Chapter 1917: 106. Establish a Written Agreent_3
Today, he personally ca to Idle Tea House with Madam Ming, indeed harboring other intentions.
Originally, he didn’t know who the boss of Idle Tea House was, but now that he knows, he can no longer let Madam Ming take the lead.
To work under a Commandery Princess, how great an honor is that!
If he replaces Madam Ming to beco the shopkeeper of Idle Tea House, those people coming to demand debts would show more leniency for the sake of Princess Pingxi.
It’s just a pity that today’s trip was in vain, and not only in vain but also a great disgrace!
However, though angry, Zhong Yingming realized one thing, that Princess Pingxi is absolutely not as amiable as she appeared when he saw her at Zhong Mansion; she is a cold-hearted woman.
No wonder the people in the capital city have mixed opinions about her, saying she is exceedingly intelligent, yet exceptionally fierce.
Isn’t she just exceptionally fierce? Such a woman who shows no rcy is indeed hard to approach!
Thinking this way, the obsession in Zhong Yingming’s heart dissipated quite a bit. Such a difficult person to deal with should be left to Madam Ming to handle, while he can sit at ho, indulge, and enjoy life with peace of mind.
“Let’s go, take a look at the gambling house. It’s rare to co to the capital; I must try my luck,” he said with a chuckle.
With a chuckle, Zhong Yingming directly ordered Zhong Shi to drive the carriage to a gambling house called Sifang.
This was sothing he heard from a few playboy friends a few days ago, saying that at this Sifang Gambling House, there is a steward with exceptionally poor luck who is looking for guests to try their luck in order to improve his own.
Frequent gamblers know that luck, just like hand fortune, is temporary. Sotis when encountering soone with worse luck, that person’s bad luck transfers to the other.
That’s why this steward is vigorously searching for soone with worse luck in the capital city.
However, unfortunately, for half a month now, there have been not a few — if not a thousand, at least eight hundred — people who ca to gamble with him, and all turned out to be better than him.
Speaking of this, the friend who told about it was soone Zhong Yingming knew very well, a complete non-gambler, and even he won one hundred and eighty taels of silver from the steward; wouldn’t Zhong Yingming win at least a few hundred taels?
“Master, we better hurry back to the mansion; gambling houses are not…”
Zhong Yingming knew about these things, but Zhong Shi did not. Thinking about the scene of his master’s gambling extravagantly back in Jiangnan, he was scared to the core.
“Enough talking! Are you the master or am I the master? Go, to Sifang Gambling House!”
Zhong Yingming was in high spirits and wouldn’t allow others to be ddleso.
However, recalling how he was once punished by the old lady with family law because of gambling, Zhong Yingming was still apprehensive and didn’t forget to warn, “If you dare to tell anyone about this, be careful; I might fire you!”
Zhong Shi had co all the way to the capital city with Zhong Yingming from his hotown, and his entire family worked at the Zhong Mansion. If he were dismissed, how would he support his family in a place so unfamiliar?
“Yes, yes, I absolutely won’t leak a word, absolutely won’t leak a word,” Zhong Shi helplessly shook his head and had no choice but to drive the carriage towards Sifang Gambling House.
After sending off Zhong Yingming, Lin Yuan then stood up and personally pulled Madam Ming to a chair, apologizing, “I’m sorry for earlier, I…”
She was referring to the situation earlier when she showed no rcy in front of Zhong Yingming.
Madam Ming shook her head gratefully, interrupting her, “Princess, I’m not an ungrateful person. How could I have other thoughts just because of a few words? Besides, I also hoped you could teach him a good lesson. You have no idea what his purpose was for coming to Idle Tea House with today, I…”
Madam Ming lowered her head in sha, evidently unwilling to speak of it, feeling it was quite embarrassing.
“I know what you an.”
Lin Yuan curled her lips with disdain: “I’ve t many like him, seeing you’ve climbed high, he eagerly wants to co over and grab a share? Hmph, where in the world is there such a thing?”
Rolling her eyes, Lin Yuan suddenly smiled mischievously, “He wanted to recomnd himself in front of , right? Actually, I should agree, and then deliberately arrange a situation to get him into trouble. By then, let alone him, I’d get all those estates held by his mother as well. What do you think of this idea?”
