My father-in-law is Lin Zhengying

Chapter 124 You must win the magic card when playing cards, the greed of betting on dogs
Wong Tai Sin Temple.

"Oh shit!"

"I lost everything again today!"

A man cursed and got out of a taxi. When he saw a finished can at his feet, he couldn't help but kicked it away.

"Bang~"

After walking a few more steps, I saw a cigarette butt that had just been thrown away on the ground, and I wanted to kick it again.

He doesn't like anything now.

Just as he was about to hit the kick, the man retracted his foot, glanced left and right, then quickly squatted down to pick up the cigarette butt on the ground, took a puff, and then threw it away with all his strength.

The half pack of cigarettes he had left just now was lost in a bet with others on who would pee the farthest.

It's all his fault that he lost his energy after gambling all night, otherwise he should have won.

After a few curse words, Tao Ming prepared to go home and sleep.

Just the thought of having to quarrel with his wife again when he went home made him feel unhappy.

But he didn't have any money, otherwise he would have kicked her, a shrew, long ago.

He was cursing bad luck, but in his heart he was planning to borrow some money from the neighbor who had taken advantage of him later.

His neighbor is a university professor who looks and speaks politely. The most important thing is that he is willing to help others. As long as he asks to borrow money, he will never let him return empty-handed.

When he thought of this, Tao Ming felt happy again.

After borrowing the money, he will kill everyone tonight and win a lot.

"Give me a magic card that will definitely win you in gambling!"

“I’m giving you a magic card that will definitely win you at cards!”

“I’ll give you a magic card that will win you in the card game. Come and take a look if you’re passing by!”

……

Just as he was about to walk home, Tao Ming heard a cry of selling.

He didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but the four words "You must win when playing cards" firmly attracted him.

Looking up, he saw an old blind man wearing sunglasses kneeling on the ground, holding something wrapped in yellow silk in his hand. Judging from the shape, it should be the winning card he said he would win when playing cards.

"Hello~"

Tao Ming stepped forward and asked, "Is your magic card that will win you in poker real?"

His ears twitched slightly, and the old blind man held up the spiritual sign and said with a confident smile: "If it doesn't work, you don't need money."

“If it doesn’t work, you don’t need money?”

Tao Ming was completely interested, "This is what you said. If it doesn't work, you don't need the money. I'll take it back and use it first. I'll come back to you when I win the money."

The old blind man hid the magic card in his hand, "Although it doesn't work and requires no money, it still depends on whether you are the right person?"

"Is there a Yuanren?"

Tao Ming couldn't help but said discouraged: "I just came out of the casino. If there were Yuan Ren, I wouldn't come to you."

"Hehe~"

"Sir, you can tell a joke."

The old blind man chuckled lightly, "What I mean by destined person is whether you have a destiny with this spiritual tablet. If the owner of the spiritual tablet recognizes you, it means that you are destined."

Tao Ming asked again: "You mean you still don't need the money?"

The old blind man nodded, "I said it was a gift. As long as you have a connection with this spiritual tablet, I will give it to you."

With the mentality of giving it a try and not getting pregnant, Tao Ming crossed his arms and squatted down, "Okay, can you help me see if I am destined to be a spiritual card?"

The old blind man reached out and touched Tao Ming's face. Just as Tao Ming was about to avoid it, he heard the other person shout, "Don't move!"

Although he was shocked, Tao Ming thought of the free winning card for playing cards, so he obeyed and did not move.

After touching it several times and confirming that it was correct, the old blind man had a smile on his face.

Seeing the smile on the old blind man's face, Tao Ming couldn't wait to ask: "How is it? Am I destined to be the right person?"

The old blind man stood up and said, "You are her destined person."

"Haha~"

Tao Ming laughed, stretched out his hand to grab the spirit tablet, and said, "I will thank you later when I win the money!"

This time the old blind man did not stop him, but suddenly stopped him when he was about to leave, "Wait~"

Tao Ming turned around and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"There is a true spirit in your spirit tablet. If you invite her home, you must worship her every day. A stick of incense every morning and evening, and other tributes are also indispensable."

The old blind man said slowly: "Only if you make her happy, then you can win at cards!"

He was not an idiot who didn't understand anything. Looking at the spirit tablet, Tao Ming's hands were shaking a little, "Are you saying there is a ghost inside?"

"Hehe~"

The old blind man smiled and said nothing.

Gritting his teeth, Tao Mingfa said harshly: "Then how do I know if she is happy or not?"

"I'll give you three dice. You get up every day, give her a stick of incense, pray sincerely and throw the dice out. If all three are red, it means she is in a good mood."

Taking out three dice, the old blind man said in detail, "On the contrary, it means she is unhappy!"

Taking the dice, Tao Ming asked: "Besides this, what other taboos are there?"

