In other words, from now on, as long as someone discards a nine ten-thousand, she wins!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, such a \"Heavenly Listen\" hand, known as a direct call, can fetch the highest multiplier!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, she excitedly flipped all her tiles face down and said with thrill, \"I'm ready to win!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lian said in surprise, \"That's amazing, sister Ma Lan, a 'Heavenly Listen' right off the bat?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\" Ma Lan said, unable to hide her smile, \"I don't know what's going on, but my luck is exceptionally good today!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lian nodded and said, \"It seems it's destined for you to win money today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, He Lian, who was the dealer, finished organizing her tiles, flipped over four of them, and said, \"Concealed Kong!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Lan said in surprise, \"Oh my, sister Lian, you have a Concealed Kong right after drawing; that's impressive!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lian laughed, \"You haven't seen my other tiles; they're terrible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Lan reminded her, \"By the way, sister Lian, if you're ready to win, you have to reveal your Concealed Kong!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That goes without saying!\" He Lian nodded and said with a smile, \"If I'm ready to win, I'll definitely show it to you, don't worry!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Ma Lan had already called a win, she could no longer change her hand; she had to discard whatever she drew until she either won by self-draw or someone else discarded the winning tile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she didn't know that at this moment, the Concealed Kong tile He Lian had was the nine ten-thousand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as for the four six ten-thousands, Qian Hongyan and Niu Guimin each had two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Ma Lan was anxiously drawing and discarding, He Lian suddenly said with a smile, \"Oh my, I'm ready to win too!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, she casually flipped over the four tiles of her Concealed Kong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ma Lan saw these four tiles, she suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What bad luck!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lian actually had a Concealed Kong of nine ten-thousands! No wonder she hadn't been able to draw a nine ten-thousand for so long, and no one had discarded one either!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While feeling depressed, Ma Lan couldn't help but think that although the nine ten-thousands were gone, not a single six ten-thousand had been discarded yet, which meant she still had a chance!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She really wanted to give Qian Hongyan a signal to let her discard a six ten-thousand for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, upon closer thought, the mahjong they were playing meant winning from all three players on a self-draw, but only from the one who discarded the tile if they provided it. If she let Qian Hongyan discard a six ten-thousand to let her win, Qian Hongyan wouldn't pay her, so wouldn't this great hand be for nothing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So she decided to rely on herself or someone else discarding the tile, not on Qian Hongyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Qian Hongyan discarded a six ten-thousand herself, then sorry, Qian Hongyan would have to pay her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When it was Ma Lan's turn to draw again, she felt it was a ten-thousand as soon as she touched it. She was instantly excited, but when she flipped it over, she was extremely disappointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was an eight ten-thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bad luck!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it had been a little smaller, and she had drawn a six ten-thousand, she would have won by self-draw!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, it would be six hundred and forty thousand from each player, nearly two million in total!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Ma Lan comforted herself, thinking that if the eight ten-thousand had come, could the six ten-thousand be far behind?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, she casually discarded the eight ten-thousand and said, \"Eight ten-thousand!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I win!\" He Lian pushed over her tiles all at once and said excitedly, \"I'm waiting for a five or eight ten-thousand, Full Flush, Concealed Hand, plus a Concealed Kong, for a total of forty-eight times the stake, which is four hundred and eighty thousand. Sister Ma Lan, sorry about that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Lan felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A single discard cost her four hundred and eighty thousand?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had spent ages winning over three hundred thousand, and not only was it all gone in this one hand, but she was also down another hundred thousand or so...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was over a hundred thousand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Lan felt terrible, and her entire mental state was on the verge of collapse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qian Hongyan, who was on the side, hurriedly comforted her, \"Oh Ma Lan, how can you win all the time when playing cards? You've already won so many hands, losing one doesn't matter. Win another one and you'll get it back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lian also smiled and said, \"That's right, it's just one hand, we still have many rounds to play today!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did Ma Lan feel slightly better, but she was still determined to win back the money she had lost!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately, she used her mobile banking to pay He Lian the four hundred and eighty thousand, and the game continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in the next hand, Ma Lan was even more devastated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she flipped them over, what kind of trash tiles were these!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were missing ones or nines, and she was missing a whole suit; she had a hand full of dots and bamboos, and not even a single pair!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To get a winning hand with tiles like these, she would need to draw at least seven or eight more tiles...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was about to have a breakdown!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How was she supposed to play this?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was likely that the others would have already won before she even managed to assemble two sets!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the other three at the table were all full of excitement, looking as if their hands were quite good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first to call a win was Qian Hongyan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then it was He Lian and Niu Guimin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching all three of them call a win, Ma Lan was anxious and frantic, afraid of discarding a winning tile, and afraid that one of them would win by self-draw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that her hand had less and less hope, Ma Lan became even more anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, she reached out and drew a one-bamboo, thinking this tile was likely safe, so she tossed it out and said, \"One-bamboo! You all shouldn't need this, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Niu Guimin on the side said excitedly, \"Haha, I win! Seven Pairs!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qian Hongyan said somewhat apologetically, \"Oh, I win too! Small Three Dragons...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lian smiled at this moment and said, \"Oh my, I win too, Thirteen Orphans!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Ma Lan looked at the three hands, they were all winning on the one-bamboo!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a \"one discard, three wins\" for her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a disaster...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just from this one hand, Ma Lan lost one hundred and eighty times the stake, which was one million eight hundred thousand!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Lan felt the world spinning around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was going on? She had suddenly lost two hands in a row, and in those two hands, she had lost over two million; this was too ruthless!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Ma Lan didn't have much money now; all her savings combined only amounted to a little over two million. Calculating it this way, she had at most two or three hundred thousand left...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ma Lan was beyond tears, but Niu Guimin was already urging her, \"Sister Ma Lan, let's settle the account first so we can continue to the next hand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that she had to settle the account, Ma Lan's expression was extremely ugly. One hand cost one million eight hundred thousand; how could she bear to pay it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other three exchanged glances, and Qian Hongyan came out to persuade her, saying, \"Ma Lan, losing two hands really doesn't matter. If you're lucky, you'll win it back in two more hands. If you stop playing now, what you've lost will never come back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she spoke, she added, \"Last time we played together, Guimin also lost two or three million, but in the last hand, she won by self-draw with Four Concealed Triplets and won two million, and then immediately won another two million with a self-draw of Big Three Dragons. She made a huge profit all at once!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1497,"2026-06-17T16:51:27.253Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","728b45422b7874d5f4feb827b2da0881dc362217a05571547c616e0338668735","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-304","the-dragon-son-in-law-chapter-302",1000,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dragon-son-in-law-cover.jpg"]
