Chapter 563: Tea and the Lottery

Father Liu squeezed out a smile and greeted Bai Lu: "Go wash your face first, and hurry over to eat." ”

Bai Lu responded and looked at the wall clock on the wall of the living room...... Six o'clock, just six o'clock, your old man made such a bunch of food?

When he entered the door last night, Daddy Liu behaved very lightly, as if he didn't care at all. As everyone knows, men's care is different from women's care, and it is mostly hidden in the heart. I obviously like my girl coming back, or I like my girl to bring her boyfriend home, but I don't say much, I say it all in action.

After a while, Liu Wenqing came out of the bathroom, Bai Lu went in to wash his face, and heard that in the living room, Liu's father asked Liu Wenqing: "How long have you known each other?"

Bai Lu was embarrassed again, this is the rhythm of madness.

Liu Wenqing grabbed a bun and took a bite, and replied vaguely: "What, what, how is my mother?"

Father Liu said: "Your mother is fine, it will be much better to go to the hospital, I came back at nine o'clock last night, you eat first, and I will bring food to your mother." ”

"Let's go. Liu Wenqing greeted Bai Lu: "Have you washed it?"

Father Liu said angrily: "Is there such a thing as you? Wash your face and urge, let you not be allowed to eat? You can eat with peace of mind, I will go to the hospital first." As he spoke, he took a cloth bag and went out.

Bai Lu hurriedly walked out of the bathroom to block: "Wait." "Went into the room to get the bag, grabbed the two buns: "Let's go together." ”

Liu Wenqing also went into the house to get the bag, and also grabbed two buns and went out.

Father Liu looked at it, shook his head and said, "This kid." I don't know who Lu Dao is talking about, so I turned around and locked the door, and when I walked out, I asked, "Take a taxi?"

Liu Wenqing nodded: "That's for sure." ”

From home to the central hospital, it takes less than six minutes by taxi. One reason is that the city is small, and the other reason is that there are fewer cars in the morning.

Liu's mother lives in a six-person surgical ward, with three beds on one side and standing opposite each other.

Patients who wake up early, who are in a slightly mild condition or who are about to be discharged from the hospital, are already walking around, such as washing their faces, cooking and so on.

Seeing Father Liu enter the door, someone greeted: "It's here." ”

Father Liu replied with a smile and walked to Mother Liu's bed.

Liu's mother complained: "I said that I don't need to come over, just buy some casually, why are you coming so far?" complained to his wife. He beckoned to Liu Wenqing: "Come here." Look if my daughter has lost weight. Then he said: "If you are busy with work, you don't have to come back, how hard it is to run back and forth." ”

Liu Wenqing walked over with a smile: "Look at the old lady, shouldn't you?"

"Yes. When her daughter came back, Mother Liu was of course happy, and looked at Bai Lu again: "You sent her back?"

Bai Lu smiled and nodded. I found a wad of money in my bag: "I came in a hurry." Didn't buy anything. ”

He made a move. The people in the same ward couldn't believe it, there are always visitors in the hospital, but this is an ordinary ward. You shot a bunch, look at the thickness, at least more than 10,000, do you need to be so exaggerated?

Liu's mother was very happy, but still refused: "What is this for, I can't ask for your money." ”

Bai Lu smiled and said, "It's important to see a doctor. ”

Liu's mother said: "I'm not sick, I'm just in a hurry, and I fainted." ”

Liu's mother was dizzy, according to traditional Chinese medicine, it was a rush to attack the heart. As long as you are rescued, you can be discharged from the hospital after a few days of recuperation.

"Then buy something to eat. "You can't take back the money you take out.

Seeing Bai Lu's resolute attitude, Liu's mother said thank you and handed the money to Liu's father: "Put it away." ”

Father Liu hesitated a little: "Is this good?"

Bai Lu didn't give them a chance to talk about money, and asked Liu's mother: "What's wrong, why are you in a hurry?"

Mother Liu was a little embarrassed to talk about this, and said with a smile: "Anyway, it's nothing." ”

Seeing that Liu's mother looked very good, Bai Lu didn't ask much.

After Liu's mother had breakfast, she began to drive Liu's father away, with so much money in her pocket, put it away first. By the way, he drove away Liu Wenqing and Bai Lu, saying that it was a rare opportunity to have a good time in Dancheng for two days.

Seeing that my mother was really fine, she had taken blood before breakfast, and she didn't check it during the day, Liu Wenqing stayed with her for a while and went home with Bai Lu.

They left at about nine o'clock in the morning, and went home to ask their father what was going on.

Dad simply said that the matter is very simple, it is nothing more than a matter of money.

Dancheng is very small, and there are often people who walk around the rivers and lakes.

There is a small square to the north from Liu Wenqing's house, and behind the square is a vegetable market. In the morning or evening, people often dance or exercise in the small square.

In recent days, a corner of the small square has been rented by a merchant, saying that it is a big reward and attracting many people to watch the excitement.

What do they give back? Buy tea for a raffle.

To put it simply, it is to sell dog meat on the head of a sheep, and to gamble under the gimmick of selling tea. This gambling is similar to the lottery, two dollars a note, the winning compensation is forty yuan, the lottery is held on the spot, and you can earn dozens of dollars if you win.

Tea is a small packet, which is a regular qualified tea. Buy a pack to participate in the raffle, there are a total of thirty-six animals, giving you a riddle, usually four lines of poetry, for you to guess which animal. Then fill in the list to choose the animal, and after the lottery, you guess the riddle animal, which is to receive the money on the spot.

Not to mention that our country is full of talents, the law does not allow private lotteries, they changed to promotional activities, almost the same process as the lottery, only a small bag of tea.

