【Gojo Family Housewife's Daily Life】Comics
Chapter 172: Crabs of the Moon. Gambling in Haocheng
Half a shell containing yellow is good for drinking wine, and two claws chopped into snow are good for adding to the meal.

Before she could adapt to the "science" time, Lu An called.
It turns out that in the blink of an eye, the Double Ninth Festival is here... Today is October 10th, and this year's Double Ninth Festival is on the 9th.
Lu An asked her to take her child home to celebrate the festival, and said it was Lu Ci's order.
What is going on here?
Did she go back home for the Double Ninth Festival last year?...I think not.
Alas, she couldn’t remember anything. This “world of science” made her dizzy.
Lu Qin felt that he needed to go to the room and use the soul-clarifying technique to open up his memory.

PS: Homecoming Theater:
(On the way back to Lu's house) On the private plane, Gojo Satoru and Lu Qin were sitting together chatting.
Lu Qin: "Your 'Cang' can teleport, right?"
Gojo Satoru: "Yeah, what's wrong? Just mark it in advance. By accurately orienting at two points, the distance between the starting point and the end point can be compressed, achieving an effect similar to teleportation."
Lu Qin chuckled, "Then...then we mark it at Lujia and then at Wujiaojia, can we save the toll and time on the road?"
Upon hearing this, Gojo Satoru immediately looked up at his wife and stopped drinking his drink. He didn't understand how Xiaoqin thought of asking this.
He saw Lu Qin still blinking her innocent watery green eyes at him.
Lu Qin saw Gojo Satoru looking at her for several seconds with an expression as if to say, "Is she really a genius?"
She was annoyed by his stare and said unhappily, "Why? I'm just asking casually."
Gojo Satoru put down his drink and said solemnly, "Xiaoqin, do you know that smuggling is illegal?"
This time it was Lu Qin's turn to be surprised, "Oh my god, Wujun! I have lived with you for more than six years, and this is the first day I know that you are actually a good citizen who abides by the law!"
-------------------
The Lu Family Courtyard is full of ancient charm. In the autumn colors, the chrysanthemums in the garden are blooming and competing for beauty.
As the breeze blows, clusters of chrysanthemums sway and dance gracefully. The faint chrysanthemum fragrance permeates the air and drifts away with the wind, making people feel relaxed and happy.
At this moment, on the three stone tables in the flower garden, plates of plump red and yellow crabs are shining. Looking closely, the textures on the crab shells are particularly beautiful, making people exclaim "it is indeed top-quality goods."
Wujo Xing watched as Bai Ju gently opened the crab shell for her, revealing the plump crab meat. The white and tender meat exuded an alluring aroma.
Xing became greedy after seeing this.
She cried out in a baby voice: "Yes! Yes...I want it! I want it!"
After hearing this, Lu Feng, who was standing by, quickly opened a crab shell, picked out a large piece of fresh crab meat and gave it to Xing.
Xiao Xing tasted a few bites and found the meat delicious and tender. She felt very happy in her mouth. She was so happy that she sat on a stilt chair and ate so much that her feet were shaking.
"Granny Feng is still the best. Sister Bai Ju is too nagging." Xiao Xing pouted and complained.
Bai Ju, who was picking meat from apricot crabs, was so upset that she couldn't help but call out to her mistress: Miss, son-in-law, please come back soon, she really can't handle this little ancestor alone...
Feng, who was sitting in a baby chair nearby, looked at everyone with curiosity and stared at his sister.
He had just been fed milk and egg custard and was not hungry; he was just curious about what everyone was doing.
After Xiao Xing ate for a while, she saw Lu Feng staring at her, so she jumped off her seat and took a piece of crab meat and fed it to her brother who was standing beside her.
"Come on, brother, eat!"
At this, Bai Ju and Bai Ji hurried over and tried to stop Xing!
Miss! You are not allowed to feed Master Feng random food!
Xiao Xing didn't understand again: Why can I eat it but my brother can't? Oh~~ I know, it must be that my brother doesn't deserve it, he only deserves to drink milk porridge. o(︶︿︶)o
————————————————————
At this moment, Lu Ci's study was a little quiet.
Gojo Satoru looked at the famous calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls of this quaint study, then returned to the Zen chair and drank a cup of tea.
