Chapter 2638: Chapter 2639: Return to Tianyun (205)

Ye Zhi said, "What do you have there? It’s fine to play once or twice, but when you play too many times, it’s not fun at all."

Gong Juechen just smiled.

An Jing laughed and said, "There’s nothing much fun here either."

Ye Zhi immediately laughed and said, "Then let’s chat, chatting is good too. Anyway, it’s better than just being two people together."

Gong Juechen said, "Zhizhi, you’re breaking my heart. Is it really so bad to be with me?"

Ye Zhi said, "It’s not that bad. It’s just that seeing each other every day and saying the same things gets a bit boring. It’s better to occasionally come to see the Boss and brother-in-law."

An Jing laughed and said, "My husband and I are always together, and I don’t get bored. But I am quite bored too. It’s just that I don’t want to stay in the house every day. But it’s so cold outside; there’s no help for it. Better to stay inside. We’re not young anymore, don’t want to get sick and worry the kids."

Ye Zhi said, "I know. It truly is hard to sit still in the house. Besides, it’s not too far to come here, no problem. If my husband and I can’t even walk this short distance, we’d really be old and useless."

An Jing laughed and said, "You’re both actually pretty useful. At your age, I don’t see others as healthy as you two."

Ye Zhi laughed and said, "Right now, we don’t have any grand ambitions, just hoping for good health, to live a few more years, and enjoy life’s pleasures."

An Jing immediately said, "That’s what my brother-in-law and I think too. We truly wish the four of us could live to be old monsters."

Gong Juechen playfully said, "That would be fun; many people would call us ancestors then."

"Hahaha..." An Jing and Ye Zhi were both amused and laughed heartily.

Su Changyi also raised a corner of his mouth. Even though he was already surrounded by children and grandchildren, he surely hoped for even more descendants.

"Ye Zi, how about this," An Jing suddenly said, "In modern times people often play Mahjong. Why don’t we get a set together and play it? It seems like few people here play Mahjong for fun, and I’ve heard that playing Mahjong can even sharpen the mind."

"That’s a great idea!" Ye Zhi immediately agreed enthusiastically.

Su Changyi had traveled to modern times once, so he knew what Mahjong was.

However, Gong Juechen, although aware that Ye Zhi and An Jing weren’t originally from this world, didn’t know what Mahjong was. So he playfully asked, "You guys are talking among yourselves, but at least explain to someone like me who doesn’t know what Mahjong is."

Ye Zhi laughed and said, "It’s a kind of game. You can gamble with it; whoever loses will pay the amount they lost."

Gong Juechen immediately said, "Wouldn’t that be a boon for Qinger?! If Qinger knew about this, he’d definitely put it in his gambling houses."

An Jing laughed and said, "I hadn’t thought of that. Knowing Qinger’s personality, once we get a Mahjong set made, he might actually do just that. But luckily, he collects money for the country, not ill-gotten gains, so let him be."

Ye Zhi said, "So should the Boss handle making the Mahjong set or should I?"

An Jing laughed and said, "Let Gong Juechen do it. The Slayer Tower has many skilled people; they can quickly craft a set. I think making two sets is best: one for Qinger to use as a template. That’d be convenient."

Ye Zhi nodded and laughed, "It seems the Boss has thought things through. So, Gong Juechen, we’ll leave it to you. I’ll go back and draw what the Mahjong pieces look like, and you can have the craftsmen make them according to my drawings."
