Chapter 954: Chapter 954: Landlord Contest_1 Chapter 954: Chapter 954: Landlord Contest_1 As long as Yang Wenxiao didn’t say anything, Qiao Xiaomai’s behavior couldn’t be considered unfilial.

Qiao Xiaomai ground her teeth and looked again at Yang Wenxiao, “So, what did you say?”

“It’s hard for even a clear official to settle domestic affairs. I won’t get involved in your family matters,” said Yang Wenxiao with a chuckle.

It all comes down to personal skills in the fight.

His non-involvement was already advantageous for Qiao Xiaomai. As long as Yang Wenxiao didn’t pressure her with filial piety, she had nothing to worry about.

She quickly expressed her thanks.

Yang Wenxiao waved his hand dismissively and changed the subject, “Didn’t you bring a deck of cards last time? How do you play that game?”

He was still curious about that matter, wanting to learn how to play card games.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai said, “That’s called ‘Fight the Landlord’.”

“Fight the Landlord?” Yang Wenxiao raised an eyebrow. He came from a large landowner background. What was Qiao Xiaomai aiming for by coming up with such a thing?

“According to the ‘Daqi Laws,’ Daqi doesn’t allow landlords now, so my third brother and I named the card game ‘Fight the Landlord.’ If a landlord dares to show up, we fight!” Qiao Xiaomai quickly explained, noticing his raised eyebrow.

Yang Wenxiao let out a long “oh,” realizing that was the meaning behind it.

“And how do you fight this landlord?” he asked.

“It’s even simpler. After we have lunch, I’ll demonstrate the game to you and His Highness the Crown Prince with my third brother,” Qiao Xiaomai said, relieved that the name’s origin had been sufficiently explained, and a smile appeared on her young face.

As long as Yang Wenxiao didn’t mind the name ‘Fight the Landlord,’ the card game could be promoted.

After lunch, the group returned to Yang Wenxiao’s courtyard to sit down and start playing ‘Fight the Landlord.’

The game only required three people, so Yang Hao watched from the side for now.

Truth be told, ‘Fight the Landlord’ was simpler than Mahjong, took less time per round, and didn’t require much in terms of setting – just a deck of cards and three willing participants, and it could be played anytime, anywhere.

After watching a couple rounds and getting a hang of the game, Yang Hao said immediately, “We should send this to Yeye; he can pass the time with it on his journeys.”

Playing Mahjong required a table, but not this game. One could just sit in a carriage, call over two guards, and play however they liked.

Yang Wenxiao also agreed, nodding, “Indeed, this is most suited for Yeye,”

Yang Ye spent most of his time on the road, and this game would be perfect for killing time.

As a result, Yang Wenxiao summoned Gao Lian and instructed him to rush the production of exquisite card decks and have them sent swiftly to Yang Ye.

The afternoon passed while they enjoyed ‘Fight the Landlord.’ In the evening, as Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang lay on their bed, recalling the day’s events, Tong Sanlang sighed, “I envy His Highness Prince Wei. Born in the Royal House, he has such a good brother.”

Thinking about Tong Dalaong and Tong Erlang, also his brothers, how could there be such a big difference!

Hearing this, Qiao Xiaomai sighed deeply, “Don’t be upset; it’s not worth it.”

It wasn’t worth getting angry over the likes of Tong Erlang and the others.

Indeed, when she heard Yang Wenxiao speak of these matters today, she felt almost no anger.

Now, she herself was burdened with a debt of over a billion taels of silver, making her level incomparable to that of the mediocre Tong Family.

Different levels, no need to be angry.

“Let’s think about the bicycle issue instead,” she quickly shifted her thoughts.

Mahjong, card games, sleds – all these were one-off deals. The bicycle was slightly more intricate, particularly because of the chain, but essentially, it was also a one-time sale.

The Wei Taste Residence was currently busy manufacturing sleds, Mahjong, and card games, so they probably had no time to make bicycles.
