576 Regardless of whether its a black cat or a white cat

After each of them had placed their bets, Gu Nian explained the meaning of two hundred and fifty to the sisters in a language that was easier to understand for the people of great Zhou.

sisi, Gu Xin laughed, if they cant hold on for 250, then Huo Junhao will be letting you down for overestimating him!

its probably really 250, Gu Hui said. but he wont be able to last until 250.

Gu si looked at Gu Nian and said in a depressed tone, Sister niannian, if thats the case, I dont think they can hold on any longer. By then, well be two hundred and fifty!

Bah, dont talk nonsense! Gu Nian said. Were not two hundred and fifty. Even if we lose, itll be the two of them who are two hundred and fifty.

As the four sisters spoke, they completely ignored Huo Junhaos gesticulating gesture and his silent urging for them to leave.

Lu Zheng saw his sisters from afar and ran over with a smile.

What are you guys doing here? Lu Zheng asked with a smile.

Were taking a walk. Big brother Yuanyuan, are you and second brother Xue here for food too? Gu Xin asked.

I havent even eaten yet! Where would there be food? Lu Zheng said pitifully.

In the past, he was in charge of one persons meal and could even come to the Gu residence to freeload from time to time. However, after the Emperor left and Xue Xiao er moved in, he had to be in charge of two peoples meal. Now, the brat Huo Junhao came again and asked for three peoples meal. These two young masters were the kind that almost set the kitchen on fire.

ah Yuan, you guys are too much. I called you over to eat, but you didnt come. Youre asking for trouble! Gu Hui pouted and said.

[ Lu Zheng: I want to, too. Ive been tricked by second uncle. Im too embarra.s.sed to freeload a meal! ]

Gu shouxin would give him questions from time to time. If he answered, he could freeload a meal. If he didnt answer, he would be attacked with words, which was more hurtful than a sword attack!

After the Emperor left, Xue Er received the same treatment, so he felt balanced.

Brother Yuanyuan, why did you come out if you didnt eat? Hurry up and go back to cook! Gu Xin said.

Well, that Rascal Huo Junhao said he wanted to catch fish in the pond, so here we are. Niannian, teach me some fish cooking methods later! Lu Yang said.

Good! As long as you catch it, Ill make you some grilled fis.h.!.+ Itll be a good supper for us. Gu Nian said in a serious tone.

Brother, second brother, this way, this way! Huo Junhao waved his hands by the pond.

Ill go over first! Lu Zheng took a look and smiled at his sisters.

Xue Qianyu nodded at his sister and followed. He was a man of few words. He would not take the initiative to speak unless he had nothing to do. Other than the time when he was dissing Lu Zheng, he had recently picked on Meng Meng and Huo Junhao.

Gu Xin was a little excited. hurry up! Lets count together! We wont mess up the rhythm!

One, two, three, Zhenzhen,

The sisters started counting from the moment Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu ran over.

This was a game that they had only started making recently, and it was mainly for Gu si. Gu si could only count to one hundred before, but after seeing Meng Meng fight against Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu twice, Gu Xin had the idea to count with Gu si.

The four sisters would always guess how long Meng Meng could last. Last time, they had already counted to 186.

On the count of twenty, Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu picked up their harpoons. On the count of thirty, Meng Meng and Huo Junhao made their move. On the count of thirty-five, a large net came from the side. Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu went into the water, not forgetting to drag Huo Junhao, who was the closest, into the water.

Brat, youve got guts! Lu Zheng said. Betray your brother? Ill let you eat some pond water!

Huo Junhao,brother Meng, save me.

Meng Meng, are you a man? Xue Qianyu asked. Youre hiding your head but showing your tail. I think your son has grown for nothing. Your Meng familys ancestors were angered to death by you again in their graves!

Meng Meng was still fiddling with his net, trying to trap the two of them.This has nothing to do with men. Second uncle said that alls fair in war! No matter if its a black cat or a white cat, its a good cat if it can catch a mouse!

Lu Zheng threw Huo Junhao into the net and dodged.