In order to show its legitimacy, everywhere it goes, it is fanfare, a huge banner is pulled, and anything is written, such as a healthy tea reward quiz or something, and the activity begins.

There are leaflets, posters, and hosts, and the rules of the lottery are explained in detail. Then put together the 36 animals with the answer to the mystery on a large promotional poster, so that you can see clearly and guess at will. Each animal also has a nickname, such as light, pearl or something.

Anyway, people can understand what they are doing at a glance.

Such activities try to take advantage of the loopholes in the law and set a ceiling on the winnings, which is generally 5,000, and even if someone reports to the police, it cannot be dealt with as a gambling activity.

For example, if you buy a tiger, you buy 100 bets with the same bet, and 100 bets pay 4000, and 100 bets pay 4,000. If you win and take 4,000 yuan, it is a bonus, and it is not illegal; if you don't win a loss of 200 yuan, you buy tea, which is a commodity transaction.

Liu's mother saw the lottery when she was shopping for groceries. Looking at it, I was a little tempted.

Under normal circumstances, it takes up to an hour from buying tea to the lottery, and if there are a large number of people, a session will be opened in 40 minutes. Before selling tea, the dealer put the mystery in the box, and the box was hung high outside, so that everyone could see it, telling everyone that there was no action or foot. Then buy the tea.

The riddle is a four-line poem that guesses the animal based on the poem. It's hard to guess. Unleash your imagination. But it may not be successful. Fortunately, there are only thirty-six puzzles, and once you have the puzzles, the puzzles will be narrowed down again, and all you have to do is just guess. Guess once for two dollars.

It feels fair and just. Even if you know that Lu Dao is a gamble with one of the thirty-six choices, you are willing to join in the fun. and the lottery of 7 out of 36. Which is simpler?

Anyway, Liu's mother thinks this is more reliable than the lottery, even if she doesn't win, she can take home a bag of tea, right?

These kinds of activities are carried out for several days on end. If you occupy a place, you have to toss it for fun, after all, you need money to make money up and down, and you have to earn it back. After indulging in it, Liu's mother went to guess the riddle every afternoon.

From a few dozen yuan at the beginning, to a few hundred yuan later, in a week, Liu's mother lost more than 2,000 yuan.

Yesterday, Liu's mother wanted to fight and selected a certain animal to buy a hundred bets. So I guessed the riddle seriously. After guessing the most probable, one is a tiger and the other is an earthworm, thinking that these two are the most likely. I thought about choosing a tiger, but when I filled in the list, the ghost sent the god to choose the earthworm.

The result came out in a few minutes, and it was a tiger.

Liu's mother was so angry and excited that she fainted. She fainted, scared the dealer, quickly called 110 and 120, and then closed the stall and fled.

This kind of business must be dealt with in many ways, and the police will not arrest people after receiving benefits, but they cannot kill people.

Fortunately, Liu's mother was relatively strong, and she woke up after entering the hospital, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The group of people selling tea was warned, changed cities and continued to toss, and they left.

This is the whole story, which means that you can't find anyone if you want to find it now, and it's useless to call the police.

After saying something, Liu's father said: "Your mother is old and confused, and she does stupid things when she is old." ”

Liu Wenqing comforted his father: "Money is not a problem, the body is important." ”

Father Liu sighed, looked at Bai Lu, got up and said, "I'll cook, you two go into the house." ”

Then let's go in, Bai Lu and Liu Wenqing enter the house.

It's rare for the two of them to be alone, and it's even more rare to be alone in a room, and Bai Lu looks around.

Very typical girl's room, desk, bed, bookshelf, wardrobe, nothing else, very clean, looking very fresh. Bai Lu leaned against the windowsill and asked, "Don't you settle accounts with those scammers?"

Liu Wenqing said: "How can I find this?"

Bai Lu pondered: "Lao Shao is still here, saying that I am a broom star, it seems that there is really such a point." ”

"What did you say?" asked Liu Wenqing.

Bai Lu said: "Look, I went to dinner, and my bank card was stolen; yesterday the leopard encountered a group of thieves; and now Liu's mother has encountered a gambling gang, except for the leopard, who can beat a few times to get angry, the other two gangs can't find it at all, and they can't get angry if they want to." "Speaking of the leopard, I took out the phone and looked at it a few times, strange, why didn't the police station call?

After thinking about it, he called the duck: "What, you interfered in that matter yesterday?"

"Nonsense, isn't it just five little deflated three, dare to sue you? Lao Tzu found someone to clean up, and now they are all gone, haluha. ”

Bai Lu smiled: "Well done, hang up." ”

"Don't hang up, how is Wen Qing? there's nothing going on at home, right?" asked the duck.

"It's okay, I'll talk about it when I get back. Bai Lu hung up the phone.

Lunch was hearty, a table of stuff in the morning, the same at noon. Dad Liu is really a man, he doesn't ask anything, just entertains him warmly.

When the meal is ready, he has to go to the hospital to deliver the meal, and give the room to the little couple he thinks.

You can't blame the old man for thinking so, it's true. I came back together in the middle of the night last night, and I didn't shy away from staying in a room, and it was strange that there was no story.

It's a pity, the old man didn't think that there would be such a strange person as Bai Lu in the world, in Bai Lu's eyes, there are only things that should not be done, and whether it is troublesome, as for what others think, he doesn't care at all.

He felt that Liu Wenqing needed someone to accompany him when he went home, so he accompanied her back. He felt that it was troublesome to go out in the middle of the night to find a hotel, so he didn't go. As for what Daddy Liu thinks...... Let's talk about it. (To be continued......)