He looked towards the inner room of the study behind the half-rolled bamboo curtain and smelled a faint scent of ink coming from the inner room.
Lu Qin had been in the inner room for a while, and Lu Ci talked to her about Xiaoliang.
He said that the Lu family had withdrawn the arrest warrant for Xiaoliang.
She was very relieved to hear this, and it was worth it that she would talk to her father Lu An and grandfather Lu Xiao about this matter almost every time she came back.
Let’s not talk about Lu Anna’s situation for now.
But to be honest, she couldn't believe that Grandpa Lu Xiao had no doubts about the real cause of Xiao Huan's death over the years.
She cooperated with Xiaoliang to investigate many things about the Lu family, from family business to cooperation with the extraordinary world.
They discovered that the struggle between their second and first branches was much more serious than they had imagined, but it had not broken out due to the pressure from their great-grandfather Lu Ci.
It may also be that they were still young at that time. Children who were still in school were not sensitive to the fights between family elders.
She was thinking about something and helped Lu Ci grind the ink.
At this time, on the rosewood desk, there were piles of files and various contracts, as if Lu Ci had rummaged through them in search of something.
Lu Ci sat on the sandalwood chair in front of the table, looking at the documents and contracts he had selected on the table, and picked a few of them, "Here, this is for you. From today on, all of these will be handed over to you."
Lu Qin stood beside him and took the documents he handed over with both hands. She read the terms carefully and was surprised to find that these were all property transfer agreements, and they were for the Lu family's properties in Gangdu and Haocheng. This was a lucrative job.
Although the two cities of Hong Kong and Macao are not large, they are prosperous places, and the cooperation project that the Lu family had previously discussed with the Five Immortals Sect is also there.
These were originally the property of the eldest wife, and had always been managed by her third uncle, Lü Xiang (a private statement: Lü Xiang was the youngest son of Lü Zhong, the eldest son of Lü Ci).
She thought for a while, looked up at Lu Ci, and said, "Grandpa, you want me to take care of all this? This is not good, won't my uncle be angry? Grandpa, do you want to reconsider this?"
Of course, she knew that the Hong Kong and Macau industry was very important, and it would be best if she could get it. Who wouldn't want such a great money bag and chips? She was just asking tentatively.
Lu Ci glanced at her, as if he had seen through her thoughts. "Here, take it. As for your Third Uncle... He did something wrong. It's inappropriate for me to care about this anymore."
As he spoke, he stood up and paced back and forth, "You are the oldest child in my life. You are grown up now, and it's time for you to help with some housework."
"Yes, Great Grandpa," she replied.
"Some things in Hong Kong and Macau are not convenient to handle in China, and you have been abroad for a long time. I think it is best to hand it over to you. Don't let me down."
"Great Grandpa, I know." She nodded.
"Okay, go down now. It's not good to keep your husband waiting for a long time." As Lu Ci was speaking, Lu Qin saw him take out a thin wolf howl pen, dip it in the ink she had just ground, and write something.
"Let's go to Hong Kong before we go to Tokyo this afternoon, and see if there is anything we need to deal with there. Let's go down."
"Then great-grandfather...I'm leaving too, bye." After Lu Qin finished speaking, he bowed respectfully, rolled up the curtain and left the inner room.
The curtain moved, and Gojo Satoru looked over.
Sure enough! It was Xiaoqin who came out!
I saw her lowering the curtain in a sly manner, with an unsuppressible smile on her face.
"What's wrong? Did you make a fortune? You look so happy." Gojo Satoru asked her with a smile.
Lu Qin waved the documents in his hand towards him, "How clever, my Wujun! I'm going to be rich!"
Gojo Satoru took the document from her hand and looked at it (Satoru could understand the traditional Chinese characters). "Do you like money so much? If you like money, tell me."
Lu Qin playfully raised his index finger and shook it at him, "A gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way. The money given by others is different from the money I earn from my own business. Do you understand?"
Her little expression immediately amused Gojo Satoru.
"What time do we leave this afternoon?"
"Let's go early and go to Hong Kong and Macau first. I, your sister, am going to review my own property! If you are naughty again and are kicked out of the Gojo family one day, I can support you." Lu Qin said jokingly.
