Ming Dynasty: At the beginning of the game, Lao Zhu resigned and retired.

As an "informed person", although Mr. Hu has an insider like Hu Xinyue who has first-hand information, Mr. Hu himself is almost not interested in this matter.

At most, when he heard Zhu Biao's suggestion that the princes come to him for internship, he muttered a few words and cursed Zhu Yuanzhang and his father.

Even the swear words are still the same old ones.

It hasn't changed at all.

Not to mention Hu Xinyue, the eldest daughter of the Hu family, even Hu Xinxing, the youngest daughter of the Hu family, could start to curse after hearing it so many times.

Of course, Master Hu stopped him.

After all, the Zhu family is the emperor, so it doesn't matter if he scolds them because of their seniority and friendship. But for a little girl like Hu Xinxing to do this is somewhat against the rules.

If this gets out, it means that the Hu family looks down on the Zhu family.

That would be a lot of fun.

The Hu family was just as lively during this Spring Festival as they closed the door and enjoyed themselves.

Isn't Mr. Hu bored?

simply!

The first Hu Mansion Mahjong Competition has begun!

Actually, this matter was also caused by Master Hu.

Originally, wouldn't it be nice for everyone to take some time off to chat, drink some wine, and taste some tea?

As a result, Mr. Hu managed to bring out the "quintessence of Chinese culture" - mahjong.

The fact that this thing has become so popular in our later generations and is loved by the general public must be due to some compatibility between the two.

At least after mahjong became popular in palaces, social gatherings and other places, it has now spread throughout the Ming Dynasty.

Nowadays, the material of mahjong has long since changed from the jade used by Mr. Hu in the beginning to wood.

Without him!

It’s cheap!

Even if the carving is not that good, but it has some interest, you can see the pattern clearly and you can feel the cards, isn't that enough? What's the point of a bicycle?

It was precisely because of the rapid popularity of mahjong that the Hu family had the mass base to hold the first mahjong competition.

As for the competition venue, competition rules, competition system and so on, it was too simple for Master Hu.

First, he asked someone to collect and prepare fifty sets of mahjong and matching tables and chairs.

Then, it’s time to mobilize the masses.

Mr. Hu paid the gambling money, and the game was fair and just, all depending on skill and luck;

Each person received a thousand brand new copper coins strung together with red strings.

This is the starting capital!

Then, there will be four people at a table. If one of them is completely out of money, the two people with the most chips at the table will be selected to advance to the winner group.

The remaining one entered the loser group.

This cycle will continue, and after a few rounds, the semi-finals and finals will be reached.

The rules are simple and clear. If you really don’t understand, just know the principle.

Whoever wins in the end will know who is the first mahjong king of the Hu family.

Simple or not?

Anyway, starting from the fifth day of the first lunar month, the Hu Mansion was filled with the sound of mahjong.

It was so lively.

Even if you haven't signed up, you won't miss the opportunity to watch the fun.

It's quite interesting to come over and drink tea, eat snacks, and listen to these people playing cards while swearing and making jokes.

But as Master Hu was fighting, he felt something was wrong.

Damn, are these little bastards targeting me specifically?

Whenever he wants to be a big shot, everyone else will rush to make a big deal no matter how small their little shit is;

And whenever he asks for a card, others would rather not listen to the card but hold the cards tightly in their hands!

My goodness, is there some misunderstanding about me?

How did you know that I’m good at counting cards?

I don’t usually show it!

Mr. Hu has a lot of grievances but has no place to vent them!

But... at this moment, he has already left the table.

Looking at the excited Hu Renbin, Anqing and Nana, Master Hu smacked his lips, walked aside speechlessly and picked up Xiao Xing'er.

Oh, damn, I miscalculated.

The original purpose of creating this thing was to give myself something interesting to watch and to play cards happily.

As a result, on the first day of the competition, he was eliminated in the first round.

I swear to God, as the person with the most experience playing mahjong here, he didn’t use any tricks, right?

As a result, he was kicked out.

However, as he held Xiao Xing'er and watched a group of people laughing and making noise there, Master Hu was no longer angry.

Damn, even though I couldn’t get rid of my mahjong addiction, I did get to see the excitement.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

This is how the Chinese New Year should look like.

Eating and drinking, having fun, smiles on faces, no worries, nothing to worry about, it’s great!

Master Hu looks so relaxed while holding little Xing'er.

Looking here and there, he has become the bully of the mahjong arena.

He has already left the field and been eliminated, and he still has the highest status in the field, so he is naturally qualified to be hated by everyone.

Look at other people's cards, and after a game is over, tell them that they are not good at playing cards, and then point fingers at them in front of them...

Wow, Master Hu is really using it right next to my face.

But it happened that Master Hu not only had a high status, but he was also really good at playing cards.

If it weren't for the secret cooperation of the three rebellious son in the first game, and his mediocre luck, he wouldn't have been idle so early.

After hanging around for two days, Master Hu couldn't stand the resentful looks of the people present anymore, so he simply stopped coming.

Everyone is pure.

He took Xiao Xing'er to his own "entertainment room" and went to play chess on the kang while drinking tea and eating snacks.

What chess to play?

For such a young girl, of course she has to play Gobang!

The rules are simple, and the little girl can play with a little bit of thinking. With the help of Master Hu, the two of them have a lot of fun playing.

And Xiao Xing'er also became addicted to this little game between father and daughter.

This game is simple and easy to play, but if you think about it more, you can figure out a lot of things.

The key is that each time Master Hu uses it, he can come up with something different.

Xiao Xing'er was so happy.

I love this 'parent-child game' to the extreme.

Seeing Xiao Xing'er's happy expression, Master Hu turned around and took out the tangram.

He played with this thing when he was a child.

It was one of the rare "toys" in school when I was a child.

After all, the cost is really low.

Just cut a rectangular wooden board into seven pieces.

Although the shapes of each piece are different, at least Master Hu knows them, and he can play with them as long as they are roughly the same.

Then...the little girl fell in love with it again.

Tangram puzzles require imagination.

What children lack the least is imagination!
