Yang Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he was being doubted after giving her pointers. He nodded to Murphy helplessly.
Murphy opened the card that he was talking about. As expected, the two cards became a pair! She immediately picked up the two cards happily and put them in front of her, as if she was afraid that others wouldn't give it to her. She happily explained to Xi Xi, "Look, Xi Xi and Mom have become a pair. We are in the lead!"
Seeing that Murphy was as happy as a child, Yang Yi couldn't help but smile. He had completely lost the idea of winning the game.
While Yang Yi and Murphy were playing cards, the waiter served the dishes one after another.
"Put it there, wait a minute!" Murphy held a stack of cards in her hand and hurriedly pointed to the empty table next to her.
She hadn't played enough yet! Moreover, she still had to play with Xi Xi and the others later … How could she eat now?
"Put it there, we will serve the dishes ourselves later," Yang Yi had to stand up and apologetically nodded to the waiter and said.
…
In this round, Murphy's luck was pretty good, and Yang Yi secretly let her win by flipping the cards that he didn't flip, so Murphy won in the end!
"Xi Xi, do you understand?" Murphy asked as she looked at her daughter after she finished cheering.
"I understand, but, but if on this card, there are Sister Elsa, Sister Anna, Baby Snow, Ding Dang, Manny (a character from the Ice Age), Little Squirrel …" The little girl counted and said regretfully, "If there are so many that I like, then it would be even better!"
Yang Yi smiled and said, "Sure, I'll get someone to get you a deck of cards of our own."
Not only that, Yang Yi thought that if the children liked playing this game, he could also get some word cards for Lan Xin to learn, some poetry cards for Xi Xi to read, or some object cards for Tong Tong to learn more words …
However, Mo Fei couldn't wait for the new card now. She enthusiastically asked Xixi to play a round with her, "Xixi, you can try it first. Let's see if your luck is as good as mommy's. Let's play a round, and then we will have dinner!"
"Okay then!" Xi Xi didn't mind. She straightened her little chest and pressed her two little arms on the table, blinking her eyes with interest.
Tong Tong's attention had long been attracted by the dishes on the table next to him. The little guy looked over there eagerly. He also looked left and right at the decorations in the restaurant, and the waiters in white and black pants walking around with trays of food. It seemed that those dishes were even more interesting!
Yang Yi smiled and helped Murphy and Xi Xi shuffle the cards, then placed them on the table one by one.
Of course, Yang Yi didn't cheat last time. When he played games with his family, he wouldn't cheat so shamelessly. Even this time, when he was the referee, Yang Yi deliberately didn't remember the cards, so most of the cards on the table were still unknown.
There were exceptions. For example, there were two cards that Yang Yi had just let Tong Tong play with. Tong Tong pinched the edge of the cards, so it wasn't particularly obvious. However, what was Yang Yi's eyes? He only needed a slight glance to know what cards they were!
"You and Xi Xi, who's first?" Yang Yi asked with a smile. "How about a rock-paper-scissors game? Whoever wins will flip the cards first."
"Okay!" Xi Xi answered crisply. She even actively hid her two little clenched fists behind her back, ready to play rock-paper-scissors with her mother.
Murphy, like before, generously let Xi Xi flip the cards first.
These little twists and turns didn't need to be repeated. In the first few rounds, Murphy and Xi Xi didn't flip the same cards. Xi Xi was even more unfamiliar with the cards, so she asked her father every time she flipped a card, "Papa, look, look, is mine okay?"
"You have to flip two cards the same to get your own." Yang Yi patiently guided her, "Now you can't flip your cards, but you can't hide them. You have to flip them. Everyone has to see what cards you've flipped before you can put them back."
