Xi Rui brought the other two dandies into the house.

They saw Liang Youxiao leisurely drinking tea and munching.

Because of the Bai family's teahouse, Kungfu tea had become popular in the capital.

Xi Rui sat over and poured himself a cup of tea. "Youxiao, your legs are still not broken yet?"

Liang Youxiao raised his eyebrows. "Your legs aren't broken either. Why would mine be?

"Why did you come to see me today?"

After saying that, he tossed a few nougat to the three of them.

Xi Rui took one and put it in his mouth.

His eyes lit up. "What kind of pastry is this? It tastes really good."

Liang Youxiao smiled and said, "It's not a pastry. It's nougat."

Xi Rui was stunned. "Is this a type of sugar?"

He had only eaten caramel, brown sugar, and yellow sugar. He had never eaten this kind of sugar before.

Liang Youxiao nodded. "That's right. If you like it, I'll get someone to give you a bag for you to bring back."

He had already bought a batch of nougat, milk sugar, and fructose from Shi Qingluo, as well as Nanxi county's vermicelli, sesame paste, and so on.

However, he came back without much bulky goods. Transporting goods by land was much slower, and would reach the capital a few days later.

Xi Rui liked to eat sugary food.

He said leisurely, "Sure, give me one more pack. I'll bring it back for my grandmother to taste too."

As long as there was something that he could give to his grandmother and mother, he would not leave it out.

Therefore, no matter what happened outside, no matter how angry his father was, he could still live a good life.

"No problem." Liang Youxiao agreed with him on this.

As the Chinese saying goes, living with the elderly was like having a treasure at home, whether their legs would be broken depended on whether they could coax their grandmothers well. Xi Rui quickly got to the main topic. "I heard that you brought back some Mahjong sets from outside. I heard it's very fun?"

Yesterday, Old Master Liang went to play Mahjong with his grandfather.

At first, his grandfather was very disdainful and felt that playing this would cause his mind to be too relaxed such that he lost his ambition for greater pursuit.

But in the end, if not because of his family's persuasion, his grandfather actually wanted to play Mahjong with his three friends throughout the night.

This also made him especially curious about Mahjong.

Liang Youxiao chuckled and said, "Of course it's fun. Otherwise, why would my grandparents like it?

"There are four of us. I'll play with you guys for a few rounds for you to get a hang of it."

Xi Rui came for this. "Then let's go!"

So the four of them began to play Mahjong.

There was little entertainment in ancient times.

Unsurprisingly, Xi Rui and the other two also fell in love with Mahjong.

Then, Liang Youxiao took out a deck of poker cards and taught them how to play doudizhu and zhajinhua.

Xi Rui preferred zhajinhua over Mahjong.

He felt that it was more exciting, even though he had already lost a few hundred taels of silver to Liang Youxiao.
