After the marriage, my husband's family listened to my voice and turned the tide

……

After Shang Tingli and his two servants had finished their meal, they came out of the Food Pavilion. Two furtive little figures entered their sight. The two grown boys were looking around furtively, and the next moment, they turned around and entered Laiyunfang.

Shang Tingli narrowed his eyes.

There were clearly people standing at the entrance of the gambling house, probably the gambling house's employees, but they let two children in, which was obviously intentional. Even letting children in, it must be a shady shop.

"Let's go and get dressed."

A few steps ahead, there is a clothing store.

Shang Tingli went there.

When a customer came, the shopkeeper greeted him with a bow: "Madam, please come in, but do you want to buy ready-made clothes?"

"Is it for the wife or for the family? Should it be bright and eye-catching, or dark and low-key? Or maybe..."

Shang Tingli suddenly interrupted the shopkeeper's chatter: "Please find me a set of clothes for a young master, and two sets of clothes for the servants."

The shopkeeper was stunned: "Ah?"

Shang Tingli repeated it again and said, "It should be a size that suits the three of us, the master and the servant, and it should be a low-key color."

"……okay."

Although the shopkeeper was still doubtful, he turned around and went to find it for her.

Fang Zhi's right eyelid suddenly twitched, and she felt a little uneasy and asked, "Why are you buying men's ready-made clothes?" Her intuition told her that her prince's consort seemed to be doing something big.

Shang Tingli kept it a secret and said, "You'll know in a moment."

Fang Zhi: "..." I became more and more panicked.

Soon, the shopkeeper found three sets of men's clothes as requested.

Shang Tingli took the clothes and looked around. He didn't see any fitting rooms, so he asked, "Boss, is there a fitting room?"

"There are some."

The shopkeeper led her to the innermost part. The fitting room was inside, blocked by racks with cloth, so it could not be seen from the outside.

Shang Tingli only took the clothes that the young master was wearing and handed the remaining two sets of the same clothes to the two maids, "I'll go change first, and I'll come back for you two to change later."

The curtain was lowered to block out the prying eyes from outside, leaving the two maids staring at each other in bewilderment.

After the three of them changed their clothes, Fang Zhi took off Shang Tingli's headdress, let his hair down, and put it into a men's bun. She and Gan Tang then helped each other to tie up the boy's hair.

Before going out, I dressed up a little and put powder on my face.

Shang Tingli glanced sideways and said, "Boss, could you please get us a basin of water?"

"Let me take Madam to the backyard. My wife is here. I'll ask her to get Madam some water."

"Thank you."

In just a cup of tea, the three girls who came in turned into three young men.

Gan Tang went to pay the bill: "Please help keep these clothes and jewelry for me, I will come back later to pick them up."

In addition to the money for the three sets of ready-made clothes, Gan Tang gave the shopkeeper an extra ingot of silver.

The shopkeeper's face was full of smiles: "I promise to keep a close eye on the girl."

Out of the clothing store.

Gan Tang changed the topic directly: "Master, where are we going now?"

Shang Tingli pointed to Laiyunfang and raised his chin: "There."

"?" The two maids looked in the direction of her finger. Where are you talking about?

While the two of them were staring at each other, Shang Tingli had already arrived at the gate of Laiyunfang. Just as she was about to step in, someone stopped her, "Miss, it's June now, not the first day of the first lunar month yet."

The implication is that you can't go in.

Shang Tingli was stunned for a moment.

Tianzhao has a traditional festival called "Chi Chu Yi", which is the day of the Spring Festival. The women of Tianzhao can enjoy a unique day of privilege. They can put aside all matters at home and play and enjoy delicious food.

This "fun" means going to places where men used to gather. Gambling houses are also the favorite places for many girls on the first day of the new year. The casinos are always particularly lively on the first day of the new year, because the girls who come here are fully engaged, calculating carefully, and staring wide-eyed just for the damn three yuan five times. After a few rounds, the joyful laughter comes one after another, which is more lively than before.

Shang Tingli looked down at himself.

Although she wore a men's round-necked robe, tied her hair in a men's style, and removed her makeup, her face still looked like a girl's.

The waiter was definitely not blind. Facing the plain but elegant face, he could not bring himself to call him "Young Master". "Miss, unless it's the first day, our gambling house never accepts female guests."

It's not just Laiyunfang, all the gambling houses in Shangjing City are like this.

"Please be kind and let me go in to find someone. I'll be out soon after I find that person."

Shang Tingli winked at Gan Tang, and she took out a silver ingot from her bag, handed it to the clerk, and said with a smile, "Thank you, big brother, for giving me a favor."

The clerk looked hesitant, but his eyes were fixed on the silver ingot in Gan Tang's hand, never moving away.

Disguised as a young man, he went to the gambling house to look for someone. This must be the young lady of some family. There are gambling prostitutes in their gambling house. If the young master happened to hold one in his arms... and he let this young lady in, she would definitely make a scene when she saw the scene. Wouldn't that harm people?

Seeing that the waiter remained silent for a long time, Shang Tingli looked at Gan Tang.

Gan Tang took out another silver ingot and handed over two pieces of silver. "Brother, can you do me a favor?"

Silver ingots will glow in the daylight.

The waiter's eyes lit up, and he quickly pocketed the two pieces of silver, smiling brightly: "I'm not that hard-hearted." He said to Shang Tingli: "But you still have to promise me that you will only look for someone and not cause trouble."

Shang Tingli smiled and said, "I will never embarrass you, little brother."

After getting the assurance, the guy let him go.

The gambling house was in a bustle, some people were beaming with joy, while others were covered in dust and dirt.

Laiyunfang is the largest gambling house in Shangjing City. Everywhere you look, you can find all kinds of gambling methods, such as betting, fantan, cockfighting, mahjong, pai gow, chupu, and touhu... It's really dazzling.

Unfortunately, there was no one she was looking for at any of the gambling tables. Shang Tingli pressed her brows and continued looking, and finally saw the person she was looking for at the dice table.

The game played on the field is one of the dice games, guessing the size. The gameplay is extremely simple, three dice are covered with a cup, the dealer shakes it, and the players bet on the size of the dice points, three to ten are small, and eleven to eighteen are big.

The people who gathered here to watch and participate in the gambling stalls were the most numerous. The crowd was full of energy, and their voices were loud and sharp. The money on the gambling table dazzled Shang Tingli's eyes, but what was even more eye-catching was a mouthful of white teeth that someone showed with his mouth wide open.

There was a crisp sound of dice rolling, and the dealer dropped the cup.

Immersed in excitement, the little boy with a red face shouted loudly: "Open it wide! Open it wide!"

The fat boy beside him was just as excited as he was: "Open it up for me!"

"open--"

The dealer opened the cup, revealing the numbers on the three dice: two, three, and five, which added up to ten, a small number.

The two boys looked disappointed, but they took out their money again and went to the table, unwillingly and in high spirits, saying: "This time I'll buy a big one!"
