Black Lotus is reborn. Hush! Just lie down and be quiet.

Xia Qingqing's expression changed immediately, her eyes widened, and she said unhappily, "You are the stupid one, I am the smart one!"

Uncle Deng smiled awkwardly, touched his nose and chin with his hands that didn't know where to put them, and then poured all the candies on the plate into Xia Qingqing's bag.

Xia Qingqing didn't hesitate to accept all of them, stood up and said goodbye, and then said, "I'm smart!"

"Yes, yes, you are extremely smart, and I am stupid!"

Uncle Deng nodded vigorously. He regretted his actions so much. The girl was not stupid, but brave. He was the one who failed to recognize the value of this girl.

Lady Xia Qingqing generously forgave him and even exchanged phone numbers with him for future contact.

Just then a bus drove by and stopped at the platform. Xia Qingqing rushed across the street, jumped on the bus, chose a window seat, stretched her hand out of the window and waved to Uncle Deng.

Uncle Deng also waved his hand and grinned. His depressed mood became brighter. After a while, he called his wife and asked her to come back quickly. Qing girl was right. If you suffer enough, there will be endless suffering. It is better to get out of it as soon as possible.

Now that the old couple are still in good health and have a decent retirement salary, they should visit all the places they wanted to go when they were young, so as to avoid regrets when they are too old to walk.

Xia Qingqing took the bus back to the alley. There was a card table in front of the convenience store. Sister Xu and Uncle Li were playing mahjong. Uncle Liu didn't join them and just watched from the side.

"Nijo!"

"Bullshit!"

Uncle Li played a two-straight card, and Sister Xu pushed it down with a bang, winning.

"Uncle Li, what's wrong with you? You always make mistakes. Did you touch something you shouldn't touch?" Sister Xu joked.

"I just bumped into Liu Shimei when I went to the toilet. I washed my hands three times, but it's still bad luck!"

Uncle Li glared at Uncle Liu with disdain and blamed him for the firecrackers.

"Li Shiren, you are not as capable as others, so you can only make excuses. It was clearly you who hit me, and I still think it's bad luck!" Uncle Liu cursed angrily.

Seeing that the two were about to start another verbal fight, Sister Xu stopped them and started the next round of mahjong.

Xia Qingqing walked to the card table, generously grabbed a handful of candy from her bag, and put it on the table for everyone to eat.

"Qingqing got rich?"

Sister Xu peeled a piece of toffee and ate it, making a joke.

"Well, I made a small fortune. Oh, Uncle Li, you... oh!"

Xia Qingqing braked in time and could not speak while looking at the cards, but Uncle Li's card skills were really bad. A good hand of cards was ruined by him. Originally, there were only three steps away from winning, but after his play, it became thirty steps, and winning was nowhere in sight.

"Oh, thank you, Lao Li!"

An old lady won the game with a smile on her face. It was Uncle Li who ordered the cannon. Although he was not good at it, he had a good attitude. He was still smiling even after ordering so many cannons.

Xia Qingqing could see that Uncle Li was just a bad player with a strong addiction to playing cards. He had almost no card skills. Fortunately, the wins and losses in the alley card games were rare. A day's play would only earn a few dimes, so the important thing was to participate.

"Ouch, my stomach hurts. Xiao Xia, help me play a few games. If you win, it's yours, and if you lose, it's mine."

Uncle Li ran to the toilet in a hurry and asked Xia Qingqing to help him play a few games.

Xia Qingqing has been itching to do something. In her previous life, there was a female prisoner in the prison cell who was a master of Pai Gow. She was once the most popular person in the Macau Casino, but later she offended a big boss in the underworld. This woman simply ran to the prison to avoid revenge.

When the eldest sister had nothing to do, she taught her fellow inmates how to play cards. In the end, she only taught Xia Qingqing because the eldest sister said she had the best talent.

In the previous life, after the eldest sister was released from prison, she asked Xia Qingqing to find her after she was released from prison. However, at that time, Xia Qingqing was only thinking about revenge and had no intention of becoming a gambling queen.

I don’t know if I will have the chance to meet my elder sister again in this life?

Uncle Li finished his work in the toilet happily, washed his hands, and came back leisurely. He heard Xia Qingqing's crisp voice from afar.

"Self-draw, all the same color, pairs, win!"

Xia Qingqing smiled and stretched out her hand. Sister Xu and the other two aunts checked her cards without giving up. They checked three times and found that it was exactly the same hand with a pair. They had to pay eight times the money.

"Xiao Xia was so lucky. In this hand, he lost all the money I won and even lost 20 cents." An old lady said with concern.

"One more round. Newbies are lucky, but they won't be able to do it after a few rounds."

Sister Xu was aroused and asked Uncle Li to stand aside while she continued to work with Xia Qingqing.

"Tian Hu!"

"Sister Xu, I'm sorry, I messed up!"

"Aunt Wang, thank you!"

Xia Qingqing won three consecutive times, and they were all big ones. Uncle Li and Uncle Liu's eyes bulged out of their sockets.

"Look, this is how you play cards!"

Uncle Liu poked Uncle Li, deliberately provoking him.

Uncle Li rolled his eyes in annoyance and asked Xia Qingqing to get up in disbelief. He sat down and continued beating her.

"It must be that my seat has regained its popularity. I will definitely win this time!"

Uncle Li was full of confidence, but in less than three minutes, his face was hit and it hurt. It was he who fired the shot again, and it went off three times.

"Hahahaha, Li Shiren, you haven't washed your hands of touching birds yet!"

Uncle Liu laughed so hard that tears came out of his eyes. Uncle Li glared at him fiercely and scolded him, "What are you talking about, little girl? You are a teacher, but you are not civilized at all!"

"What did I say? It's obviously you who have a crooked brain!"

Uncle Liu refused to admit that he had made a dirty joke. Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Xia Qingqing left. What was wrong with such a dirty thing? She had seen all kinds of dirty things in prison.

"Xiao Xia, this money is for you. We agreed that the winnings will be yours."

Uncle Li called her over and stuffed the money he had just won into her bag, which was more than two yuan.

"I'll just take one."

Xia Qingqing couldn't refuse, so she took the dollar and ran away. Uncle Li smiled and shook his head and continued to set off firecrackers.

As the sky gradually darkened, the mahjong game in the convenience store was still going on, but the people had changed. Uncle Li watched others play from the side and offered suggestions from time to time, but was disliked by everyone.

"Shh!"

Grandpa Liu hushed, and everyone looked towards the entrance of the alley. Yang Guozhu came back in a daze, holding an urn in his hands.

After Yang Guozhu walked away, Uncle Li whispered, "It's Yang Hongjie's, right?"

"It's what he deserves. This beast Yang Hongjie should have been shot long ago!"

Everyone applauded and said it would be even better if Yang Guozhu could be shot as well.

Two days later, Yang Hongbing's case went to trial. Xia Qingqing did not go, but Uncle Li and Uncle Liu went to listen. After they came back, they announced the verdict in the alley.

"He was sentenced to five years in prison, and he's almost thirty when he's released!"

"Two of the three were shot, and one is still in jail. All the signs in our alley have been ruined by this family!"

Everyone hated the Yang family and felt that it was unlucky to live in the same alley with this family.

People in the alley discovered that Yang Guozhu had aged visibly. He used to be energetic and in his fifties, but he looked only in his early forties. Now he has aged a lot, with gray hair, a hunched back, and he has lost a lot of weight, looking even gloomier.

Xia Qingqing entered the space, tore off Yang Hongjie's name on the death list, and drew a red cross on Xu Manru's name.

She bought some processed fruits and went to visit Xu Manru.
