Daily life in the academy
Chapter 87: Fighting for 2 Hours
After lunch, Bai Zhi couldn't wait to show the mahjong set to Princess Ning as if she was presenting a treasure.
"Aunt Rou, let me show you something fun."
Princess Ning saw that she was holding an ordinary wooden box and asked curiously, "Is it something rare?"
Prince Ning sat beside Princess Ning and did not leave, wanting to find out what was going on. As for Yan Qingchen, he roughly guessed that this was related to the pattern he helped to draw. Since he was also involved and was one of the parties involved, he certainly could not miss it.
Bai Zhi smiled mysteriously, put the wooden box on the table and opened it, and the neatly arranged wooden mahjong tiles appeared in front of everyone.
Such a thing has never appeared in Yan State, and even Yan Qingchen himself was puzzled.
Princess Ning tapped the mahjong tiles and asked, "What are these little tiles with patterns on them used for?"
"It's very useful, but we're still short of four dice... Brother Yan, can you find a way to get them?" Bai Zhi saw his expression change slightly and quickly explained, "Don't worry, it's not for gambling, it's just a new puzzle game."
Yan Qingchen frowned: "What do you mean by puzzle game?"
"You need to use your brain to beat the opponent, just like playing card games, but mine is much more interesting than card games. Of course... there is a little bit of winning or losing in terms of money, but I do this just to make Aunt Rou happy." Bai Zhi admitted that she had the selfish desire to win money. Who can resist money?
Hearing him say this, Princess Ning's interest was really piqued. She thought back to when she dominated the circle of sisters playing mahjong, but later it became boring to always win and she stopped playing.
"If Ah Zhi tells you to do it, then do it quickly. Your mother is still preparing to play."
Yan Qingchen: "...Yes, mother."
After Yan Qingchen left, Bai Zhi ordered her servants to find a square table. In order to increase friction, she covered it with a silk cloth that looked very expensive. After everything was ready, she poured all the mahjong tiles on the table, and then invited Princess Ning and Prince Ning to sit down together. There was still one person missing, so Princess Ning asked Butler Shen to make up the number.
"Come on, everyone, follow me and learn how to shuffle and stack the cards."
After Baizhi got the hang of it, she explained to them how to arrange the cards while playing mahjong. Before mahjong machines were invented, they always arranged the cards in threes, so she taught them that way.
Princess Ning was very skillful and followed suit, but Prince Ning and Butler Shen were a bit clumsy. The mahjong pieces in their hands seemed out of control and kept falling over.
Bai Zhi observed quietly, mainly Prince Ning...Butler Shen is well versed in the ways of the workplace.
Princess Ning looked at her husband with disdain: "You can't even figure out how to put a few small pieces of wood together. This won't break your waist, will it?"
The sarcasm is full.
Prince Ning sneered, "Arou, the younger generation is still here. Please give me some face."
Princess Ning turned her head away and snorted impatiently, then mercifully let him go.
The mahjong tiles in front of the four people were finally all set up. Since the dice had not arrived yet, Bai Zhi randomly opened a position to tell them how to pick up and draw cards, as well as how to play mahjong.
During this time, Yan Qingchen came back, and Butler Shen quickly stood up to give him a seat, but he did not bring back the dice. He only said: I have already given the order, and he will be back in about half an incense stick of time.
When Bai Zhi was reviewing the shuffling and sorting of the cards with the princess and the prince, she explained it again to Yan Qingchen, and then continued to explain the rules of the game. She was good at pushing Hu, and the rules were simple and easy to remember. She talked incessantly and demonstrated for a quarter of an hour, and she was so thirsty that her mouth was dry. Butler Shen was worthy of being an old steward. He immediately ordered the maids to bring tea stools to the two opposite corners, and two maids stood by to add tea and water for the masters.
Bai Zhi drank a glass before she felt her thirst quenched. Then she waved her hand and said proudly, "Come on, let's practice a few games first."
Princess Ning's face was filled with excitement, and she was eager to try: "Come on, let's go." She had already begun to show the heroic spirit that had previously dominated the circle of sisters.
After playing two rounds, the three finally understood the rules. At this time, the servant respectfully brought four dice on a porcelain plate. Bai Zhi took out two of them and threw them in the middle of the table. She continued to teach them how to find the corresponding positions according to the numbers and taught them the corresponding formulas.
"One self, two straights, three pairs, four queens..."
Princess Ning is a studious person with a good memory. She quickly mastered the rules, which shows that she really likes it.
Mahjong has its own unique charm. Even people with strong self-control will be immersed in it once they start playing. At least Bai Zhi thinks she is such a person.
After a few rounds, when everyone had become more proficient, Bai Zhi was still worried about how to raise the stakes. Princess Ning then suggested, "It's boring to play like this. We need to add some prizes." Her eyes swept over the three people's faces, finally landing on Bai Zhi's. She smiled and said, "How about a five-cent bet for a push-down Hu and a ten-cent bet for a self-draw?"
Bai Zhi nodded quickly and asked in surprise, "How did Aunt Rou know the price was so high?"
Princess Ning hesitated for a moment and said, "We play leaf cards and count by multiples. That's not very reasonable, is it?"
"No, no, Aunt Rou takes good care of me."
"Okay, that's settled then."
Princess Ning didn't even think of asking Prince Ning and Yan Qingchen for their opinions. They both seemed to be completely used to it.
The official card game started around 3 p.m., and apart from Yan Qingchen who remained calm as always and whose movements of drawing cards were elegant, everyone else had excitement in their eyes, especially Princess Ning and Bai Zhi. Of course, they were the ones who won the most times, and the copper and silver coins in front of them were the highest.
This is a sustainable industry. Baizhi is smart and feeds cards to Princess Ning from time to time. As long as she is happy, the game will not end.
As a result, Yan Qingchen tried to sneak away several times under the pretext of going to the restroom, but was always dragged back by the princess's ear. The card game lasted from sunrise to sunset, and the large round table next to them was filled with dinner, but Princess Ning was still not satisfied.
Prince Ning begged for mercy: "Arou, why don't you have dinner first? We have been fighting with you for two hours..."
"It's only been two hours... Ah Zhi, this is indeed much more interesting than playing mahjong." Princess Ning was still unsatisfied and looked like she wanted to fight for another 300 rounds.
King Ning quickly winked at Baizhi from the side. Baizhi's words were the most effective here.
Two hours, four hours... The time for a private room was up, and it was indeed time to rest. Bai Zhi received the order and immediately executed it: "Auntie Rou, Ah Zhi is hungry. Let's have dinner first. It's been two hours, and my waist is sore... It's a good time to rest."
"Then let's have our meal." Princess Ning finally agreed.