As an old gambler, he could feel that the dice in his hand were made of unusual material, as if they were made of bones.

"taboo?"

The old blind man thought for a moment and added: "She was betrayed by a man and suffered a lot during her lifetime. She hates betrayed people the most. The money you win through her must not be used for random things, otherwise the family will be destroyed!"

His body trembled slightly, Tao Ming nodded, took the things and left.

Tao Ming was desperate to lose. He didn't care whether this thing was evil or not. He just wanted to win back what he had lost before.

Isn’t it just that I can’t find another woman?
He just doesn't look for it.

As long as he can win money, he is willing to have no children or grandchildren.

As a professional gambler, he was so anxious to lose that he even wanted to sell his wife!
Looking at Tao Ming leaving in a hurry, a strange expression flashed across the old blind man's face. He touched his beard on his chin and walked towards the fortune-telling stall not far away with a smile.

The fortune-telling stall said - Maoshan authentic, fortune-telling by stargazing.

Just as he was about to take a sip of tea, the old blind man felt someone sitting down opposite him.

The old blind man asked: "A visitor has arrived. Is it fortune telling or character testing?"

Xia Youren directly reported his name, "Xia Youren, the fifth direct disciple of Maoshan Sect No. 30!"

"The fifth-generation direct disciple of Maoshan Sect No. 30?"

The old blind man's eyebrows jumped, then he took off the sunglasses on his face, stared at the man opposite him with a pair of piercing eyes, and said four words, "Do you have a token?"

Taking out the Maoshan jade pendant that was connected to his own aura, Xia Youren smiled and said, "Master nephew, don't you want to wear those sunglasses anymore?"

"It turns out that it was my uncle in person, and my nephew Cheng Jue was polite."

A smile appeared on Cheng Jue's originally tense face, and he stood up and saluted, "I'm just trying to make ends meet."

Xia Youren asked: "Teaching people to raise ghosts just to make a living?"

Cheng Jue looked a little embarrassed, "Uncle Master, have you seen it?"

Xia Youren said, "I've been watching it for a long time."

Cheng Jue asked tentatively: "Uncle, what do you mean?"

"You can set up a stall here, presumably because you were instructed by that person to choose the right person here."

Looking towards the Huang Tai Sin Temple not far away, Xia Youren said: "So I can't blame you too much."

"Uncle Master said so."

Secretly breathing a sigh of relief, Cheng Jue nodded repeatedly, "Although I am working for them, I always keep in mind my identity as a disciple of the Maoshan Sect."

He has average abilities, except for the unique skill of raising ghosts.

However, raising ghosts is a big taboo in the Maoshan sect, and other sect members usually don't get close to him, and they are always alone.

Although he is good at raising ghosts, he doesn't dare to use ghosts to do bad things.

After all, even though he is an outer disciple of the Maoshan sect, he will go to the underworld to meet his ancestor after his death.

So he had no choice but to seek refuge in Wong Tai Sin Temple, set up a fortune-telling stall here, and make a living.

Moreover, since he is now working for Huang Tai Sin Temple and is an outer disciple of Maoshan Sect, he will definitely receive considerable preferential treatment after his death.

Whether you choose to become a ghost or reincarnate in the next life, you all have inherent advantages.

At his age, he has already begun to plan for his death.

But when he suddenly saw such a young and mysterious uncle today, he was inevitably a little uneasy.

He was afraid that he would be accused of betraying his master, and he was also afraid that the other party would punish him by raising ghosts.

But judging from the expression on the young master's uncle's face, he shouldn't be too difficult to get along with, which also made him secretly relieved.

Xia Youren asked: "Did you make the spiritual tablet just now yourself, or did they give it to you?"

Cheng Jue said: "I figured out the spirit tablets myself, and they gave me the ghosts."

Xia Youren asked again: "Are there many spiritual cards?"

"not much."

Cheng Jue shook his head, "Just make one every month, and then choose a destined person to give it away."

This is the task given to him by Wong Tai Sin Temple, to give one statue to a destined person every month.

Xia Youren asked again: "Do you know where these ghosts come from?"

"I don't know that."

Cheng Jue shook his head, "I'm only responsible for doing things and don't care about anything else."

In order to avoid karma, he would kneel down and send out the spiritual tablets.

And he also knows that the fewer secrets you know, the more nourishing your life will be.

Even though his stall here is inconspicuous, there seems to be no business all day long.

But he couldn't bear the large flow of people and the large number of believers in Wong Tai Sin Temple, so he gave him the shop directly opposite the main gate for free, which cost him tens of thousands of dollars in a month.

Sometimes when you encounter fat sheep, it is not a problem if it exceeds [-].With this income, he saved three houses and several million in savings for his son.

The suffering will only be suffered by his generation. As long as the next generation does not take the wrong path, after a few generations, the descendants will flourish, engage in business and politics, and the family will prosper.

