What do you mean by playing mahjong?

Play mahjong. This word comes from the dialects of Sichuan and Chongqing, and describes the action of mixing mahjong after playing a game of cards as "rubbing".

Mahjong is a game invented by China in ancient times. It's a brand entertainment appliance. It is a small rectangular box made of bamboo, bone or plastic, with patterns or words engraved on it. Each pair 136 (74 in some areas) has eight more cards, namely, Mei Zhu Lan Ju in spring, summer, autumn and winter, totaling 144. The rules of the game are slightly different in different regions.

Mahjong tiles mainly include "cakes (paper money)", "strips (ropes)" and "Wan (Wan Guan)". In ancient times, mahjong was mostly made of bones and bamboo backs. It can be said that mahjong tiles are actually a combination of cards and dominoes.

Playback process

Shuffle: Turn all the cards over so that they face down. Players rub cards with both hands to make them move evenly and disorderly, which is called "shuffling".

Code cards: after washing evenly, each person codes 36 cards, and two cards are stacked on top of each other to form a pier, each of which is 18 pier, which is coded into a card wall and placed in front of his house, and the four-person card wall is connected left and right to form a square.

Opening cards: In national mahjong, the dealer rolls the dice, and the points obtained by the sum of the two dice are the opening base. Take the dealer as the first, count counterclockwise, and the position of the points is the card wall for opening cards.

Counting the piers with the same number of points in turn from right to left, the dealer starts to grab two cards, and the next family draws cards in clockwise order until everyone draws 12 three times, then the dealer jumps (blocks apart) to grab the upper two cards, and others draw one card in turn. The dealer has 14 cards, and everyone else has 13 cards.
