The birth of mahjong is because it has been too idle recently, and there is also a Qiaoer Sect, which is to please Zhu Qiaoqiao, the lord of Pucheng. Because her future sister-in-law said that her life was boring, Xu Hao had an idea, so she found a ready-made craftsman at home to carefully make it, using six elephant tusks contributed by the Qin Palace, plus a bunch of jade agate and ten taels of gold for inlay, and even the font on the card was gilded.

To paraphrase the famous sayings of later generations, the absolute high-end atmosphere is on the grade.

In order to try the effect, they let the red leaves try to play once, using the simplest rules, and Xu Hao, who is too complicated, doesn't understand, and the result is not bad.

It's just four young girls sitting and rubbing mahjong, which feels really weird, like a bad scenery like burning a piano and cooking a crane. Xu Hao immediately stopped, and didn't let them touch it for the past two days.

Today, since the old lady entered the garden to play, Xu Hao took it out again to try to make the elders happy, judging from the excited expressions of the old man and the three wives, this thing is too lethal for the poor and boring.

In order not to poison the people of the Ming Dynasty, Xu Hao decided not to tell her the real way to play when he decided to give it to Zhu Qiaoqiao, just treat it as a pair of building blocks, and if he has the ability, he will slowly build a house in the boudoir and play.

It is said that mahjong was created by Zheng He, the eunuch of the Three Treasures, and was used to pass the time of the crew during the voyage, which means that even if Xu Hao cherished the broom, mahjong would come out as scheduled in 20 years.

The family is in Xu Hao's bamboo garden, there is only one pair of mahjong, the maids are in the yard fanning the stove to smoke and roast the delicious and juicy beef slices, the red leaves with the bamboo orchid autumn fragrance Qingwen three maids who understand the rules, from time to time to the elders sitting in the hall carefully explained, around the Wang family and the Liu family four girls, listening attentively to every word.

The other girls were scattered around, Xiao Yuying walked to the back hall with Xu Qinglian wearing clogs barefoot, pointed to the hot spring in the backyard, and muttered a few words.

Xu Qinglian smiled and nodded in agreement, and beckoned her younger brother, who was busy applying condiments to the meat slices, to the front, and then Xu Hao was thrown out.

As soon as he didn't know who was leaving, Wang Xuanqing pulled Hongye aside and asked quietly, "Where did you buy this card?" I think it's interesting to want to honor the elders in the family, how much silver do you need? ”

Momiji, who has recently been poured a belly of marketing by his brother, blinked his delicate eyes, and hesitantly stretched out five green fingers.

"Five hundred taels of gold!" Wang Xuanqing immediately gasped, but seeing that it was ivory and agate, Hongye's offer was really fair, and he said angrily: "I will write a letter to my father in a while, five hundred taels will be five hundred taels, in order to fulfill filial piety, no amount of money is much." ”

Red leaves are so hung to bite off the little tongue in the mouth, in fact, she means five hundred taels of silver, which is too much to be very hesitant, originally planned to use haode wood and other things to carve a pair of mahjong, where is the ivory in this house? Even jadeite and other rare things are not much.

Five hundred taels of gold immediately squandered the conscience of the red leaves, and decided that he couldn't let go of this rare opportunity to make money.

Wang Xuanqing turned around and left with satisfaction, who knew that the two girls of the Liu family came over together again, and also inquired about the source and price of mahjong, they were preparing for the birthday gift of the elders, and even the green bamboo came close with a red face, this girl was actually planning to send a pair of mahjong to please the future mother-in-law.

Now there are one and two red leaves, proudly stretched out five slender white fingers, and the indoctrination of many days immediately came into play, and said with a smile: "Only I know where to buy this thing, and there is no other seller in the capital, divided into high-grade middle grade and lower grade, the upper grade five hundred taels of gold, the middle grade five hundred taels of silver, the lower grade one hundred taels of silver, what do you want?" ”

The sisters of the Liu family looked at the delicate but valuable mahjong tiles on the table in embarrassment, discussed with each other, and zuihou said: "We don't have much savings, so let's go down the grade, and ask my sister to come to Zhang Luo to be beautiful and elegant, but don't want that vulgar and unsightly turbidity." ”

"That's nature, it's on me." Momiji patted his slightly thriving little breasts, and looked at the opponent's green bamboo with some provocation, "What about you, do you want to be graded?" ”

Luzhu was very distressed, but he was not to be outdone: "Hmph! I can't afford to buy the top grade, but I can still buy the middle grade. ”

"Alright, you all wait." Momiji grinned and walked away.

Where does Green Bamboo have so much money? After the pain in the flesh, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in his heart that Zhang De that guy wants to please me all day long, so it is better to let him spend money on me to show goodwill. Hum! Forgive him for not daring to tell others.

Let's say that Xu Hao, who was stupid here, had to go out, and after walking a few steps, a housekeeper happened to come over, and said with a smile on his face from afar: "I was looking for you, and the prince of Qin personally brought someone to send some makeup." God, there is a large and expensive dragon and phoenix bed, which is difficult for eight people to carry, and there is also a dresser studded with gems, which I have never seen in my life. ”

"Let's go over and have a look."

Xu Hao, who felt strange, strode towards the north at the moment, but he didn't expect that the big hire had not yet been hired, why did he suddenly get anxious over there? When he walked to the courtyard located on the north side of the inner house, sure enough, Zhu Shangbing was surrounded by a group of eunuchs, looking at the new house with his hands behind his back.