……

Tao Ming went home with a sure-win card in his hand. He opened the door carefully and found that his wife was not at home. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

With the thought of preferring to believe that it exists rather than believe that it does not exist, Tao Ming enshrined the spiritual tablet he had just brought back.

After lighting the incense candle, offering three apples and two bananas, and burning a wad of paper money, Tao Ming bowed sincerely.

"Bless me to win every time I bet. When I win money, I will buy good things to honor you."

After saying that, he picked up three dice and threw them directly on the ground.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

The three dice rolled twice, revealing three red chickens.

"All three are red!"

Tao Ming couldn't help but feel happy. Thinking of the old blind man's words, he instantly became excited.

But I don’t have the capital, so I can’t even give it a try.

After hesitating for a moment, Tao Ming opened the door and knocked on the door next to him, "Dong dong dong~"

Soon, the door opened.

A gentle man with glasses welcomed him in.

About 5 minutes later, Tao Ming came out with a red face. At this time, he already had a huge sum of 1000 yuan on his body.

He knew that although he came to borrow it every time, his wife always returned it.

Of course, the neighbor would not borrow more than five hundred thousand, otherwise his wife would not be able to pay back.

With bloodshot eyes showing no trace of sleepiness, Tao Ming took a taxi and headed straight to the casino.

Another half day passed, and it was evening. Tao Ming finally came out of the casino with red eyes.

But compared to the initial anxiety, it has now turned into excitement.

This time, his fortune finally turned, and he felt proud and killed everyone.

He doubled his capital of 1000 yuan fifty times and won 5 yuan.

Not forgetting that he must win the magic card when playing cards, Tao Ming went to the Ming Paper Shop and bought many things, including various paper electrical appliances, incense and candles, ingots, and even a golden boy and a beautiful girl.

When he brought these things home, his wife thought he was crazy.

But when he threw the money he won today on the table, although his wife was still angry, she was also attracted by the huge sum of money on the table.

Without waiting for his wife to ask more questions, Tao Ming proudly told what happened today.

After hearing this, my wife couldn't help but marvel, and she also came to the spiritual tablet and bowed, hoping to continue to bless her husband's gambling luck.

They are more afraid of poverty than ghosts.

After three days of this, Tao Ming also doubled his original 1000 yuan a thousand times and won 100 million.

Affected by Tao Ming's luck at cards, his wife also started playing mahjong.

However, compared to Tao Ming's killing spree, his wife's luck in poker is not so good, with more losses than wins.

It wasn't much of a fight, and I only lost a few thousand dollars in total.

Seeing that his wife was also addicted to gambling, Tao Mingzhi was so complacent that he had long forgotten Cheng Jue's advice.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when his wife went to play mahjong all night, he called four women in one night, and they had a spring breeze, and the dragon traveled all over the world.

Here, Xia Youren also prepared gifts and took Lin Yuzhi to attend the 59th birthday of Wen Yushi's father, Wen Jinghong.

It is said that men are more than nine and women are more than whole.

Therefore, his 59th birthday is so important to Wen Jinghong.

Originally, because of the death of the old man of the Wen family, Wen Jinghong didn't want to make a big deal, so he just invited his family to have a meal.

But Wen Yushi was unwilling.

Grandpa's funeral was not too ostentatious, so she wanted to take advantage of Wen Jinghong's 59th birthday to have a grand ceremony.

To this end, she did not hesitate to spend a lot of energy and money, and then she invited a descendant of the former royal chef to cook the Manchu-Han banquet.

Of course, she also wanted to take this opportunity to get familiar with some of the relationships in the Wen family that she was not familiar with.

As Princess Wen's eldest daughter, Wen Yushi also has her own ambitions. She wants to quickly take over the entire Wen Group from her father.

"Aren, Azhi, you are here."

At the entrance of the Hong Kong Island Hotel, Wen Yushi greeted him warmly.

Looking at the already crowded hotel lobby, Xia Youren smiled and said, "Yushi, are we not late?"

Wen Yushi rolled her eyes, "The banquet starts in half an hour, do you think it's too late? I also want to introduce a few friends to you."

Xia Youren is a cheeky person, "It's not too late to get to know each other after dinner."

"Okay, I'll introduce you to him later."

Wen Yushi didn't say much, "I'll take you to see my father first."

The relationship between her and Xia Youren is not a business relationship, nor is it a relationship between superiors and subordinates in the company.

They are personal friends, her few friends, and she must first take them to meet her father, today's birthday boy.

"Dad~"

Wen Yushi took Xia Youren to the busiest place in the audience and introduced Xia Youren: "This is my good friend Xia Youren, who is also Azhi's childhood sweetheart's boyfriend."

Lin Yuzhi needs no introduction. As her assistant, I have met her many times.

