Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild - Chapter 223

Chapter 223: Fight the Landlord

Dongfang Yuechu was marrying Shi Yi’s second brother, Shi Guang. This was also the reason why Chu Sihan was so concerned about this matter.

Xianger maintained her kneeling posture and pursed her lips as she wept silently.

She knew that she was selfish and had let Dongfang Yuechu down. However, she was afraid of death. She was only in her teens, at the tender age where she was undergoing puberty. She was indignant.

Lu Sheng looked at her indifferently for a while before walking out of the screen.

“Who’s that inside?” Lu Zhou craned his neck and asked curiously, “Did you kidnap someone?”

“What kidnap? We’re trying to save her. Without us, she would have died long ago.”

Lu Sheng yawned and started to chase him away. “Lord, Master, it’s getting late. It’s time to rest.”

“Okay.”

Lu Zhou nodded and finished the last bite of braised meat. Then, he stood up and said to Chu Sihan, “Lad, I’ll stay with you.”

Chu Sihan was speechless.

Could he refuse?

“Go, go, go!”

Seeing that Chu Sihan was still sitting, Lu Zhou lifted him up manually.

“I’ll walk myself.”

Chu Sihan brushed his hand away unhappily and said to Lu Sheng in a low voice, “Rest early.”

Lu Sheng smiled and nodded. “Yes, Lord. Good night!”

“What about me?”

Lu Zhou, who had walked to the door, returned and asked Lu Sheng bitterly.

Lu Sheng was stunned and could not react. “What about you?”

“Good night!” Lu Zhou snorted coldly. “You said good night to this lad, but didn’t say anything to me.”

Lu Sheng was speechless.

The older he was, the more childish he became.

After complaining, Lu Sheng smiled insincerely and said, “Good night, Master!”

“That’s more like it.”

Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow and glanced at Chu Sihan proudly before leaving with his hands behind his back.

Chu Sihan stared at his back expressionlessly for a while before sighing and shaking his head. “Uncle-Master Lu is really getting more indecent the older he gets.”

Lu Sheng chuckled. “Lord, go back and rest early too.”

The next day.

After Lu Sheng got someone to send Xianger some food, she went next door to have a meal with Lu Zhou and Chu Sihan.

After breakfast, on a whim, Lu Zhou took out a deck of poker cards and asked Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan to play Fight the Landlord with him.

“I don’t know how.”

Chu Sihan rejected without thinking.

Lu Sheng smiled and said, “It’s alright, Lord. I can teach you if you don’t know how.”

Chu Sihan’s eyes darted around and he nodded at her. “Okay.”

How could he not know how to play? Back in the Netherworld, he had seen many ghosts play.

Especially Yun Guagua. As long as it was related to gambling, he would be involved in almost everything.

From time to time, he would invite the guards of Water Palace to play with him. When he lost money, he would scream.

Although Chu Sihan had never played before, he knew how to play under the influence of Yun Guagua.

However, since the girl wanted to teach him, he could just pretend.

Hence, Lu Sheng and Lu Zhou taught Chu Sihan how to play Fight the Landlord the whole morning.

After he learned it, it was time for lunch.

After lunch, the three of them officially started playing.

After shuffling the cards, Lu Zhou said lightly, “Let me make this clear first. If the farmer wins, each person will get ten taels. If the landlord wins, each person will get ten taels.”

“Ten taels?!” Lu Sheng’s eyes lit up and she nodded frantically. “Okay, okay!”

Chu Sihan smiled and did not object.

Hence, Lu Sheng won almost every round.

“Damn!”

When Lu Zhou saw Chu Sihan’s cards, he couldn’t help but curse. “You must have done it on purpose. When she had her last card, why didn’t you block her with your trump card?”