She was just joking, but she didn't expect Gojo Satoru to really act out his words. He said in a pinched voice, "Has Xiaoqin never thought about supporting me before? I'm so cute and well-behaved! Um~ That's annoying. Now I want Xiaoqin to support me~"
Lu Qin was speechless...How was he cute? How was he well behaved? There were so many things to complain about that she couldn't even say anything.
"Don't talk like that! And you're fine, how could you be kicked out of the house?"
"This is very convenient. The head of the Gojo family, Gojo Satoru, will now announce that Gojo Satoru will be expelled from the Gojo family today!" he said "solemnly".
After saying that, he came up again, "Okay Qin-chan, you can support me now, let's settle down in Haocheng and never go back to Tokyo again!"
"nerve!"
(Lü Qin’s inner thoughts: Take my husband away!)
-------------------
Lu Qin thought about it and decided to go to Haocheng first. After all, it is a famous tourist city.
She went there with a very relaxed mood.
But as soon as she got off the plane, she was shocked by the grand welcome given by the employees of the Lu family's local industries.
After all, as soon as you walk out of the cabin, what comes into view is a row of muscular men in black suits—they are tall and strong, and look imposing, standing like a solid barrier at the airport.
What’s even more terrifying is that these muscular men in black suits stood in unison and shouted in unison: “Welcome, Miss!”
The voice was so loud and powerful that Xing covered her ears.
At this time, a man in his forties with freckles on his round face and wearing a pair of slightly funny glasses came forward with a flattering smile and said to Lu Qin in a flattering manner: "Miss, I am Lu Zhihao. During the time when the third master (referring to Lu Xiang) was away, I was the one who managed the business in Haocheng. I believe that Miss has read the report I submitted."
"You? Lu Zhihao? Your last name is Lu... Are you a member of our Lu family? Then why have I never seen you before?" Lu Qin really felt physically uncomfortable with his flattering expression.
"Give me a surname...Give me a surname because the master (Lü Ping: the heroine's uncle) appreciates me. I have always been proud of this and have served our Lu family diligently for twenty years."
“So what is this…” Lu Qin pointed at these muscular men, very puzzled. What does this scene… mean?
"These are all prepared to welcome the young lady! Young lady, don't you like them? If you like them, you are welcome to pick some. If you don't like them, we will change them to a batch with other styles next time..." But before he could finish his words, he received a deathly gaze from Gojo Satoru on the side.
Then he smiled at Gojo Satoru in a flattering manner, revealing his two shiny big teeth, and said in English: "This is my son-in-law, right? What do you like? I also..."
Lu Qin couldn't bear to listen any longer. "Go away, go away. Don't do such fancy things next time."
Really, she is not Meihui...
"Okay. Did you hear me? The young lady doesn't like anything fancy. Choose something purer for me next time!" he ordered hurriedly.
"Don't you have anything serious to report to me?" Lu Qin asked.
"Come on, miss, please get in the car and let's talk in the car." Lu Zhihao smiled and opened the door for Lu Qin and Gojo Satoru.
"I want you to open the car door too!" Xing muttered.
"Of course, of course. It's my honor to serve you, young lady."
At this time, Feng, who was held in Bai Ju's arms, kicked his legs and cried out "Ah". Although he couldn't speak, Lu Qin felt that Feng also wanted this kind of service.
When she got in the car, she listened to a more detailed report.
She asked casually, thinking that going to Hong Kong and Macau was just for fun and to check out the industry, and there was nothing wrong with that. After all, Macau was mainly engaged in the gaming industry, and how could it lose money?
The result is that you don’t know if you don’t ask, but you will be shocked if you ask.
Lu Zhihao said that last week a "bad boy" with a permed afro and speaking broken English came and made a lot of money, which was more than their usual profit of half a month.
Lu Qin knew very well that it was impossible to win all the time in gambling. If he kept winning, he must be cheating.
But in a casino with such modern equipment, ordinary old money would definitely not work because it would be too easy to be discovered.
So...this guy is most likely an alien.
And ability is likely to be related to luck and gambling...
Oh, this is interesting.
She still wanted to meet him.
PS: Hehe, Hyōjinji, your teacher and his wife are coming~(?????????)
