuan family, the two boys of the Tao family, and Tao Shen, who was in the rebellious period, became more and more trouble. Mrs. Tao smiled and said, "Okay, okay, since you are out, you monkeys will go out and have fun. Protect Jiuer well and don't go to places with a lot of people."
"Grandma, I'll go with you." Tao Ze stood up and said. Mrs. Tao knew that Changsun had always been steady, so she was completely relieved.
After leaving the colorful shed and wandering around, because the emperor and the empress were coming, the guards were too strict, and the vendors dared not approach here, which was less fun. Fortunately, after a while, the lion dance team came, and the drums were beaten very lively. The lion dance team followed by six groups of naval masters, each group of seven people, wearing different colors and five poison patterns, and the leader held drum beats tied with colorful ribbons as their clothes.
"Second brother, do you think that person is Brother Lang?" Chen Danxia asked as he patted Shen Bomi.
Shen Bomi narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "It's Lang Ge'er."
"I didn't expect that Lang Ge'er would also participate in the competition this year. I thought he was not interested." Tao Ze smiled. Chen Danxia raised his eyebrows slightly, knowing why Xu Lang asked her to come to the Dragon Boat Festival.
"Do you want to support Lang Ge'er's group?" Tao Shen squeezed over and asked.
"How to support it?" Chen Danxia asked in confusion.
"Sister Nine, don't you not know that you can bet on winning or losing in the dragon boat race, right?" Tao Shen asked in surprise.
"I don't know what's strange, and no one told me." Chen Danxia glanced at him.
Tao Shen laughed twice, "Don't be upset with Sister Ninth, my third cousin tells you now, listen, six teams participate in the dragon boat competition every year, they wear red, blue, blue, gray, brown and brown respectively. The ones wearing red clothes are the first team last year, and the other five teams were selected in the preliminary round. The six teams draw lots and compete in two pairs. The shortest time among the three winning teams directly advance to the finals. The remaining two teams compete one more and decide the other finals. These two teams will play the finals again. Here, you can place bets on winning and losing, with a minimum of fifty taels of silver per bet. How about it, do you want to play a few games? Win some money and buy a jewelry."
"My sister doesn't need silver to buy jewelry." Shen Bomi was unhappy with Tao Shen instigating Chen Danxia to gamble.
"Who would think there was too much money?" Tao Shen replied to him.
"Second brother, it's okay to have fun gambling. It's okay to play. Don't let it go so badly?" Shen Baiyu is also a playful person.
"My brother, it's okay, it's just like this one a year." Tao Ze helped persuade.
Shen Bomi compromised, "You can play with it, but you are not allowed to get addicted."
"I know, I know." Shen Baiyu smiled.
"But I didn't bring the silver." Chen Danxia didn't care whether he won the money or not. She just supported Xu Lang, but she didn't know about this before, so she only brought a few taels of silver, a few silver peanuts and silver melon seeds on her body.
"If my elder brother asks you to lend me, my elder brother must have brought the silver notes." Tao Shen said to her for advice.
"Big cousin, the best big cousin." Chen Danxia smiled at Tao Ze so flatteringly.
"How much do I borrow?" Tao Ze asked with a smile.
Chen Danxia calculated and asked, "Is there five hundred?"
"Yes." Tao Ze took out a few silver notes, picked out a denomination of 500 taels from it and handed it to her, "Five hundred is enough?"
"Enough." Chen Danxia smiled.
Shen Baiyu smiled with a saliva and said, "Big cousin, I'll borrow five hundred."
"No." Tao Ze stuffed the silver notes back into his purse.
"Big cousin, you can't be so partial. I'm also your kissing cousin. Even if you don't lend me five hundred, you can lend me three hundred." Shen Baiyu grabbed Tao Ze's arm and said.
"One hundred." Tao Ze bargained with him.
"Two hundred and five." Shen Baiyu lowered his requirements.
"One hundred and five, just borrow it, just borrow it, just forget it if you don't." Tao Ze said calmly.
Shen Baiyu gritted his teeth, "Borrow it, it's better than 15 yuan."
Tao Ze took out a silver note with a denomination of 100 taels and a denomination of 50 taels for him.
"Big cousin, do you always carry so many silver notes?" Chen Danxia thought Tao Ze was really a rich man.
"Do it occasionally." Tao Ze smiled.
"Sister Nine, which team do you bet?" Tao Shen asked excitedly.
"Blue Team." Chen Danxia wanted to support Xu Lang, who was dressed in blue.
"All in?" Tao Shen asked.
"The semi-final bets of two hundred and three hundred in the final." Chen Danxia handed him the silver bill.
"You are so confident in Xu Lang. Are you so sure that he can enter the final?" Tao Shen asked.
"I believe in him." Chen Danxia smiled.
Shen Bomi inexplicably felt a sour feeling and frowned.
Shen Baiyu handed the silver notes to Tao Shen, "I will bet the Red Team, and I will bet all."
"Okay, I know, I'll go and place a bet." Tao Shen and the servant squeezed out of the crowd.