"Okay then …"
Murphy looked at Yang Yi's "bias" in guiding her daughter, and she secretly curled her lips. Don't think that Murphy was jealous. This girl played with confidence, and she proudly muttered in her heart, "Humph, you let your papa be the military counselor. Do you think you can beat Mom? You're too naive! "
It was Murphy's turn. Murphy had her own "unique skill". She stretched out her hand and stroked the surface of the cards on the table, and her mouth moved. Although she didn't say anything, she said in her heart, "Pick the soldiers, pick the generals, pick the generals, pick the soldiers, pick the generals, pick the big watermelon Yang Yi …"
But this time, luck seemed to be a little out of touch with Murphy. On the contrary, Xi Xi's luck was very good. She was the first to flip two cards that were the same.
"Can I really take them back?" Xi Xi felt a sense of accomplishment. She happily grabbed the two cards, put them in front of her, and looked at her father with a little uncertainty.
"Of course, put them in front of you. When the game is over, you have to count who won more cards." Yang Yi said with a smile.
Murphy looked at Xi Xi. She didn't care much and calmly prepared to flip the cards, muttering in her heart, "It's okay, we can also catch up later!"
But in the next round, Xi Xi flipped the same cards again. Moreover, the little girl didn't rely on luck this time. When she flipped the first card, she was stunned for a moment. She hesitantly turned her head to look at her father and asked as usual, "PaPa, PaPa, look, I seem to have seen this big monk before!"
"Yes, think about it, where did you flip it? Find it! "Yang Yi looked at Xi Xi with a smile and encouraged her.
There was no doubt about Xixi's memory. The little girl blinked her eyes and looked around. She reached out and flipped the card that she had flipped open two rounds ago!
"Yeah! It's really this! " Xi Xi cheered. She happily grabbed the two cards and held them in front of her chest with her two small hands.
The little girl's face was filled with a joyful smile. She pursed her lips and didn't want to laugh, but the corners of her mouth were raised. The baby fat on both sides of her cheeks was arched because of her smile. An intoxicating blush appeared on her delicate skin. Together with the little girl's pink lips, it was as if she had put on rouge, but hers was more natural and shiny! Of course, the most beautiful thing was the little girl's beautiful eyebrows. Her eyebrows were raised when she smiled, and her big eyes narrowed into two crescent moons. They were sparkling and very cute!
When her father gave her a thumbs-up and praised her, she shyly looked away and was secretly happy.
But when some people were happy, others were worried! Xi Xi kept getting the cards, but Murphy's hands were still empty. She couldn't help but feel anxious.
"Do you want to ask my husband?" Murphy struggled in her heart, but she didn't want to cheat in front of her daughter, so she had to bite the bullet and continue flipping.
In fact, Xi Xi wasn't very good, because a little girl's concentration was not as good as an adult's. She only remembered the cards that she flipped, and those that her mother flipped, she didn't see them clearly.
But in comparison, Murphy's "skills" were much worse. After one round, Xi Xi took the lead to get nine pairs of cards and won the game!
"No … Let's play another round, okay? Let's play one more round. Mom was a little unlucky just now. " Murphy looked at the pitiful three pairs of cards in her hands in disbelief. Then, she began to grasp the cards on the table tightly and looked at Xi Xi with pleading eyes.
Tong Tong was drooling as he looked at the delicious food. Xi Xi, on the other hand, was happy because she won and didn't feel hungry. She nodded at her mother and said confidently, "Okay then! Let's play one more round. I think it's quite fun! "
"Don't you want to eat?" Yang Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
At first, Yang Yi was worried that Xi Xi would throw a tantrum because she couldn't afford to lose this kind of card game, but he didn't expect … Murphy to start the "let's play one more round, okay?" mode!
"We'll eat later. Hurry up and help me deal the cards. It'll be very fast!" Murphy hurriedly handed the cards in her hands to Yang Yi and urged him.
Well, it seemed like he couldn't take her to the casino to play in the future … He couldn't even take her for a walk.
Yang Yi secretly made a note in his small notebook, shuffled the cards helplessly, and covered the cards on the table for Murphy and Xi Xi. But this time, in order to have lunch early and not let the two little guys starve, Yang Yi paid attention and memorized the position of each card.
