The sun was a ball of fiery red, hanging high in the sky, scorching hot.
After watching the movie, Gao Jin was once again impressed by the style of the "God of Gamblers". He only wondered when he could be so powerful!
He took out a deck of poker cards from his pocket and imitated the moves of Zhou Yun Fa in the movie. He tried to play the trick of shuffling the cards with two hands. Unfortunately, the moment he moved his hands, the cards in his hands flew out like a fairy scattering flowers. Two of them almost fell into the river.
Gao Jin was shocked. He quickly bent down and reached out to pick up the cards that were stuck in the stones by the river.
Gao Jin wiped his sweat and cursed the weather. Suddenly, he looked at the clear river and couldn't help but feel a little sad and resentful."Why didn't I learn to swim back then? If he knew how to swim, he would have jumped into the river. Damn, that feeling was so refreshing.
Gao Jin quivered. He stood up and kicked a small stone by the river. He put the MP4 and playing cards into his suit pocket and turned around.
Gao Jin entered the courtyard door and saw Zhu Er sitting on the threshold picking vegetables. Thinking about it, he couldn't be lazy and only eat and not work, right? He walked over and squatted down beside Zhu 'er, reaching out to pick up a wild vegetable from the bamboo basket, pretending to pick it up.
His hands were busy, and his heart was still thinking about the experience of shuffling the cards by the river. He was a little annoyed. He had clearly done it according to the movie, so why couldn't he hold the cards?
Zhu 'Er had already seen Gao Jin when he entered the door. After a while, she saw him squatting down beside her to help pick vegetables. Her pretty face blushed, and her long eyelashes drooped down. Her eyes flickered with a thick shyness, but she didn't even have the courage to look up at Gao Jin.
She only stared at the man's large hands that were picking vegetables.
Brother Gao's hands are so beautiful. His fingers are as slender as a girl's pink fingers! Zhu 'er had just finished sighing when she saw that pair of hands throwing the plucked vegetable roots into the basket, and then throwing the vegetables onto the ground.
Zhu 'er was stunned, then she laughed out with a' pffft 'sound. She raised her eyes and looked at Gao Jin shyly, and said: "Brother Gao, why did you throw the vegetables away? Do you want to eat the roots?”
Gao Jin was stunned when he heard that. He looked at the wild vegetables on the ground and blushed. He smiled awkwardly and reached out to pick up the wild vegetables and put them into the basket. He said slowly,"This…this is my apologies! I was thinking about something just now, so…"
"Big Brother Gao doesn't need to apologize, this isn't a big deal, Zhu Er was just joking!”Zhu 'er smiled understandingly. After saying that, she hesitated for a while before saying: "Big Brother Gao, go practice your gambling skills. Zhu Er can do this cooking job!”
Gao Jin suddenly stared at Zhu 'er and said with a smile: "Zhu Er, you…do you not like gambling?”
Zhu 'er was shocked, her face turned pale, she raised her eyes and looked at Gao Jin in panic, she was so anxious that she was about to cry, she said in a trembling voice: "Big…Big Brother Gao, I…I didn't! I just…just…"
Therefore, when he saw Zhu 'Er's eyes turn red and tears rolling in her eyes, and it seemed that she could not help but fall, Gao Jin was a little flustered. He quickly reached out to grab Zhu' Er's jade-like hand and apologized: "I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Don't cry! Good Zhu 'er, don't cry, okay?"
Gao Jin wiped his eyes and apologized repeatedly. He was flustered and very funny.
Zhu 'er broke into a smile through her tears, shyly breaking free from Gao Jin's hand, and softly said: "I won't cry anymore!"
Gao Jin didn't care much about holding Zhu 'er's hand, but he often breathed a sigh of relief.
" Big Brother Gao, how did you know…that Zhu Er doesn't like…"
"You don't like gambling, right?”"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!" Gao Jin chuckled. Then in exchange, can you tell me why you don't like gambling? You can even say that you hate it?”
Indeed, Gao Jin was very surprised. After all, this was the gambling world. Who would hate gambling?
Wasn't the gambling world a world where everyone gambled? At least Gao Jin thought so, and he also got confirmation from Zhu 'er's father.
Here, if one was good at gambling, they could be conferred the title of nobility. They could go out on a tall horse and stay at home as servants. No one would not want to live such a life, right?
Moreover, if he obtained a world-recognized title, such as the Gambling Saint, he would be revered by everyone!
In such a world where everyone still liked to gamble, there was actually an unconventional little girl who hated gambling?!
Zhu 'er took a deep breath and put down the wild vegetables in her hand. She raised her head and stared at Gao Jin bravely, saying softly,"Brother Gao, do you want to hear my story?”
Gao Jin nodded and said,"Alright!"”
Zhu 'er smiled slightly, this smile was just like a peach blossom's delicate beauty, but there was an indescribable sadness.
"Originally, my family was also a wealthy family in Stone River Village. My mother also doted on me very much, and our family of three lived very happily! Now that she thought about it, it was the happiest time when she was young!”Zhu 'er said, her lips revealing a sweet smile.
"But later on, my father was not satisfied with being a lowly husband, so he gambled every other day. He wanted to practice gambling skills. When he ran out of money, he gambled on objects. When he ran out of objects, he gambled on…people! When I was seven years old, my father lost my mother to Li Er from the neighboring village. After my mother went to the Li family, she couldn't bear the humiliation and hanged herself! I…I didn't have a mother since then!”Zhu 'er said till here, a sad smile appeared on her face, her brows filled with worry.
Gao Jin was shocked. He didn't expect that there was really someone who used his wife as gambling capital? This…Zhu 'er's father, that old man, looks quite honest, but I didn't expect him to be so…crazy?
"Doesn't anyone care about this kind of thing?"
"This is how it is here! As long as you dare to gamble, you can read anything! It was just that some people often lost their lives because of gambling! In short, there was nothing that couldn't be bet on!”Zhu 'er snickered.
"No wonder!" Gao Jin muttered. No wonder Zhu Er hated gambling. If it was my mother who lost to someone else and died, I would probably go crazy, right?
It was also at this moment that Gao Jin, our future God of Gamblers, set the first principle of his gambling in the future:
I don't bet on people!
Zhu 'er smiled bitterly," I…hate gambling. I advised my father not to gamble. Actually, there's another thing. I'm afraid that one day, my father might lose to someone else!"”
"So, every day when your father comes back, the first thing you ask him is what he gambled and how he won or lost. "Is that so?" Gao Jin was very sympathetic to this girl at this time.
This beautiful woman lived in fear every day. She didn't know when her father would come back and tell her that she had become someone's family. Pack up and go!
After this heart-to-heart conversation, the relationship between the two of them suddenly became much better.
That night, Gao Jin waited until midnight, thinking that Zhu 'er and her father should have already gone to bed. Only then did he quietly open the door and leave the courtyard, coming to the riverside.
He took out his MP4 and watched a lecture on the technique of playing cards. Then, he took out his poker cards and started practicing by himself.