Looking at Xia Youren's energetic face, Wen Jinghong smiled and said, "Ah Ren, Yushi often mentions you in front of me, saying that you are very capable!"

"Hello, uncle."

Xia Youren took the initiative to hand over the gift, "I wish you a happy birthday, may you grow strong year after year, and may the spring grass grow year after year. Like the perseverance of the moon, like the rising of the sun. Like the longevity of the Nanshan Mountain, which never grows old or collapses. Like the luxuriance of pines and cypresses, I accept it all.”

"Haha~"

Wen Jinghong laughed out loud at the interesting birthday message, and said, "I'm already very happy that you came to celebrate my birthday, and you even brought a gift. It's so unreasonable."

Xia Youren smiled and said: "I heard from Yushi that uncle, you like the smell of agarwood. I happen to have a string of agarwood bracelets here. It's not worth much, it's just a piece of my heart."

Seeing that Xia Youren had put so much thought into it, Wen Jinghong also had a sincere smile on his face, "Then I'll accept it."

After showing his face in front of Wen Jinghong, Wen Yushi took Xia Youren to a table, "Ah Ren, Ah Zhi, you sit here, and I will introduce a few friends to you later."

Xia Youren asked: "Yu Shi, is your third uncle from the Wen family here today?"

Wen Yushi nodded, "The third uncle is here, but he doesn't like making noise, so he was placed in a box alone, accompanied by his two apprentices, Zhong Fabai and Wang Yuhuan."

The status of literary talent in the literary family is not very high, but it is very important and a bit noble.

Watching Wen Yushi go to greet the guests, Xia Youren looked at his girlfriend and smiled and said, "When your dad turns 49, I will also throw a big party for him."

Lin Yuzhi rolled her eyes, "My grandfather is still here, what should I do?"

Xia Youren said in a different way, "Then wait until your father finds you a stepmother, then I will organize a big event for him."

Lin Yuzhi didn't want to deal with her stupid boyfriend, "If you don't tease my dad for a day, you'll feel uncomfortable, right?"

Xia Youren asked again: "Then let me ask you, will you agree if I find a companion for your father?"

"Promise."

Lin Yuzhi nodded matter-of-factly, "My mother has been gone for so many years, and I know it's not easy for my father. It's good to have someone to help take care of him."

"Okay, I already have a candidate in mind."

Xia Youren smiled and nodded, "I'll help match them up then and see if it can work out."

"Who?"

Lin Yuzhi's eyes were full of curiosity, "Do I know him?"

"you do not know."

Xia Youren said: "I will take you to see it when I have the opportunity."

Lin Yuzhi pouted, "Don't forget it."

While the two of them were talking, Wen Yushi turned back.

But this time I brought several people with me, all of them outstanding and young talents.

"Let me introduce to you, this is my good friend Xia Youren and his girlfriend Lin Yuzhi."

Wen Yushi first introduced Xia Youren, and then introduced the person he had just brought over.

"Meizhi knows you, so I won't introduce you. I'll focus on introducing other people."

Wen Yushi smiled and said: "Ah Ren, this is our new generation of gambling king Mr. Luo Dingyi in Hong Kong. He has a net worth of tens of billions. He owns eight casinos in Macau and has business dealings with me."

Xia Youren smiled and stretched out a hand, "Hello, Mr. Luo, I have long admired your name."

Luo Dingyi was very respectful to Wen Yushi. Although he didn't know Xia Youren's background, he still shook his hand with a smile on his face and said, "Hello, Mr. Xia."

"Ah Ren, this is Situ Ci, the eldest son of the Situ family who has just returned from the beautiful country. He is planning to develop in Hong Kong Island."

Wen Yushi continued to introduce, "You must know that the Situ family is also the leading Chinese family in the beautiful country. This time Master Situ comes back, it will definitely set off a big earthquake."

"Yu Shi, you are joking."

Situ Ci said modestly: "I'm going to open a clothing company when I come back. I'll invest [-] million US dollars in the early stage. The subsequent investment will depend on the situation."

"Master Situ is really capable."

Xia Youren also smiled and stretched out his hand to shake the other person's hand. "As soon as I reach out, it's a big business worth [-] million US dollars."

Converting US$[-] million into Hong Kong dollars, that's close to HK$[-] million, which is even better than the later generations of Principal Wang's entrepreneurial ventures.

You know, it's the 90s now, prices are very high, and money is very valuable.

This is the top wealthy family in Hong Kong Island.

Both of them also brought female companions, but they were just female companions and not worthy of Wen Yushi's separate introduction.

After that, Wen Yushi introduced a few more people. Although they were all among the best and were descendants of rich families, there were two top leaders, Luo Dingyi and Situ Ci, so they were just a little bit less tasteful.

Of course, Xia Youren was also very mysterious in their eyes. If he was just a friend of Wen Yushi, there would be no need to introduce him separately like this.
