Madame Gu was also a little angry. She walked up to Gu Wei and slapped him, and said angrily, "Mother was suffering when she carried you. Listen to what you have to say, you bastard!"
Gu Wei didn't expect his mother, who always doted on him, to make a move on him. He couldn't help but to open his eyes wide and exclaim, "Mother, I'm your son!"
"It's exactly because you're my own son that I didn't hit you hard!" Madame Gu's face darkened. She was so angry by Gu Wei that she felt dizzy. She staggered a few steps to support herself. Seeing that Gu Wei was still covering his face and staring at Gu Qingzi, she frowned: "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and go to the kitchen and cook some chicken soup for your wife. "
He turned to Gu Qingzi and asked, a little perturbed, "Who is this child?" Do you want a handle or not? "
Gu Qingzi's expression didn't change, but she understood how important this child was to the Gu family. The incense could not be extinguished. She smiled and said, "He's a boy."
Joy appeared on Madame Gu's face. She turned around and looked at the sky. She lowered her head devoutly as she chanted, "Thank you Bodhisattva. Thank you Bodhisattva …"
Speaking of this Gu Wei, being able to cook chicken soup peacefully, that was really just a dream. Being slapped by Madame Gu and being scolded by Gu Qingzi, even his dad didn't stand on his side, this made him feel so stifled that he wanted to smash something.
How could he calm his heart down? As he walked, he said, "Come and see, pay off your debts and become rich. Everyone who enters the restaurant will bet on you sooner or later. You get rich sooner or later, you get rich sooner or later."
Hearing the familiar shout, Gu Wei looked up at the signboard and saw the waiter who was familiar with the entrance. It turned out that he had already walked to the gambling den.
Luckily, Gu Qingzi ran away fast at the beginning and was fine, so she took her debt and left. Gu Wei had a short memory so he didn't hurt his bones. He felt as if nothing had happened.
His hand subconsciously reached for the silver that was left in his pocket. He took the money back from the house by himself while everyone else was ignoring him. Gu Wei was itching to touch the silver.
While thinking about this, he walked towards the door of the gambling den. When the waiter saw Gu Wei, he smiled and bowed, "Master, please come in."
Gu Wei's vanity was instantly satisfied, "You still know how to speak." With that said, he entered the gambling den.
After entering, Gu Wei looked around and decided to bet on the size. It was all based on luck. He just got a son, and Bodhisattva was protecting him. His luck should be very good.
A few sharp-eyed people had already noticed Gu Wei. Gu Wei actually had some tricks up his sleeves. He had good ears, so he was quite capable in listening to these sounds. They followed behind whatever Gu Wei said.
The manor's servant glanced at the people guarding the perimeter. The waiter understood and coughed a few times. The people who were following Gu Wei Feng immediately withdrew their hands and left the crowd of people.
"Why did he leave?" Gu Wei was enjoying the feeling of others treating him as a god of wealth, but suddenly, everyone disappeared, which made Gu Wei a bit angry.
Those people looked at each other and left even faster. They walked to the back door of the gambling den and paid a third of their winnings. Then, they looked at the dealer in pain.
"Let's go." The manor was straightforward, one had to be tactful.
The few of them bowed and thanked the dealer before leaving the gambling den.
Gu Wei was still betting on himself, so how could he bear to leave? "Open it!" Seeing that the manor wasn't open, they started to panic.
The dealer reached down and touched a mechanism. The ball touched the bamboo, and the sieve under the bamboo turned over. It turned from a small one into a leopard.
After opening it.
The manor house laughed, "Leopard, eat everything. The manor house will return to its original state."
"What!" Gu Wei widened his eyes in shock, "My money!"
Just as he wanted to rush over, a thug on the side stopped Gu Wei, "Master, what are you trying to do?"
Gu Wei looked at his thug with hatred and was scared. Since Gu Wei was afraid of being bullied, he wouldn't dare to try anything, even if he didn't want to.
"I can still bet!" Gu Wei looked at the manor with his red eyes.
He could only watch as all the money he had obtained was gone. This was no different from digging out a piece of meat from his body, let alone the fact that this amount of money was enormous.
The dealer took a puff on his cigarette and shrugged his shoulders. He smiled kindly, "Then let's bet. It's just a matter of time before he gets lucky and wins again."
"Can I take some credit?" Gu Wei said without any confidence.
"This is a gambling den. Things that can be mortgaged are not owed on credit." The dealer chuckled, his tone taunting him.
"I remember that the Gu family still has rooms, right? You can mortgage the house. " The manor's owner encouraged, signalling for the waiter to bring out the silver.
The waiter understood and immediately brought out a box containing four big ingots of silver from under the table.
Gu Wei was originally hesitant about what could and couldn't be pawned. He was very clear on this fact, but in front of this silver, his hesitation completely disappeared.
"Where's the pen?" Gu Wei said.
The manor's owner narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Hurry up and hand the brush to this lord."
Gu Wei pressed down the finger mark, picked up the silver and put it down.
A quarter of an hour later, the Zhuang family smiled as they took the silver back. "It seems that the God of Fortune has only blessed you for a while today, so he hasn't been sitting at your house all this time."
At this moment, Gu Wei was totally out of clothes. He had lost a lot of breath and muttered as he spat out a mouthful of blood, "You, you guys, you actually … cheated!"
"Throw this person out." The house owner asked the waiter to bring the silver down and gave the order to the thug.
"Ah!" Gu Wei was in pain as he lay at the entrance of the gambling den unable to move. He felt as if a large amount of wounds had been inflicted on his back.
The supervisor looked at Gu Wei who was on the floor, "Boss said that you can't bring the deed to the house within three days. Your life, hehe." The supervisor looked at Gu Wei with a fake smile. Without finishing his sentence, he walked into the gambling den.
The people from the village saw a crowd of people gathered at the entrance of the gambling den. They went over to take a look and found that it was Gu Wei. They were shocked to find that it was the manager of the gambling den, the Gu family.
They were all neighbors, so they also felt sorry for Gu Wei. One of them even took off his robe and put it on Gu Wei. Together, they carried Gu Wei back to the Gu family.
"Wifey of the Gu family, come out and fetch your boss, right?" When these people went out to get some things, they did not know that Lian Qingmei had a child and could not get out of bed.
Gu Qingzi ran to open the door quickly. When she saw Gu Wei, blood dripped from the corner of his mouth. She subconsciously asked, "What happened?"
"Let Gu Wei in first."
"Alright."
Gu Wei was carried into the room. Lian Qingmei, who was drinking chicken soup beside him, saw Gu Wei like this, "Where's the doctor? Qingzi, go get a doctor. "
If he were to be carried back, his injuries would definitely be severe.
Gu Qingzi raised her eyebrows. "There's no rush. Tell me first how you got injured."
Gu Wei was holding back his anger. He was going to kick the bucket like this when Gu Qingzifei pulled him out and said, "Gu Qingzi!"
