Chapter 607: The Charm of Mahjong
"Snapped!"
Picking up a prepared huanghuali mahjong tile, Wang Bing slapped it on the table.
"Well, that's what it feels like!"
Listening to the crisp sound, even though Wang Bing was not very interested in playing mahjong, he still couldn't help but feel a little emotional at this moment.
With the hard work of several craftsmen and carving masters, a pair of Chongqing Mahjong without white spots in the middle and no wind from east to west was made in just half a day.
Afterwards, after putting these carved, colored, polished mahjong tiles into a small wooden box also made of huanghuali wood, Wang Bing happily ran to the backyard to give them to his daughters-in-law.
The treasure is gone.
…
"Husband, are these the real mahjong tiles you are talking about? Why do they feel like dominoes? Even if they are made like this, you can't hold many tiles in your hand. How do you play with them?"
Each picked up one or two purple-red mahjong tiles from the huanghuali wooden box containing mahjong. The women suddenly couldn't help but look at Wang Bing with puzzled faces.
"Haha, these new mahjong tiles naturally require a new way to play! If you can't hold them in your hands, just put them on the table!"
After saying that, Wang Bing dumped the entire mahjong set on the table with a crash.
"Same as dominoes, this mahjong also has to shuffle the cards first, then code and draw the cards..."
"Wow, wow, wow..."
Under the curious gazes of several daughters-in-law, Wang Bing began to skillfully shuffle and number the cards!
Although he was not very interested in mahjong in his previous life, it does not mean that he cannot play. For this kind of mahjong, which relies more on luck than skill without cheating, how old is Wang Bing?
I'll take a look at it later.
"You all sit down on your own side, and now my husband will teach you this new way to play mahjong, haha!"
Soon, after the cards were numbered, he helped the four real wives, the female instructor, Yongning, Dong Ge, and Mayunqiao, to the table one by one.
"First roll the dice to determine where to start drawing cards!"
After helping the girls sit down, Wang Bing grabbed the jade-carved dice on the table, then threw it on the table and began to explain to the girls how to play the new mahjong tiles.
"Collecting three cards of the same suit with the same number or three cards with connected numbers is called a 'sentence'. Touch one and play one. You don't have to play the big ones like the mahjong cards. You just need to play the ones you don't need."
Just go out, and then find a way to collect the 'Four Sentences' cards plus a pair of 'Trump Cards', and that's a tie..."
Wang Bing, who was not very interested in mahjong in his previous life, is now very interested in teaching his daughters-in-law how to play cards.
This is not nonsense. Although he is not interested in playing mahjong, who wouldn't want to teach a beautiful woman to play mahjong?
"Huh? Husband, the way to play these new mahjong tiles is indeed much more interesting than the original mahjong tiles!"
"It's just right, and it's simple, hehe..."
After being taught to play mahjong twice by Wang Bing, several women quickly learned mahjong, which was already very easy to learn. Even Brother Dong, a 'wild girl' who has never used his brain, is now able to play mahjong.
They were so happy that Xiao Lian and Mu He looked at it with envy.
"Don't be greedy for them, I'll let my husband do a few more sets tomorrow!"
Seeing Xiao Lian and Mu He's greedy looks, Wang Bing quickly coaxed the two of them.
Although Xiaolian and Muhe are just 'concubines', not as good as a few real wives, they still have the concubine status. Compared with ordinary people, let alone concubines, even the main wife is missing.
Bad score.
Moreover, Wang Bing is a guy who always likes to drink a bowl of water evenly, so he will never forget the two girls in such a trivial matter.
"Muhe, thank you sir!"
"Xiao Lian knows that the young master is the best, hee hee!"
Unlike several other real wives, Mu He and Xiao Lian still habitually addressed him as 'young master' and 'gongzi'.
…
'What a sin! Why should I teach them how to play mahjong when it's okay? Isn't this just causing trouble for myself?'
A few days later, Wang Bing, who was transforming into a boy and carrying tea to the mahjong table, was speechless when he heard the sound of mahjong in the backyard.
It turns out that as I played mahjong more and more, not to mention my several wives, even my mother and sister-in-law were soon dragged into the trap by a few people.
Moreover, some people who were very addicted to mahjong, even the maids in the mansion, were dragged into 'gathering for gambling'.
Not only did Wang Bing, a dignified prince, have to serve as a servant to serve them tea and water, but even the originally quiet backyard of the Champion House was now filled with the sound of mahjong all day long, making Wang Bing feel like he was back in the hundreds of years.
In the later years, there was an era when 'teahouses' were everywhere.
"Third brother, look at the good things you have done! Now your mother spends all day at the mahjong table and doesn't care about the affairs of the house. I can't even have a delicious meal..."
As soon as he came out from delivering tea to a group of 'female gamblers', the old man on a walking stick glanced at him with an angry look on his face.
"Third brother, I and your sister-in-law were both led astray by your wife, so my father and I can only eat and drink in your champion house!"
Obviously, the second brother Wang Dongna is also quite dissatisfied with the fact that his daughter-in-law was "led astray".
"Dad, second brother, I still want to go to your place to make a living! After all, you still have maids and old ladies to cook, but I have all been 'requisitioned' by them..."
Seeing the expressions on his father's and second brother's faces that were convinced of him, Wang Bing couldn't help but became speechless.
Speaking of which, although Wang Bing has never thought about promoting the concept of 'everyone is equal' in this era, in general, the maids and servants of the Champion House are much more free and bold than other families.
And now that they have obtained the "imperial edict" from several other mistresses, the maids of the champion princes are now even more "unscrupulous".
As for the servants, it’s okay to let them do other things. As for cooking, forget it!
So these days, in addition to cooking by himself, Wang Bing can only order takeout from restaurants.
"You are asking for it. Who told you not to do your job properly and stay at home all day to grow up with your children?"
Seeing Wang Bing's wry smile, his father couldn't help but look over with a deserved expression.
"Dad, don't forget, we are relatives. Not doing our job is our biggest job, hehe!"
Hearing his father's complaint, Wang Bing was not ashamed, but smiled proudly.
"Well, you third child, I want to see how you turn this idle job into a 'real job'!"
Just when Wang Bing was not ashamed, but instead proud of it and shouted that he should treat his "non-business" as "business", a sullen voice came from the door, and the chubby face of the little fat man was seen.
The door flashed out from behind the wall.
