Old Zhao looked troubled.
"I'll talk to my father!"
Old Zhao nodded and hurried in the direction of the Duke Zhao Residence.
The gambling den would definitely not place such a large amount of money.
After some time, Old Zhao rushed back and handed a small wooden box to Zhangsun Chong.
Seeing this wooden box, many gamblers in the gambling den's eyes lit up. However, the last bit of rationality warned them that this was not something they could touch.
Zhangsun Chong opened the wooden box to check and found that the amount was correct. He threw it to Cheng Chuyu coldly.
Cheng Chuyu asked Fang Yiai to calculate. It was a total of ten million taels, no more, no less.
Seeing Cheng Chuyu nod, Li Lizhi smiled in satisfaction."Thank you, cousin."
Zhangsun Chong squeezed out a stiff smile.
Cheng Chuyu glanced at Zhangsun Chong and said to Li Lizhi,""Let's go."
Li Lizhi nodded and left the casino with Cheng Chuyu and the others.
Zhangsun Chong's face turned ashen when he saw the mess in the gambling den.
Cheng Chuyu, I'm not done with you!
...
...
Cheng Chuyu and the others went to nearly ten gambling houses and spent almost a day to finally withdraw all the money they had won.
The other gambling dens did not place too much bets, so it went very smoothly. Only the Hou family deliberately waited a little longer, but they did not dare to hold back.
All the money added up to nearly twenty-five million taels.
Cheng Chu Yu and the others had undoubtedly become the biggest winners in this tournament's gambling.
When they returned to the Cheng Residence, in Cheng Chuyu's courtyard, everyone excitedly began to divide the loot.
Nearly 25 million taels, Cheng Chuyu took the bulk of the 5 million taels, Fang Yiai, Yuchi Baolin, Chai Zhewei and the others each took about 2 million taels, and the rest were the others.
Everyone was grinning from ear to ear when they received a large stack of money.
Cheng Chuyu handed a large wad of money to Li Lizhi.""Here, I'll give you a million taels of silver.”
Yuchi Baolin and the others also had the same idea. They took some money and planned to pass it to Li Lizhi.
After all, if it wasn't for Li Lizhi, it wouldn't have been so easy to get the money from the Zhangsun Clan's gambling den.
"I don't need it." Li Lizhi shook her head.”
"Weren't you a money-grubber before?" Cheng Chuyu laughed.”
Li Lizhi stuck out her tongue." I just thought it was fun. I don't really want your money."”
"You said it yourself. Don't turn hostile and ask me again in the future.”
"I'll keep it with you first. Anyway, I'll take care of your money in the future.”
"Who's going to give you the money?"
"I don't care. In any case, I'm going to manage the money in the future.”
......
When they saw the two of them 'flirting' openly, Yuchi Baolin and the rest bid farewell and slipped away.
They didn't want to stay here and eat dog food.
After teasing for a while, Cheng Chuyu said seriously,"I want to see my mother. Are you staying here or going with me?”
Li Lizhi hesitated.
"Let's go together," Cheng Chuyu teased."Even an ugly daughter-in-law has to see her parents-in-law. She can't escape."”
"You're the ugly one!" Li Lizhi's face turned red.”
However, she still nodded.
......
Cheng Chuyu brought Li Lizhi to meet Mrs. Cheng in the main courtyard.
Besides Mrs. Cheng, Cheng Chuyu's three sisters-in-law were also there.
"Mother, I've brought your future daughter-in-law.”
Hearing this, Li Lizhi, who had already taken off her hat, blushed to her ears. She lowered her head and did not dare to look at Mrs. Cheng.
Mrs. Cheng rolled her eyes at her mischievous son and walked to Li Lizhi's side. She held Li Lizhi's hand and looked at her carefully. Her eyes were filled with satisfaction.
Li Lizhi's face turned even redder. Her small hands pinched the corner of her clothes, and she was at a loss.
Seeing Li Lizhi's embarrassment, Cheng Chuyu chuckled.""Quick, call the mother-in-law."
Li Lizhi was embarrassed. She glared at Cheng Chuyu and secretly stepped on his foot.
However...
"Future mother-in-law…"
Her voice was as soft as a mosquito.
However, Mrs. Cheng still heard it.
Mrs. Cheng beamed and replied cheerfully,"Hey!"
The three sisters-in-law were all smiles.
"Come, Lizhi, sit."
Mrs. Cheng pulled Li Lizhi to sit beside her.
"Are you thirsty?"
"Are you hungry?"
"Are you cold? Do you want to get the servants to bring a brazier in to warm your body?”
“...”
As soon as she sat down, Mrs. Cheng asked about her well-being and the three sisters-in-law were also concerned.
Li Lizhi had never seen such a scene before. She wanted to shake her head, but she was afraid that it would chill the hearts of these elders. She couldn't help but look at Cheng Chuyu with a pleading gaze.
"Mother, sisters-in-law, you're so enthusiastic that you're almost scaring her." Cheng Chuyu smiled.”
Hearing this, Mrs. Cheng and the three sisters-in-law realized that they had been too enthusiastic and looked apologetic.
Seeing this, Li Lizhi quickly shook her head and said,"No, no, don't listen to his nonsense.”
After saying that, she even secretly glared at Cheng Chuyu, causing trouble for her.
Mrs. Cheng smiled gently." Lizhi, don't be so nervous. Just treat this as your own home. If you need anything, just let us know."”
"Alright."
She nodded her little head lightly.
Perhaps it was because of Mrs. Cheng's gentle voice, Li Lizhi suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Yu 'Er, you can go down first. We'll have a chat with Lizhi."”
Cheng Chuyu could only nod and leave.
As soon as he left the main courtyard, he saw Cheng Yaojin and his three brothers walking back.
"Fourth brother, I saw the Thousand Bull Guards in plain clothes outside the mansion. I also heard from the servants that you brought a girl back. Could it be the Changle Princess?"”
Cheng Chuyu nodded." I'm chatting with my mother and sisters-in-law in the main courtyard now."”
Cheng Chubi gave him a thumbs up." You're not married yet and you're already married. You're good."”
Cheng Yaojin's face was flushed red." As expected of my son. He has my style."”
Cheng Chuyu smiled helplessly and handed over two million taels to Cheng Yaojin.
"Previously, I borrowed 100,000 taels from mother. Please help me pass this money to mother as a subsidy for the family.”
Cheng Yaojin borrowed the money and frowned.”
"I bet on myself to win during the competition and earned quite a bit.”
"Shameless."
Cheng Yaojin laughed.”
Cheng Chuyu rolled his eyes and took out another 300,000 taels. He handed them to Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Chumo."This 300,000 taels is for you and your three brothers.”
"This is a good relationship."
Cheng Yaojin saw that no one was around and quickly took it. Without any hesitation, he planned how to hide the money from Madam.
"How can I do that?"
"That's right. You're too polite."
"I'm ashamed to accept it."
Cheng Chumo and the other two said no, but their hands were very honest.
The few of them were also controlled by their wives, and their situation was actually similar to Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Chuyu laughed and left after chatting for a while.
With the remaining 2.7 million taels, he had to plan what to do.
