Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

Chapter 105: A Fundamental Solution 2

“Let’s continue. Why wouldn’t I?” Qi Qingyao took out a stack of paper money from her bosom, her demeanor that of an affluent and imposing individual who was not afraid of losing. Sifting through the notes, she took out one and placed it at the center of the table as her betting amount. “I’ll bet one hundred taels this round. What about you?”

“One hundred taels…”

While Zhang Tieyuan whispered the number, his eyes were instead glued on the stack of paper money in Qi Qingyao’s hand. He seemed to be even more excited than when his wife had given birth to a son.

When the others saw Qi Qingyao’s stack of paper money, their eyes almost popped out.

The f*ck.

Heir Pei was so generous with his money. How much did he even give you for the consultation?

Qi Qingyao smiled and said, “The rules are the same as before. If you win, you can take the one hundred taels but if you lose, you will return the seventy-two taels to me.”

Zhang Tieyuan was a little hesitant.

Zhang Cuiyun who was standing behind him whispered apprehensively, “Father, let’s not gamble anymore this time. We already have 72 taels. We can buy a shop in Qingzhou City and still keep our farm and land.”

Zhang Tieyuan’s eyes were fixed on that single banknote and the rest of the paper money in Qi Qingyao’s hand. Qi Qingyao was a little fat sheep—to not slaughter it would be foolish. “That’s one hundred taels there. Don’t you want 172 taels?” He turned around and snapped at his daughter.

Zhang Cuiyun was also a little intrigued.

She had also seen Qi Qingyao for what she was. “I haven’t gambled before” and “I don’t know how to gamble”, she was just a rich and fat sheep. A fat sheep that had completely fallen into the pitfall of gambling. The more she gambled, the more she wanted to earn the money back and so she dumped money into the pile again and again. Zhang Cuiyun knew, however, that if Qi Qingyao continued to scatter her money like this, she would only fall into the pit dug by her father and lose all her money. It would all become her father’s money.

Her father was right, it was hard to come by a fat sheep who did not know how to gamble.

That…

When others noted that the old Zhang family was still going to continue gambling, they all began tasting something.

The sour taste of jealousy.

“Old Man Zhang, I think you should quit while you’re ahead.”

“That’s right. One should practice moderation. What if you lose? You’d have none of the 72 taels. Don’t you see?”

One hundred taels. They could not allow this fellow to continue gambling. If he gambled anymore, Old Man Zhang’s family really would be insanely rich…

“Don’t be too greedy, a man who is never content is like a snake trying to swallow an elephant.”

“It’s impossible for one to keep winning, be careful before something bad happens!”

It was impossible for the words spoken by the bystanders to reach Zhang Tieyuan’s heart at this time. All he could think was that these people were jealous. They were jealous that his family was about to achieve insurmountable success and were unbearably envious.

Everyone realized that Zhang Tieyuan would not budge and could only begin advising Qi Qingyao.

“Qi Qingyao, I don’t think you should gamble anymore. If you lose this time, you’ll lose one hundred taels. It’s one hundred taels, you could buy a lot of things with that, don’t you know?”

“I disagree, I don’t think I’ll lose this round.” Qi Qingyao’s expression was one of a gambler’s pigheadedness.

It left the crowd speechless.

They could only keep their thoughts to themselves, hoping that she would win quickly.

It did not matter if she had money. She got lucky once and Heir Pei gave this money to her but now… this gambling addict Zhang Tieyuan was about to make a f*cking fortune and everyone could not stand for it.

Zhang Tieyuan looked at the 172 taels, eyes glowing with greed. “I want to gamble with you, I also don’t believe I’d lose,” he said seriously.

Saying that, he continued, “Who goes first?”

“I’ll go first.”

As usual, Qi Qingyao shook the dice cup first.

After that, Zhang Tieyuan was responsible for opening the dice cup and reading the points.

“Hahahaha, it’s one, two, three, six on the low again. Young lady, you’re really luckless today. You should go to a koi temple to offer your prayers later.”

Everyone else, “…” How unlucky. Things have played out like this yet she still wanted to gamble. Sigh, it was over. Old Man Zhang is about to strike gold again. His luck was too f*cking good.