Don't look at Xu Hao's complaining that day that he wanted to let Qin Wangfu toss as much as he wants, but in fact, for fear of delaying time, he still didn't allow the house to be demolished. The two stewards and eunuchs took measures according to local conditions, knocked down the side of the wing room and the courtyard wall, and then built a small garden, and dug a ditch to divert the living water into a pool.

Xu Hao heard about such a big project? How much people's fat and people's ointment do you have to waste? No, it just doesn't work! Anyway, this is my house, so you are not allowed to mess around.

As a result, the eunuch personally quietly sent two hundred taels of silver at night, Xu Hao threw it out without saying a word, and immediately increased it to two thousand taels of silver the next night, Xu Hao immediately hesitated.

Later, Xu Hao thought about it for a long time, and felt that there would be no problem, who asked you to dig a ditch and build civil engineering, which damaged my family's feng shui, and finally accepted the bribe of two thousand taels in the name of compensating the Xu family, and the silver went into the Xu family's treasury, as for what you two eunuchs are going to do behind your backs, our Xu family doesn't know anything.

This ditch hit the back of the old lady's Fushou Ju and passed through, no wonder the old lady couldn't stand the noise and hid in the garden, always drinking and pecking has its own cause and effect.

The luxurious dragon and phoenix bed was too big to enter the door, and the people of the Qin Wangfu unceremoniously demolished the door and the wall, making it a miasma.

Zhu Shangbing covered his nose, pulled Xu Hao aside, and said: "Yesterday, my father sent a letter urging the marriage, and I am going to send more people over to repair the yard as soon as possible, and get married as soon as it is repaired." ”

Xu Hao pondered for a while, and it seemed that Zhu Di had tied up the Qin Wangfu to his side. urged to marry the Xu family as soon as possible, so that with the addition of the other two aunts, there will be four royal mansions and the Xu family sharing weal and woe, even if Xu Huizu will not help his brother-in-law if he is dedicated to the public, he will remain neutral.

What a great opportunity! Although I have reaped a lot of benefits from the Qin Palace, I am embarrassed.

Xu Hao blinked and said in embarrassment: "Your construction day and night, disturbing the whole family is not peaceful, and others are just doing it, my grandmother and my mother don't sleep well, and they can't sleep all night when they are frightened at the slightest movement, alas! ”

Zhu Shangbing was anxious and asked, "Then what should I do?" The first time my father told me to do something, I must have done it. ”

Xu Hao comforted him: "Don't worry, the method was figured out by people." In this way, I vacate my yard, I will be quiet there, let the elders be wronged for a few days, and I will sleep outside, so that it will be over! ”

Zhu Shangbing was greatly moved, and felt very guilty, and said: "It's really a shame to bother your parents." Is there any way for me to make up for it, your family is not short of gold and silver and other vulgar things, and the palace maids and beauties are inappropriate, which makes people scratch their heads. ”

"Don't!" Xu Hao blurted out, my family is still short of gold, silver and beauties, don't be polite to me!

But he wanted to open his mouth but couldn't say it, Xu Hao let out a long sigh and said excitedly: "What you said is true." By the way, my second brother is going to get married in the coming year, and your cultivation style is spacious, so you can't let my second brother secretly feel sad in comparison? When the second sister-in-law enters the door in the future, you must not complain about my family's partiality? Why don't you send in another batch of materials, and wait for my family to build a slightly smaller yard according to this style. ”

Zhu Shangbing's eyes lit up, he knew that it was very expensive to repair the house, taking the small courtyard in front of him as a reference, the Xu family's financial resources were only like this, so he immediately smiled and said: "It's so decided, hiring craftsmen requires wages and food, etc., and I will pay some more silver from the Qin Palace." ”

Yo West! Brother, you are really on the road, this vassal palace is so rich? Xu Hao secretly shook his head in his heart, but shook his head sanctimoniously and said: "This is cheesy, and I am embarrassed to ask for your family's materials, how can I ask for any silver?" The matter was settled. ”

After saying that, Xu Hao was about to leave very righteously, but Zhu Shangbinggui is the prince of the prince, and he has always been used to spending money, not to mention that he can't let people say that the dignified palace is not authentic, seeing this, he thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "I still have a good idea, I opened a salt mine last year, and I have a lot of income, and I am thinking about opening another mine this year, if your family is interested, how about a share?" ”

Xu Hao, who had already walked a few steps away, immediately retreated spinelessly when he heard this, turned around, and said with emotion: "You are really my confidant!" ”

At night, Xu Hao sent away the elders who were still unsatisfied, glanced at the curtains used to cover the pool, and automatically made up for the sultry posture of his cousin and cousin when they were in the water.

Suddenly, Qiu Xiang came over and said that there was a eunuch outside asking to see him, and Xu Hao heard that it was his confidant Zhu Shangbing's person, so he immediately greeted him.

Outside the door, the eunuch arched his hand and smiled: "I've seen Gongzi, our family is here to inquire, the prince of Shicai saw a beautiful girl in your mansion from afar, and he was shocked, and sent a villain to ask which girl in the mansion is it?" ”

Xu Hao was stunned for a moment, then understood, and said in his heart that you are a cousin, and when he saw a noble person in the family, he immediately tried his best to take a look.

Xiao Yuying is really Xiao Yuying, she is too good at making good use of her beauty, but she doesn't know if she can bring happiness by relying on her beauty.

Thank you again for the reward from the blue before death, I was startled and smiled!
