Chapter 48: Black Box Operations
There were hundreds of people standing downstairs. The signs were only 66, and there were only three lottery tickets. Even if you grabbed the sign, it would be difficult to get the lottery ticket.
The people present knew very well that it was up to luck to succeed. At this moment, many people silently begged God to worship their ancestors, eager to take this opportunity to get 88 taels of silver. Maybe with this sum of silver, they could change their destiny.
Seeing them lyrics, Qin Xiaoxiao found it very interesting. He clasped his hands together and learned to the point of being humble: "Please show your ancestors and ancestors, bless me to grab the sign and get the lottery..."
Qin Shan was so amused that he patted her little head: "It's better to beg yourself than to beg for ancestors."
Qin Xiaoxiao was embarrassed to stick out his tongue, hugged his father's neck and refused to look up, feeling that his father was laughing at him.
At this time, the noise of gongs and drums sounded again, and a wooden box with red silk appeared in the hands of the manager Deyilou, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The big manager untied the red silk and opened the wooden box, which contained thin wooden signs piled together, which were only two inches long and one inch wide. Even if such a small sign was scattered from the third floor, there was no need to worry about hurting people.
He showed the small wooden sign to the people below, which aroused everyone's appetite. Amid the urging of everyone, the big manager raised his hand and spread all the small wooden signs.
The two Qin Shan brothers stood too far with Qin Xiaoxiao in their arms, and those small wooden signs could not reach them at all. Qin Xiaoxiao, who was about to grab the small wooden signs, could only watch hundreds of people rushing fiercely and listening to the cursing voices.
Finally realizing that standing here, I couldn't grab the small wooden sign. Qin Xiaoxiao looked at Qin Shan resentfully, pouted and said, "Dad, are you kidding me!"
Qin Shan laughed, rubbed her little head and said, "When one day you look as strong as your father, your father will not be restricted."
"Ann--" Qin Xiaoxiao used his little hands to gesture the size gap between him and his father, and was completely desperate. His little head leaned on his father weakly and could not help himself.
The wooden sign grabbing was soon over. After robbing the wooden sign, those who were quick-witted and hid it immediately in order to prevent anyone from robbing it. Otherwise, they would only recognize the sign but not the person, and it would be difficult to guarantee that they would be stolen by those who did not rob.
The person who didn't get it shook his head and retreated to the side dejectedly, wanting to see which three people could finally get the only three lottery tickets.
Next was the highlight of the lottery draw. Qin Xiaoxiao cheered up again and stretched his neck to look into the crowd. Yu Guang accidentally caught a glimpse of a familiar little thing at the corner of the steps.
She looked closely and found that it wasn't her mistake. She secretly pulled Qin He's clothes and pointed to the ground and whispered: "Uncle San, a small sign!"
When Qin He heard this, he looked in the direction she pointed, and indeed saw a small sign lying on the ground, exactly like the ones who had snatched them before.
Qin Shan also saw it and was stunned: Is this OK?
No one knows why this brand appeared here. In short, this small brand with the word "一" was engraved into Qin Xiaoxiao's hands in this unexpected way.
"Brother, Xiaoxiao is so lucky, maybe she can really get the lottery." Looking at the small wooden sign played with by her little niece, Qin He joked with Qin Shan.
Qin He doesn't stay at home for much time, and what happens to his fortune happens at home? Usually when he goes home, he hears his family say something, but he has never seen Qin Xiaoxiao's luck that makes people powerless.
My family told him that Qin Xiaoxiao was lucky, but he thought it was his family who exaggerated it. Now that he has experienced it personally, he thinks that this little niece is really lucky.
Qin Shan gave Qin He a blank look and said angrily: "If you are willing to listen and laugh once in the past three years, you will have been admitted to the scholar!"
That's right, after adopting Qin Xiaoxiao, who was very lucky, Qin He still failed to get rid of the unlucky constitution of possessing a bad luck in the exam. Just before the exam, he did not take the umbrella handed over by Qin Xiaoxiao who had just learned to walk. He accidentally fell ill after a spring rain and missed the Tongsheng exam again.
Last year, there was a similar situation again. I accidentally wet the thick cotton coat that Qin Xiaoxiao put on him. I was frost-free in the exam room and had not finished the answer sheet.
This year he was even more unlucky. When he was attending an outdoor field trip organized by other students, he passed by a small bridge, and everyone else passed by. As soon as he got on the bridge, the bridge collapsed and fell into the cold river. He became ill again and did not recover until the county examination was over.
Qin He didn't expect that his elder brother would become irritable by saying a casual word. He was about to defend himself when the manager of Deyilou said again.
It turns out that the person who gets the small wooden sign has to draw a note from the box placed at the gate from large to small according to the numbers engraved on the wooden sign, which can only reach into one hand. As long as the words "88 essays", "888 essays" are written on the drawn note, you can use the note to exchange the corresponding money in the restaurant for the corresponding money.
The wooden sign Qin Xiaoxiao picked up was "Yi", so she would be the last person to draw notes.
Qin Xiaoxiao insisted on sucking such a fun thing, not letting her father and third uncle do it for her. But just as she got off Qin Shan and was about to line up to draw notes, there were suddenly a burst of indescribable feeling in her abdomen.
"Dad, I want to stinky!" Qin Xiaoxiao covered her stomach, feeling that she was almost unable to hold it in.
Qin Shan said to Qin He, picked her up and rushed into the teahouse.
The backyard of the teahouse has thatched cottage.
The father and daughter did not notice. As soon as they left, a man with sting eyes jumped over like a headless fly, staring at the ground with his eyes tightly, as if looking for something.
The time for squatting in the pit was neither long nor short. When Qin Xiaoxiao came out of the toilet lightly, Deyilou opposite was looking for "Yi" cards everywhere. It turned out that all the sixty-five people in the front had already finished drawing, just waiting for her "Yi"!
"Here is here, the small sign is here!" Qin Xiaoxiao ran to the restaurant gate, and did not forget to wave his little hand, revealing the small wooden sign in his hand. He did not notice that everyone present looked at him like a monster.
You know, the two small lottery titles of 88 and 888 have been drawn by the people in front of you, and the last note is left in the box. In other words, the last note is the biggest lottery title today - 88 taels of silver!
No one expected that the last small wooden sign would appear on a little doll who was three years old. But it was particularly unacceptable that such a small doll could actually grab the most valuable wooden sign from a group of big men.
Until he noticed Qin Shan and Qin He who were following behind Qin Xiaoxiao, several people who were blinded by huge lottery tickets and almost committed the robbery of wooden signs suddenly woke up and did not dare to do anything bad.
On the third floor, the manager who witnessed this scene looked gloomy and threw the teacup in his hand on the ground, smashing it to pieces.
